  1. Lehner. Starts. Tomorrow.
  2. There are a few bugs. The rollout was a disaster, and the iOS app is a hot mess, but in general the improvement in video quality has been worth it. I would expect the kinks to be worked out in due course. Adding a bit of intrigue, I just got my renewal notice for MLB.tv. They dropped the price $20 for 2016. I'll be real interested to see what the NHL charges for next year...
  3. PK Subban can eat a bag of.... Well, we all know....
  4. Hot Take: that last one was bad goaltending.
  5. Someone should explain backchecking to Eichel. Soon.
  6. FWIW, I took a massive pay cut almost exactly two years ago to escape my previous job and take my current one. Positives: I no longer want to shoot myself in the face on a daily basis and with my wife's support and blessing we're still living indoors and eating regularly. Negatives: Losing 25% of my salary hurt, no mistaking that. Outcome: Mental health and personal satisfaction outweigh the slimmer wallet. For me, anyway. If money were to become an issue, as you've indicated it is for you, then the scales might just tip the other way, though. It's a tough spot. Hopefully you end up in a good spot.

  9. Athletic ability, at the elite level, is a commodity with a short shelf-life. Anybody good enough to pursue pro sports should do so at the earliest point possible. College / Junior is all well and good, but an athlete is only ever one catastrophic injury away from having the door closed forever. If you can play, and earn as much as you can, do it. If the individual is not mature enough to handle it, the flameout happens regardless. How many of us know people who lasted one year in college max? I can't understand questioning any kid whose is demonstrably capable from doing what's best for him, career-wise. Any team, or school for that matter, would come at it from the opposite angle.
  10. Speaking of Stafford, he just took a 1-game suspension for a fantastic high-stick against Colorado. It was straight out of Kill Bill, full marks. Edit: Whoops. In late.
  11. That is just perfect. High-sticking is the only thing he could have called it that would have been more ridiculous.

  13. Because McGinn does not play for the Bruins...
  14. If this was baseball I'd be finishing this game under protest
  15. Welp. Had Franson not done everything aside from slew-footing Lehner and putting the puck in his own net for Boston's goal, this is a shutout and a win. Here's hoping the good guys can sneak the extra point...
  16. How the is that not a penalty shot?
  17. At least he didn't hit himself,in the face with his own stick. Which I think he's entirely capable of.
  18. Lehner hung himself out to dry there. Got lucky. The second one was a good stop...
  19. Just watched the Jason Wolley goal on the "Greatest Plays in Sabres History" segment. Fun fact, I had forgotten all about Vaclav Varada until I saw him just now.... Alright boys. Punch somebody. Or score a goal.
  20. I'm sure Jack Edwards will condem this accordingly...
  21. Nice goal by Samson. Chara is a bit ponderous out there at this point. I mourn that not...
  22. Perhaps I worded it poorly. Instead of "people" I should have input "two guys on this forum, one of whom is never allowed to come back"
  23. Watching Rangers-Flyers. Evidently, Wayne Simmonds got a match penalty for knocking out Ryan McDonagh with a bit of a sucker punch. McDonagh, for his part, gets 4 for slashing/high-sticking. All of this ignores that McDonagh started it with what looked to be a fairly deliberate corss-check to Simmonds' head. I really can't figure out how these games are called.
