I was just in Manhattan last weekend.

Don't bother with ESPN - they only carry their own networks, so they won't show any hockey at all. The World Series was on, but 99% of the people were only interested in College Football.

We went to the Leafs - Rangers game at MSG. We went to an Italian rest/sports bar across the street. It was full of Ranger fans, but again most of the TVs were tuned to college football. I forget the name of the place, but it might be the best bet ( I think it was Cafe 31st 220 W. 31st St. (between 7th & 8th Ave.) New York, NY across from The Garden). . .

This place was fun:

Jeremy's Ale House, 228 Front Street, between Beekman Street and Peck Slip (there are bras all over the ceiling for some reason)

Nothing can keep devoted fans of Jeremy's Ale House away from its 32-ounce Styrofoam buckets of beer, which keep the copious suds remarkably cold from start to finish. So on June 16, when Jeremy's officially relocated from its old warehouse on 254 Front Street to equally spacious, if not exactly improved, digs down the block, the fishermen, finance kids, and construction workers followed. The move marks Jeremy's fifth South Street Seaport location (its fourth on Front Street) since opening in 1974. "I call it 'the oldest established permanent floating saloon in New York,'" laughs owner Jeremy Holin. Also along for the ride: Fried clams bordering on bar-food perfection, the famed "Eye Opener" special (8 a.m.-10 a.m.; $1.75 buckets of Coors), and the sign reading, "At Jeremy's Ale House, you always get a little head." The only irreplaceable item: 254 Front's poignant, makeshift 9/11 memorial ("We lost a lot of friends," explains Holin), which is being torn down, along with the building. As for the bras that brandished the old space, new ones are being donated. Ladies, do stop by and help the fellas out.
