Keon Coleman has a high max speed as well.

And lose which asset for nothing?

What about Jarmo Kekalainen?

Matthew Fairburn of the Athletic says Adams and Kekalainen work in tandem. It's not like he's "lurking over his shoulder." If anything a succession plan is in the works.

Are you in the 99th percentile?

I agree Dunne is the most likely, they could also choose to stick with 2 goalies like any other rational franchise.

Couldn't quickly find it, but here's a great reenactment by a kid.

Did you notice in a recent NHL promo that a player threw (or maybe it was a "spit wad") something at the back of Eichel's neck, prompting a Jack eyeroll? Thought that was a little edgy but funny.

That twitter suck

Write down the date lol. We agree. I have no issue with the arena. I SMH at people saying we need a new one or need to put 100s of millions into the old one. The pavilion could use a rethinking. Same for Alumni Plaza. The curb appeal out front is meh. That's 10 grand tops lol.

I can skate too

I feel like the Grand Canyon sized chasm is the IQ. Malenstyn can skate... His hands aren't great, but it's the vision he lacks most. I sometimes think Scooby Doo and the gang are going to show up on the ice someday, demask him, and reveal Zemgus Girgensons hiding underneath.

I go to games all the time and I never feel like the building is a dump. It's a hockey arena. It does the job. I've been to other arenas, some nicer than others. TD Garden in Boston is nice but that's mostly due to the upgrades outside the arena. Tampa is great with their outdoor patios. The Panthers barn is meh and in a terrible location.

ESPN's latest power rankings puts the pats at #2 and bills at #10. Feels valid given how the teams have performed thus far in the regular season. In a must-win or playoff game though, if I was a betting man, I would still take the Bills to win it.

Soft tissue injuries are just a different animal, once you get a lot of them then yes you typically have more laxity in ligaments and etc etc. Not impossible to heal but a bone vs soft tissue is truly apple vs orange.

played with/against countless pros over the years... from summer league in Buffalo in the early 90's with guys like Mogilny, Turgeon, Andreychuck, Marchant, GMKA.... to present day beer league in orange county with guys like Bieksa, Friesen, May, Yake, Upshall, Blum and young local kids like the Buium brothers, Trevor Connelly, R Johnson, etc. what separates the best of the best is their compete level. for them they just cannot turn it off, doesn't matter if it's a 10-1 game at 1a on a Tuesday or game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. you'd think, oh this guy is 50 years old now and playing beer league... he's won stanley cups! why the ***** is he trying so hard out here 🤣 i've talked to those guys about it and dialing it down is not even an option. it's just how they're wired. all of them are immensely talented, but not all of them have that "must win at any cost, all the time no matter what" mentality. ...it's when you pair up the freakishly athletic and talented with that obsessive compete level you end up with the top players in the world.

The response you were looking for is “what could Kevyn Adams have even done?”

Legitimately had to check the standings again after reading through this thread with my coffee we are in TWENTY-SEVENTH (27th!) place. There’s always a little bit of tongue in cheek when I say expectations have reached bottom of the barrel low, but from now on there shall be no tongue at all. things are never going to change.

Yes, what an appropriate punishment that would be. 🙄

Possibly, although I've had a glass shatter just sitting on the table.. sometimes strange stuff just happens.

He sprained his upper or lower body. He also "has a knee" or something

Did we ever actually find out what happened to Norris?

Throwback to the ‘dis or dat’ filter that SDS put on and laughs ensued.

Jack Eichel's neck appears to be holding up just fine. Sidney Crosby seems to have been okay. I'm not going to put any player into a bucket as it really depends on the injuries and what's done to treat them. Not sure if we know enough to make a statement on what will or won't happen.

This site has set a filter to automatically add the umlaut to the O whenever Östlund's name is typed. Similar to the way how if you misspell Pominville it still corrects it to Pomminstein. So, no need to copy and paste to get Östlund done up the way they spell it in Sweden. 😉
