  1. I was able to catch the third last night. So I missed most of the scoring but did see the Donato/Dickinson/Mikheyev line looking solid. Two of those three might be with the team the next couple years, maybe with Teuvo as a third line. Bedard, Nazar, Frondell, Kantserov, Lardis, Bertuzzi are probably the front runners for top 6 duty next year, with Burakovsky/Teuvo as the next man up for whichever kid starts slow. With three of those 6 kids not currently producing at nhl level you have to expect some speed bumps. Two of those guys are currently 20 goal scorers. Nobody else is likely to get there this year, unless Donato heats up. You’d like to get 5 who at least flirt with it.
  2. Man that looked like it was going to be the most embarrassingly dressed ass whooping for a while there but then the goalie fight changed the tides and cooper looks like a gangster
  3. I think probably, and now they have called up Rinzel with only three games before the trade freeze. So arty might go down soon or Murphy may he gone
  4. Declan Doyle goes to Baltimore. Gonna need a new fake OC
  5. So does this mean the coach wanted to keep Darnold but he overruled him? Because that organizations demise was definitely moving to JJM and I have to assume the coach was on board.
  6. All star catcher Joe Girardi doesnt get what all the fuss is about
  7. Their near/intermediate future is tied to their current QB. I see nothing wrong with giving him a coach he’s comfortable working with and either sink or swim. If it doesn’t work, it will probably be time to move on from Allen and the HC (and GM) all at the same time in 3-4 years. You can trade him in his final year(s) of contract and start from scratch. needle moving head coach moves are for teams in desperate need of change. Buffalo just needs improvement, not an overhaul.
  8. Buffalo wasn’t a team that needed an overhaul. They need to get over a hump. Brady’s been a candidate for a while. They have their QB. I think this makes sense
  9. Lardis sent back to Rockford, mostly to make space for other healthy guys but also to allow him to play in AHL all star game
  10. Defensive focused team desperate for offensive overhaul/upgrade
  11. I think McCarthy is fine. Nothing special, but fine. He’s going to help you be good. But never great and probably not for very long, but he’s fine.
  12. Gotta Wade Boggs it on the flight to Tampa
  13. Nazar back in lineup and hawks win against another division leader in Carolina
  14. Not sure why anybody cares who hosts a national baseball pregame show. They aren’t worth watching regardless
  15. Was Vitters the guy the front office instructed coaches to not touch his swing after drafting him.?
  16. Prior made it and had way more than a cup of coffee. He was abused
  17. I have no interest whatsoever in bringing back Keenum unless they are trading Bagent. Caleb’s cap hit goes up next year and you don’t need to be spending millions on multiple backups. It’s a terrible waste of resources
  18. The dodgers have 3 titles in the past 30+ years. The Yankees had 4 in 5 years and added a 5th a decade later. They haven’t won a title since Obamas first year in office. this too shall pass
  19. I don’t know if I’d describe this as unprecedented. College hockey is mostly small schools in niche parts of Massachusetts, Michigan and Minnesota. There’s only a handful of traditional big powers that even have a team, let alone a good one. the Blackhawks head coach once coached at WMU before moving on to the nhl and the WMU coach has worked for Blashill in Detroit. It’s definitely a thing that happens and with all the turnover in the hockey coaching world there will always be a spot.
  20. This isn’t a varsity team playing JV. It’s a team of professional baseball players playing against other professional baseball players with an ownership committed to winning more than maximizing profit margins
  21. How the horsefeathers do 11 teams have a payroll under 126?
  22. The one condition that may supersede weather is the Bears defense facing a very good offense. I really don’t think cold by itself eliminates the potential for points
  23. The guys where everything works out accelerates the countdown to the 2nd contract. Everybody else accelerates the end of their career. He’s attempted 600 passes in college. He’s played one full season plus a partial. Caleb had three full seasons as a starter and over 1,000 attempts. And going first overall isn’t exactly a guarantee you get a second contract. You’re better off going to a better team in a better situation unless you are the clear cut best overall prospect at the position and luck into your team hiring a superstar HC.
  24. NIL payments make it much easier to stay in school and work on your game before jumping into the deep end of the nfl in the long run it’s likely beneficial to come back
