Who cares about possession when you are out-competing and out-leadershipping the opposition?

I got confused for a second when it said "There was a brief explosion of interest this week when deposed New York Rangers bench boss John Tortorella was interviewed in Vancouver on Tuesday but the ornery coach is a much more likely candidate in Dallas, where he is set to be interviewed next week.", then I realized the Globe article is a year old. Still valid things though, I guess.
Craig Berube on advanced stats.

@NHLFlyers you mentioned analytics will be key to the team moving forward, can you elaborate at all? #askchief
"There are a lot of stats out there that are very helpful and we have people working for us that break these games down and give us some real good information on puck-possession and how much time were spending in our own end, how much time were spending in the neutral zone and things like that. It really helps us improve and get better."

He runs the Rangers' defense and penalty kill. That a good enough answer?

NHL Draft tickets go up at 1pm EDT today. Anyone else trying to get some?
draft schmaft
I'll probably be there or in studio, how much do they charge for tickets there anyway?

So Pierre, which prospects do you believe will tickle your fancy and make you not stop talking about them or creepily interviewing?

Man it looks so fucking good. LOL at people calling it just another shooter.
LOL at people who can't understand what genre fatigue is.

I definitely dont understand what that is.
Last gen: shooters galore
This gen: more fucking shooters
FUCK SHOOTERS. I don't care if they throw some time bullshit into one, give me something new.

Free if you batter your way through the broken site. I had to curse at it for about 15 minutes before it gave in and surrendered tickets.

Wolfenstein is great.
Watch_Dogs is ... different. Some very odd design decisions, but I like the game overall.

Cats 7th rounder Dman Mackenzie Weegar agrees to an ELC. Kid lead the QJ in +- this year and set a Hallifax record for post season pts. Kid seems like he could be NHLer which is amazing at his pick.
Add in a spunky 20-something sidekick that becomes your love interest.
30 million copies sold.
I like Watch Dogs, but there are moments when the game just feels really empty. I also don't like the main character.
Was kinda interested in Wolfenstein because it's made by ex-Starbreeze dudes but the shooting looked really boring..

W_D has the signs of a game that had a troubled design period. A lot of things feel half-done. And yet I'm enjoying the new things it does - like the remote hacking stuff, that stuff is brilliant.
Acid, I've been burned out on FPS games since CoD4, so I know what you mean. Wolfenstein is different than any FPS I've played over the past 7 years. I think it's because of the SP focus.

You should check out a game called Vanquish. I think the shooting in that game is really really fun. May just be the one shooter that you like lol
I've played Vanquish, it was pretty fun. But I enjoyed it way more for the stupid ass concept and story than the actual shooting. I think Bayonetta is the way better Platinum game

Last gen was annoying when you don't like shooters.

What about a shooter where the only enemy is Dustin Brown. Will also have binary moral choices, left trigger to headshot, right trigger to kneecap.
Well only buy if there is day one, on disc Jarret Stoll enemy DLC.
Only thing that'd get me back into shooters is a new UT.

Only for people who believe indies aren't games. PS4 has plenty of non-shooters.

Only shooter I'm looking forward to is Destiny. Other than that, I would say I'm pretty burnt out on them all...I miss when fighting games and racing games were the best showcase of hardware power.
PS4 doesn't seem right without a Ridge Racer beside it...

I mean, I've been playing Quake Live and Heavy Bullets a lot lately. I'm tired of shooters too, but I can deal with them when they have interesting mechanics surrounding them. Will never play a shooter for the story ever again. Always a fucking mistake.
By quality I mean 'worth my money and time' but to each their own.
Indies are great but when you want a AAA, big budget game your options are basically shooters/open world now. It's lame.

I can't remember the last massive budget game that I really adored. I don't know if there's ever been one.
