Those projections are real bad. I highly doubt the top team in the WESTERN CONFERENCE will have 96points.

eXXon posted:Boldly predicting a 20 point differential between the worst and best team in the league, where 4 of those 20 points are from Arizona sucking. I guess it's honest to tacitly admit that your model is unable to make up its mind about anything. It's definitely the most cowardly model

I'd rather Connor and Leon take names and throw elbows and nut shots vs getting in first fights but maybe they'll lose the locker room or something. Devin Shore might stop respecting the Captain

Twin Cinema posted:It is interesting to me that McDavid has never led the league in goals. In the COVID year, he came in 2nd (8 goals behind Matthews), and he has a 4 other top-10 finishes, but never 1st. It is just interesting to me because he has an elite S%, and is always leading the league in points. I would have thought he would have led for one year. I don't think he'll shoot 28% all year but he's also been upping his shot total per game in his career. Went from shooting about 3 times per game to 4 times now. Most of that increase is on the PP. He didn't use to look for his shot on the PP and now he does. His S/60 on the PP has gone from 8/60 to this year he's at 23/60. He has 6 PP goals this year. His career high is 11.

Starsfan posted:I think it's partly that once a prospect is benighted as a 1st round talent it takes a long time and alot of failure for that to wash off, and party that these people running hockey teams (owners and hockey operations) genuinely don't believe that off-ice stuff matters and they will happily build a team of abusers if it moves the needle even slightly towards winning a few extra games. They also know that in alot of these markets large portions of the traditional media will have their back. The Oilers could sign a guy who just got out of prison for attempting to kidnap a little kid and if they won the cup the media would line up to hail it as the greatest signing in franchise history. You don't need to invent a story when we could just talk about the Stars retiring Sergei Zubov's number last season.

Starsfan posted:I referenced the Edmonton media because I live in Edmonton and I'm inundated by it every day.. not excusing Dallas for their lovely decisions of the past (Mike Ribeiro stands in the forefront in my mind). I didn't reference Ribeiro cause you can at least make the case it was a long time ago versus Zubov being honoured and fellated 10 months ago. I can't think of any media in the league that doesn't vouch for their home team guys (which really fuckin sucks). Gilmour is still feted in Toronto constantly (where I live) and EVERYONE knows what he did. The Oilers media (not bloggers but others) stayed silent on Kane. It was actually surprising they poo poo all over the Virtanen thing, but I really doubt they would have had he been someone worth playing.

There should be a hard line for the rule but if a review takes longer than 60 seconds just stick to the call on the ice. If it takes that much effort to decide if the call was correct you're not 100% anyway

We could replace duncan keith with marcus neimelainen and that will work No no, they thought they'd replace him with Broberg, who was not ready, and use Marcus Niemelainen as the backup plan. Also Jack Campbell fuckin sucks!
