  1. Article/interview with Granato in the athletic is interesting. Players talking about being pushed harder Fairburn adds:

    “As for how demanding his practices were, Granato noted they had 56 games with one day or no days between games. He said, “Your job as a coach is to push your team and create urgency. You’re balancing all the time how hard you can push”.”

    I think he came across positively, but also rather naive.

    idk but I would have assumed he could. Wasn't it the same with Shane Wright in Seattle and they let him go down? 

    Didn’t right end up with 4 years of CHL credit? After Seattle did the IR/AHL recovery/world juniors he went back to his CHL team for the rest of the year. I was almost certain he got credit for the Covid year.

    Don’t need to tell you guys about the flaws of +/-.

    But within that context it does give you some indication of how successful a player has been in his role and relative to his team.

    On a team that is -7, 20-year-old Nikita Novikov is +19, far and away the best on the Amerks.

    He has 23 points in 62 games.

    No idea what the underlying metrics and eye test is saying, but the numbers look promising.

    Mattias Samuelsson had 12 points in 23 games as a 20-year-old rookie, and was -8 on an inferior Amerks team.

    Very excited to see him on the big team eventually.

    I never played the game.  I’m aware of it and watched my bro play.  It’s wacky.  Walton Goggins in genius in everything.  Ella Purnell might be pushing Sydney Sweeney down my celebrity crush ladder. 

    I started Fallout 4 last year, but not got very far. Series seems to capture the vibes. Might have to restart it.
