  1. In his last 10 games in the KHL Jake had 1 assist and is -2, sitting at 9 goals, 7 assist and is -5 in 36 games. Currently tied for 9th on his team in scoring. One cannot exactly say that he has taken the KHL by storm... https://en.khl.ru/stat/players/1097/all/spartak/
  2. Great hint, thank you. Had never heard of it, but I the 2k series on the wii was great, I actually played the last version and apart from the clunky controls it was already more of a sim than any EA game ever was.
  3. Dirty or offensive words are censored. That's nothing new and has always been the case. Certain words starting with the letters "f", "c" "a" or "L +E" are just not acceptible in public. You can shout, sing and praise his name in private.
  4. Finally a game that doesn't start in the middle of the night for me. 4-1 Canucks. Boeser, Ekman Larson, Putgoalzin, Hughes, EP with 3 assists.
  5. Everything he said sounded highly convincing and informative, like he can still teach everyone on the team something new, even the veterans. He is demanding and challenges guys, all while being charismatic, approachable and entertaining. Looks like a fantastic coach.
  6. Off topic: With no games for a while and me being miserable because I could not take my flight home during Christmas due to illness I needed something to cheer me up. This always works. Thanks Henrik und Daniel. These guys were amazing!
  7. We could surprise the enemy. Play one line with only centers and attack through the middle, the next two lines play with three wingers each and flank the opponent. No, better four wingers and only one defenseman. They wouldn't even know what is happening to them.
  8. The Canucks are and have always been my favourite NHL team and I follow them more closely than any other sports team. When they lose, my day is ruined, when they win, it is saved. But I also cheer for the Nürnberg Ice Tigers, my local hockey team when I lived in Germany. I also like JYP, my local team living in Finland. Then I support SpVgg Greuther Fürth and Borussia Mönchengladbach, both German football teams. My favourite basketball teams are the Milwaukee Bucks (who eventually rewarded me after twenty-five years of mostly suffering) and occasionally I side with my son when he cheers for a team in a game that I have no horse in. Then there are several individual athletes in several sports that I cheer for. Aside from national teams of course. What does that make me on the true fan-o-meter? Am I "worthless", "clueless", "retarded"?
  9. He worded it like the effort level was good, but a lot of mainly defensive fundamentals were lacking. More improvement to come.
  10. 26 games, 1 goal, 6 assists, a +2 in 15:12 of average icetime. He didn't play last game, the game before he had only 4 mins of icetime. Not sure whether he is injured or has played himself out of the lineup. He was playing a lot at the beginning of the year and the team was losing. Recently Jukurit have been winning 6 in a row (where have I seen that before...?), but Jurmo's icetime was reduced. His teammate, Petrus Palmu is 4th in league scoring (27p in 29 games), just behind Lukas Jasek, who is 2nd (30p in 27).
  11. Nah, just juggle all the lines blindly for each practice, have totally different lines in the next game and wonder why they never develop any consistency or chemistry.
