I was about to post something similar. He at least needs to be escorted out, but not before his thumbs are broken.

"Chad Johnson not able to make the save." Thanks, Rob.

Hoo boy...

It's been bandied about in other threads as well. No clue what, other than armchair analysis of on-ice body language, the basis for it is.

That one counts.

Or we could just not descend further into abject nonsense and end games in ties.

IIRC, Risto had his back turned to the hit when it happened, then by the time he spun around KO was already on the way up. I can't remember who else was on the ice, but I think it would have gone differently had he seen it at the time.

Good god, that's an apt comparison. Oh, and also: dude has no ability to comprehend the offside rule. Enjoy watching the linesmen do flag girl routines...

As an arsenal fan who's dealt with him for almost 12 years... this is how it will be at random intervals between long stretches of watching him run fast in a straight line and not do much else...

https://twitter.com/mesutozil1088/status/958753705775583233 There's no way he gets away with that if he hasn't signed. That is a big deal. This window has been interesting from an Arsenal point of view. I think there's an absolute bloodbath coming in June, up to and including the manager. Ozil doesn't sign on if he isn't promised some major changes, IMO.

It bothers me that there's (and by no means am I calling you out, the NHL itself clearly agrees with you) a belief that a hit should always be judged on the outcome/injury as opposed to the actual conduct of the player delivering the hit. That same exact play could have ended in serious injury. It didn't this time. But as long as players face no real consequences for the many dirty as plays that don't happen to injure anybody, guys will keep getting injured because those dirty hits keep coming. This is a good point.

Every team needs one or two of these guys. When you have them in the top 6... that's an issue.

Erm.. how much do you know about the history of Texas? Slavery is the only reason it exists.

Just finished the game on delay. Hall shouldn't have been out there to score the game winner. It doesn't matter that KO wasn't hurt. He went to the boards to play the puck. Hall had KO's back to him before he even moved to make the hit. If player safety is actually a thing, that nonsense needs to go. I said (to my dog) at the start of the third that if the Sabres get a shot on net from the point the world will come to a grinding halt. I counted two after that, one of which went in. Against a goalie with the rebound control of a fungo bat, that's not good enough. The last fifteen minutes of the first period were excellent. The rest of the game, not so much. Miles Wood is an awesome porn stage name. Please tell me his middle name starts with an O. Also, he absolutely abused Risto for his goal. Not a good look, 55.

It is absolutely an urban/rural thing. Holds true in every single state.

No.

From what I've read it's a "we'd like to flee Brooklyn altogether but renovations to the Nassau Coliseum reduced seating to 13,000" kind of issue. 12 games there next year. Increases the next two.

You are right to have concerns...

Have just seen several stories that the Islanders are going to split games between Brooklyn and Nassau for the next three years. This seems... odd. Didn’t Carolina split games between Raleigh and Greensboro years ago? Or am I making that up?

Not unless XGMTM gets another gig somewhere.

I mean, dollar for dollar Little Cesar's at least gives you the ingredients of pizza heated near each other... dominoes has stepped their game up. Papa John can die having his own "thing he calls pizza" shoved down his throat..

I mean, do what you want. Your everything is horrible..look Eichel wasn't trying in the All-Star Game... attack is weaker than your usual weak attacks on the team (mostly, oh, hey, bad team lost to a better team....). Just know that literally everyone rolls their eyes whenever your avatar roll up. Before the words.

That book is closed, 34 games short of Geordie Howe... Ouch. Maybe the first foray into the KHL wasn't a god idea... (actually, totally was, based on his gambling debts and who he owed them to)...

Dude. Coming from me: a guy who went for the throat at all times in a thread we'll never talk about again... delete your account.

In a word: yes.
