  1. Should be that everyone is scored by the number of picks away that player is from where you have him drafted, lowest score wins. So for instance if you pick someone 10th and he gets drafted 17th, you get a 7 for him. If you pick someone 15th and he gets drafted 10th, you get a 5 for him. Obviously picking someone exactly where they are drafted would give a 0. I feel this is much better scoring system in terms of showing how accurate a person is overall. Why should someone who projects a player to go 12th but he goes 14th get the same score as someone who projects him to go 30th? In the original system, both players would have the same score, they would both get a point. In my system person A would get 2 and person B would get 16, accurately showing one person was far closer than the other. Could even put a weight favoring later picks since they would be harder to get right than the early picks.
  2. It's always amazed me that teams will draft player in the middle of the first round with the expectation they will be a solid third line player. Imagine the NFL...drafting a player at 15 overall hoping he is a good backup player that gets some snaps. Not sure why there is such a disparity between sports.
  3. Forget wordle...try quordle or octordle.
  4. Just why? He was among the worst in the NHL metric wise and was the beneficiary of the Sabres goals per game increasing by quite a bit after February when they got players back and the trade for Krebs and Tuch were completed. Anderson was by far the bigger beneficiary of the goals scored than the team was with his goaltending which often turned games they had comfortable leads in into all out scrambles at the end due to him allowing bad goals. No need for this signing. Get someone in here who actually is good.
  5. 88 and sunny in WNY
  6. Honestly their fan base looks a lot better than ours at those games...sad to say... They look like they are having a party, we look like we are attending a funeral.
  7. Champs not going down without a fight.
  8. They have massive cap space so that shouldn't be an issue
  9. But Chemistry is also sometimes an accelerant to winning as well...
  10. Avalanche dominated OT...TB basically looked thrilled to even get the puck in the Avalanche zone I have no idea...at first I thought Vasilevsky had it the way he was laying down like he was squeezing the puck against him not knowing where it was.
  11. Wonder if they get free tickets to the Coachella Event? https://www.coachella.com/
  12. TB slapped back in game 3... Wonder if they tie up the series at 2 games a piece if Colorado's sticks start getting a little tighter...that's where TB's experience in those situations and previous Cup wins will come into play heavily.
  13. Just no.
  14. No. Patrick is Evander Kane lite in terms of off ice issues. Don't need that again. Especially with him being home and acting like he owns the city.
  15. Yeah, especially with some of the Mods there who think they are the Gestapo instead of Message Board Moderators.
  16. Tampa Bay looked like they were skating in quicksand yesterday... They better figure out a way to slow down the Avs or they are in danger of getting swept. Avs are much better than I gave them credit for and don't seem phased by the moment.
  17. I did watch the game...Bandits seemingly tried the same thing all game long and when that didn't work they never adjusted. Should have never got to a game 3, they choked away a lead in game 2.
  18. Really disappointing...this team seems to play down to it's opponents in the playoffs...second time they lost to an inferior team in the finals in the last few years
  19. Maybe he can make Bloomin' Onions down there?
  20. Played soccer at a high level for 25+ years and can't remember getting a concussion to be honest although I do see how it could happen pretty easily...lots of elbows, feet and heads flying around carelessly many times. Worst I have ever seen on the field was a guy having his ankle broken in 3 places by a way late slide tackle from behind that the guy got red carded for and almost started a bench clearing brawl since he basically told the dude that was what was going to happen if he got the ball again(he had gotten embarrassed several times in the game by him), and got to see a player's orbital bone get shattered right next to me when a guy jumped up to head the ball off a corner but missed and headed his eye socket instead...the crazy part was I actually scored on the play prior to the ref stopping it because the ball ending up deflecting right to me at the side of the net with nobody around me and I just tapped it in.
