  1. Vanek now leading the NHL in points. Second only to Marleau in goals.
  2. Foligno's our guy who can play and fight. Sabres stand a MUCH better chance if he's a presence in both capacities tonight.
  3. Actions speak louder than words. I never put much value into post-game interviews...the guys are always tired and just want to get out of there.
  4. On an objective level, he should be ahead of RJ on the "depth chart". As a homer, I want to hear SCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE as many times as possible before he retires.
  5. The expression on my face when Stafford threw down with Hartnell can't be estimated by any of the emoticons available. Best part? It wasn't for some glaring infraction. That was a "You don't push him around" fight.
  6. This isn't how probability works...
  7. Thanks for compiling those. Nothing against the individual posters...but hockey is a funny game, and the results often don't match the input. In CoHo's first few games, he was making tape to tape passes in the opponent's zone that probably should have rendered several assists. Alas, he had none, and people declared him a bust. Now, he's playing a very similar game and the pucks happen to be hitting the back of the net.
  8. Hmmmm. I don't really know if the chart says anything about future outcomes, other than that the most likely outcome for the season is somewhere along the lines of each teams' current point percentage. Momentum is largely an illusion...with minor exceptions (like you said, health and strength of schedule being two huge ones) hockey games are discrete, independent events like coin flips, except the coin is weighted based on the make-up of each team. Sports is largely a string of arbitrary events, attached to story lines that we concoct. We celebrate the Stanley Cup winner as the greatest team in hockey, but how much is chance? A lucky stick save here, a bounce off the stanchions there, a bad injury there. If you set the playoffs in motion 100 times, does that same team emerge dominant in a plurality of cases?
  9. Funny to see how Toronto's chart is pretty much a mirror of ours since around game 35.
  10. That was a great one. Just wait 'til you get to "Come on, God". :worthy: I was in stitches during the entirety of that episode. I love how the show derives humor by examining life from honest, intriguing angles, rather than just fishing for cheap laughs like pretty much every network comedy.
  11. I realize you're just pointing out which season is available, but season 2 was miles better IMO.
  12. The most logical answer I've seen... Men want young women because they are the most virile and the most likely to deliver a healthy baby, biologically. The perkiness of a woman's breasts is an easily accessible barometer for youth (thus the push-up bra). As for the obsession with LARGE breasts? That's a cultural thing that I can't really explain...personally I prefer breasts that are proportional to the body, and can't stand implants.
  13. What? MISTER SOFTEE is evolving! Congratulations! MISTER SOFTEE evolved into ETHRON! - Will Lindy press B to cancel evolution?
  14. The Sabres just OFFICIALLY baptized the FN Center by kicking some Senator ass. F'N Fantastic.
  15. Buddy's fiance was cheating on him, he caught the bitch red handed. Just pisses me off. But now I get to call her a bitch out loud instead of just inside.
  16. I have a solution to this one. Don't pay so much attention to Justin Bieber.
  17. My vote is for Montador, regarding out best d-man so far. Paragon of consistency.
  18. What's with this team and giving up leads?
  19. I'm not one of those people who's going to dispute it because I haven't been to the Arena in a couple years. A shame if true, though.
