Of course you could - by not caring enough to type that

Let me re-phrase that- I could not care less...

This is quite possibly a not true statement that I can maybe understand or not.

Eichel is "sculpted."

The faceoff thing is different though. It's just math.

That's the thing, it's not just math. The human element comes into play, and humans are unpredictable at that level, sure each individual human is fairly predictable, but as a whole we aren't, as well as zone start, game situation. All else being equal I'd take the guy who's better at faceoffs.

Of course. That doesn't mean you construct a roster with FO% being an important factor. As it's been posted a few times now, the variance is miniscule. You don't need to worry about face offs.

Exactly. If everything else is equal, then sure, take the better face-off guy. But there's no point targeting guys specifically for this ability, and definitely no point paying them extra for it.

So...........

No Olli
No Face Offs
No Special Teams
No Caring
No Sammy
Stinks
Bum
Okposo
Lehner


what did I miss ?

So that was real after all.

That was some weird poop last night, man I'll tell ya. I don't know if I accidentally took 2 or something, or what.

Yup, which is the overall point.

Eichel was 41% on the dot. Like all great players, that number will get better, and maybe two people will notice, or care

No clue, probably Leaf fans cuz that's all that posts there.

Hey, what's wrong with one man admiring the physique of another man? At least Lehner isn't 18/19. That makes it better. Right?

It makes it better - right up until you read sentences like this:

Sabres fans haven't seen a goalie as salty and pissed off as Lehner since Tom Barrasso ruled the Buffalo four by six back in the 1980s.

If you piss him off, Lehner will fight you. At 6'5" and 240 pounds, Lehner is like an MMA fighter covered in padding. If you mess with him or his teammates, he will wreck your world.

Poor Ben Scrivens will have to feel the wrath of Lehner next season.

Earlier this season, Columbus Blue Jax Boone Jenner and Jack Johnson were so lucky that Lehner didn't crush their skulls with his fists of fury after Zach Bogosian was back stabbed with a greasy, illegal hit from behind. There is no doubt in my mid that Lehner will be looking for Jenner and Johnson for a little trip down memory lane next season.

EDIT: I feel sorry for you guys that you have this clown associated with your fanbase, and that some folks seem to think that he represents a good majority of you...

I was totally kidding, it's weird. He's got every right to do it, and I've got every right to call it weird.

I'm past the point of caring of what he writes. I had my blowup last year.

Yeah - I mean, I can understand and enjoy the "superfan" in some instances. Enthusiasm like that is really great to see in fans, but man oh man, a grown-ass, middle-aged adult commenting on the physique of a teenage athlete is pretty disturbing
