the years are long, but the number is good in an expanding cap for a guy like chiarot. the wings - and the league - value physical defenseman more than the analytics crowd does. chiarot on your third pair next year is not bad. in 3 years i suspect he'll be in grand rapids a lot. at least i hope so.

if you think that tells you everything i would question your curiosity. i also question just how much you actually know about soccer

he's such a prima donna bitch. you should watch the 80s and 90s basketball and how much they beat the living **** out of you every game.

lucky they were playing denver's g league affiliate.

well, i was mostly kidding. to each their own with sports. hockey is definitely more niche than baseball. basketball is becoming more popular than baseball nowadays. i could sit here and describe how soccer is the best sport to watch. none of you would believe me but the rest of the world would...

why wouldnt you just foul rather than let them try the three? why wasnt ausar in the game? had he fouled out?

palat and soucy to the isles. soucy had been talked about to detroit.

bad loss. hopefully missing edvinsson doesnt do them in for this tough stretch before the break.

they havent played well for a while and are still winning. schedule is about to get a lot tougher. but they needed to hold serve at home and they did. hopefully they can get their shooting stroke back soon for the gauntlet of msu, purdue, illinois, and duke.

i was comparing more to the wnba. world series does much better ratings than the stanley cup, any way you slice it. (even if hockey is a much more exciting sport than baseball by a wide margin...) 🙂

ok, need a big third period. losing at home to the kings would not be great.

plus about 4 million canadian viewers for stanley cup games.

Schedule is going to be tough. at oregon, ucla, at ohio state is going to be tough. two hard road games and a classic trap game sandwiched in between.

asp really belongs in grand rapids. poor kid.

some might say watching the grizzlies play basketball is a crime against humanity...

we dont even know vancouver wanted edvinsson or that they would have taken an offer that included edvinsson over an offer that included zeev buium and marco rossi.

and by then jack and luke might even be off the injured list!

edvinsson out through the olympic break. 😞

popular opinion has turned against trump. from yglesias today: noem/miller lost the influence battle to homan. homan argued for going into the prisons/jails and deporting criminals. noem/miller wanted troops on the streets causing scenes and chaos. with public opinion turning against trump, he calls homan back and sends noem/miller to the sidelines. knowing trump and his miniscule self-esteem and tiny attention span, noem/miller will be back before too long the next time homan says something his lordship doesnt like.

shedeur sanders is going to the pro bowl. bwaaahaahaahaa! bwaaahaaaahaaa! please cancel the pro bowl festivities, theyre drunk.

edvinsson is a big, young, strong actual defenseman. hughes is a forward playing defense. edvinsson should be able to be re-signed by detroit for long term. hughes is not signing and is likely to leave than to stay. hughes is a great player, but edvinsson's development combined with the uncertainty about re-signing hughes would make me balk at including edvinsson in any deal. i'd rather have edvinsson than zeev buium too.

speaking of yzerman, his free agent signings this year have worked out much better than last year. still pisses me off a bit to see tarasenko scoring in minnesota when he was such a POS here.

i think he'd give up non-first round picks and potentially some depth prospects for a guy like faulk. but i also think other teams will beat that offer and start throwing first round picks out there. yzerman is probably the most secure gm in the league. the owner isnt going to fire him and if he wanted to leave, he's got plenty of cash. he's got little pressure to do something stupid like giving up first rounders. (i say that and watch him deal a first for some depth defenseman...)

i havent watched a super bowl since the lions lost to the niners in the nfc championship game. my friend is a pats fan. he's rich and has a nice house so i might go watch if he has a super bowl party. but i couldnt care less.

1) dont count your chickens 2) they definitely need another defenseman. cant go into big games with asp on the second pair and hamonic on the ice.
