Devils fans in NYC?

vikash1987 · 03-10-2012, 10:58 PM

I work in Midtown Manhattan, and wanted to find out if any Devils fans congregate at local NYC bars/pubs to watch the games?

(This is especially important to me in the event that we match up against the Rangers come playoff time, and have to deal with Rangers viewing parties.)

Many thanks.

I live in NYC on the UES. I'd be down for a viewing party or just meet up at some point. I know we have suggested it but have got it knocked down because of stupid reasons.

There is a nice core of Devils fans in my area of Queens.

I have a friend who grew up in Middle Village, Queens, huge Devils fan who now lives in Jersey.

North Brooklyn checking in.

Was at Standings (the bar above Jimmy's 43 on 7th st) a few weeks ago and they show plenty of hockey.

Asked the bartender if the owner would mind if Devil's fans made it their bar, and he seemed to think it wouldn't be a problem.

It's a small place, but a thought none the less.

Oh wow. I'm in Astoria

Northern Brooklyn also checking in. I don't have a set place. I've done it at Josie Woods, but that's usually inundated with NYU kids.

How about any viewing parties around my area? I live in downtown Nokia, in Finland. Anyone?

Jersey Man · 03-11-2012, 01:11 PM

If there would ever be a viewing party thing in the City I'd definitely try to go. Of my friends in the city I'm the only hockey fan.

vikash1987 · 03-11-2012, 01:33 PM

If there is sufficient interest on this board, I'd be willing to organize a viewing party for the upcoming 3/19 Devils-Rangers game. Let me know.

BenedictGomez · 03-11-2012, 03:12 PM

There are tons of Devils fans living in NYC.

For non-Rangers games, Flying Puck would be a solid choice as it's a "hockey bar", and one of the very few places that will play the game audio over the bars speakers rather than music. IMO, this makes a huge difference for game experience.

But it's a "Rangers bar", located right by MSG, so for......

For Devils/Rangers games, Blondies on the UWS is regarded to be perhaps the best sports bar in Manhattan.

id def be interested too, im over in nassau but id trek out to the city

Surprising to see a few Devils fans from new york on here, I thought I was the only one.

I live in central Queens, but I spend most of my free time in the flatiron district and LES so doing a bar meetup for a game wouldn't be tough.

BaysideDevilFan · 03-12-2012, 07:41 AM

I am in eastern Queens so I am close by!

Jersey Man · 03-12-2012, 10:47 AM

Never knew that there were Devils fans in Queens lol

I'd have to skip a class for a bar meet up but I don't mind.

Jamaica, Queens here.

Queens is the best borough

ClaudeLemieux22 · 03-12-2012, 05:37 PM

I would also be interested in this. My buddy and I living over in SI are big fans.

This was my philosophy all throughout college and I graduated with a 3.7, you'll be fine.

My favorite type of New Yorker...

Devils fans from the other side of the border.

I love you all.

Meh.

I'm from Jersey but left because the only reasonable thing there is the Devils and...

Well, the place is Ohio, but close to the City.

Sorry.

No worries, most rangers fans are from significantly more savage places than - Waldwick?

LikeChristmasMorning · 03-13-2012, 05:55 AM

Google maps says Waldwick is between Franklin Lakes and Alpine.

That chitt must be nice yo!
