  1. This should've been a spoiler tag. [bold]I opened the thread out of habit and saw it.[/bold] Knew within the first few minutes what you meant. Please, spoiler tags on anything related to new episodes. Once we're more than a few days to a week out whatever.

    This is 100% your fault.

     

    Spoilers are inside knowledge of content that has not yet aired (casting info, graphic novel insight, etc.). You forgot when it aired, you clicked on this thread, you got spoiled.

     

    You think things should be in spoiler tags to protect you from yourself. Then what? Do we go back and unspoilertag them when your arbitrary time period has elapsed? Leave the thread unreadable because most of the posts are hidden in spoiler tags?

     

    P.S. I'm replying to this so late because I'm just seeing this for the first time, as I didn't get caught up on the show until last night.

  2. I think that's it, it sounded like an accident the first time, and now it just sounds like he decided to roll with it, Zero ###### Given, right?

    Why, oh why has none of the local media asked RJ about it? At least we'd get some closure.

     

    Lalalala is his career's apotheosis.

     

    And Falalalala? That was transcendent.

     

    Also, who dropped portmanteau? Who was it? I wanna kiss that guy.

     

    I've had three drinks.

     

    I looked upthread. I signed on to kiss Assquatch?

    :wub:

     

    I don't know where you kiss an Assquatch but I wouldn't recommend the ass or the quatch.

    Right between them, baby.

  3. Dude, if I could rock a beard like that I totally would. That's some quality facial fuzz. And yeah, handsome woman. That might be one of the oddest/most backhanded compliments I've actually received in real life. Guy who said it wasn't being nice, I don't think. 

     

    One night I was hanging out in this girl's dorm room watching a movie. Lit only by the glow of the television we were watching, I caught her staring at me instead of the movie. When I looked at her she seemed embarrassed and she blurted out "You're so handsome in the dark".

  4. First thing I thought of when I noticed the mouthpiece was, c'mon kid, put that back in before you end up concussed.   :(

     

    Girgensons doesn't wear one at all. It drives me nuts.

     

     

    USA Hockey will be happy to tell you that mouthguards are not proven to reduce concussion.  They are there as protection for the teeth, not the brain.  Drilled into me during USA Hockey Coaches Training.

     

    This can't be true. If you get hit on the chin a mouthguard is going to assist in decelerating and not directly transferring the impact to the brain, much like a crumple zone in a car. Admittedly this type of impact is probably more relevant to a boxer than a hockey player.

  5. @JSportsnet: Told that Robin Lehner's skate got caught in a rut. Tough to know too much until swelling subsides. Sabres hoping just a sprain

    Players seemed to be falling untouched a lot more than usual last night. Pucks seemed awful bouncy as well. I'd have thought the ice would be in the best shape it could be in last night.

  6. The point is - I am not sure human eyes can accurately perceive that off-side - the players and the puck are moving fast, and the total misalignment was maybe an inch if that.  

     

    Would you want it blown dead as offside and then challenged and found out that it was 1 inch onside????   Look at the way that kills momentum;   look how long it took tonight....   It's awful.   The officials shouldn't need to carry a damn micrometer onto the ice for pity's sake.  

     

    Blatant offside where someone comes in and shovels a goal right in seconds later - yes, that's bad. 

     

    Letting play continue for another 1 minute or 2 minutes until a challenge flag is thrown for an almost imperceptible offside that had ZERO effect on the outcome?  That is WORSE.  

     

    And don't forget - they reset the clock and put that 90 seconds or whatever it was back on the clock - but they can't reset Kane's mitochondria and restore his energy that he expended during that time - he was busting his butt, as was the rest of the line, working that puck down there.   That was ice time - it didn't COUNT, but it took gas out of Kane's tank HE CAN'T GET BACK DURING THAT PERIOD!!!   

    You keep saying this. How else would it work? Are you saying there should be a whistle blown killing a live play so they can review a maybe offside?
