You're gonna have to drop the deficit thing for a few years. We're back below historical norms.

It is my belief based on memories of the IIHF Transfer agreement scuffle before last year's Olympics. I would be a good place to start looking if you are so inclined.

The exact same way we have control. They drafted him and the IIHL transfer agreement makes KHL rights take precedent over the OHL rights. He didn't need to sign a contact to do this, he just needed to decide to turn pro.

This is full on international intrigue. The new arena being built in Crimea is certainly in play here.

This is right in line with what I thought. The technology advances in fracking over the past 5 years (I'm privy to some information on the equipment supply side) have been massive. This is to be expected for a technology of this maturity level. It's at the steepest part of the development cycle. I think OPEC is scared. I don't think they are purposely tanking oil prices with the intention of making shale oil unprofitable, because I think you're talking about $40/bbl oil to make that happen. There is no way they're going to be willing to go there with all the unrest going on right now in the ME. That oil money is the only thing shielding the Saudi Royal Family from a very very gruesome coup. They can't afford to play the long game right now.

Hey Hopeful, What is the approximate extraction cost for a bbl of oil up there in ND? How does it compare the Middle East?

Especially when you throw in the Pizza Logs. :) It's also just about perfect that on the night Dom's Jersey is raised, Nolan will be behind the bench, and a team that can't score to save their lives will be on the ice. Just like old times. PA, It's not your fault.

Got my tickets. Going with my Brother and Parents. Very excited to see this happen. He did play one season with the cross swords, should it be red/black, or Blue/Gold? This is going to be a fantastic sports moment. I'm sad for you.

Carolina still has two games in hand and the tiebreaker. This is no time to rest easy.

Danny Briere?

I was just referring to this:

Funny, I didn't see TBPhD bragging about how awesome he is. :)

Never stop posting.

But it's not a penalty on a screen pass right? So if Robinson catches it behind the line, no call. Somehow he knew Corey was gonna take 3 more steps forward.

The Quinny over the Garth?

Could you provide a link? Even if it's in Korean?

Or KC Royals Hall of Famer, Rusty Kuntz

It's pretty tough to look at our comparative lifespan (pretty much in line with our ethnic makeup), and the shear effort we put into killing ourselves and say we don't get what we pay for. Keeping Americans alive is tough work!

yes

Can we talk for a moment about the name "Fluto Shinzawa"?

It's ok, 2-3 more seasons in the league and you'll have it down pat.

Just saw that the FSU defender took his helmet off on the field (15 yard personal foul) right in front of the ref who threw the PI flag.The redo should have been from the 9 not the 18. That's a huge difference with Golson's feet. Also, the ref through the PI flag before the ball was thrown. Is that weird?

Domestic Violence is not a crime in Russia.

Schenn is one of the top centers to be moved in the last few years.

Yes yes, much worse.
