Thorner

When UPL is in position he makes a lot of saves merely by just existing, due to his size Benefits of a big tender

It’s only not a problem if slightly below average is the goal If every facet of the team was slightly below average I don’t think we’d be left in a very good spot

Crosby is a wizard, I’m sorry. Particularly on the back hand Unmatched hand eye

I love the extended convo between Krebs and Letang lol

Krebs getting his arse handed to him lol

Dealt him to FLA

Crosby leading the league in even strength points at 36. Truly insane it’s always funny seeing player ranking lists where..pretty much anyone is ranked ahead of this guy To the PP!

That was the most dynamic rush of Samuelsson’s career

Some of it is Dahlin yes but I can’t believe our best line right now is Olofsson Benson Jost lol

That’s what she said ..at first

Think Tuch gets us on the board soon

Something’s wrong with my eyes, I’m seein’ double-Zhitniks out here

Wings do look good

Our goaltending has improved to slightly below average this season Adams presumably sleeping well

Tuch grips it and rips it wide a lot, Jack used to do that a lot too. Trying to pick corners

He’s the same guy we accurately signed (unnecessarily soon, but whatever) for 4 mil. He’s a 4 million dollar D man and looks just like it

I could have miss-saw. I thought he had a couple nice stops

UPL did well at the end there to keep it tied not a bad period cackling duffmission

This latest dangerous change all started because Krebs didn’t get it deep at the line

Goat

Disagree on McDonald’s

I see Nill’s point. That’s why I posted the “100 bears” thing. While technically true, it’s still awkward wording. You are absolutely right, being better than Miller would be the “best since Hasek”. I’m just candidly exhausted by the Hasek references. Be it invoking that connotation when it comes to Levi, and the other even more annoying way: “even prime hasek doesn’t play well behind this D” saying Levi has a shot at being better than Miller honestly does seem premature to me. But it’s not untrue and im not taking my beer thingy back from Nill. He accomplished the feet of consuming that beer no more than an hour ago

I feel seen

There are over 100 bears in North America

If we miss this year Adams will have contributed to the drought more than any other single GM. It’s not about baggage, it’s about this GM delivering little change from the trend where it counts the most: actual results. The 12 going on 13 years all meld together in the macro. That’s our existence. it’s not that this excruciatingly slow rebuild is intolerable to fans because of the decade preceding. It’s that taking potentially 5 years just to make the playoffs is *far too long to be an acceptable time frame on its own*. It’s adding that already unacceptable time frame to the previous 8 years of ineptitude that makes it *historically* offensive. it’s a stupid timeline to success as is, in a vacuum, made significantly worse when viewed in context. The angst isn’t just from the context. It’s from both.
