I saw Oppenheimer yesterday and today I watched Rocky IV. So I managed to watch the beginning and the end of the Cold War.

I don’t know that if call Downey a supporting role in that one.

Only if you were able to stop in time. You’re posting this, so you probably did stop. But then again, you wouldn’t be the first to post from a hospital bed.

Wasn't there a lot of "Logan Cooley will never sign with the Coyotes" talk around here? This is another one to keep in mind when the annual fear of losing a draft pick pops up.

I feel like there's a horrible dinner scene where Akroyd may play ever single character in the family.

See, I would have guessed vampire. So you scare them off with the bright light. Wait, maybe that's a gremlin.

Is that Akroyd as a creepy old guy? I have no idea why that's actually coming to mind right now.

So it was you?

Somewhere in the ballpark of 15 years ago I almost hit now captain of team Canada Marie-Philip Poulin as she no look jaywalked in front of my car.

Autocorrect can be so strange sometimes.

It’s kind of funny. If you go to hockeydb and see the trending player searches, it’s blatantly clear that people are cheating at that game.

Why did a bunch of NFL players sign up to do an ad for soccer? I mean, I know the answer is money, but I feel like sometimes the PA needs to step in and ask if this is really in their best interest.

I just wish dealerships would cut the ***** with that first offer that is a slap in the face. I was shopping to lease a new car maybe 2 months ago. The initial offer I got was so horrible that I immediately got up and walked out. Sure, I can negotiate it down, but if they’re going to start with something that insulting and predatory, I’m not wasting another second with them. I ultimately settled on a different car, but out of curiosity I went to another dealership to check out that same car. Their initial offer for the lease was $6000 lower.

I wonder if Tony ever throws his hat back into the ring. I don't know that the Wisconsin gig is long for this world.

Good candidates? After Larson I see only one lengthy NHL career. And on a side note, why on earth do I actually remember the name Dean Sylvester?

I'm not really listening to anything out there, so I have no idea if that's the rumbling or not. I just think with everything we've seen from him over the years, he doesn't look like someone who wants to stay there.

I don't think they move out Nylander because they already know that Matthews doesn't want to stay.

We also gave Nashville a 4th round pick along with Gaustad. Don’t look up who that became.

Paging @inkman. @inkman, you have a call on the white courtesy phone.

If you're over the age of 3, you hate those evil rat birds. But anyway, I'd say back to free agency talk, but it's pretty much done at this point. Are we even past the point of teams loading up on AHL bodies?

The thing that drives me crazy the most on any conference call is how many times I hear the word “like”.

Unless that living creature is a canada goose.

There can't be too many drafts where you can say that the best player was a goalie. Who else would even be in the running, Felip Forsberg and Morgan Reilly? They're good players, but if those are the names you're mentioning as the best, that pretty much has to be one of the worst drafts ever.

Strangely enough they called a day after I posted this.

This kind of speculation is reckless and dangerous. Let it play out on its own.
