PING!

He's feeling it. The question is will he be one of those guys that excels on his first chance in the league and fades. Also: inevitable.

Hearing D-Lo's name a lot tonight. Playing his old team must be a thing for him. Lehner needs to get up faster.

Comment One: best analysis I've seen on a message board? It might be the best I've seen anywhere. Holy cow. Comment Two: It's going to be sad when you don't have time to do these from school, work, or spending time with a person getting squelchy.

PING!

PING!

Hey Jochsie, Lindy even hit you in the head with a stick? Were you wearing a helmet? Yeah. Lucky!

I did, but that was before I knew Duke had spy cameras in the backboards of their practice gym.

In untied skates.

I dunno man, Double-dub wants it bad this year.

I have to think Ren is in the sights of upper management; she may do the right thing but her employees are running wild. Shows a lack of leadership, they need a new core.

Maybe HHDCRGDDB finally implemented the D scheme on the 9th and final whiteboard 3 weeks ago and the team is trying to learn it.

What multinational bank is in W-B?

This will be the year we don't match up well against the Rangers.

Normally, that's "done!" for our street. Yesterday they came by a few times, I was surprised.

I'm with you on writing basic HTML, but I can't imagine writing a modern web site in HTML < 5.There was a reason people used flash back in the day, it was way easier and had more features than what you could do with HTML.

The raspy low vocal register, commonly associated with young women in the past bunch of years. It's probably something you're completely used to but didn't know it had a name. Google up "faith salie vocal fry" for an informative look.

Mapping this to "real world" workplaces, I think most people have seen A> managers that haven't kept up with the times, and B> employees that do their own thing regardless of what management says. How you feel about that depends on your perspective, I suppose. In my industry, Bylsma would be the manager that sticks to mandating that the company's web presence be Adobe Flash-based because the hardest thing for a web developer to do (10 years ago) is write good HTML code. All the data showing that mobile is huge and doesn't play well with Flash would be ignored. Jack is the new hire with all these crazy HTML5 on continuous development Cloud systems ideas that can't get his head around doing the way it was done 15 years ago because it doesn't seem to work on today's web. Just saw this, apropos: 75% of people leave a job due to conflicts with bosses. http://www.peoplefluent.com/blog/people-don%E2%80%99t-quit-jobs-they-quit-bosses

Max points possible: 92. Who had the Ides of March in the pool?

Oh, I see how you read that. Neither: it would be interesting to have the only Latvian and the only Kazakh players in the NHL.

At one point, the company ran some contest where you could be in one of the episodes. If I happened to be in one, I'd so want to be the bad guy. "No, it's OK to charge the wrong customer for this; I still get paid the same either way." or "Just get it out the door before the deadline, we can fix the problems later."

Are their any other Latvians in the NHL right now?

I'm still at Hodgson/Kassian being pretty close to a wash, although he's still playing (6G, 19Pis in 65 games) so I guess Vancouver won that trade. That being said, Kassian and a 5th turned into Prust for Vancouver, who is in the AHL this year. Wash, unless that 5th does something. Roy for Ott was an OK trade. Ott brought some swagger to the Sabres, and Roy hasn't done much since as far as I know. You could argue Grigorenko may have been BPA (at least based on scouting). He was projected to go higher and fell to Buffalo. I'm not sure you could say Girgensons wasn't BPA too; maybe not 5 years later, but at the time they weren't bad picks.

They're not much better, so I'm not sure you'd want that. Keith Jones is intolerable and Steve Coates is a slight downgrade to Rob Ray in analysis and homerism.
