My biggest issue with the shootout remains why I hated it back in 1994. You're deciding the winner of a game by not playing the game.

Sure, they're fun to watch, but it's not playing the game.

Yep. Not going to change anytime soon, so might as well get used to them.

Basically. It hasn't caused me to stop watching hockey, and it won't unless they adopt it in the playoffs.

Probably just a rebranding, so they can get more idiots from WIP and 97.5 on, as well as writers from the Inquirer.

It will never happen in the playoffs. Zero chance.

You think? There are still a bunch of older generation folks who aren't computer savvy.

I would say the same thing, but then I'd figure 3 work stoppages, including an entirely lost season, would get a guy fired from his $8mm a year job, but Gary's still here

I think Crims is right, although I think it'll be 5-7 years rather than 2. we're also going to see a lot of paywalls.

Tostito was a -2 in 7 minutes of ice time. I wonder how he did in his scrap with McGrattan.

What will still be in "newsprint" in a few years: Shopping mailers & coupons, stuff like the Racing form and programs at sporting events, and things like the Pennysaver/small town newspapers.

The earth is ill equipped. An enormous asteroid just came within 17k miles of hitting the earth, sounds like a great distance, but it really isn't. What would the plan be if there was an asteroid on a collision course with the Earth? I don't think there is a plan. It's not as far fetched as someone might think for it to happen.

Wow. TB is 3-10-1 in their last 14 games. What a soft team they are.

A certain d-man who shall remain nameless, fits in perfectly with that group.

Makes perfect sense. How many pp goals does Hartnell have this season? I can tell you Gagne has one more then he does. Last season was last season. Even sticking Brayden Schenn back there is a good idea.
- SuperSchennBros


How may games has he played this Season. He's been hurt. Giroux and Hartnell have chemistry. Makes zero sense to take Hartnell off of the 1st PP unit.
