  1. The bonus point doesn’t go to the team that loses. It goes to the team that wins. So are we getting soft by rewarding winning?
  2. No, they just said it was like kissing your sister. But why were they even able to make that comparison, why did they know what kissing their sister was like? And then there are the people like me who don't have a sister. Was a tie always perfectly acceptable for us?
  3. While we're just making up fake standings and ignoring how the league actually works, I hate shoot outs so we should probably count that win as a loss too.
  4. I'm pretty sure it's Bowser. Ask Hoss, he knows.
  5. Or you waste all your money on the drugs needed to keep you awake all that time.
  6. I'm surprised that you didn't mention your boy Bowser from that draft.
  7. Between that and Captain Marvel, I bet he's already shot a cameo or two.
  8. And now because I'm feeling stupid, if you fumble without contact in the backfield and it hits your foot before hitting the ground, does it count as a punt?
  9. Taro pretty much nailed it. The whole purpose of adding that center would be some help for Mittlestadt. The price for that really would depend on when they decide to do it and the term that center has left. My guess is they could get away with spending a lower pick, but like you, I'm not opposed to moving one of the 1sts.
  10. If they're truly big on the whole culture thing, getting some of these young guys a taste of playoff hockey could be huge. It would go a long way towards washing away any lingering effects of years of losing hockey. They could very well find a decent piece to add to the team that wouldn't cost a 1st.
  11. Let's face it, those of you who still actually watch Bills games aren't exactly getting the cream of the crop when it comes to announce teams.
  12. So if it was 4th down, that TD would have instead been placed at the 1 yard line where Jones fumbled? Hey, that time it was a question!
  13. It's a shame that it's next to impossible to piece together an international tournament that everyone cares about. There's so much talent out there to the point that each of these teams could be a serious threat over a two week period.
  14. And he's only on an AHL contract, so if sauve's question was hinting at the possibility of him getting a call up, the answer is no.
  15. I could see them targeting a mid-roster center later in the year, someone who can fill in that 2nd/3rd line role. Who might be available at that point, I don't have the slightest clue.
  16. Rules question: I thought you weren't able to gain yardage on a fumble. Wait, that's not a question.
  17. I think it’s laughable to think that the team or Eichel would even bother to respond. I’d quote Frank Drebin and say that there’s nothing to see here, but there really is nothing to see here.
  18. Is it common place though? This specific tweet only suggests that it may have been common place back in 2011. I'm not really sure what I would consider as the cutoff point for something like this.
  19. Just once I want to see it done after an intercepted pass leads to a breakaway goal. Either that, or after one of those crazy up-ice passes that Hutton likes so much.
  20. The one thing about Skinner that I've noticed a ton of and I love is that on what seems like most of his goals, he's immediately giving the "great pass" point to whoever set him up. I'll never get sick of seeing that.
  21. I guarantee that there are people out there who have an entire database where they have saved any questionable social media comments that famous people have made, just waiting for the right moment to release one of these "stories". I find that infinitely more troubling than someone saying something stupid when they were a teenager.
  22. He knew exactly what he was doing by leaving Buffalo open as an option. Personally I think it was mostly about playing with that elite center as opposed to the city/team itself. I'm perfectly ok with that. Now we're at the point where hopefully he falls in love and continues to thrive here.
  23. His Hobey winning stat line was 26-45-71. So yeah, the goal total may be a bit down this year, but he's always primarily been a setup guy. Playing currently with a guy who is practically leading the league in goals, that assist column is going to go through the roof. But let's not kid ourselves, he'll find away to around 30 at some point, and if he can get Skinner over 40 at the same time, things are going to be very good around here.
  24. Absolutely. He’s shakey as hell right now
  25. I’d smack the kid (oops, that’s probably offensive too) and then respond “biologically, you are my son”.
