Allen is way out front of HOF RB OJ Simpson when you add rushing TDs and passing TDs. For now, OJ has the slight edge on rushing TDs plus murders.

Even the shootout effort makes me puke

This team needs Lindy Ruff circa 1998, not this new social media friendly Lindy. They are soft as all hell and need the living 💩 scared out of them.

Krebs on the 1st line is the ultimate desperation move. Highly symbolic of how we've seen this team being run since Pegula's tenure.

I've been here this long. I'm not going anywhere.

We should've just let Eichel had the damn surgery.

It's because they're playing with other quality players. We don't draft quality players.

It doesn't matter who I would have picked. That's not what I'm paid to do.

There's no way out of this other than through the draft. We've drafted so poorly for so long and traded away the two blue chips we had. Our two #1 OAs are not legit franchise players like they should be. Until we get some Pastrnaks, some Points, and some Kucherovs as later picks, we will continue to suck.

Coincidentally, I wrote most of my initial post while waiting for my daughter's tournament game to start. End of the period now.

I really hope it takes off, but I'm concerned about it's future. My daughter is 15 and has played since she was 4, but other than going to games in person, she doesn't watch women's hockey... Not even international games. Nor do any of her teammates, or their moms. Anecdotally, the only people I know that seem to care are the dads of girl hockey players.

There's rumours of expansion coming. Maybe stay on as a free agent for now.

By it's very nature actual goal % factors in shooting ability (or lack thereof). If a guy had a 48% xGF but could shoot the puck like Matthews, over time he'll always be on the right side of +/-... Well over. I like the stat that shows that player as being well over average instead of just below.

I think over a short sample size xGF% is better. Over a larger sample size where slumps and streaks work their way out, +/- or actual GF% is better. Both need to take into account linemates, matchups, O vs D zone starts, etc.

This is 100% the case. Give us Duff... He's not RJ, but he's more than serviceable and he's a fan like us.

I like Rob Ray and this just made me smile.

I boycotted this team until they were in a playoff spot. The team gets a bit hot, my buddy gets tickets and I agree to go. I come out of my boycott and witness this in person. Unbelievable!!!

All that cap space left unspent. We're in the early stages of a death spiral. People have no reason to go the rink because of the team on the ice, and the owner won't spend unless we show up. Short of a miracle superstar showing up on our doorstep through the draft, I don't see any way out of this.

Thompson hasn't done 💩 since he's been back.

You don't have to win every game... But can you at least try?!?!?!

If you're in Canada get the dino nuggets. US doesn't have plum sauce, but up here there's no better way to dip nugs.
