Then thank your deity that you never played past 2nd edition AD&D or Rules Cyclopedia D&D. I did then retreated back to old school gaming.

Cause I have time to kill at work. Top 10 Flyers snipers:
1. Tim Kerr-4 consecutive 50 goal seasons and the quickest release on a wrist shot in Flyers history
2. Reggie Leach-the rifle, 19 goals in 16 games in the 76 playoffs, unreal!
3. John Leclair-hit 50 3 times in a row, shot was unbelievably heavy
4. Rick Macleish-best pure wrist shot in Flyers history, deadly on breakaways
5. Eric Lindros-was killer with every type of shot
6. Mark Recchi-had an uncanny ability to hit that one open spot.
7. Bill Barber-shot hard and accurate, a lethal combo
8. Brian Propp-wicked snap shot, loved to hit the top corner
9. Danny Briere-the ultimate big goal scorer, excellent release and timing
10. Jeremy Roenick-good all around scorer, also knew how to score the big ones

There was no pot shot taken. Nor was anything random. We've already determined that we disagree on Primary and secondary assists as part of advanced stats. But it's clear that the discussion on the worth of promary versus secondary assists, was escalated by the advanced stats community.

Effective Strategies for WIN:

1) Open your reply by repeating/reusing OP's words in a way that makes absolutely no sense,

2) Cling to the same tired premise, even if it's already been debunked with facts/numbers/logic etc,

3) Liberally sprinkle in absolute statements, jargon and/or vague talk of "understanding the game", so nobody can claim that you aren't the hockey savant that you so obviously are,

4) Repeat ad infinitum, if necessary. Being able to outlast somebody in any argument is almost as effective as being able to prove that you actually know what you're talking about,

5) After you're done, remember to go back and un-spellcheck your post, throw in some random punctuation, too,

6) Congrats, you're a winner!

Don't forget the great strategy of replying to a post 6 pages later, after the poster has left to make it appear that you have the final word and won the arguement.

FWIW, Dave Pagnotta , 4th period, says that Bogo is not likely to stay in WPG L-T. Thinks he'll go thru arb and sign a 1 or 2 yr deal, but that's it. he'd be near the top of my list of plyrs that I'd part w/ schenn for...

To be honest... It would go Read, Hartnell, Simmonds, Schenn, Couts in order of trade preference.

Bryz finally has an offer on the table:

http://prohockeytalk.nbcs...-from-khl-expansion-club/

Too bad it's from a KHL expansion club playing literally in Far Eastern Siberia. Makes Winnipeg look like Honolulu.

- Tomahawk

Actually statistically speaking Vladivostok is a little bit warmer than Winnipeg

Vladivostok the largest city in the Russian far east, close to the Chinese and North Korean border.

Still while Winnipeg might not be the most desirable destination in the NHL, im sure he'd rather be playing there than in the KHL.

I'm a big fan of Simmonds, but he's far from untouchable.

Dinosaur bone, meteorite, and gold. Me gusta.
