  1. Could be an issue for Bob’s rhythm. If he comes back down to earth, Florida is toast
  2. He absolutely should have stopped the 3rd goal regardless, the flow of play was about even and the shots were close Eichel is their best player Like just for the record. He was in the regular season, and he’s the betting favourite on that team for the Conn Smythe right now you are definitely correct depth is everything. Anyone that has to be THE guy is set up to fail. No matter the team
  3. I don’t really think the burden is on fans to detail examples when we don’t have the connections and resources the GM does. All a fan can do is judge their team relative to the work of other teams. Someone who knows *literally nothing* about GMing or hockey can still expect an average performance from their GM relative to other GMs. They are the professionals - it’s their job. Fans are the consumer and can expect better regardless of whether they themselves can detail solutions...direct the film...edit the special effects, etc etc They create the product. We determine if the product meets market standard
  4. It’s a series.
  5. Hintz is so good. Don’t watch a lot of him Hard work forecheck set-up from Eichel for first Vegas goal.
  6. Swayman played in 37 games last year while Ullmark put up a vezina caliber season, Ullmark played in 49. Levi at any level has never played more that 37 in a season, so there will be a transition period to the NHL purely revolving around usage, regardless of skill level adjustments. We saw for example how much Comrie’s numbers suffered when trying to expand his sample size. How many games do you predict/think KA expects Levi to start, next season? What’s a reasonable expectation? Are you comfortable with a combination of UPL and Comrie starting, probably at the very least, 37 games? I think you are correct in your analysis that KA probably is. Would you yourself be comfortable with a usage breakdown that is going to lean heavily on at least 2 of those goalies?
  7. Bichette having a fantastic year, though. Has *16 more* hits than anyone else in AL. Leads Jays in OPS, AVG (.335), Runs, RBI, HR, and Hits (76). A bright spot for sure so far. Gotta find a way to lock him up LT.
  8. What a tough stretch....
  9. What an upset by the Germans
  10. Wear them. Come on now.
  11. Any other Harry Potter fans? My ranking of the 8 films (it alternates) 1 Half-Blood Prince 2 Prisoner of Azkaban 3 Order of the Phoenix 4 Deathly Hallows - Part 1 5 Deathly Hallows - Part 2 6 Philosopher’s Stone 7 Chamber of Secrets 8 Goblet of Fire
  12. Ya. And the first 4 were on Prime. Kinda weird
  13. It’s somewhat satisfying even though they aren’t here that Reinhart and Eichel have proven to be players that elevate in the playoffs, contrary to their Leaf counterparts. Dunno why, considering they aren’t even here, but somehow it is. Equity from previous Sabres vs Leafs debates I guess
  14. Taking about consensus rankings and whether we “reached” is a good way to Bat signal @dudacekif you feel like losing an argument
  15. Love Yellowstone and the spin offs
  16. Diet/exercise?
  17. I don’t really like jackets
  18. Kinda looks like a Rook The Green Jacket, man Also NBA people do say Larry O’Brien a ton
  19. I didn’t even pay attention to the EK stuff haha
  20. More people know what the Cy Young is than the Stanley cup.
  21. This is what people think Hellebuyck will cost. And most of the replies scoff at paying even that
