I asked the VPD about getting Benning tarred and feathered but they said it was a bad idea since petroleum prices are so high.

I just commented on this in the gameday thread for the Canadian broadcast of the Calgary game... they got the panel people encouraging people to bet on Calgary to win because the line has come down after Dallas took the 1-0 lead and there's good value to be had betting on the Flames

what the gently caress is even going on here.. who the hell authorized this poo poo

All the tickers on TSN now show betting lines for every game, and every game page has detailed lines and explanations. I'm a Financial Planner by trade and it makes me want to rip my loving hair out that it's become so normalized.

As far as the coaching side goes, will Trotz be taking the rest of his staff with him? Lane Lambert did a good job coaching the team while Trotz was out for his mom's funeral.

He'll probably take at least Mitch Korn along with him.

The simulated hockey in the clip is mesmerizing. The first shot at :50s looks okay, then it goes off the rails. Dark team's goalie comes out 15 feet from the crease(??), then in the next shot skaters enter and exit the zone simultaneously with no rhyme or reason. Two players from the same team skate directly at each other at full speed, then we cut to a concert right before the collision. At 1:02 the skaters amble about with little regard for the flow of play. I can't stop watching this.

Yeah, the simulation of a real Coyotes' broadcast is incredibly realistic

What confuses me about Point Roberts is it has five gas stations. It's not even 5 square miles of land.

I think it has just one grocery store too, ain't no way to avoid your neighbors out there.

90% of the traffic in Point Roberts is Vancouverites going down there to get cheaper gas

Didn't see anyone post this but Seattle's AHL franchise hired the first female Assistant Coach in AHL history. She's quite young at just 30, but seems to already have a pretty good resume.

Assuming they dump Zaitsev and Murray, Sens' lineup for next year looking like:

Joseph-Stutzle-DeBrincat
Tkachuk-Norris-Batherson
Formenton-Pinto-Brown
Watson-Gambrell-Kelly

Chabot-Hamonic
Sanderson-Zub
Brannstrom-Holden
MDZ

They could still use another top-4 D, but that's not a half-bad lineup.

"Top-pairing defenseman Travis Harmonic" sounds like a very poor idea.

Is it impossible that Bowman has been changing for the better and stopped his bullshit? I don't remember any controversy at all last season. I'm not sure a 49 year old should be written off as "bad person until the end of time who should never manage in the league again."

Also, this is a genuine question out of ignorance: what has he done that we know was a cover-up of horrific sex crimes in the NHL? People tried to say there was enabling of more abuse with many more victims and everyone involved basically said he's a dickhead but the cover-up rumours are totally unfounded.

The Flames are about to be a non-factor for at least the next five years (if we’re lucky), have a majority owner with no ties to the city or country anymore, and have a decrepit arena with no replacement in sight. Once other good players start leaving and fan support starts dwindling, I wouldn’t be shocked to start hearing rumblings about Houston or Kansas City.

Don't worry, Markstrom will drag the team to mediocrity and the Flames will just miss the playoffs year after year. This will be taken as a sign that "the core is totally good enough" and management won't consider a re-build until everybody gets fired.
