Just in case you haven’t jumped on board the Twitter bandwagon, a fresh incentive was put out there today by Michael DiLorenzo (@umassdilo), the NHL’s Director of Corporate Communciations:
When u Tweet re: NHL Game of the Week on NBC (Sun., Penguins/Red Wings); use #NHLonNBC and u may win a sub to NHL GameCenter LIVE for 08-09!
When he says to “use #NHLonNBC”, that refers to the use of hashtags, a means by which Twitter users tag their updates for a specific topic. So a typical comment might read ”Nice lead pass by Malkin, but Crosby dived on that tripping call. #NHLonNBC”. Hashtags are easily searchable, so all you have to do is sign in to Twitter, join the conversation Sunday afternoon, and you just might win!

Furious February
The Preds host 10 home games during the month of February, including two games each against the Phoenix Coyotes, St. Louis Blues and, yes, the Detroit Red Wings. For discounted Nashville Predators tickets, including steeply discounted Ticketmaster fees, to these or any other upcoming home games, take advantage of this special offer, and use the special offer code "predators".
you’re an idiot if you think that is typical.
