  1. I'm not sure what you're getting at. This year's last place team has a 100% shot at second if they don't get the first pick.

    oops......I blame it on jet lag---I think its more like #29 wants #30 to win rather than someone below them--increasing its odds for eichel to slightly over 50%
  2. Not defending the idea that Thomas was better, but I'd guess the majority that voted that way probably never saw OJ play, heck some probably never seen Thomas play.

    I would further that and say that ALL who voted that way never say OJ play. Its so silly an opinion that you just have to shake your head. OJ was a generational talent. On the MOUNT RUSHMORE of running backs. Thurman was a tough excellent smart runner.

  3. Looking at the box score of his first game it looks like he centered the second line of John LeClair and Mark Recchi. Believe line one was Ziggy Palffy, Mario Lemieux and Ryan Malone.

     

    By his second game Crosby's line was playing between 30-60 seconds less than the first line. Then Lemieux got hurt and Sid was the first-line center.

     

    Chances are McEichel jumps on the first line here because we don't have a Lemiuex.

    and Lemieux was 100yrs old..so even if he didn't get hurt woulda still been Crosby at #1 that yr at some point

  4. Harold Ballard once called basketball a 'ham and egg' sport. I still have no idea what he meant.


    I still think the fix is in and Toronto wins the lottery.  :censored:

    chances are none of the bottom 3 gets McDavid. So its likely that a low % chance team is gonna end up with him.

  5. I don't think a collection of players will ever tank. The furthest down the tank would go is coaching, which is the advantage the Coyotes have over us on the home stretch. After watching the last handful of Yotes games, it's clear the strategy is not to grind out a 0-0 tie. Between forechecking heavily on the PK or attempting unorthodox and complex PP set plays, this awfully bad team is taking chances not even a highly skilled team would be successful with. I'm thinking they got the marching orders to try new things. I'm sure Tippett has envisioned some wild plays over the years and now is his time to try them. Especially if that means failing horribly. 

    that's called advanced tanking.

    ps-GV great part of CA
