  1. Every sport does it
  2. They very clearly want those guys playing big minutes in all situations in the AHL, rather than limited minutes in the NHL. I think they probably went with one or two too many vets, but somebody will be injured before Halloween and there will be plenty of options for young players to step up. The AHL guys are paid to develop kids, the NHL guys are paid to win NHL games.
  3. If you are genuinely concerned about head injuries in football for your children you shouldn’t be steering them toward soccer.
  4. Sounds like the first period sucked but they are buzzing to start the second. They probably have to score in first 10 minutes or they’ll done
  5. Between ESPN, ESPN+, and the Turner channels, not to mention all the NY stations when they played devils, rangers and islanders, the hawks were on TV for me a ton last year.
  6. There’s a slate of 3 games on ESPN and ESPN+ today, starting at 4:30 eastern through the 10 pm eastern slot. Florida and Boston should be flying out of Miami immediately after their games. Thursday night has 9 games on the docket including the home opener of first place New Jersey after they stomped Buffalo in Prague.
  7. Do people refer to things on Wikipedia as official?
  8. They are taking a page out of the pwhl playbooks and not rushing into a new branding campaign in only a couple months since the sale/move took place. They will play a season as UHC and then launch their new logo and name next offseason.
  9. Philips…, feed my fish? Not too much
  10. What happened on the drive where Williams got to the goal line but didn’t convert TD in the third? SiriusXM signal went out for about 5 minutes then
  11. Justin fields played well and did a lot of good things chris collinsworth - Wayne Gretzky —- Michael Scott
  12. Fields never gets that call as a bear
  13. I’d like to see the Steelers pull off an ugly win to keep fields starting and knock down a potential nfc wild card rival
  14. If you insist on that you have to switch back to 2 divisions. But you don’t have to do that. One and done puts greater emphasis on regular season. If you don’t want to win your division and be eliminated in one game, then win more regular season games. it rewards greatness while maintaining the possibility for more teams to stay in the race.
  15. One and done is was and always will be the best option for wild card entrants
  16. The Chicago Blackhawks today announced that the team has assigned forward Frank Nazar, along with defensemen Louis Crevier and Kevin Korchinski to the Rockford IceHogs of the American Hockey League. The team has also assigned forward AJ Spellacy to the Windsor Spitfires of the Ontario Hockey League. The regular season is 6 days away and some of the biggest roster questions have been answered, with Nazar heading down to AHL with Korchinski and Spellacy returning to junior. Reichel is still around but appears to be a man without a spot, who may be moved in a change of scenery situation. the athletic’s projection sees a real step forward but remaining a really bad team. *Do not expect there to be a postseason thread The problem with scorched earth rebuilds is that it takes time for that earth to become fertile ground again. Even massive steps can still have a franchise far away from competitiveness. That’s exactly where Chicago lands with an expected 25-point improvement … that still has the Blackhawks almost 20 points out of a playoff spot in the West. All that money spent in free agency isn’t enough to completely turn this team around, leaving it very likely that the Blackhawks will once again be a bottom-five outfit. They landed there in 54 percent of simulations.
  17. I wouldn’t be completely surprised. Moore vocally supported Fields before they dumped him. Maybe that was playing the good teammate or maybe that was real. If it was real, and now he has to break in a new QB who clearly played terribly in the first couple games. It’s entirely possible he’s annoyed. But it seems more likely to me that the two guys just need to get on same page and they’ll be fine eventually.
  18. Chicago is a 3.5 point favorite at home against the lowly Panthers, who are trying to avoid picking 1st next April with the Red Rocket at the helm. Dalton came back to earth a little bit after coming out the gates red hot. He’s still the type of guy that has given Eberflus’s Bears defense trouble, but maybe Chicago has improved enough to be able to stop the mediocre competent veteran QB this year. Carolina is the type of defense to give Williams an opportunity to produce for a full game, and hopefully he capitalizes on it. The offense has gone from one decent drive to one good quarter to one good half and now maybe they can put together a complete game. They should be able to run the ball which hopefully opens up the passing game. A win keeps them in playoff contention this season and quiets the boo birds for a month, before they return to Soldier Field again. By then the season will probably look a lot different.
  19. What a weird comparison. One inherited wealth, failed miserably repeatedly and was a national punchline for decades until a bunch of racist dickbags identified with his ignorance. The other was an accomplished athlete that threw it all away then spent decades as a national punchline.
