  1. The state of officiating in the NFL is at a breaking point. THIS was called a taunt:

    Then, the ref who called it, intentionally makes contact with the player he's calling a foul on, digs deep for the flag, chucks it high in the air and holds the pose ... to taunt the guy he's calling it on:

    I wish Power had some of Chris Pronger’s grit to his game. Just enough to make other teams think twice about putting it into his corner, driving the net, touching the goalie etc… I would give up a dozen points for that.

    He may have it in him. Time will tel if it comes out. He’s not averse to physical play.

    Didn't think it was incredible or anything, just 2nd out of what I've seen. Had a late start this year due to theatres not being open due to covid. 

    I knew what I was getting into and went in let's say...prepared to especially enjoy a visual experience

    I saw Green Knight alone on a Saturday afternoon. Love a good trip to the cinema on my own. It’s one of just two movies I’ve seen in theatres this year. Free Guy was the other which I saw with my nephews which I thought was a lot of fun.

    Man if only Jagr played all his seasons in the NHL.

    Even if you include all his international goals (excluding the ones he scored when he was just on teams after his NHL career officially ended) he still wouldn’t pass Gretzky. Ovi has the bigger gripe with the lockouts and COVID-shortened seasons slowing his goal total and 50-goal season count.

    Anyone seen The Green Knight? Second favourite movie of the year so far, for me. 

    Also, Jodie Comer's performance in The Last Duel is exceptional.  

    A ranking of the films I've seen at the theatre, this year so far:

    No Time to Die > The Green Knight > Black Widow = Jungle Cruise = The Last Duel > Cop Shop > Shang-Chi = Venom 2 > The Suicide Squad > The Protege > Candyman > Fast 9 = Free Guy

    I hated Green Knight. Wanted to like it but felt like it just confused itself and didn’t deliver anything meaningful. That and the director himself said he didn’t understand or have a purpose for a handful of things that happened in his own movie.

    Didn't mention it as an asset. Mentioned in the context of we should add more size. When ppl stop using size as some asset when it isn't unless you can do allllll the other things first, I will stop. Geekie has major skating issues, if he did not and it was Savoie v Geekie, sure you could convince me that we should take Geekie because that size advantage will pay off. Issue is Geekie's skating makes the fact he is big irrelevant at this juncture. 

    Geekie needs to really improve his skating before the end of the season. Something to watch but still early.

    Size is an asset. Saying “we could use more size” is insinuating size is an asset the team is missing. It’s correct to say we could use more of it. At no point did PF say “we could use more size and should prioritize players with size over smaller players regardless of skill/performance.” It’s a complex.

    I can't name one soft playmaker added recently. 

    JJ is gritty 

    Quinn is 200ft

    Krebs is 200ft and gritty

    Poltapov is nasty

    Savoie has more grit and tenacity than Geekie impo.

    I don't think geekie being big will matter much when he can't skate

    Holy crap Quinn and Krebs are tall.

    If you're drafting a player because he's tall, you've already failed as an organization. 

    Man. People can’t mention size as an asset without you hounding them. If I’m choosing between two players who have the exact same skillet and production I’m choosing the bigger one every single time. If Shorty McShorterson is clearly the better play, I’m taking Shorty.

    Rutger McGroarty is a lottery guy who definite plays a power forward type of game.  (Highlight package from last season, USHL level)

     

    No. That’s a made up name.
