  1. I cant get worked up about the goalie after a 1-0 loss in a shootout. It doesnt matter what he does if they cant score (DVR cut out before the last attempt so I dont know if it was equally weak). The key for the year is going to be getting those regulation wins. Im good with an OT loss as long as that regular loss column stays low. I liked the quicker pace out there. They really do transition quickly so far. Ill be very curious to see what the offense can do when they face a goalie who isnt all world and once they get a little more acclimated. Edit: Someone needs to teach some jersey etiquette to Mcoy. Your own name and number on a jersey? Not good, shady. Not good.
  2. AHL depth. Just like Deslauriers, he had already cleared waivers, so both guys will be starting out in the AHL. I suppose he'll be in the competitive mix down there for who gets the first injury callup. He's seen more time in the NHL (130 games) than guys like Fedun (39 games) and Tennyson (105 games), but less than Falk (223 games). If anything, this might just suggest that they want to give Guhle a full year down there interrupted unless he really excels.
  3. It might actually be the worst way to evaluate a goalie. Those 1-on-1 situations account for at best 5% of what a goalie sees during any given game. The shootout itself is a completely artificial scenario.
  4. And now she has a recurring role as a nutcase on Modern Family. Speaking of that show, they need to find a way to pull a Curb and get an all out Married with Children reunion. They had Bud at one point, now get the rest.
  5. I don't care what they're saying. This thing has been done for months. It gets announced right on the eve of the season? What a coincidence! I said back during the summer either here or on Sabrespace that this thing was done and they were going to hold onto in until the right time and that's exactly what they did. I don't blame them for doing that. I'd probably do the exact same thing if I was in their shoes. My guess is they probably would have announced it slightly sooner, but the strong start of the Bills made that not necessary.
  6. Unless he gets hurt prior to the end of that deal. Signing anything short of the max term is a huge gamble. It's easier to make that choice when it's only a 1 year gamble, but it's much more risky when it is 4. There's way too much that can happen. He'll sign for 8 years and won't think twice about it.
  7. I think they do this just to mess with the people who will get way too far ahead of themselves after seeing it.
  8. So at least it's more involved than just breaking off that tab so that you can no longer record over a cassette tape (I have no idea why that's the first comparison that comes to mind).
  9. Sorry if it's been discussed already. How much actually needs to be done to convert one of these guns to fully automatic? I'm not looking for any guide of instruction manual or anything, just wondering how difficult or easy it is. I know you can walkthrough just about anything on youtube, but some are still tougher than others.
  10. Just think, the work force is going to be flooded very soon with people who weren't even alive when Seinfeld was on. I guess they can watch it thanks to its heavy syndication over the years, but there are so many options on tv now that many are bound to have never watched a single show. I was fairly young for most of Cheers' run, but I watched it so heavily because it was aired so heavily on fox and the canadian channels. They've got way too many options today.
  11. He's probably out coaching somewhere. Someone like the Vatican national team always winds up hiring him.
  12. 4th line energy guy. I'd imagine it bumps Deslauriers off the roster. I really haven't watched much LA, but he always sounds like the player version of his father.
  13. I'm finally caught up. I'm not sure how they're going to get 3 more episodes out of this season. The S pretty much hit the fan already and there's one crazy fight left.
  14. I'd much rather see a guy his age be a top pair guy in the AHL (not sure if that will be the case) as opposed to a 5-7 guy in the NHL. He needs all the ice time he can get. It's not a bad thing.
  15. I moved into a new construction house in June of 2015, so every single bulb was new (or at least they were supposed to be). So far only three bulbs in the entire house have died and all three were one of the few non-CFLs in the house. Strangely enough, the first one to die happened the day after we moved in. The last two were in the past month or so, candelabra bulbs in a ceiling fan.
  16. My guess is that all of the surviving politicians from DC wound up in that junkyard.
  17. What does he produce, children's cartoons? I can't imagine too many people wanting to turn to a guy named Alex Da Kid for help on anything.
  18. They're definitely cannon fodder, a nice simple way for the show to up the body count and to slightly balance out the war on 3 fronts that Negan would have to be fighting very soon.
  19. Seriously Sabres, clickbait? I'm surprised they didn't go all out and say "you won't believe who he's skating with".
  20. Fear is back? I hadn't seen any ads for it.
