Remember: you only play the Jets twice...

Oh, indeed it does.

Evidently this board is two minutes ahead of NHL.tv

Yes. Always ask nicely for the cocaine... Tyler Myers... yikes.

Burnett's Vodka FTW

There was no way this was not happening. Dunno what you were expecting.

I think that both guys clear waivers = both guys go straight to the AHL. It was noted upthread that the deal may have been agreed perviously and finalized once they both cleared. Sounds logical.

I'm fairly sure guys on AHL only contracts can go to the Olympics.

The Wendy's v. Wing Stop twitter rap battle happening currently is the most entertaining thing I've come across in awhile. I know it's advertising. But still...

There is actual counts-in-the-standings hockey tonight, boys and girls. Sweet.

Not sure what the case is in this particular instance, but there are currently almost 200,000 full-auto machine guns manufactured before they were outlawed and grandfathered in, registered, and perfectly legeal to own/buy/sell. That the Feds know about.

Seconded.

Yeah, I mostly posted the case as it was driving me insane thinking about it until I found it. And yes, the opinion dealt mostly with the many reasons the court below shouldn't have punted (heh, see what I did there?). Facts were as I remembered them, though. As for the kid in Mom's phone call, I don't have any facts beyond what I relayed. Either way, though, yeesh

Reading what Housley had to say on the subject today (no plans to permanently sew a letter onto anybody's sweater "in the immediate future") I wonder if he might not keep rotating the "A" into the season in order to see if anyone steps up and grabs the "C". If nobody does it, oh well. Three rotating "A's" wouldn't be any dumber than Lindy's Oprah Winfrey inspired passing the "C" around. You get a C, and you get a C....!!!!! And so on.

Pi gonna Pi.

Mouslon has a modified NTC. Not sure of the terms of that. Thanks, XGMTM!

Sad news about Strader. Brandon Pirri Released from his PTO by the Panthers.

They're currently $6.74 million under the cap. Gorges' 3.9 comes off the books. You can safely assume the entirety of this money is going to Eichel effective next year. Samson will also be due a raise. Something's going to have to give. It may well be, assuming Matty Mo cant be shifted or is bought out (shudders) either Kane or Sam. IMHO. Addendum: Also, Lehner is going to need a contract again, who knows how that ends up? If less than stellar he could feasibly me moved on as well. Then JBOT needs at least one more goalie, depending upon Ullmark's progression.

Bailey, Des, Fedun to the Roch. Goloubef shown the door entirely. I, like many, wanted Bailey to stick. He just didn't do it.

Lambert is a distasteful troll. Now that he's the only actual employee there I'm going to nope out.

Heck, when I still had cable probably six years ago, and did Center Ice, MSG was the only channel I couldn't get an HD feed from. Asshats.

Having relied on NHL.tv for years, I genuinely believe it to be an MSG issue. Any other feed is usually excellent. The MSG teams, Sabres, Islanders, Rangers, Devils... their feeds are always poop.

I do not like can't be bothered to get involved with what's going on in front of his own net Risto.

I like angry Risto.

This whole slashing thing.... I mean, either call them all or don't, but the NHL has for eons had a problem with their officials looking incredibly incompetent (because most of them are), but I'm already tired of all the arguments we're going to have about the clampdown followed by the loosening followed by the random and unpredictable enforcement of the rule that the league was trying to eliminate to begin with, but then Brad Marchand had a sad...
