The fact there is no media uproar on what should be a super juicy (read: controversial) story for the media tells you what you need to know. Which is: The league office has made it clear that if you wish to retain your credentials, you will not ask questions about this.

Eric the Mauve posted:Playing for the worst team in the league means playing against stronger competition (opponent pool doesn't include the worst team in the league) with worse teammates. I can't see how that makes a player's production less impressive. A better analogy than the Hartford Wolf Pack is the Anaheim Ducks. Put McDavid (or Matthews or Crosby or whoever) on the Ducks and would his production go up, down, or stay about the same? It would probably stay about the same. It might be closer to how American recruits don’t often get minutes for the top Eurobasket clubs: what incentive is there to develop and give valuable minutes to someone who might not stick around and needs seasoning? This seems like what interclub loans in soccer are often used for as well. It doesn’t mean that the player is that much worse than anyone on the club right now, only that the club is interested in more ready made guys now

Certainly, and some of them are probably still digging. But if there's no dirt to be found there's nowhere to go, since no one inside hockey will talk to them.

Gonna be really bummed if it turns out MAF was part of that whole thing. He's the only one left in the league from that 2003 team, and I'd guess if the perpetrators were all nobodies the league would be more willing to let them hang.

I recently learned that Citibank only exists in 7 metro markets. New York Los Angeles Chicago Bay Area DC Miami Las Vegas What do you guys think of that as an upgrade to the NHL? Maybe get rid of a third of the team's and put the rest in those cities? Mr. Kite fucked around with this message at 03:17 on Oct 5, 2023 |

“Everyone’s most beloved analytics darling has finally reached the summit, the ultimate goal for a numbers-driven team. The Carolina Hurricanes are the preseason Presidents’ Trophy favorites. Bask in the glory, calculator crowd, you’ve done it.” “More important though is the number to the far right: 15 percent. That’s Edmonton’s chances of winning it all, the highest of any team by a considerable margin; five percentage points. The Oilers are not just a contender, they’re the Stanley Cup favorite, period.”

If he'd care to put his money where his model is, I'll be very happy to lay 6 to 1 that the Edmonton Oilers will not win the Stanley Cup.
