If she's 30 and starts dating a 45 or 50 year old, does that still matter?

When I was 20, I dated a 28 year old woman for 2 plus years.

When I was 38, I dated a 26 year old woman for 3 years.

What was the commonality?

Both women were mature in their mentality.

Thats what mattered the most.

Vic is practicing with PP1 this morning. Looks like the staff has taken our advice.

They take so long to make the obvious moves.

Why is that an obvious move?

when the PP struggles it's because they don't move around and get the defense on the ove, they just try and feed Thompson.

Olofsson is another guy who just stands in one spot on the PP

I wouldn't expect any wildly better results

I don't necessarily love that they seem to now be a 2-trick pony in that they seem to be angling for a one-timer on either wing. But the goal that Olo scored in the last game gives me hope. So much of the attention is geared toward Thompson that Olo was able to sneak into an open spot and the puck found him.

I was 33 when I met my now wife, who was 22. When we met, she was more mature than me and she had a smoking hot 6 foot tall body. Now she's 44 and still has a smoking hot 6 foot tall body, but I finally caught her in the maturity department...I think.

OV the best PP player ever stands in one spot most of the time. What makes the greats so great is that they can pull off the same move over and over again but you can't stop it.

The last how many games Tage has been "cold" they've been cheating to his side. Olofsson doesn't let them do that or if they still want to it'll cost them. (see recent PP)

Watch their PP and how much the opposite side is involved in creating his chances. Backstrom, Kuznetsov... that's where his chances originate.

Yeah its no different here.. They just force it more but that comes with the lesser experience of the players.

I mean I could take it or leave it, but I still prefer dolphin safe tuna.

Now Sharks on the other hand.

They don't have a Backstrom, so I'd say it's much different. Cozens gave them a different dimension, but he's not that level of playmaker.

Patiently waiting for Dahlin and Power together.

Why would they put their two best puck-moving defensemen on the same unit? Spreading them across two units are ideal.

Because they barely use their 2nd PP and they are 2 of their best offensive players. 2nd PP is an afterthought to me.
