everyone has deserted the place..... DABURA where are you.... have to announce it for you... HRONEK!!!!!!

Penalty was almost Lions-like. Put 12 men on the field to give your opponent a first down / Put 7 men on the ice when you're desperate for a tying goal.

Has Blashill coached this thread tonight???? Forum feels dead!!!

Yes

I live in the Little Caesars Arena Buillding on Woodward Ave on the ground floor. My name is Christopher Ehn. I’m 23 years old. I believe in blending in, and not being noticed by my coaches or fans, and sometimes I do some push-ups. In the morning if my face is a little puffy, I'll splash water on it and do more push-ups. I can do seven now. After I dry off the water, I use a hand sanitizer from Walmart. In the shower, I use an old bar of soap. With a loofah. And on the face, that same bar of soap. Then I apply an Elmers glue facial masque which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you more noticeable to your coach. Then I stare blankly at a wall until my none-NPC teammates arrive to pick me up for practice. There is an idea of a Christopher Ehn. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours, and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.

I fell asleep. lol. Thanks for filling in!

Comrie has a 100% save pct and 0.00 gaa... what's not to like

I fully expect Blashill to finish this season... but the "you're fired" presser should be scheduled for 30-60 seconds after our last game... a guy like Barry Trotz has gotten more out of less than Blash, we need a coach with a highly structured defensive system.

Fabbri holy s***

On to the 2nd round of beatings...

They wont. 5-4 wings

End of 1st. Wings trail 0-2. I blame Fortnite. And Bill Peters. No but Blashill's gonna try Abby at center when he returns.

Shakes head. Blinks eyes. Shakes head again. "What happened? I must have passed out. How long was I out? Did we win?"

Zadina up with AA and Fil now.

Now if ya only got that tooth fixed...

Comrie didn't play in ARI because they have Kuemper and Raanta. He did well for their AHL club, I think 4-0. He's only got 5 prior games in the NHL with WPG on emergency call ups. Former second rounder..why not? Bernier and Howard have been abysmal..Howard is gone after this season 100%. May as well take a zero risk chance on Comrie, he could surprise people.

Well for a drunk guy this is a 10/10 quality post. All I'll say is average variance of shots on goal against between teams over a season is actually pretty small despite the team you ice. Last year the best shot suppression team was the Ducks at 27.7 allowed per game and the worst was the Canes at 34.4 allowed per game. A difference of only 6.7 per game from the high to the low end. The best sv% starting goalie last year was Bishop at 0.934 and the worst starter was Quick at 0.888. A difference of only 4.6%. However that 4.6% number matters a whole lot more when you consider the volume it represents. Quick on the Ducks last year would have allowed 254.4 goals against. Despite the heavy shot suppression D this puts them at #21 in goals against Quick on the Canes last year would have allowed 315.9 goals against. Making them the worst goals against team in the league. Bishop on the Ducks last year would have allowed 148.92 goals against. Making them by far the best team in the league in preventing goals. Bishop on the Canes last year would have allowed 186.2 goals against. Making them again the best team in the league in preventing goals. Confounding factor is back ups. It's too difficult to account for that variance from team to team and games played. My point is that, it doesn't really matter how good the ducks D was last year. A bad goalie will make you bad. Or at least drag you down to below average defensively. Bishop on the other hand could have instantly made either the Ducks or the Canes the best defensive team in the league, despite the wide variance in shot suppression. Your goalies are gonna face about 30 shots per night no matter what you do. Having a guy that blocks 0.930 of those over just say 0.900 is actually pretty huge. I'll go on to say this, the 3 elite players that seem to be on the board to me are Lafren, Byfield, and Askarov. Maybe Raymond is a Pettersson, or maybe he is a Zadina, idk. But if we end up with the 4th overall and Askarov is still there, I definitely consider adding him over somebody who may just end up an average top 6er. GOALIES LIVES MATTER

If you really thought Zadina was a bust, then you would never think he would be worth a 1st round pick.

I just think a really good, game changing player will be available at number 4. I think there's more risk involved in taking a goaltender top 5, than there is taking a skater. If Yzerman does take Askarov with that 1st pick, I'll trust him. I'd just hope it doesn't come back to bite us, because goalies are still a bit of a crap shoot, even the elite of elite at the age of 17...
