  1. He had two against Boston! So he's basically he's our Gretzky. End of 2nd. Wings lead 1-0. A win would be nice. Just sayin'.
  2. Trade everyone except AA. Give AA the C.
  3. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  4. You predatory, chicanerous monster. Special teams fever dream.
  5. Lindstrom hits the post on a partial breakaway. lmao. This game.
  6. Yo, score some goals, dinguses.
  7. End of 1st. No score. A flat first half of the period but a solid second half. Outshooting them by a fairly wide margin, which is rare for this team.
  8. From what I've heard, they're going kinda noir with this film. Emphasis on detective work and such. https://meaww.com/the-batman-rumors-batsuit-batmobile-noir-approach-robert-pattinson-look-in-moviematt-reeves I stopped caring about superhero movies years ago, but I'm legit pumped about this one. Look at this cast! https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1877830/

    There likely isn't a simple cut-and-dry explanation for Larkin's dip in production this season. Instead, I would say it's the result of a bunch of things, including but not necessarily limited to the following: The somewhat-expected shooting percentage regression. His career S% is, at present, 9.4. This season: 8.5. Last season: 11.1. Season before that: 6.9. (nice) Season before that: 9.6. Rookie season: 10.4. Teams respect him now. Last season, he surprised everyone. This season, everyone knows he's a guy you have to gameplan around. Coaches and players and scouts have done their homework on him. He's being treated like a 30-goal, 70-point 1C. He's still learning things that he never really had to learn at lower levels because he was always so much faster than his peers. He's not a high-percentage shooter like McDavid or MacKinnon, so, while he does have that elite skating ability, he'll have to keep digging deep and growing his two-way game. He's never going to be an overwhelming offensive dynamo like McDavid or MacKinnon, but I think Ryan O'Reilly 2.0 is doable. (Worth noting: O'Reilly had his monster breakout half-season as a 28-year-old.) Mantha missing extended time.

  11. End of 2nd. Tied at 2. Some good, mostly bad.
  12. Ken Daniels: "He's really struggled of late, has Johansson." Me: "Ken." Ken Daniels: "Hasn't scored since December 31st." Me: "Don't do this." Ken Daniels: "To think, he'd been such a good scorer with--" Me: "STAHP. STOPIT. STOPITRIGHTNOW."
  13. Ken Daniels with the assist on that goal. Maybe if we talk about Johansson's struggles just a little more we can get him a hat trick.
  14. For what it's worth (pun intended), that's 26 points in 29 and a half games for Mantha.
  15. TRADE HELM HIS TRADE VALUE WILL NEVER BE HIGHER
  16. HELM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  17. sup Don't look now but we're outshooting them again. Nice to see some pushback before the final minutes of the 3rd. End of 1st. Tied at 1. Bad though things are, be glad we don't have Jeff Skinner's contract on our books.
