  1. This is basically Sam Girard size. Girard loses netfront battles but he's actually pretty good overall defensively because he's a great skater with a quick stick and he's also great at d-zone exits and o-zone entries. With the right partner that can be a strong middle pair guy
  2. Tim Tebow threw the best backfoot slider in the history of the NFL
  3. Just a small gesture to curry favor with MBS and the Saudi money machine
  4. The Flyers got rid of Provorov already. From what I’ve read he wasn’t very pleasant in any case and they were all sick of him. If anything I was assuming he wanted his ELC last spring and didn’t get it
  5. Z seems like more of a suumer trade to me. Anyone trading for him would probably be looking at 2C to begin with and it's tough to orient him to that in 30ish games. Rico is a much more likely target but probably consolation prize for whoever misses out on Lindholm
  6. Seems he realized they just went out and traded for a better, cheaper, younger guy to do his job
  7. Isn't X just a 44 billion dollar confirmation bias confirmation experiment?
  8. I just watched the Avs vs Bruins and can't help but think that if either one of these 2 manages to trade for Elias Lindholm they'd be the odds on Cup favorite
  9. Could be other teams looking to swap a forward for D. Maybe looking at Kent Johnson or Sillinger from Columbus and maybe even Lukas Raymond from Detroit
  10. When the Avs were healthy eary in the season they used a 3rd line of Miles Wood, Ross Colton, and Logan O'Connor. Not a lot of finishing talent but they fly up and down the ice a wreak havok. If you replace Strome with someone like Groulx they'd have a reasonable comp for that but Strome just plays too slow and too lazy along the boards to be part of a havoc crew
  11. They struggle to score these days but the D is so much better than last year. This was a lot of point shots looking for the tip that never came. After watching Stolarz all that time they should know you have to make the big guys move side to side. It's fun to watch Gudas win literally every board battle and do his best to show your kids how to play
  12. We have a God-given right to be offended by stupid shit. Who are you to take that away?
  13. Yet they still scored as many points as Iowa and Ohio State combined
  14. So are these illegals or not? It might first help to differentiate between the illegals and the asylum seekers. If they're eligible to work these cities just got a fresh load of maids, landscapers, and busboys
  15. Giving the puck to Matthews, Marner, Reilly in 3 on 3 is tough. They've been together so long it's got to be the best OT trio in hockey
  16. https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CAL/CAL197309270.shtml This was game 162 of the 1973 season. I was a 9 year old just a couple weeks into grade 4 and not really supposed to stay up that late but I listened to all 11 innings on my little radio as Nolan Ryan came out for the 11th inning and struck out Rich Reese to end the inning and record strikeout number 383, surpassing Koufax. It was his 7th consecutive complete game and he had double digit Ks in 6 of them. He finished this one allowing 4 runs in 11 innings with 16 Ks and 7 walks, 10 hits allowed Over the course of the season he faced 1355 batters with 383 Ks and 162 BBs and ended the season in a way that had me excited for the '74 season and and Angel fan for life
  17. I've never known anyone who had bad things to say about Incirlik although it's been a few years since I've known of anyone there
  18. Watched my wife and 7 yr old daughter try to eat their weight in shrimp and crabs. Watched midnight fireworks from our balcony. Asleep by 12:25
  19. Garvey wasn't even the best player on the Dodgers in '74. Jimmy Wynn was much more deserving but he didn't have a write-in campaign to get into the all star game or a Mr Clean storyline for the writers to gobble up
  20. The Republican plan is to bitch about this whenever they get a camera in their faces then to hire as many of them as they can get away with
  21. Nope. It's these damn Eurosocialists appropriating our culture
