R2's magic wasn't there on that one. Still OT with most of PP to start sounds good.

I’ve grown to answer the question, “how are you” with “I am well”. Sometimes it gets looks. “I am good” has become customary. I assume “I am well can come off as pretentious as well.
I do, too. Though, I try to say it as humbly as possible. 🤪

I always heard "Game 7's," although the rule of plural of things like "attorneys general" should make it "Games 7." The noun is "game" and 7 is a modifier thereto.
It's likely one of those situations where the right answer will sound wrong, or at least pretentious, to most others. Another example is replying "I am he" or "this is he" when someone asks to speak to a particular person. I actually had someone "correct" me by saying "him" back.

We're talking monetary gambling, right? 'Cause I'm pretty sure we all engaged in emotional gambling the moment we chose to become fans of a team.

Sigh ... odds <> probability. Most of y'all are talking about the latter.
As for the actual probability of being selected once, it will be close to two independent draws, but not quite. It's a little higher ...
If the Sabres don't win the first draw, then the winning combinations for the team that was picked first become redraws. As such, it's as though they are removed from the draw. So, for example, if a team with a 10% chance originally (i.e., 100/1000 combinations) were picked first, then the Sabres' probability of being picked in the second draw would become 50/(1000-100) = 0.0556 (5.56%).
In total, the Sabres probability of being picked once:
0.05 + sum over all other teams{Pr[that team being picked first]*(0.05/(1-Pr[that team being picked first]))} = 10.319%

I've gone frame-by-frame, but still couldn't tell you that Arttu score. I'm willing to take his word for it, though. This frame was pretty cool:

We were outplaying them, but I went away for two minutes and came back to one goal against on their first shot. What happened?

The seasons pass is done.
There are 2 choices for the playoffs:
1) $30 for all playoff games
2) $9 for a single night of games
I want to say that there were options when you subscribed to AHLTV. My invoice says, "Regular Season and Playoffs – All-Access $104.99," so I'll be contacting someone if I don't have access.
Edit: Confirmed. I still have access.

We could trade for a Jack Eichel. I'm sure Vegas would be interested.
Sorry, wrong thread ...

Do we have any idea what they got for those trades?

It was just said on the Colorado/Blues game. Vegas has to win both games left and Dallas has to lose both in regulation in order for Vegas to make it.
Fixed. Vegas can win theirs at any point, but Dallas would have to get 0 points.

62 year coach with +2 readers and about to be fired, complains that his team uses technology too much. Are these not professional hockey players? Do they not know if it’s a useful tool or not?
Aren't many of them just very talented kids who've just recently moved out of their (host) parents' homes and are now suddenly very rich? Picture fraternity brothers at many universities. Sure, if they choose to, they would likely know how useful the iPads could be. However, many of them probably treat them like their home devices, using them as distractions/toys and, if their personality are arrogant/defensive, as excuse machines.

Geez that first shot on UPL was way too easy
but Quinn n Peterka had his back
I kinda hope R2 stays but I'm not sure how he fits on Buffalo
Big 2
That whole SO looked too easy for the shooters on both sides. Jankowski just took too long to make up his mind. Nice save by UPL to finish it, but otherwise 😬

Dang it, I'm going back to bed. Wake me when it's the 2nd.

The Amerks are barely in a playoff spot. Just .003% lead over Belleville. But only .001% behind 4th place Syracuse, .020% behind 3rd place Toronto and .032% behind 2nd place Laval.
Something doesn't add up: Rochester and Toronto both have 13 games remaining, Rochester has 2 more points (70 vs. 68), but Toronto has a higher point % (0.576 vs. 0.556). 🤨
Edit: Rochester has played 4 more games, so point % is right. Why do they have the same GR? Are teams not playing the same # of total games?

Lets face it. The winners in this deal are not gonna be the Joe six packs busting their ass to pay the mortgage on their tonawanda or west seneca home.

But they're reaping all of those intangible benefits. 🤗

I'm pretty sure it's based on +/- and faceoffs.

So, why is it that those players that are good at faceoffs don’t teach teammates how to better at it? Job security?
I think it's a skill that one has to develop over time with experience, rather than just being told what works. Crosby spent a long time specifically trying to get better at faceoffs. He was successful, but it didn't come overnight.
