Weave

I cannot imagine how that would be taken as a shot. Lol

I wonder how many pizza joints today buy frozen dough from Sysco instead of making their own?

I’ve never used cup and char, so I don’t know this for a fact, but I strongly suspect that 500f isn’t going to properly cup and char.

Overnight fermentation is a common bread making technique. And makes a much more flavorful dough overall. I had a fairly serious bread making hobby for awhile. To the point that I seriously considered replacing our conventional oven with a steam injected oven.

You remember the horse collar.

Reed Larson? Did he even get a game?

400 is pretty low for pizza. Hard to get good carmelization of the crust and toppings without excessive cooking times, which does change the texture overall. At that temp you need added sugar in the dough to get it coloring up properly and avoid long cook times. I find 500f works very well and is obtainable in most home ovens. I also think you need to let the oven come up to temp and then soak for a good 30 minutes to get all the metal inside stable at 500 so your temp recovers quickly after you open the door to insert your pizza. And use a pizza stone. PA made a proper looking pie. He knows… I doubt it is Buffalo style dough, but Aldi, Tops, Wegmans dough makes a pretty damned good pie generally.

I think he parroted exactly what the coach and GM told him.

Try that in a small town. I shouldn’t have.

If the subject is Buffalo style pizza, you are missing a fair amount of caramelization on the toppings and crust. Id eat it gladly, still.

Satan frequently didn’t show up in games, is that the same as convincing us he didn’t exist?

Bocce’s

Lol. You guys are giving him a ton of *****. All I am saying is, give his version a shot. He’s generally in the right neighborhood with his recipes.

He’s from Utica. He also did a Detroit style pizza that I can confirm was very close to actual Detroit style pizza. He does seem to get things right more than not, and is not bashful about saying he substituted something not traditional when he knows. That episode seemed to me like a pretty good approximation of Bocce’s from what I recall.

I see this AM that there is an expectation that Russia may (using Belarus) attempt to gain control of a land bridge between Poland and Lithuania. That would have to trigger a NATO response, no?

Was thinking specifically of the fight changing his game.

I honestly don’t remember the big hits after that fight though. Yes, I agree he was a very effective player though until his knee injury.

Loved Peca, but those highlight reel hits were getting fewer and farther between. His shoulder was spent when we traded him. He never fully recovered from that fight with Steve Konawalchuck, and it changed his game. In hindsight I think it was the right decision. I didn’t think so at the time.

Interesting that you bring this up. There was a little of the Eichel vibe leading up to the Mogilny trade. Alex was not a “good” captain. He got the C because he was the best player on the team, not because he was a big leader. He didn’t travel with the team a number of times because of a fear of flying, but I’m not sure anyone was really buying that story. He was reportedly traveling by limo. He was mercurial and you got the sense that he was a bit of a loner on the team. And the local hockey writers were not shy in their criticism. Jim Kelley’s reputation was top notch so the criticism was mostlY accepted locally. And his effort was questioned from time to time. He was my favorite player. I hated when they moved him. But the story the team gave the fans about Peca, him immediately living up to it, and the criticism of Mogilny as a team leader, quickly healed the wound.

Kozak is going to need to find a niche to carve out an nhl career. He’s not talented enough to do it on talent. He is going to need at least one season, likely 2 or 3 to develop the kind of niche needed to have a shot at the nhl.

At the time, noone had a clue that Hasek might be more than a backup goalie. I know when that trade went down, I was very “meh”.

I loved the Chris Gratton trade. A 3rd and 4th line center for a big, dynamic, physical 2nd line center to counter Lindros and Holik. Seemed to be just what the Sabres needed. Unfortunately, THAT Chris Gratton never quite materialized.

I think you are misremembering LGRs stance re: Mitts.

Interesting. That is prices from 20 years ago. Tempting…

***** Tom Cruise and the cult he’s fronting. And I am super excited to see Oppenheimer in a week or so.
