  1. Wow. We (GB) got destroyed today. There's a reason we haven't been in the top tier.
  2. So.... go Canes? Or Go bruins tonight? Or do we wish for infinite OT?
  3. I would like to see him taken if he's there for the Fla pick, but I reckon Arizona will grab him. They have all the time in the world to wait on him.
  4. Boo UTIs, yay Amerks Smelling a game from quinn here. 3 pointer.
  5. Can the Vegas pick move up to 11-15. Or can it only stay where it is or move with lottery win?
  6. He'd be a great fit for the horrible Flyers if they can get their sheet together.
  7. And if he proves not up to NHL then he either gets waived to Roc or another NHL team gives him a chance. Don't really see any downside from R2's side.
  8. Warning - stream of consciousness rambling ahead. It's interesting to watch from afar. We get betting ads during intermission over here, but not the presenters being part of it. I find now, when I listen to hockey podcasts or watch the NHL through my subscription it is constant. I don't need Mendes, McIndoe or duff and biron telling me who their betting partners are tbh. But I think it is symptomatic from the advertising standards in NA sports in general. Anything is for sale. The interesting part for me is how over the top advertising in NA is compared to Europe. Powerplay sponsored by whomever, Penalty kill brought to you by this thing etc etc. Ads all over the stadia, ice, boards. Yet whenever the discussion turns to ads on helmets/jerseys the same ole rhetoric appears "we don't want to look like the euro jerseys" as if somehow this pathetic line in the sand is too much. Even though Baker, ccm, true, reebok have had ads on there for years! Back to betting. I usually use a once a month free £1 from my online bookie to make a bet and spend from the pot that I generate. If I am watching a game with friends and its 2 teams I don't give a shove about then I'll maybe have a flutter. For me the way betting targets those who, for whatever reason, are in need of support is sickening. Over in Scotland you will see some of our poorest areas with 4,5 different bricks and mortar bookmakers. These will usually be between pubs, and charity (thrift) stores. TLDR: Don't blame you. Haha.
  9. Is it possible to buy the game as a one off stream?
  10. Why do I feel like the pens will be going for a new face of franchise next year.
  11. I like the following idea. Draft order is not lottery based but awarded in order of most points accrued after being mathematically eliminated from the post season. Heard it mentioned on 32 thoughts.
  12. Not a video, but found this amusing from the final game.
  13. From the commentary team I think it all depends on who they play. Need to wait for the Crunch Rocket games.
  14. Great result. Hope Quinn goes stratospheric. Can we send Mule etc down? I have no idea of the rules.
