    right call my butt... Saad didn't do jack. He got bumrushed and pushed back, that's it
  2. Rex Buckingham
    so let me get this straight, the Red Wings decide to goon it up and it gets a Blackhawks goal waved off?

    are you kidding me?!?!?!?!?!

    Wedge's slash lines in his miserable 4 seasons in the bigs .233.340 .430 .770 9 seasons in the minors .249.347.443.790 He's a manager. Baseball is a strange business. What's your point? A good amount of coaches/managers are guys who were average-to down right awful at the top level of their sport before getting into coaching. My assumption is he meant the guy's numbers were quite dependent on a solid walk rate that kept his OBP quite respectable despite an awful AVG. But then he goes out and downplays the value of patience, which is similar to a lot of other anti-sabr people. Kinda like Joe Morgan, whose great walk rate provided value that people such as Joe Morgan the analyst don't value

    If Houston takes one of the other top guys and the Cubs take Appel as would be expected, do you see it as being a good thing that Stanford's season is over? To me, it keeps him from any crazy pitch counts the rest of the way and if he signs early (which wouldn't seem likely but is possible I suppose) he could make a decent number of pro (minor league, obviously) appearances late summer.

    Bickell!!!!
  7. Rex Buckingham
    great patience from Handzus
  8. Rex Buckingham
    i keep Bickell on the ice so that he can bodyslam zetterberg next absolutely, he's had a heckuva game
  9. Rex Buckingham
    is there a point at which you keep Kane, Toews, etc. off the ice as much as possible to avoid any ugly hits on them?
  10. Rex Buckingham
    Shaw!
  11. Rex Buckingham

  12. Rex Buckingham

  13. Rex Buckingham
    beautiful deflection by Shaw
  14. Rex Buckingham
    finally a good-looking PP
  15. Rex Buckingham
    PP time... will they get a SOG?
  16. Rex Buckingham
    crap, really unlucky on that one
  17. Rex Buckingham
    more 4-on-4...
  18. Rex Buckingham
    quick whistle maybe too
  19. Rex Buckingham
    Abdelkader bailed out Bolland there
  20. Rex Buckingham
    the PP is just so ineffective
  21. Rex Buckingham
    got the first one!
  22. Rex Buckingham
    pretty physical early

    I figure he can be a poor man's Asik (last year's version) on defense and actually be able to catch the ball on offense. As for Crabbe, I know nothing about him at all (Like Saric, but I figure a 6'10'' SF is interesting and I've heard his name mentioned as a top intl prospect) but by Rasin's description he sounds like what Daequon Cook was supposed to be coming out of OSU which would be nice to have next to Rose

    Looking at the DraftExpress mock http://www.draftexpress.com/nba-mock-draft/2013/ and seeing what guys go around 20 and later, I would be pleased with the Bulls taking the following: Jamaal Franklin (SG-SDSU) Gogui Dieng (though I think he will go earlier) Jeff Withey Dario Saric (6'10" SF - INTL) Hardaway Jr

    Well, if one of the best coaches in the game believes that Trestman taught him everything, that's encouraging.
