  1. Morroco's second goal almost means Canada needs to win out to advance.
  2. Man, the UFC really treats veteran fighters like lame horses. Put Frankie out to pasture... in front of his kids no less. One of my all time favorites. DP was great under fire in that first round. Most of Chandler's punches caught leather. Esparza Wei-Li was a forgone conclusion. Could have saved everyone the time by just dropping off the belt in the middle of the octagon and going home.
  3. Pretty sure the Vet honored before tonight's game has more speed than this team. Guys are stuck in the mud.
  4. LAK Recall Alex Nylander and Mikhail Maltsev and put Henrik Borgstrom on waivers for purpose of assigning to the AHL.
  5. Guy is a loser who used a photo of Bo's kids dressed up for Halloween as an opportunity to whine. I hope Bo asked him for his contact details so that he could drive by and egg his house.
  6. Good luck to @D-Money the rest of the way. LAK remain open for business with players like Jeannot available. Also available to help facilitate trades by taking on contracts/cap dumps.
  7. For those not on Discord, LA Kings have Karlsson, E. Kane, etc. available.
  8. Stewart picked Campbell for the Vezina. He quickly realized he has no insight into the game he was paid to play, so he just says things that will get him attention, even if the attention is negative. There's certainly a precedent for that (e.g., Steve Simmonds). Personally, I would hate to live my life where the object of my profession was to be as inaccurate as possible to gain attention/followers.
  9. LAK place a claim on (1) Zboril and (2) Henrik Borgstrom
  10. 10K and 0 ER across Kikuchi's last six innings. Would be a nice surprise if he could come in for Stripling in the playoffs.
  11. Seems like there are more people in the dugout than in the stands. Great game to listen to if you like the sounds of baseball.
  12. LAK release Brett Connolly, who signed in Switzerland https://swisshockeynews.ch/index.php/shn/11-swiss-ice-hockey/nla/30124-brett-connolly-ready-for-his-debut-with-hc-lugano?utm_campaign=social LAK also release Andrei Altybarmakyan, who signed in the KHL. https://www.hcsochi.ru/media/news/andrey-altybarmakyan-v-amerike-zhil-pryamo-naprotiv-stadiona-no-est-i-opasnye-rayony/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrei_Altybarmakyan#cite_note-6
  13. LAK release Cole Hults, who signed in Italy. https://www.dagenshockey.com/DH/SM/2022/08/03/cole-hults-d-from-tucson-roadrunners-to-hc-bolzano/transfers/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=cole-hults-d-from-tucson-roadrunners-to-hc-bolzano God speed, I don't even know how you ended up on my roster.
  14. In case anyone was wondering: If a regulation game is terminated early due to weather, the results are considered final if the home team is leading. If the home team is trailing, the results are considered final if the game is not in the midst of an inning when the visiting team has taken the lead.
  15. I shouldn't be complaining about a 5-0 lead over the Sox, but the Jays have seven men LOB and Vladdy is responsible for six of them. Seems like 80% of his swinging strikes are at pitches out of the zone.
  16. Evander Kane - Dylan Larkin - Tanner Jeannot Colin Blackwell - Tyson Foerster - Mike Hardman Nick Foligno - Nick Bjugstad - Nic Dowd Josh Leivo - Dakota Joshua - Christian Fischer Erik Karlsson - Nick Blankenberg Dimitry Orlov - Alec Martinez Nikita Zaitsev - Jon Merrill Billy Borgen Jeremy Swayman Sam Montembeault
  17. I wish Canucks fans would learn from lessons of the past. Guys like Brough, Halford, Sekeres, and Price are nothing but audio bloggers. Yes, some of them have journalism degrees. Do they put information they learned 30 years ago to use today? No. What's the lesson to learn? Stop giving these guys any attention. It sounds like Seravalli said a MUCH more watered down version of what Brough tweeted.
  18. Bo has been this season's whipping boy... and some of it has been earned. But I definitely agree that this was all on the CF. I'm still struggling to like this team the way I liked the Donaldson/Bautista/Encarnacion era.
  19. Buck Martinez (rightfully, IMO) calling out the effort of the Jays' best players.
  20. Jansen hitting 2.5 dingers for every 1 double is an instance ratio.
