Fixed, brain cramp. Remembered RHD and typed left handed defenseman. Added in Pionk, ADA and Kirk as other RHD on team.

Like the Vegas pre-game nonsense?

Yes. That was also amazing.

Only works in Vegas.

Dude's dancing around on the field when they've grabbed a first down in a game they're losing by 21 points.
- BINGO!

To me though that's kind of the point. You guys can still make the playoffs, but currently aren't in it. I get that it is for fan engagement, but until you are in a playoff spot meh. It's where I differ from Cherry, if you make the playoffs and win game 3 at home, by all means go to town. I have no problem with the celebration in a vacuum, it's just the situation of said celebration that raises an eyebrow.

So the experts are wrong when they say Hayes and Zucc are gonna get traded?

Y yu knoh reid soh gud Mr boob?

Yes. That was also amazing.

It also works in Vegas because it totally fits their city narrative: everything needs to be over the top. However, if they did said things and actually had played like an expansion team, it would have been met with a giant thud.

Fixed, autocorrect on iPhone. Apologies.

You apologize too much Jan. Just having some fun.

You should have responded, "One (frank)ing word out of the whole blog, Its staying that way."

My biggest fear is that they will want too much and will still be here because they simply ran out of time. I think a lot of the bigger names around the league might not move because of this.

I remember a few years ago when the Islanders thought they would get the moon for Vanek at the deadline and they oversold their hand and took a crap deal from Montreal at last minute

I did in my head with lots of other expletives deleted. But taking high ground in my responses Plus I am a perfectionist and dislike making mistakes, regardless of reason.

I don't think they'd do it in the playoffs. It seems more disrespectful in that situation because you're facing the same opponent repeatedly, right? Regular season it's a different team every other night so it's not as big of a deal.

I dunno. The players enjoy it, Justin Williams came up with the damn thing and Brind'amour seems to be of the opinion that people are being idiots for even pretending it's a concern, so *shrug*

Really the owner just wanted them to come up with something different than the stick salute every team does at center ice now, because it's boring.

- BINGO!

To me, it’s after the game has ended, they aren’t showing up their opponents and they are having fun, engaging the fan base. All good components. If teams dislike it, then don’t lose, plain and simple.

For what it's worth, I think it's awesome your team and fans have embraced the heel role instead of just backing down. I imagine your team will get plenty of mainstream sales from the idiots shirts. Though after your owner just injected 250 million in the AAF, I think they shouldn't play the "small market team" label anymore.

Quiet Riot?

Elliotte Friedman’s 31 Thoughts:

7. Stealth team for Artemi Panarin: Dallas. The Stars have also checked in on Mats Zuccarello.

8. I think the teams with the best chances at signing Panarin long-term are Florida, Los Angeles, the Islanders and the Rangers. The only one that makes sense to take a shot at him for rental purposes is the Islanders. Boston hovers as a rental option, too. If the Islanders don’t get their top choices, GM Lou Lamoriello could consider old acquaintance Ilya Kovalchuk. Remember, the winger has control over his destination.

9. If the Blue Jackets don’t get Duchene, the obvious focus is Kevin Hayes. They have lots of history with the Rangers, too.

16. Zuccarello and Wayne Simmonds may have to wait until the Duchene/Stone/Panarin situations settle. A mix of similar teams looking at both: Boston, Calgary, San Jose, maybe Pittsburgh and Vegas. New Jersey GM Ray Shero was aggressive with Brian Boyle, and it sounds like he’s done the same with Marcus Johansson. I’ve heard Columbus, Edmonton, San Jose and Vancouver as teams who have checked in. Possibly Washington, too, since they know him. The Canucks are the odd fit, but they looked at Andre Burakovsky, too. So maybe they are thinking about something for the future or are trying to replace the injured Sven Baertschi.

Still have my vinyl copy, although I haven't listened to it in 30 years. I'll bet it sounds really dated.
