McDavid pointless. Dude folds

Two sweetest words in sports

He’s probably thinking about how fun these two deep runs were compared to golfing

People should maybe just stop making predictions, nah? No one has been right yet lol

The offside rule went in because of this - - - if it’s inconclusive upon replay at *real speed* call on ice should stand

The offside replay system is so dumb. 5 minutes for something imperceivable to the naked eye

Oh my gosh If it’s taking this long it’s a goal

Both him and McDavid were Smythe favorites but McDavid maintained/elevated in the final and Bob has declined

I think I’d credit the oilers more. Except for Bobrovsky - he’s been disappointing Game 7 could honestly go either way though. A lot will come down to first goal If it gets there

With what like a 6 team league on an unfairly advantaged Habs team? McDavid is better than Harvey

His sheer dominance over the others of his era gives him a bye right to the top 10 imo i think he’s the “best” to ever do it but yes, in terms of greatness I think he’s got a ways to go to catch the top guys but he’d be flirting with ~5-6 imo with a win here

Shorsey is about as accurate a depiction as it is to say Canadians are maple syrup swigging igloo dwelling yokels who only say eh

Where do you rank McDavid all time If they win the cup? Top 5? To me, I still have Sid ahead due to the 3 cups, but I bet you I’d be in the minority

I know you want to frame Skinner as “those who think he has value” and “those who aren’t deluded or naive” but that’s not accurate - - - Sure, re: Casey. My point though was that he had a pretty good playoffs - we already know that

I did, you can lean on this because you don’t have anything coherent to say but easier just to take the L 9 points in 11 games isn’t Jack sh*t Their captain said otherwise as did the stats

I know but you asked what was controversial presumably re: the perception of others and he laid it out

It’s not my fault the barometer you chose for your argument was “Jack-sh*t.”

This is the part of what PA was talking about that I get

It’s not just casuals. A massive factor is also where your priorities are for next season

He literally explained this tho

9 points in 11 games and MacKinnon said he was their best player after the Jets series. Ok

Krebs to Philly for future considerations: there’s your addition by subtraction

Sound like my Dad with the Tiger thing lol Tiger is a big reason I don’t consider all the sports watching I’ve done over the years completely pointless. He’s carried a lot of water in the “facilitation of rooting interest enjoyment” category for me probably more than any other rooting interest I’ve had His demeanour was part and parcel with the reason he’s the greatest golfer to ever play The field would collapse around him, literally, through pure intimidation Jordan was an ass, too. That’s sort of the point

It’s definitely something I’ve personally just dropped because arguing against it seems imminently futile
