Thorny

that’s when the fun begins

That’s cool, and ya exactly. It didn’t feel long at all to me

You *will* suffer me

Killers of the Flower Moon is the film of the year. Exceptional. Exceptionally powerful

I think we have better D depth than at F I understand we have a few injuries but the bottom 6 in general is a hounds breakfast You could literally get rid of all 6 and none of the losses would be painful to take provided a replacement-level player was iced instead

It’s funny cause the “upper” “lower” vagueness used to purely be a playoffs thing

By average paragraph length

No sir it’s you who had it wrong Pressure

It’s an attribute There’s obviously a ton of randomness also present We don’t need to necessarily define WHY some players are more, or less, susceptible to nonetheless be aware of the fact some players have proven to be so, over large sample sizes

Yeap. I’ve had multiple from my playing days. They can be all over the place

Nhl.com is literally showing me different 😆 Wasn’t even a phone cache error as I reset it twice to be sure, so odd. Temporary website error I guess. Still showing it wrong for me. edit: it has now resolved First time you’ve accurately contradicted me, congrats! 😉

Stay teal, Ponyboy

Same points, they’ve played one less game

Cozens basically said as much, which was refreshing to hear

Nm I’m guessing “shoot the puck”

What is stp?

Jets too

Peterka - McDavid - Quinn Skinner - Thompson - Tuch Greenway - Mittelstadt - Benson Girgensons - Krebs - Okposo ..unstoppable Johnson - Dahlin Samuelsson - Jokiharju Clifton - Johnson ..still good 6k ..still 6k’ing - - - Obviously won’t happen but it’s fun to think about

Power Cozens Levi for Draisaitl? No for McDavid? That’s an absolute yes from me He’s the best player in the world by far, we’d actually be surrounding him with depth, and all it takes to upgrade from Cozens, a second liner, to maybe the best player of all time is a guy who’s currently playing like a back up and a guy who’s currently playing like a second paid D man. Power would hurt the most given his LT potential, and specifically his floor potential, but a deal for McDavid (if he wants to be here, shout-out to my man Adams) would have us contending for the cup this season

I think what I’m getting as is that the fancy stats seem to do a good job reflecting things on a more simple, basic, pass/fail, yes/no basis ie the stats telling me that Thompson is playing good defensively does in fact jive. I think where they run into trouble is when they start getting into the nitty gritty of their rankings, when it’s time to separate the 95% rotten tomatoes score of Citizen Kane from the 95% of Thor Ragnarok. I think their failings are most exposed when they get into more definitive “statements” of who is better than who and the numbers that get pulled in defence of those stances. Is Zegras a top defensive player now? As recently as last year he was very poor on this front - I obviously believe he has improved but again, when players are bouncing around the extremes year to year I think that speaks to where the data is limited, but not critically flawed i could also just be wrong, and Tage is truly the best defensive player in the game, along with…Sam Reinhart

Basically, “That escalated quickly.” - - - Though I’m not sure the video answers the “why” and is yet another poor tweet from Joe. Broken nose?

I’m entering into the “it’s complicated” stage within my marriage to fancy stats

How the heck could the Sabres be worth less than the Jets
