  1. Anyone watch the Ted Bundy Tapes on Netflix? Pretty interesting to hear that the guy escaped twice, also that at that time serial killers were a new phenomenon to US law enforcement, so they had no idea how to go about tackling the issue
  2. Regardless of anything else you said Jame, we really have to stop thinking Tage Thompson is good, or even will be. In 41 GP last year he had 9 points, in more opportunities this year in 41 GP he has...10 points. He is bad, and will always be bad/mediocre at best
  3. I honestly think less than that. Almost all of those guys are McCabe level at best for the defenders, or a Sheary/Hecht for forwards. Maybe 1 defender and 1 forward end up 2nd pairing and top 6 IMO, the rest are JAGs
  4. Most publications had the Sabres at #1 because of Dahlin. Dahlin and Mitts are full time NHL starters; unfortunately Thompson is too, he just blows I'd say out of all the other guys you listed, we'd be lucky to get A 2nd pairing and #7 defender Two 3rd/4th liners and a top 6 forward UPL is very young. I think you have to be very realistic, even pessimistic, with your prospects. You can't assume 80% will hit, you really have to think 15% or so 'hit' as full time NHL starters, and less than that are really that impactful
  5. We can also use our 1sts to move up further in the 1st round if there's a prospect we really want
  6. I'd be curious why you're so quick to dismiss 1 and 2. Who exactly do we have in the prospect pool? And why is the expansion draft not relevant?
  7. There's a pretty solid reason for that 1) We have no prospect pool. 2) The expansion draft 3) We will have to pay guys like Skinner, Eichel, Dahlin, and possibly Mitts; 1st round picks give you cheap talent
  8. He's going to be a star. And, especially considering our sht forward (and especially, center) depth, Mitts is pretty crucial going forward; if he doesn't hit/significantly improve next year, we're kinda *****
  9. I did not know who this was, but I do now. If Philly is trading everyone it would probably be a rebuild, and a 19 year old star prospect likely isn't on the table
  10. Guhle and picks. Not sure that would do it, but Mitts is untouchable for me
  11. I like the drop pass to enter the zone. The thing I hate about our PP compared to say, someone like Calgary's, is that Calgary will use passes to the slot or down low in front to switch up the look; or like you said, behind the net
  12. At least the 2nd line wingers are finally right
  13. Good video
  14. There's no way Antonio Brown is coming here. He's been blatantly posting pictures of himself photo-shopped into 49's jerseys
  15. The 57 O/U on the SB seems like stealing money, right?
  16. Thanks d4rk. I just really want to avoid another hefty down-payment
  17. I'm not familiar with a lot of what you just said honestly So I put 3k down on it, I plan on having the car for about another 5 years after this. What's a residual? Do I have to take out a loan if I buy it? I thought I would just make monthly payments to whoever the dealership sold the car dto
  18. I have 300 miles left on my lease and it ends in May. I can't decide whether to keep it or not; I like it and considering mid-ranged fun SUVs aren't really a thing anymore, guess I'm going to just buy it. It's a 2017 Malibu btw
  19. I never understood depriving yourself from the biggest sports event of the year, one of the biggest social events of the year, and an awesome game for, well, any reason.
  20. If/when he gets in it will be because of his postseason numbers. His regular season ones aren't all that impressive
  21. As far as I know the HoF is always done by some writer's association. You'd be amazed at some of the idiots they let vote on this stuff
