  1. I could probably put together a good 20 minute video of the Bruins diving/embellishing but go on
  2. They’ve made the playoffs 42 of their 52 seasons in the NHL. They’re due.
  3. Interesting, and definitely a breath of fresh air from most of the stuff we’ve been getting lately. As much of a stud as Parayko is I think St. Louis would need to add a touch more.
  4. Just please go after Karlsson and someone a little more reliable than Tanev. Stralman maybe? Edler - Stralman Hughes - Karlsson Juolevi - Schenn Brisebois, Biega If you want to count Hughes as new that would be four new faces on the back end, falling in line with Benning wanting to revamp the defense.
  5. I actually watched the whole game and didn’t see anything. Bruins are among the biggest divers in the league. Always have been.
  6. Game 2 was pretty good but this game was much better. I really don’t want to see another New England team win a championship. Thank god the Bucks beat the Celtics.
  7. Notice how the Bruins get siginifcantly less powerplays without Sutherland reffing?
  8. This. Needs to be something like Sandin or Liljegren, or something on that value level. Anything less we shouldn’t consider it imo.
  9. Going again on Tuesday. Gonna need a collective effort to get it past Avatar.
  10. Tanev with cap retention and one of those picks should be more than fair imo. They get a top 4 RH DFD (if he stays healthy), and we get a really good winger for Bo.
  11. Yea that is the sketchy part. That kind of production at that age is fascinating though.
  12. $10.5Mx7 offer sheet for Mitch Marner. Absolute most we could do without giving up 4 1sts. Do you do it?

      Only if you have been sniffing glue ,do you do this deal.

       

      Is Marner a 10.5 million dollar player,NO HE IS NOT!

      Let Toronto try and keep him and implode.

      Marner’s just 22 and scored 94 points in 82 games and is only getting better. How is he not worth that??

      I hope the next CBA offer sheets get nuked. Because no one is using them. All it creates inflated contracts. 

      And good luck if you ever want to make a trade with that team. 

  13. Same with Hughes. Best defense prospect we’ve ever had and people want to trade him because of their obsession that brothers have to play together. I don’t understand it.
  14. If that is the case with Podkolzin I’d be more inclined to take him at 10 now.
  15. What’s everyone’s thoughts on Arthur Kaliyev? 51 goals and 51 points in 67 games as a 17 year old looks amazing.
  16. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/apple-is-finally-killing-itunes-842750/ Apple Is Finally Killing iTunes Farewell to a clunky but world-shattering icon By AMY X. WANG Facebook Twitter Reddit Email Show more sharing options Steve Jobs presents the iTunes Music Store in 2004. Ray Tang/REX/Shutterstock It’s the end of a music era. Nearly two decades after launching iTunes and ripping up the retail-store model of album purchases, Appleis ready to retire the iconic product, according to Bloomberg. During the software keynote at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference in San Jose, California next Monday, the tech giant is set to replace iTunes with standalone music, television and podcast apps. The move, which has been rumored for years now, will align Apple’s media strategy across the board: iPhones and iPads already offer separate Music, TV and Podcast apps in lieu of the centralized iTunes app that lives on Macs and Macbooks. Users can expect the new Music app to offer some of the same functionalities that iTunes currently does — such as purchasing songs and syncing phones — just with a sleeker interface that’s free of the outdated and oft-bemoaned features of the heritage product, and more closely bundled with streaming service Apple Music. RELATED From Rihanna to Fall Out Boy, Hear How Apple's Garageband Changed Music Forever Apple's Newest Innovation Is... the iPod But the scrapping of iTunes’ brand symbolizes a lot, too. By portioning out its music, television and podcast offerings into three separate platforms, Apple will pointedly draw attention to itself as a multifaceted entertainment services provider, no longer as a hardware company that happens to sell entertainment through one of its many apps. That’s crucial for Apple’s future, as the company combats sluggish phone sales with aggressive growth in its services division. At WWDC this year, according to various reports, Apple is planning to buff up other apps including Books, Messages and Mail; it also announced ambitious plans for original video programming featuring the likes of Reese Witherspoon and Steve Carell just a few months ago, in another bid to grow its content presence in entertainment industries. Welcome as the death of iTunes may be to frustrated users, the software will forever deserve credit for the revolution it engineered in the early 2000s. Before iTunes debuted, the music industry was tearing its hair out trying to combat illegal file-sharing on Napster; Jobs’ new product presented the digital era’s first sustainable, user-friendly way to listen to music. Other firms like Sony and Microsoft had toyed with the idea of digital record stores, yet they “were technology companies that knew how to build disc players and hardware, but they weren’t companies that had demonstrated Apple’s sophistication with regard to software,” Warner Music’s vice president Paul Vidich recalled to Rolling Stone in 2013, on the iTunes Store’s 10th anniversary. “It really took a company that was able to bridge those two things and come up with an attractive consumer product.” Pretty shocking but it has been around for awhile so it is time for something new.
