Kings can go back in the bin.

And now for my hot take: the Kesler deal is good. The Kesler is good. He is a good Kesler and deserves good money and extension time. Wanna know how over the cap floor we were? Not very much.

Thank you GM Quick for organising it that way.

Happy birthday Marvie, enjoy your xbone birthday present.

I want to get into Xcom (never played) but I assume the controls aren't as good as PC?

X-Com 100%. Controls work great on the iPad and it's addictive as hell and the game play is pretty engaging. For someone who doesn't really game anymore, X-Com had me hooked for a long time.

 

[bonesmccoy]

FTL won't give you any performance issues, but XCom has much more content.

Lots of replay value in both.

Why not get each one?

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Agreed.

No

Really can't go wrong with either of them.

FTL is amazing. You'll love it one moment and hate it the next but always come back for more.

FTL ppl I recommend playing Out There sometime

Bracco <3

i'm seriously shocked that this kid made it out of the 1st round.

I'm not so sure about the 1st round but there's still a huge bias regarding size in the NHL so it's not that surprising.

 

[Red_Man]

I eagerly await Bracco signing in the SHL in 3 years thanks to the Dopey prospect curse.

I want to fight you but deep down I know I can't for the truth in this statement.

The leafs let kozun down, kozun didn't let us down

I want to fight you but deep down I know I can't for the truth in this statement.

Why you stabbing me in the back, kave? Whyyyyyyyyy

Also... here's something to note: how often do you see me hype a prospect BEFORE the draft? Bracco is the first time

 

[Samyy]

Wait whats the Dopey prospect curse :O

 

[Red_Man]

Wait whats the Dopey prospect curse :O

Dopey hyping up every Leafs prospect / player in existence and then they fall flat in the NHL

 

[DopeyFish]

Wait whats the Dopey prospect curse :O

I l&#299;ked kozun and he signed in europe

I guess i also liked blacker (who injured himself and lost his way) and kronwall (who broke his leg and fell out of favor with the leafs)

I blame those last 2 on management!

Dopey hyping up every Leafs prospect / player in existence and then they fall flat in the NHL

That's not fair. The only player to get the true force of the dopey hype machine was Kadri.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

I wont be surprised if the ducks win the cup next year -_-

It's going to suck.

No it won't. Don't you want to celebrate with our Mexican food? You're invited.

Why will it suck? Nobody will taunt you, because nobody will remember your weird grudge.

Everyone will be happy.

 

[apocalidiot]

As the the champion of the 2015 NHL-GAF Playoff Bracket challenge, I do decree, that the Kings of Los Angeles shall win the cup, to the chagrin of many of thee.

does anyone have a link for this? I never looked at my bracket after I filled it out

One of these days I'll beat the end ship. Maybe.

We traded Bonino and DSP, yet kingslunk isn't grateful.

Jake Gardiner. God, I can't count the amount of posts in here about Jake Gardiner.

 

[Quick]

Off-topic: just finished Arkham Knight. Wow, what a game.

I was lukewarm on it in the beginning, but it ended in spectacular fashion. And it's one of the rare games that makes me want to complete all the side missions. I did almost every side mission, with Riddler's stuff being the only one left.

If you guys want some comedy, this thread will give you comedy.

Ronda Rousey takes a shot at Mayweather beating women, Mayweather fans come out and actually defend him.

Chicago will move to the Eastern Conference by 2035?

 

[Calamari41]

With two Vegas teams, two Phoenix teams, Portland, Humboldt, and Temecula being added by then... something will have to give.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

Ooh Temecula. Can go wine tasting then watch hockey. Plus by 2035 we'll be in that mini ice-age and everyone will be playing hockey.

JapersRink did a neat analysis of how successful teams are compared with how much money they spend

notes:
y axis = wins
x axis = relative spending
grey line = league average

The Rangers have this unique strategy where they are least successful when spending more money

Very interesting. It doesn't seem to matter how much the Ducks spend.

The Leafs haven't crossed the streams yet. So close.

Marvie, how's the Xbox?

I thought about getting it yesterday during the Prime sale, but I didn't like the bundle on sale in Canada (Xbox One with "Refurbished" Ryse or something like that) for $340.

Uh.....I just ordered it yesterday. I have no idea yet. :lol

 

[Delryk]

Marvie's back on the MS train.. w000p.

actually getting a ps4 this weekend me thinks.. its good to have both. I want some JRPG to play.. and No Man's Sky!

 

[Quick]

Uh.....I just ordered it yesterday. I have no idea yet. :lol

lol wow. For some reason, I thought you already got it.

hrtc would be disappointed knowing you didn't pay for one-day shipping to get the Xbox One delivered faster.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Saw Ant-Man last night. Stay until the end (a mid-credits and post-credits scene). Surprisingly good, comparable to Guardians of the Galaxy.

A review called it "grounded", which seems appropriate: after Ultron, we needed a Marvel movie on a smaller scale. Can definitely see the Wright influence, and maybe where he butted heads with Marvel.

 

[TUSR]

So how about that Japan thread in OT.

I'm mostly upset with that Canada thread. I figured the world could've looked past the imperialism, obesity, racism, crime, and indignity of America, but I guess everyone's gotta be petty about not living here.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Interesting to hear that about Ant-Man. Again the Marvel 'b' movie ends up better than the steaming turds known as 'The Avengers' films.

As a Marvel Studios fan, I celebrate Joss Whedon's departure from Avengers films. That guy is way too far up inside his own ass.

Honestly, knowing that the post-credits tie-in is the most referenced part about this movie is endemic of what Marvel's doing wrong creatively and it doesn't really inspire much confidence in Ant-Man. I'll still see it, but my expectations are well in check.

 

[TheKaeptain]

And he isn't good at the making movies thing. Guy has no idea what composition is. The editing in his movies usually kills the pacing. He writes movies like he writes for TV.
