Drop the crack pipe...
...Horvat has 44 points this year on pace for 67.
Simmonds has 19 on pace for 30.
There is absolutely zero chance Simmonds is an upgrade in ANY AREA over Horvat. Good god...some posters think this is 2013!!
I don't understand how any of what you said refutes any of what I said.

Likely a huge upgrade over Horvat as a net front presence on PP1. As a PP specialist I don't mind him logging 10 minutes a game on the fourth line.

Our defense is hot trash.
Myers, Fantenberg, Benn and Stecher have no place on a Cup contending roster. Edler and Tanev are on their last legs.
If we don't completely rehaul that back end we're going to be easy second round outs in the coming years.
Markstrom can't play God like this every season.

I can't speak to the accuracy of the statistics being kept, but like @Rob_Zepp said, the official stats are very much so at odds with what you're saying.
Fair. I'm definitely going overboard to an extent.

Wow, his actual stats in terms of giveaways is totally at odds with your statement. I find him very responsible in his own zone. Perhaps you have his number confused with someone else?
The 5 is probably an exaggeration, but he definitely makes a ton of questionable decisions with the puck. At least from what I've seen.

He has 27 giveaways on the season, which actually ties him with Stamkos for the third least amount of giveaways of anyone in the top 30 of league scoring, with a giveaway/takeaway +/- of +9, which ranks him second of all players in the top 30 of league scoring.
There is no way that's accurate. Maybe I'll start keeping a tally of the amount of passes he tries to force through sticks and failed dekes. It's definitely enough to be noticeable.

Miller is kind of what I hoped Goldobin would turn into. A guy who's production masks the fact that he has like 5 brutal turnovers a game.
Miller honestly makes so many bone headed plays but his work ethic and offensive contributions make up for it and then some.
-
Hope he's GM in two years.

take it easy..
Its a cardinal sin to praise an opponent too much during battle.
I would hate to not be able to appreciate good hockey when you see it. It's not the playoffs yet, I don't need to pick sides too hard.

Is it just me or does Virtanen seem out of sync with petey and miller tonight? Lots of mis ques at the line
It's hard to rag on him because he's definitely trying to play a more patient game but his brain just doesn't process the game fast enough yet. Can can keep up physically but mentally he's always two steps behind when he plays in the top six. He's producing in spite of that deficiency which is nice.
-
These Blues remind of the prime LA Kings, just a well oiled machine in terms of systems play. Every single player is in sync and has bought in, a treat to watch.

I'm still extremely worried about our back end. Hughes is the only sure thing at this point, and the last thing I want is to end up as the Leafs 2.0.
That being said, he's definitely redeemed himself somewhat in my books. #1 GM in the league though... Heh.
-
Hard to gauge. He's an elite prospect... not sure what we have to offer a rebuilding team other than more 1sts.
-
Forget Eriksson, give them Myers.

Pearson.
And if I'm completely honest, I still don't really like the type of game he plays. He's got that LA Kings style of grind it out and throw everything on net hockey. I guess even I have to admit he's producing in spite of not passing my eye test.
Good for him, hope he keeps it up.

I am afraid of a first round match up of Canucks and Jets if the Canucks do end up 1st in the Pacific and has to play the 1st wildcard team.
Blackhawks been heating up lately, would not want them in the first round as well.
Me too, I think we match up poorly with heavy teams. If we get a skill matchup I think we stand a chance.
-
If we're in the 12-15 range I hope we take a strong look at Helge Grans and Jack Quinn.

Wow tough loss for the Flames.
42 - 21 shots for in their favour.

It's going to be a fantastic race this year, Edmonton is currently stomping the Coyotes and might tie Calgary for first temporarily depending on how the Flames fair in their game right now!

Super simple easy to break way:
ageVariable = int(input("Enter an age")) print(f"Age is {ageVariable}")Use input to get the age, and use the int function to convert it to an integer right away, so you can perform calculations.
Print it out using an f-string so you concatenate a string and int together.
Just to elaborate further, you can use that ageVariable in conjunction with an 'if' statement to do your math based on the answer you get.
Not savvy with Python syntax but essentially,
If (ageVariable < 40) {
// do math
}

I hope he does swing at someone with his stick. The moment players go full vigilante is the moment the DOPS will have no choice but to start taking cheapshots seriously.
Jake was definitely out of line with that hit.

Holy $&!# drop Green and get him!

I'm not sure what you mean by this
Hard to explain, but when I watch him it looks like his stickhandling is batting the puck back and forth as opposed to corralling it on his blade.

Would be nice to see some sustained offensive pressure, North South hockey is fun but it isn't reliable.
