  1. The only one of those I haven’t seen is Suspiria. And I still have to watch Roma, You Were Never Really Here, The Sisters Brothers, Searching, and Widows, but so far, my list would be the following (no order): 1. Thoroughbreds 2. Annihilation That’s it. Once I watch the ones above I mentioned, I can finish it up. But if those disappoint, then my Top 5 will become a Top 2.
  2. Termination: Carolina Hurricanes terminate the contract of Martin Bakos, as the Bruins have terminated his contract IRL and signed overseas. @Nail https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/hockey/news/martin-bakos-waived-unconditionally/
  3. It’s a slog, that’s for sure. Once in a while I think about finishing it, because I remember liking certain parts. But it’s not a film that’s really entertaining. The dialogue is typical Tarantino dialogue, which means its quality, but it’s not a terribly clever script, which is understandable considering they’re confined to one location for majority of the film. But at nearly 3 hours long and set in one location, it better be clever, interesting, and entertaining on a consistent basis. This had elements at times, but far too inconsistent.
  4. For me, definitely not his best work. In fact, I’d probably put it right at the bottom. I can usually rewatch his films. I couldn’t with Hateful 8. Tried watching a second time and stopped after 40ish minutes.
  5. The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed the following players: Kerby Rachel: $850k x 1 Lukas Radill: $1.25M x 1 @Tylez @Nail
  6. Didn’t you hear, he’s rebuilding... ...sitting 7th overall.
  7. Just posted same thing in FL, only to come in here and see you thinking the same. Great minds!
  8. Carter Hart gets his first NHL win in his first game. Considering the Flyers lifetime goaltending situation, something tells me that thrusting him in will ruin his career. Carter Hart OTB
  9. Carolina in the market for a defenseman. These injuries.
  10. Movement: IR: Matt Dumba to IR. https://www.nhl.com/news/minnesota-wild-matt-dumba-out-at-least-one-week-with-upper-body-injury/c-303027118 @Nail
  11. Bird Box I didn’t think this would be very good, and I was right. Works much better as a book, which it was, and it did work. If possible to work as a movie, it didn’t work here.
  12. From a terrible future in net, to the following currently in the NHL. Cupboard is stocked: - Mike Smith - Casey DeSmith - Mikko Koskinen - Carter Hart - Adin Hill - Collin Delia
  13. Flyers recall Carter Hart IRL. Playing a 20 year old goaltender behind a team that can’t defend. What could go wrong?
  14. Something tells me I didn’t plan my season well.
  15. I believe there may be two other current Manitoba residents in our league now. So if anyone would like to get together for coffee over the next few weeks, hit me up. My new job has me out in Winnipeg regularly. Would be nice to meet up with some CDCers after all these years. And I swear, I’m not a serial killer.
  16. Thanks to @ActionJax09 for quick negotiations. Happy to have him in the league. I do see he has Josh Mahura and a 1st round pick, so I suggest you reach out to him @Mr.Miyagi, as he really likes Mike Green All kidding aside, really happy to have you in the league!
  17. Movement (Pending Trade Call) Recall: Radim Simek and place on active roster. @Nail
  18. Well, this was the toughest of my players to part with. Back in 2015, I selected Saarela with the very last pick in our draft, only for him to end up getting selected in the 3rd round IRL. This followed by some impressive numbers year over year, as well improved attitude compared to when he was 16 and 17 years old. Not happy to see him go. However, with Julien Gauthier, the need for a IRL Hurricane isn’t as necessary. This was all about adding, hopefully, a Shark who will continue to be paired with Brent Burns for the foreseeable future. Hopefully Simek can continue his impressive play the past 6 games.
  19. Carolina OTB: Oscar Fantenberg. Depth defenseman. Late pick in return. First offer gets him.
  20. Carolina has traded a very special player I’m not happy to see go.
  21. In university, the most annoying people were those in the theatre department who were always “on”. Those who were convinced everyone wanted to see them perform from the time they woke up, to when they fell asleep. They were also the people who were most likely to move to Hollywood, because they knew they would make it. The only thing was that everyone else knew they wouldn’t, because they were truly terrible, but were convinced otherwise. Ed Helms is one of these people to me. He somehow made it. I’m not sure how, but he did.
  22. @JimLahey Pittsburgh Penguins starting goalie had a 48 save win tonight. Matt Murray was seen in a full body cast after bumping into Tom Barrasso before the game.
