  1. The anger in this thread... Hopefully today kicks people off the bandwagon so that we can just get to enjoying postseason baseball.
  2. I'm not saying he's more talented, but I thought Gaunce was the most 'NHL ready' of the guys battling for spots.

      He's the most responsible two-way guy for sure. Kinda wish he'd been given a look at C csuse he's a better 4th line fit than skill guys like McCann/Vey.

      Gaunce seems more ready than Virtanen despite last game. But with Kenins sent down too, it looks like Virtanen has got the spot.

      i'm sure gaunce will be back up at some point...virt and mccan n next year....

  3. The Hitmen games I watched last year did not look like they were being coached by someone with pro experience. From top to bottom they were system-less. If we want Jake to become better off the puck and better positionally, there is an argument to make that he won't get this playing in Calgary.
  4. Man this is hilarious. Didn't think you were allowed to show guys getting plastered on live TV. Poor lady with the eyeliner lol.
  5. Very few players on the team will be a deciding factor in winning or losing. It is about whether JV can help the team more than another player.
  6. Virtanen could help them win, and Benning wants a team that experiences more Ws than Ls, even if it means bowing out early in the playoffs. I think it is totally fine to disagree with Benning's strategy, but once Benning's strategy is understood, it should make sense why he's going to try and put together the team that gives him the best change of winning on game day, even if that means (1) getting bounced early in the playoffs, and (2) drafting in the middle of the first round.
  7. Connor, it's Mess!

      if im Connor, id file for harrassment lol

  8. If Sox and KC lose tonight, Gibbons might feel that its a real good idea to give a few guys a rest tomorrow evening. Jays could lose both and still remain ahead of the Royals. I kind of hope they use the opportunity to put the pedal to the metal, give themselves some distance between themselves an Royals, giving them time to rest vets worry-free.
  9. I read a CBC interview where she supported one gang member's assertion that he joined a gang because of systemic racism from the Caucasian community. Was this theme emphasized in the film?
  10. It's good to ask questions, don't feel discouraged. I've been a casual fan a long time but have learned quite a bit by asking questions on this board.
  11. Easier to have more home-runs when you have the green-light to swing hard at every pitch (hence the strike-out count). Trout is arguably one of the best defensive CF in the game, and the CF position is more difficult than first base. Trout has 20 more hits than Davis, better OBP, better SLG (despite fewer HRs), and better OPS.
  12. Don't get me started. The only thing my girlfriend loves more than Shonda Rhimes is using her name to antagonize me. Just utter garbage.
  13. Hahaha, no, no, no. I'm talking first four season of 'non-incestuous overtones' Dexter.
  14. Shonda Rhimes is responsible for 'How to get Away with Murder' You guys should really know better. I've watched two episodes of Mr. Robot, so far they've been good. Its basically a perfect replica of Dexter, except its a hacker instead of a serial killer.
  15. No wonder I saw Kawasaki give his life to try and make that catch the last walk-off I saw.
