  1. I'll have to take credit for that. I'm one of your new neighbors. Whenever I move into a new house, I bring down the property value for everyone. But seriously, yeah, you aren't the only one to have experienced a decline in value (though don't have the fortune of being a homeowner.)
  2. I'm more upset I wasn't the first person to state that Rinne has achieved that with 0% offensive zone starts/100% defensive zone starts.
  3. Just want to add to my previous comment that I didn't give him enough credit to his talent by merely referring to him as a "rock drummer". He was adept at all kinds of music. He tried his hand at drumming to Jazz and I think did a pretty respectable job.
  4. It didn't really work against the Germans. They only capulated via "boots on the ground".
  5. Damn......RIP arguably one of the best rock music drummers and a real intellect.
  6. Well they were a true expansion club those early years (unlike the gifts the Vegas Knights got). But my point was that NHL GMs rarely get to hire and fire multiple coaches without some kind of on ice success (not talking about Cup wins obviously). Poile fired multiple head coaches AFTER they were routinely making the playoffs. At some point though, the heat will eventually hit him
  7. Poile? His team has made the playoffs for the last five years straight (including a Finals appearance a few years ago). I don’t remotely see a comparison.
  8. People have to realize that not many NHL GMs get to fire two head coaches that they hired unless they have a good on ice track record (multiple postseason history). In fact, offhand, I can’t think of any (though I’m guessing there might be a rare exception).
  9. I think it's too late for Benning to come out of retirement & play on D.
  10. He actually hasn't that bad a stretch of games lately (NOBODY really has looked good these two games outside of a couple players).
  11. He has to be able to stay healthy. Biggest obstacle to his development so far.
  12. At least you don't have an imaginary girlfriend like me ( that and my blowup doll sprung a leak).
  13. 3rd rate (militarily speaking) country isn't of any threat to you guys (at least not while they don't have nuclear weapons). They can do some damage via proxies in various countries (and have done so).
  14. I heard the Iranians told the Iraqi PM they were going to hit “x targets” and the Iraqi PM naturally informed the US. It ain’t a surprise party when the “guest” knows what’s going to happen. Only person that got played worse was Apollo Creed when he faced Clubber Lang.
  15. Isn’t that where that guy (heh, not talking about the guy in that picture) fled to escape from being prosecuted in Japan?
  16. Yeah I’m not naive to think that Iran doesn’t use proxies to do their dirty work. A lot of other countries do (including the ‘Jedi Knights’, guardians of peace and justice in the world).
