Doohickie

Education. He started a library science masters but couldn't handle the database course so he switched to education and worked a few years as a music teacher. He was okay with the kids but wasn't crazy about dealing with the administration so he decided to get out of education. His wife has degrees in IT and finance (also a crazy combination) and she helped him take some free online classes that got him going toward data analytics. He pretty quickly got past the level she could understand, but he was able to do it okay. He got a text this morning that said, "Evaluation - Completed: Congratulations! You have completed NKM2 Task 3: Presentation of Findings." That was his last course. They said he'd receive his diploma within a week and a half. The whole degree was online through Western Governors University. (I looked into them a bit and they are accredited and legit.)

My son was just notified that he's successfully completed the last course for his master's degree in data analytics. This is a guy who started out severely speech delayed, was in special ed in elementary school but by high school was taking AP classes. He has a BA in music and this is his second master's degree. I'm pretty impressed by the things he accomplishes.

Okay.

What time should we come over?

But you said something about big pants.

We have our suspicions but until you see them in battle you don't know. Peterka might step up; Benson may get run over. You never know.

From the JJP thread I think this applies to all of the Sabres forwards that have developed in the system. There is simply no data on them relative to the NHL playoffs. Who will be a lion and who will be a mouse?

?

Well he just scored a lovely own goal.

Playing the part of Owen Power tonight will be Thomas Harley.

But Byram's already packed up his Buffalo house, so...

Who's our green goalie? The one we won't be signing this offseason? Because the data presented in this thread suggest otherwise. That's the point of the thread.

After every single goal in the league you'll see guys standing around while the puck goes into the back of the net. There's nothing like a goal to make a defender look dumb.

Don't worry, there's plenty. 😉

It's Sabres Sluggo bad, imo.

YES. Although, yeah, the bus has left the barn.

Steve Tasker.

With speed and enough opportunities, they're going to score more, period.

That was the most inevitable goal I've ever seen. There was no way TO was going to clear the zone for the rest of the game.

I'm just so underwhelmed by this team. I'm not quite there yet, but I could see flipping over to the Stars. At least they're still playing.

Yeah, what are the odds of scoring two empty net goals and not allowing one? I wonder if that's ever happened in the playoffs? Before this season, a team erased a 2 goal deficit in Game 7 only three times in the NHL's 100+ year history. And this year it happens twice on consecutive nights. Crazy.
