  1. reminds me of that Tavares highlight from a few years ago where he just would not lose the puck. Scheifele just had one like it this week too
  2. Tho 05-06 team always seemed to find ways to pull out comebacks like this.
  3. His dog was spooked and slipped her leash before he could drop the puck. Then he slipped
  4. He does play with a tenacity that I did not anticipate
  5. Your discipline is impressive. If I had a pair they would be my go to date night conversation piece Sneaky little pass by skinner there
  6. Stuck in rural south-central Virginia this week. Glad I have this game to look forward to tonight
  7. On a nondescript corner somewhere in upstate NY, Jeffismagic is standing on a soapbox screaming through a megaphone that the savior has come and it's too late for the doubters to change their tune
  8. I couldn't watch last night. Will be very dissapointed if we can't find something tonight
  9. Rasmus Dahlin: the first of his name, the true heir of lidstrom, mover of pucks, the prince who was promised
  10. Ultimately, the upshot of this is an attempt to turn "Wednesday night hockey" into a brand a la Monday night football. It's a longshot for sure. Outside of the major markets there are countless "fans" who only turn in for the playoffs. if the NHL can turn WNH into sports fan appointment viewing instead of what hockey hardos watch when their team is off, that would be the ultimate success. Spreading the slots out to emerging markets could help that cause
  11. Big Ben used to take those hits early in his career too. The key is for Josh to keep those positive runs and eliminate the stupid ones. Time will tell
  12. Rosen has his preseason debut tonight. I preferred Allen at the draft but will be interested in seeing what Rosen can do.
  13. You could also Play him on Mitts wing. Start them in the O zone at an obscenely high rate and let them do what they do best
  14. Sounds like he really just wants out of of that organization
  15. Recovering from such a monumental mistake as a young player to have an 800 game NHL career....that sort of character and resiliency could help this team bounce back from tough losses and mistakes.
  16. The Blues and Minnesota played a preseason game at sprint center in KC last year. FWIW I had no idea who Thompson was but left the game thinking that he was going to be a difference maker. His hands and shot were clearly a step above the Thorburn and Chris Stewart types who were in the game. His raw talent level made him stick out. The keyword here is RAW. There were times where he tried to dangle or do to much with the puck. He also clearly needed to bulk up. A year of playing disciplined, bottom six minutes on a defensive team should be prove to be beneficial. He struck me as a player at the NHL level who should be able to flash his offensive upside a few times a game but needed to learn how to play a simple north / south game in between those chances to strike. If he does this he will be a shooter who is capable of positively contributing to possession on the cycle as well as plant in the slot for rebounds and tips. His upside is likely Johan Franzen. I do not think he has the temperament to slot in as a big fourth liner if he doesn't blossom as a scorer. 3 years from now he's either a top 6 NHL forward or an AHL all star.
  17. I would swap sobotka and Berglund. Sobotka has more speed and Berglund has more finish
  18. T-minus 10 minutes until I sneak out of work and start tippin margaritas poolside
  19. Caught Pekar with his pants down
