    24th place < mediocre

    How much better is the connectivity? I looked closely at projectFi last year, almost took the plunge, but I love my Galaxy S6 too much to give it up and I don't have any issues with dead zones anywhere near where I live, except one rink where my kids occasionally practice... but I don't know a projectFi phone would help there anyway.

    Well, mediocre is still better than Buffalo at the moment (sans O'Reilly, Ennis, and 5 million dollar version of Matt Moulson).

    Sabres have a bunch of winnable games ahead of them. This is not one of them.

    BUF is still 5th in points lost %. They just played 2 teams below them in the standings. I still think they finish in the bottom 3 along with TOR and CGY. EDM is playing better, and so is CBS. WPG might challenge, they have a tough April.

    When the team is bad what do you want the reporters to say? Ignore the fact they suck and praise them every chance they get? I like that they call a spade a spade and don't sugarcoat everything just to appease the organization. The media should hold them accountable and they do that. I have no problem with any of them. That said, when the team starts winning and makes a playoff run they'll have something positive to say.

    The toy section was where I did all my Christmas shopping as a kid. Then fill out that form at the counter and wait to be called up.

    Dlo has drawn like 8 penalties this game. I say put him on the PP

    Eichel shoulda given that drop pass back to Kane cutting to the net.
  21. pi2000
    Thought Eichel was good last game, he just wasn't rewarded on the scoresheet. Need to see more from Bogosian. His carelessness with the puck led to McDavid's first goal, and he looked rattled ever since. Lehner has been great, just that one bad goal from McJesus, if it becomes a trend then it's a concern. Ristolainen has been quiet of late, he's due for a big game here. The problem with young players is they haven't figured out how to break of slumps yet. They press too much, a lot of times the best remedy is to just let the game come to them instead of trying to force plays.

    I'm not buying the idea that common core is simply training for college. I was encouraged to think creatively at the University I attended. Common core will help raise the overall performance of students in standardized testing, but at the expense of those who are naturally gifted with numbers.

    Well, he's getting paid like a 25 goal scorer, I think the expectations are the same. He should get more PP time next season, probably taking McGinn's spot in front of the net... I'm thinking a poor mans Andreychuk... assuming he can get his mind right.

    Yes! My 12yo son is in the advanced math group at his school. He's good at numbers and does it quickly in his head in his own way and comes up with the correct answers, however he loses a lot of credit because his explanations aren't always what the teacher is looking for. His explanations actually makes sense and he gets the right answer, but loses credit because it's not the way they were taught to do it. What this does is helps kids who are not naturally good at math by giving them a single path to the answer. However, this punishes kids who are naturally good with numbers because it forces them to think like everyone else. It drives me nuts to see my kid get so discouraged because he's losing points even though he has the correct answers. My younger boy isn't as proficient at math but is better at memorization so his math grade is likely better than it would be without common core.
