  1. Danny may be playing a little lose with the times. He was signed with Philly on 7/1 (https://www.nhl.com/flyers/news/flyers-sign-center-daniel-briere-to-multiple-year-contract/c-435821) Vanek signed the offer sheet on 7/6 (https://www.hockeyfeed.com/nhl-news/on-this-day-oilers-make-50-million-offer-sheet-for-vanek).
  2. Yep. I guess Danny is under the mistaken assumption that there was forethought about the entire situation. It was a purely panic move and I'm sure doing it again, they'd have signed one of them, and perhaps if the offer sheet still came, take the firsts and run.
  3. I take it that Kane trade thread was mistaken, Joker? (there was a brief Kane for Doggie Hamilton thread post a minute ago)
  4. How is it that some guys seem to have those accidental dirty hits a lot? I'm not sure about the play referenced, but unless the receiver is super man, Mitchell probably could have just stayed on the ground and grabbed him around the legs while he was supposed to be in the air, or when the ball is mis-thrown, ends up getting mid-section or shoulders. I can't think of too many situations where jumping into a tackle makes sense. (disclaimer: I don't watch enough or have ever played football to be certain, but looking from the outside it seems like a stretch)
  5. Nothing to complain about, Sabres riding a 1-game win streak!
  6. I can't hold this in any longer. I look forward to when Pu comes; it'll mean the end of the shart.
  7. Whoops!
  8. I'd like to thank Jokertecken for the Swedish invasion and all the levity it's brought with it.
  9. Easier to clean? I'd say it's a carryover from baseball, but I think that's the wrong way around (away grey, home color/white).
  10. Youtube. Sure there's garbage, but you can also find professional performances of almost any classical music you can think of, often several versions. RosePIe took an interest in the Nutcracker ballet (from a Daniel Tiger episode), and 10 minutes later, incredibly beautiful performance that she can watch and mimic. I've been on a kick of playing various symphonies and whatnot; all stuff I've either heard or heard of in the past but now it's at my fingertips to enjoy. Incredible.
  11. FWIW, it looked a lot like a set play, and a textbook one at that. I'd be interested to see if they try to pull that on a normal PK, could be interesting.
  12. Guy that likes to spear people is mad he can't spear people any more. More at 11 with Irv and Rick.
  13. Apropos!
  14. Agreed, take some easy transportation (walk/bike/train), tailgate a bit, watch some football, then leave for some food and beverages.
  15. From another thread, but I love one of the synonyms for Drunkard: alkoholist. Hello, I'm an alcoholist by trade.
  16. Kane and Lehner for Neuvirth and Simmonds! E5! :)
  17. I wonder what MODO is going to think of this. hockey == hockey, so he's already done!
  18. Agreed. There's going to be a glut of houses on the market as boomers move out (either mortal coil or to condos/assisted).
  19. It's probably mixed in with the ice mic audio feed. At least that's how I'd do it.
  20. Jag har aldrig varit trendig förut!
  21. Maybe if Rudolph washes out of the NFL, he could help lead Santa's sleigh.
  22. Just had a thought: can you imagine the fit Steve Donner would be having (or maybe is) that the Sabres assigned the ultimate AHL vet to another team?
  23. I didn't think Ru Paul would go for that look.
