  1. Lots of people aren't sure where to go for fancy stats. Isn't the NHL itself publishing all of these stats this season?


    I'll be in the 6th row aisle seat in section directly behind goal we shoot at twice. Will I be able to see the goal line area or will the boards get in the way? Either way I'm excited about the game. I think Eichel has a coming out game of sorts.

    Even people in the front row can see the goal/goal crease. That said, IMHO, other than the excitement of being that close to the ice, low is the worst place to see a hockey game.

  2. I would have stood up and boxed people out just so he could get the puck.  I don't know how people don't speak up there.  There's zero justification, even if he was supposedly getting it for his grand kid,  Bylsma clearly wanted to the boy to have that puck and so he should have received it.

     

    If that guy was someone I knew I would chew his butt off and then stop speaking to him.  I don't want to interact with  people like that.

    There were some boos.

  3. Apologies if it's already been mentioned, but the old man stealing a puck from a kid seems to be getting a lot of play today.  It's always hilarious how bad these things make certain people look.

    The optics of that scene are so much worse than I imagined. I thought maybe they were sitting near each other and Bylsma's toss was errant or something. That really is terrible.

  4.  Are you watching the show live or are you a couple seasons behind?  Because there is some stuff you would know about this post...

    I'm up to date. Am I forgetting something about the respective wives?

    The idea for celebrity walkers is great. It got me to thinking that the walkers don't get quite enough attention. They're almost there as extras, devices to move the plot along. There have been zombie movies where they move faster, even run at great speeds, or have somewhat human characteristics. I'd like to see the walkers evolve or become more interesting. This show needs some kind of refresh. It's so formulaic. Are we going to be watching this same stuff in three years? It needs to wind down. I say the walkers start to become more human again. Resolu-she-own.

  5. Certainly not a lazy player, but those wrist shots are lazy as hell. Third Pens goal was on a sharp-angle lazy wrister that went around the boards and out. Terrible decision. 

    Yikes, now wristers are lazy. Probably Russian. I predict GMTM will be forced to trade the wrister out of town and it will eventually become the default avatar here.

     

    Keep in mind that a lazy sharp angle wrister produced Eichel's second goal of the year and one of the finest goals in recent team history. There are no lazy wristers, only wristers that miss.

  6. My thoughts:

     

     

     

     

    Glenn is dead. He'll be back as a walker. If it's any other result it's kind of dumb but whatever.

    Also - the thoughts that a sound will make the zombies leave: how do they hear sounds when Glenn is screaming and they're all like "aaaaaaaaaaaghhhhhh"? Plus, the zombies seem to exist solely to eat people. Why would they stop eating people just because they hear a sound? If that happens it's dumb. My actual guess on Glenn because I think he survives even though he's dead because who the hell isn't dead in that situation: a new character shows up and just mows down the walkers and saves Glenn.

    Rick isn't dead and he could literally just walk away from that without a problem. The walkers are slow. He could just step out of the RV and just walk in the other direction. Problem solved.

    The connections to Rick being stuck in the tank are super obvious, but I wonder what they're hinting at there. That Rick will survive? That Glenn will save rick? Rick will save Glenn?

     

     

     

    One thing this show doesn't do enough: let main characters become walkers. Your entire show is based on zombies. Let them be zombies once in a while.

     

    Also, they should totally do a celebrity cameo or two. Either have them come across a celebrity who has been hiding in their rich home (but make sure you kill them off quick because this show thrives on lesser-known individuals playing big roles) or have like George Clooney appear as a walker. Whoever it is would be playing themselves and would be gone quickly, but it would be a funny/cool cameo. The main group would just kind of laugh it off and be like "his movies sucked anyways" or whatever.

    How does Glenn not get devoured? How does he just get bit and turn?

     

    Remember the series started out with the older black guy and his son dealing with the wife/mother roaming around outside the house they were holed up in. I want to think this series has a heartwarming ending where the walkers turn back into humans, and there's a reunion. (I also maintain Carl didn't shoot his mother.)

  7. There are religious zealots,… nuclear weapons,… guns,… terrorism,… Taylor Swift,… lots o stuff, etc.

     

     

    This may finally be what convinces me that we are doomed as a species.

    I know, right? Why do you have to turn your back to the scene? Ridiculous.

  8. I overheard Hamilton whipping Larsson pretty good during a WGR segment recently -- something about how Larsson should not expect to play with top 6 players all the time (that he's doing so now because of injuries), that Larsson needs to learn and really embrace his utility role up and down the lineup (and, by implication, he has not done that yet).

     

    Hamilton seems unduly biased against the guy. I'm not sure why.

    Paul had bad Swedish meatballs once.

     

    (Edit: LTS, that's not a fat joke.)
