Jesse's articles are great. Although I wish it wasn't behind a paywall, I'm glad he's getting some more money for his efforts.

Agree on RW. His stuff was really good a couple years ago and every now and again he pulls it out. He just doesn't have the same passion for his blog he used to. Oh well, it's just hockeybuzz.

I heard RW’s blogs will be charged if you want to read from now on..

On occasion I’ve wondered what these discussions would be like if we were all at a local restaurant or something. Just sipping on drinks and eating nachos and burgers and stuff, talking about the Pens. I imagine with Grinder’s death sentence statements for Simon he probably would’ve stopped receiving invites 😬 but aside from that I’d like to think we could all enjoy the game together

I actually think I'd get along with Grinder the best in the real world.

I did and it gave me a headache just looking at it. Designing a good website isn't hard, people.

I've been reading and enjoying Pensburgh. More convivial, less acrimonious.

I did too. The layout of the pages are pretty bad but they had some good discussions compared to what’s been thrown here.

There's evidence in this article (and many others) that shows that.

After years on this board and getting used to his shtick I think he’s probably more of a funny guy than actual curmudgeon. Sometimes he goes overboard, but it is the Internet.

Kunitz came over and put up similar numbers to his Anaheim days.

Sheary s last two seasons were around 30-35 points which, one in Pit and one on Buf. Probably more in line with where he should be scoring as opposed to the 50ish points a few years ago.

Let’s go pens board sucks. I tried reading it this morning at the airport and I couldn’t get into any of their posts. It was all blah.

Saw you and Boyd disagree on health care the other day. One more alt account theory debunked.

Skews the figures to use the Kunitz seasons where he was aging and getting moved around, doesn’t it? If you exclude his last 3 seasons where he was in his mid 30’s his PPG in Pitt was 0.81x. As an Anaheim Duck he was 0.64x. That 0.17x difference over the course of a season is 14 points per season. His TOI and PP usage also got cut. I’d be curious what his ES pts/60 was in those time periods

I missed a healthcare discussion? Only thing I’ve seen on healthcare lately was the old lady telling Kampala Harris not to change her insurance. As you may know, elderly people on fixed incomes are the most at risk for healthcare changes

I'm putting myself into the pool for new Pens blogger. I will watch the games when I have time and make all analyses based off of the eye test and traditional data.
