(Extends arm and hand in dramatic fashion out onto wind swept ledge)
"TAKE MY HAND! GRAB ONTO IT!"
Hell no! HELL NO! What's your temperature? SHOW ME THE THERMOMETER!
I love this line from the NHL.com recap:
"The Sabres had scored one goal over their previous four games before erupting for two in the third period."
Erupting!
The Sabres erupted the way Fred Rogers erupted at his cue card man.
-
Thought the game was tonight. Totally missed it. Might be the second time in almost 40 years that's happened. I'm on the ledge. This is scary. Someone pull me back.

It would not surprise me if that was there goal. But from a long term prespective it makes little sense. Having the next superstar in Carolina would result in an increase in attendance and fan interest, but would not have the same effect as if LeBron James decided to sign with Charlotte Bobcats in terms of sponsorship revenue. If McDavid is in a Canadian Market or playing for a team close to Canada, the values of those sponsorship deals increase immensely in terms of overall dollars to the NHL.
Fair deuce. Hopefully McDavid (and Eichel!) end up exactly where they belong.
-
Qubec as Colorado and Tampa had success later, right?
Sure.
-
That makes absolutely no sense. Then again this is the NHL we are talking about so you are exactly right.
You think the league doesn't want McDavid in some non-hockey market to sell the game to the unwashed masses?

not a huge endorsement of tanking.

Yeah I think Flynn was just playing Ennis' role in practice. The diminutive one will be in Flynn's place during the game.
By cynic you mean paranoid conspiracy theorist
With an agenda, in a tinfoil hat, with a hatchet, in the man cave.
This is the part that pisses me off. You go all last year sucking ass to get in position to draft Reinhart. The kid has 9 games and you bury him on the 4th line. If he is that bad just send him back now.
Different GM, different coach - same ludicrous decisions. When the f will they learn??
Maybe it tells you who is wielding power in this "flat management structure."
-
I hope the NHL steps in and somehow screws Carolina. Such a waste it would be if McDavid went there.
Of course that's probably exactly where they want him.
-
I think this is the game where goaltending falls apart. San Jose while their W-L record is pedestrian early in the season, is an offensive juggernaut.
San Jose 8 Buffalo 1.
Actually, it is quite amazing that this team hasn't been blown out more the past calendar year. Or blown out much at all, actually.
-
Samson on the 4th line, eh?
How could they possibly be doing the same ####show BS as they did with Grigorenko. Some things never change. It's comforting in a way.
It's easy to see with that lineup why we may actually go wire-to-wire leading the CHL.
A cynic might say this is what tight-fisted, small-market teams do. Demoralize the goal-scorers. They cost money.

Last year I was Casey Jones, since I had a bunch of hockey equipment laying around, including the old-school mask. It's my easy go-to. Or a pin up girl because it's really simple to throw together last minute. I have way too many vintage-y looking dresses.
This year I'm going to attempt being a crafty person (I am not at all) and be a crow. Why a crow? Again, kinda simple, just all black with a black wig and such and then the wings. I'm making them out of felt, will have loops that will attach to my wrists/arms. I'll cut it so there's feathers and a tail, and then I'll paint the delineations on.
Kinda like this but a crow. I saw it said, hey that's kinda cool and not typical girl halloween costume, and I could paint it easy.
Costume party at work, I'm sure I'll be the lamest there. My coworkers sometimes go all out. Sometimes.
Also.... Any excuse to embarrass d4rk. This is an example of our last minute costumes. Pin up and washed up hockey hack. That's a wig on him I swear.
Arrrrrrr, d4rk looks downright scurvy. Could use some Vitamin C! Look like Vitamin D is not a problem. Heyoooo.

Actually, there is no party, no celebration, no traditional feast / food and nothing special for the hookah - many Muslims frown upon the hookah anyway, but many don't. It really is just a time for private reflection.
Well, that can be joyous.

without the savant.

Carolina jumps out to 2 0 lead
Check that 3 0. Calgary playing their way out of the chl.
I'm new to the CHL. Does this mean Carolina is losing 3-0 on the scoreboard?
-
Isles stepped up and played a nice game in Boston. But they lose another player to injury, Josh Bailey broken hand. Johnson played well and could beat out Halak eventually for the starting spot. Imagine them with good goaltending. The weird thing about the Isles is how they fall apart with the lead late in games. They were absolutely under siege late in this one.
That link is dead ........
So is Harry Caray.

Well what if Bob got bit and gained some protection from something in the water? I really don't think it takes this long for people to turn.

CHL announces corpse of Harry Carrion to call selected games on CHLN.

Lone gunman. Not "numerous shooters." Shocker.
I'm sure I'll be out on a limb with this, but maybe when things like this happen the response of a society should be more matter of fact. How many crazies out there are spurred on by the attention that an act of violence can generate? There's also just the slightest whiff of public relations and marketing in the air at times like this.
-
Well, I could have gone without "Bettman" and "hole" appearing back to back.

But will our opponents be drafting the Niagara defense?

Now Halifax is on lock down with stories of another crazy wandering around downtown with a rifle. Story not confirmed. Hopefully they have shut down the ferry service between Halifax and Dartmouth ... I work on the Dartmouth side of the harbour and we do not need any more crazies on this side.
Yesterday our entire military presence (Halifax is a major military town) was put on high alert and our Atlantic Fleet ( :w00t: ) put out to sea ... all the ships that were sea worthy that is. Wholly over reaction Batman.
Not exactly sure where / what my complain is, but ...
Well hopefully Canada keeps its wits about it and doesn't turn into America North.

One gunman is dead, but parts of Canada's capital remain on lockdown as police hunt for more suspects.
At a press conference, police said the situation was "ongoing" and "fluid".
Has a "second gunman" ever been found?

How is it that no one has a Statue of McDavid avatar yet?

Good thought. And maybe it explains the lack of a "system." What good are notebooks if you can't read?
