Weave

And its only happened a handful of times in the modern era, and after each instance the rules were tweaked to further disincentivize it. If it takes a #8 team getting the 1st overall pick to end tanking I’m all for it.

It’s too bad @biodorkisn’t active on this site any more. Would be interesting to hear from additional voices with medical research experience. Claude adds an interesting perspective to the conversation.

Can you translate this in English?

Got it.

Well, that went sideways. If I understand Claude correctly, all he is saying is, the data re: masks is still being collected and evaluated so no firm conclusions should be made, BUT based on what has been observed so far, wearing masks appears to make sense as a reasonable deterrent to virus transfer in casual contact situations. Or thats what I want Claude to be saying. Either one.

Don't know where this should go so I am putting it here. Sabrespace whipping boy with an interesting tweet this evening.

As of it hasn’t been laid out plainly enough times....

If accurate, That’s a trait will need to be relearned. NHL goalies are too good and too big for a player to succeed consistently outside of the danger areas.

Goya is what I’ve been using since our latino grocery store closed.

I would have to think that more time in an enclosed space moves the bar closer to the masked person regardless of distance. Thinking relatively stagnant airmass and the super spreader groups like that Seattle choir team.

Sour cream and the adobo from a can/jar of chipotles in adobo make a great dip or sandwich smear.

How long dis it take to get your results?

If it feels good, do it. Oh, wait.... wrong advice columnist.

As an American it boggles my mind as well. But I feel like this has been decades in coming, and isn't a recent change.

https://apple.news/AL66K9GuUS8uMYj_98E9d9w Texas Medical Center hospitals have stopped reporting key metrics showing the stress rising numbers of COVID-19 patients are placing on their facilities, undermining data that policy makers and the public have relied upon during the pandemic to gauge the spread of the coronavirus. The change came one day after the hospitals reported their base intensive care capacity had hit 100 percent for the first time during the pandemic, with projections showing the institutions — which together comprise the world’s largest medical complex — were on pace to exceed their “unsustainable surge capacity” by July 6. It also followed discussions between Gov. Greg Abbott and hospital executives in which the governor expressed displeasure with negative headlines about ICU capacity, sources familiar with the talks said.

We don’t need a messiah. We need a 2c. If 8OA can be used to get us a 2C then the asset was used wisely. Frankly, the most we can realistically expect from an 8OA is that it eventually develops into something worth the equivalent of a good 2C. If we can get that now we win based on time value of an asset.

What are the odds that the folks lambasting Cuomo for a bad decision in retrospect also feel about Covid that “its most old folks dying anyway” and conveniently leave that part out?

It’s easier to disregard the idea if you assume failure in the player acquired. There is a whole continuum of results between ROR and Frolik.

For just a thought exercise...... Tampa would make an interesting trade partner for moving Jack if it weren’t for all those NMCs. We have Jack, who would command multiple high end players coming back, and cap space. Tampa has serious cap issues and a surplus of high end talent and they cannot afford to keep all of them. It would be a 3-4 to 1 deal and might actually result in a win-win. No I’m not going to propose anything. I have no emotional investment in the idea. Just posting a thought bubble that if Jack were to ever move, this is how it might happen and Buffalo not lose out on the deal.

When 1/3 of the country still thinks its a hoax.....

I’m for moving the pick for the right player coming back. I’ll worry about depth in our development system only after we’ve got a full roster of decent NHL players on the ice. We've seen what happens when we don’t have players to slot into key positions. We end up playing kids that aren’t ready like Casey and Tage. So I’m hoping the team prioritizes filling key holes like 2C and goal and then fill the developmental system.

Craig Button put out his first draft prediction. Buffalo selects Holtz.

How long before a fan on a message board has the screen name “That Pledge Smell”?

IT’S NOT A RUMOR! #Arnold
