  1. She should’ve mentioned that the team mascot is a sabretooth tiger.
  2. OK. Thanks. It’s all a crapshoot anyways.
  3. Was Ostlund a reach? I went back and looked at pre-draft rankings and mock drafts and Kulich seemed to average in the low 20s with Ostlund several positions later.
  4. So, I guess they felt they needed centers?! Captain Obvious
  5. Unfortunately, it seems that analytics has ruined baseball. The hitters became focused on launch angles to hit home runs. Prior to this season, it became a game of home runs and strikeouts. Now, the change in the baseball has resulted in many of the recent big HR hitters just flying out but also still striking out a lot. Zzzzzzz!
  6. I had a college Statistics class with a professor who had a PHD. He would challenge us on exams with questions outside the class material. Luckily he marked on a curve, where a 25 got an A.
  7. There might not be as many Guidos out there as in the old days but I think they may just have been replaced by Borises, Serges and representatives of other ethnic groups. It would be naive to think that there won’t be any issues with games now or in the future.
  8. Yeah, I subscribed to the NBA League Pass and during timeouts they kept running this ad, which sounded like Ian Eagle talking, about “If you’re going to gamble, do it responsibly. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, please seek help” I thought ‘WTF?’ I don’t know if this is one you had heard, but this was disingenuous with a capital ‘D’. Does somebody really think they were doing good with this?
  9. And I appropriately got 3rd as Pasta Joe beat me in the Semis.
  10. I look at it this way, since RJ kept putting off retirement, his Sabres broadcast career went into “Ooooooooovertime”!
  11. You must be talking about the pucks into the crowd. I was 10 when the Sabres started so I fell for that too.
  12. Actually their song ‘Shining Star’ seems to be appropriate for Skinner and Tage: ”Shining Star for you to see; what your life can truly be!”
  13. First time with four 20 goal scorers since 2017-2018. Yes, COVID did shorten 2 seasons.
  14. They need Eakin as the designated face off guy.
  15. Especially since some of their opponents have started their backup goalies expecting an easy win.
  16. Adrian hockey? So, is Rocky there? ”Yo, Adrian!”
  17. So, why is it that those players that are good at faceoffs don’t teach teammates how to better at it? Job security?
  18. Golden Knights win, but lose Eichel to injury Eichel actually experienced two injury scares during this much-needed Golden Knights win. Earlier in the game, he was slow to get up after seemingly getting his neck/head bumped while he was low on the ice. Eichel was able to hang in there, though. Later on, Eichel seemed to hurt his arm/hand blocking a shot. While he made a return after quickly leaving the bench, but the Golden Knights held him out through the second period. It’s currently vaguely deemed an upper-body injury. Jesse Granger reports that Peter DeBoer didn’t have an update directly after the game. To put things mildly, the Golden Knights’ injury list is swelling like a sore wrist or knee.
  19. Earlier in that game he supposedly took a shot around the neck and shoulder and left the game for about a period.
  20. I don’t know if your line about the popular sports was legit or you were making a joke but the mention of ski jumping made me laugh, and I’m Polish. It was like: What do they call leapfrog in Poland?
  21. The Toronto homerism of the studio crew was also ridiculous. Boohoo, your goaltending sucks! Who’s this Bizz guy? Did he play in the NHL? This was a Buffalo home game at a site about equidistant from Buffalo & Toronto. They seemed like a Maple Leafs studio crew.
  22. Silly me! I expected a Vegas rout so I loaded up on Vegas players in DFS , including Eichel. Craig Anderson playing for a ticket to a contender?
