I think the Pegulas are learning to take a more hands on approach in the day to day stuff. It seems like at the beginning they were hoping to run things the way Terry has always run his fracking ventures: hire a bunch of people and put them to work, things will sort themselves out. But this sports venture appears to have been a different animal than they expected. We've seen the problems that have come with too much of a hands-off approach, especially with the way the Sabres were being run under Murray. They also, perhaps, were taking the advice of people who shared different mindsets when it comes to how things should be run, the culture of an org, etc. They're clearly trying to establish a uniform culture (take that how you will). I think the Pegulas are getting a grasp on this business now. I think Kim taking the reigns herself is good. That kind of can-do, no BS attitude should trickle down through the ranks.

PA, etc. The token boomers in this thread who are hopelessly behind the times on these topics.

John Wawrow?

It's not surprising. They steamrolled over the only female who tried to weigh in so far because in 2018 the only perspective that matters is still a man's when it comes to topics like workplace power dynamics/abuse of power, relationships, harassment, etc. So of course it's cast doubt on Kim Pegula o'clock.

No, that's Australia.

I'm probably cancelling my TV after this series. There won't be a better one in these playoffs.

I'm not worried at all about Kim taking on the role by herself. I would be very worried if it were Terry.

Saying weird stuff that, while technically true, is perhaps not appropriate. The bar over there is imperceptibly low.

A bit Pegula-esque

I tried to read some of that thread but it made my head hurt.

Thank you for clarifying.

Yet.

Can we acknowledge that perhaps there are victims and acknowledge that trying to show some compassion is a pretty harmless presumption to make?

I don't know why you guys are nitpicking Josie's language to death here...maybe chill out a bit on the knowitallism?

Woah

Hmmmmm we could do that.

Hellebyuck is leaking tonight

This forum is basically never wrong about anything

I prefer defenders to play their off-hand side and the reason is for offensive zone pinches to maintain possession. If you're playing your off hand side you can use your body to take away the outlet pass on the boards and your stick to cover the outlet up the middle. If you're on your normal side your stick is against the boards and the middle opens up. This also works for the defensive zone. If you're transitioning from backwards to forwards skating as a player comes down the wing you use your body to keep the defender to the outside and use your stick to cover up any pass to middle or the point. The only shot you're giving him this way is a tough angle shot as he gets deeper into the zone below the circles.

Utah is the US States equivalent of the top right corner of the crazy/hot girl scale.

Correct!

We're (hopefully) going to Yellowstone and Teton in September!

In the parking lot? Yes.

Tickets bought for both shows. Those are gonna be a couple fun weeks.
