I will say they are so much more fun to watch than last year. I think Schulz has brought a lot to the team too since Larsson and Dunn stay at home so much. Jones had also been playing way better than anyone could have expected. I really have no idea what they’ll do when Drieger gets better. We lost Helberg again too, and who knows about D’accord.

DancingMachine posted:What's up with Carolina on that chart? Unluckiest team in the universe or there is something fundamentally bad about their shooting? Worst shooting % in the league and bottom 10 goaltending will do that to you. Also Brett Burns is the definition of 'volume' shooter. Having 5 players with 10 games or more all with 0% shooting isn't ideal either. A quick scroll and I wonder if Burns is taking shots away from better shooters as well, but don't feel like checking the numbers to confirm/deny. T-Bone posted:They don't give up poo poo though so even when their scoring drops they'll be fine They're overperforming in both prevention and scoring. Hugely more so in scoring. That said they will likely be fine because the West is a gigantic garbage patch and they already have a 5 point cushion with about 1/4th of the season played. This now reminds me I started writing a dumb stupid thing about where teams were vs expectation with about 25% of the season played and uh only did up to Chicago? I'll have to remember to get back to boring everyone with that.

They're actually underperforming their expected GA slightly. Seattle is one of the best defensive teams in the league. e: But back to the Superior Eastern Conference. Detroit and the Islanders are frauds but are Pittsburgh/Carolina/Florida good enough to take advantage of it? You'd think so but probably one of them will miss at this rate.

https://twitter.com/racheldoerrie/status/1597013343700627457?s=46&t=xMnIb14Q-nst6Pn4xfBDEg Rachel Doerrie was hired to be an analyst in Vancouver and was eventually promoted to an assistant video coach. Then she accused Vancouver assistant GM Emilie Castonguay of getting her fired and subsequently destroying her career/life. It’s quite involved. Still reading through it myself.

The Islanders looked SO BAD against the Devils and they are so old and slow it's pretty amazing that they are winning so much but I guess their goalie is awesome and they are scoring just enough? Seems unsustainable to me.

Seems unsustainable to me. Yeah they're a bottom 10 team in the league outside of goaltending but man what goaltending. They're a more extreme version of the Rangers last year yet also old, so you'd think it won't hold up but it is Thanksgiving. I'd probably bet on Detroit being the one to fall out if I had to just pick one though. It's hard to see two of Florida/Carolina/Pittsburgh/The Rangers missing, but maybe one of them does???

We talked about that in the Corporate thread recently and someone pointed out that HR is the corporate world's version of police. The analogy is pretty near exact, beyond the obvious difference between the power to end your career and the power to end your life. There are a very few times in your life that you should talk to HR. Very few. Otherwise, HR is not there to help you, do not talk to them.

What a trash organisation. And yeah, Union > HR. Perfect example of why everyone should be in a union. Doesn’t matter if your picking berries for a billionaire or are a high profile hire who appeared in a press release, there’s always someone in a corporate structure looking to screw you.

The question now is when the skeletons for all the other teams come out. This stuff is happening so regularly now there's no way every team's leadership isn't guilty. (and I don't mean to draw attention away from this person, just that every year I get more disgusted with the NHL)

If her side of things is true, she got fired for sending a nothing text to a reporter? I'm sure comments are supposed to be funnelled through communications, but if texting a reporter in the sports world was a fireable offence no one would have a job. Regardless, "OMG. So Kind. Wanna include those quotes when you tweet or write about it hahah. Make me look like I’m not an idiot" is the most nothing statement ever.

It's one side of a lawsuit, so take it with a grain of salt. Still, it's more needless drama for an organization that seems wholly incapable of avoiding it. https://twitter.com/QuadreIli/status/1597040284227244032?s=20&t=1LhUawHSBNyipO-A5F9H0A

He also has the worst shot in the NHL and probably just doesn't shoot enough either. He's got all the skills outside of shooting that SHOULD make him a very good player, but he was never a good shooter even when young and has just never figured that out for whatever reason which really limits him.

At the same time her abilities were being praised by the rest of the coaching staff in public. Bruce isn’t going to say she’s doing a good job and just wouldn’t have probably talked about it at all if she wasn’t. There’s so much evidence of the GMs office being crappy that the most likely thing here is they were being crappy again. The article in question is legit the one where her abilities are being praised. It’s just so stupid and someone else needs to snap her up. Such a strong history of analytics for it to go to waste.
