Why are the Leafs points dumb? You get a point for being tied after 60 minutes not for losing the game. The fact the Leafs have been tied in 15 games shows that they're in alot of hockey games during the season. Back in the old NHL there used to be tie games and both teams got a point, how is this different?

17:52 yesterday, I saw some of the highlights, he had some chances and even got power play time with the Sedins.
I'm actually thinking about seeing a game now.
because the point of the OT is to get a clear winner, if you have a winner, you shouldn't have half a loser
You win or lose the game. That point just promotes bad, boring hockey and rewards bad teams with a good system
it's not just about the Leafs btw, Habs are also a bad team with a good system and we shouldn't be rewarded for it

If they get in and have significantly less wins than the team below them that's gonna suck. As it is now if you sort just by wins it'd be Boston and Tampa in with Toronto and NY one win behind Tampa, so it'd still be close. I think of the teams in the race whoever gets in will end up with the most wins anyway so it won't be a big deal.

Is imB@$k actually Basque?
nope!
Whoops
Habs GAF, when can we start talking about the putrid production of Patches, Radulov and Danualt, our "top line", over the past 6 weeks? AGally had 2 bad games before he got shamed and demoted. Yet he outproduced all 3 of those guys even during his bad games, and continues to do so now on the third line lol. But he's the post-Subban scapegoat now, so his leash is so short that a bad 2 game stint drops him 2 lines, a position, and 5 minutes of icetime per game. Montreal is a fucking ridiculous market.
Since CJ took over:
- Patches: 11pts/17gp (0.65ppg); points in 8 of 17 games
- Radulov: 6pts/14gp (0.43ppg); points in 3 of 14 games
- Danault: 5pts/17gp (0.29ppg); points in 4 of 17 games
- Galchenyuk: 13pts/17gp (0.76ppg); points in 11 of 17 games
It's time to split Radulov and Patches (hell, it was time 2 weeks ago). Whatever magic they had is long gone.

Radulov is out of juice he needs a little break
Pacioretty is just Pacioretty and I don't want to shit on him now, the way he played before that slump was ridiculous. I'm thinking it'll pick back up soon, maybe
Danault is trying hard but he's in the wrong seat
Galchenyuk is ok, just confused

That Leafs-Habs playoff series would be so good though.

Oakland Raiders to Vegas seems like a done deal now, pretty crazy how they went from 0 pro sports teams to 2 very quickly.
See that's the problem though, and why our playoff run is doomed this year. First line RW? Out of gas. He isn't going to get his legs under him again until October. First line LW? He's as enigmatic as ever, and after beasting for 35 games, he's once again invisible with autopilot on. First line C? He actually belongs on the third line. Third line LW? He actually belongs on the first line, but he's not consistent enough and defensively shakey.
We are so dead against the Rangers.
But we have Carey Price and Shea Weber, and Rags aren't perfect

Both of these teams are going to produce amazing documentary content for our kids' generation.
Glachenyuk talks too much, and posts pictures of himself on instagram, so naturally hockey culture rejects him.
Danault just works real hard, and is a real good pro, so even when he sucks for 20 games coaches don't give a fuck.
I'm just amazed Radulov has been given the benefit of the doubt, so I don't want to rock the boat too much on his struggles, lest he be driven out of town.

You guys are beating us in 5 if we don't get our shit together quickly here in these last 2 weeks.

My favourite baby food is pear just so you know.
Would be nice to golf in Switzerland.
First time I played it I went through the whole thing with the same person.
The feels...
I'm glad I waited for it to show up on PS+ tho... fuck dropping $20 for something shorter than a movie.
Worth playing multiple times. Solo, online, looking for all the secrets. Thatgamecompany should be coming out with their new game this year.
EDIT: I don't think the game is shorter than a movie. Maybe shorter than Lord of the Rings Bloated Edition though.
Thats why they need to change it to 3 points for a regulation/OT win, 2 for a SO win. Make the loser point worth less.
I dunno. Smell hrtc's breath.

I like how somebody really didn't want this video so they locked 2 separate threads about it.

Divorce, womanizing reputation, father's death, injuries, rest of the field catching up, etc. It's been a slow but steady decline for him. Tiger could've been the GOAT.
My run time clocked in at ~80 minutes, I was good with playing it just the once.
As much as I'm actually really enjoying MEA despite its technical&writing flaws, I cannot wait to watch this after work. Dunkey is the best

Dunkey made a great video on why this game is crap.
Did you run into any elegant white journeyman? Just curious. I'm not gonna pester you about getting a white robe yourself.
That crash was a massive turning point, though. I read a great article that broke it all down pretty succinctly, including how he began to focus on military training obsessively.

My recovering Tiger Fan buddy believes with all his heart that it was the Navy Seal training thing he got into. Pushed his body past its breaking point.
edit: Uh, yea. Like Socreges said.
That longform article..

I don't follow golf because it's a boring, dying sport but... isn't he the GOAT? I thought he was the logical choice before his decline
I have no idea what any of this means, so probably not.
Most will see Jack's 18 major wins and call him the GOAT.
I generally don't care about any GOAT discussions for any sport.
