no chance the bills would have beaten the chargers that day

Seriously, Peterman gift wrapped them 37 points. More in swing points really, because that meant the Bills had no meaningful possessions from which to score.

chargers were also the hottest team in the league at the time


that game was over before it started no matter who was behind center for the bills

Agreed. The bills had no chance.

Tyrod was also a terrible qb. So that wouldn’t have helped

They were 4-6. Scorching hot.

Idk about terrible. He's one of, if not the best, backup quarterback in the league. Off the top of my head for starting QBs, he's probably better than Winston, Flacco (sry pegulaville), tannehill (if he's still starting)

They were 4-6. Scorching hot.

Pretty sure they started 0-5 that year

They were on a run.

We weren’t winning that game

I looked it up. Chargers were 3-6

They lost the first 4, then won 3, then lost 2 in a row, then beat the Bills

He's heating up....

He's on FIRE!!!

So what exactly is your point in relation to Gardiner then?
- sbroads24

Just a general statement that i wouldn’t use a stat like that to say Gardiner is “good”

My thoughts on Gardiner in general is that he’s a quality puck moving defenseman, good on the pp, not the best in his own end- but gets more sh!t about being bad defensively bc of some brutal mistakes (esp in the playoffs)

I’d be cool signing him, but I’d like it to be a 2year deal
I wanna see more of how good he is/isn’t defensively, and i do think his back is something we should be concerned about

Botts settled with Elie's agent so that he could devote more time to hammering out an agreement for Shattenkirk, another RhD.

After McCabe award on Tuesday, 8/6; he will then start playing hardball with Tampa, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Florida for those coveted RhD's
1st up - Risto, but must take Sheary at 50% retained1
2nd - Shats, but must take Girgenson
3rd - Bogo, but must take Sobotka at 50% retained

Goddamn right 4145, I AM GM and it is friggin easy...putz!

So, in a team sport where multiple players impact any given play, as opposed to games such as Baseball which is predominantly 1:1; wouldn't many stats be subject to this same ridicule?

In Football, QB Completion Percentage is used by many as the gold standard to assess a QB's accuracy. But we have seen how stupid that stat is when a drop of a good pass counts against the QB. Yet, we use that flawed stat as a general method over a period of time to give us an indicator that then needs to be further evaluated in order to evaluate the gaps between QBs.

I think the same can be said of the so called useless stats such as Corsi and +/- in which context with other stats such as Zone starts, Qof C and QofT help round out the picture.
Speaking of which, in-person viewing must be heavily discounted given
-viewing distance,
-viewing angles,
-distractions like conversations with hockey dads, the attractive lady 3 rows down and 4 seats over, beer vendor, the beer vendor...did I mention the beer vendor, behind the play action, that annoying sign they put up on the glass behind the nets, ice girls...oh wait, Kim doesn't allow that, running to the boys room, leaving early, coming in late...jesus get a damn grip people.

Point is, nothing is perfect and most are not useless including +/-...flawed ... yes, perfect as a standalone measure ... no, part of the picture...absolutely yes.

Forgive me, with relatively few exceptions the last 18 years have been barely watchable.
You can't hang anyone who chooses to watch the charmin commercials on the food network instead.

No, it is a pretty, pretty good.
It reminds me of many posters when a side attack comes in response to one of their posts.
Blindly lash out a few times.

Which team has a better chance of making the playoffs this year, Bill’s or Sabres?

1.) Soooo coveted our entire fanbase wants to trade him

2.) Soooo coveted he was just bought out

3.) Soooo coveted we can't wait to get rid of him because he sucks less when he is injured and doesn't play
