Talking about what the player is now, not what he might be in the future.

admittedly i dont know a ton about him, but he doesnt seem to be that great. i dont know how much i would be willing to part with for him.

The film adaptation for Inherent Vice was incomparably good. The movie sets into your psyche like a contact high at Bonnaroo and takes you along the long (very long, 2.5+ hour long movie) winding narrative. Joaquin Phoenix has become a master of his craft and seeing the chemistry of him and PTA reminds me of early DeNiro and Scorsese.

Re: the book. I loved it. It helped having read Gravity's Rainbow and Mason & Dixon first to not be inhibited by Pynchon's zany, diabolically convoluted narrative style, but I.V. stands for me as a great intro to Pynchon. Before Inherent Vice was published I'd recommend Crying of Lot 49 but I.V. is so garshdarned groovy and nostalgic that it'll hit people in that same sort of way a "Big Lebowski" or "Withnail and I" can have us yearning for a certain time and place. But just don't be surprised when (non-spoiler) Doc Sportello is on an investigation and ends up on an acid trip that goes for pages and pages. It's a book that takes the private eye narrative conventions and completely dismantles them. Further more, Inherent Vice exudes a certain paranoia and haziness that not only speaks to a lifetime stoner, but to the very consciousness of Americans from the 1960s (Vietnam, Civil Rights) to the 2010s (Middle East, Civil Rights).

But regardless of the book, the movie stands on its own as a masterpiece. Plus the interactions between Joaquin Phoenix and Josh Brolin are sublime. Highly recommended.

For just wearing a track suit? Really?

I didn't realize the NHL enforced dress codes so stringently.

Nice to see that Jackofff PK get fined for diving. It's about time!
He is great at diving and also trying to start a fight when the refs are already holding him back

Nah, the Jets did, not the NHL.
