San Jose is in on the Babcock sweeps.

Elliotte Friedman

Sharks have agreed to compensation (like BUF & TOR) if they do hire Babcock... https://t.co/IAtkz0bJSw

Waiting to see Mad Max. Hype!

@CSNNE: Report: #Bruins interviewed ex-Caps GM McPhee – @HacksWithHaggs http://t.co/U9152qr7HN

GMGM getting some interest.

 

[zroid]

All caught up in MCA 2015. Marco the best.

 

[OnPoint]

I'm curious to see who the Sabres hire as head coach. They're also gonna need someone who will use Eichel to his full potential. From what I saw in this tournament, Eichel looked every bit as good as McDavid.

My prayer is Babcock, as though that needs to be said. He'll be good not just for Eichel, but the other kids the team has coming up. That said, there are a lot of good coaches on the market.

I want to say that's Giroux and he's so fucking pale that his light brown shorts just blend in with his skin, but I don't know.

 

[Cake Boss]

Giroux definitely looks like the type if guy that touches cops bums in public.

 

[Curufinwe]

Seguin is a such a goofball.

 

[shadowkat]

Um, is there somebody naked in that pic?

 

[Curufinwe]

MacKinnon video bombs Giroux's interview to change the subject to "his boy Sid."

[FUBAR McDangles]

Hockey players are the worst at keeping clothes on.

Giroux keeps the tradition strong

 

[Quick]

Um, is there somebody naked in that pic?

Giroux is starting a flesh-coloured clothing revolution.

Ni No Kuni seems awesome... but pretty saccharine. I'm not big on anime though I do like Studio Ghibli. I dunno... 40 hours of cutesiness seems rough. Am I mistaken? Is that only how the game starts? Is it just the art style for the main characters and it's otherwise tolerable?

Edit - tried the demo...... never mind

Anybody collect watches here?

I'm not a big watch wearer (haven't worn one in years), but I'm recently seeing the appeal of watches. I just ordered a Citizen watch and was wondering if anyone here can vouch for their quality as watch makers. All the reviews I've read for it have been positive, but an NHL-GAF hot take would be cool, too.

 

[zroid]

Hextall... Hakstol...

 

[Cake Boss]

Lmaoo this coach with no pro experience is so good that they didn't even bother interviewing other established NHL coaches first like Babcock, Mcllelan, Deboer etc.

Interesting move. #Cockwatch is over for Philly

Mm? How do you know they didn't?

What if Babcock, et al turned them down?

 

[GSG Flash]

Hextall hiring Hakstol is hilarious, I thought it was a joke at first.

I love watches, Citizen watches are great mid-range watches. Which one are you getting?

Yeah ok, you don't think that will at all be reported?

 

[jello44]

OK, so like, it looks like the Flyers never talked to Babcock or something... http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/maple-leafs-sabres-in-pursuit-of-mike-babcock/

And McClellan might be on his way to Edmonton.

So.... ¯\_(&#12484_/¯

 

[Cake Boss]

Exactly they didn't bother talking to other coaches and do their due diligence, but went with some guy who coaches the GMs son.

There is a severe lack of Leafs talk in this. Please remedy this immediately.

Jeff Blashill to Leafs plz

 

[Curufinwe]

I would have liked McLellan but since he seems set on staying out West I think a fresh face who works well with younger guys is a great choice with Morin, Gostisbehere, Sanheim and Provorov/Barzal/Crouse/Rantanen/Connor on the way.

Good to know I made a good choice. I ended up getting an AW1361.

Do you recommend any other brands to check out? I wouldn't mind picking up another pair to alternate with.

Game 7 of the Q final is tonight... but doesn't look like either Sportsnet or RogersTV is carrying it :\ lame

I'm sure Shanahan is looking at Leafs Legend Craig Berube for head coach

The true successor to another Leafs Legend HC, Randy Carlyle.

Craig Custance

With the Worlds concluded, Dan Bylsma another name to watch on coaching front. San Jose has received permission to interview him.

[zroid]

is he talking about his "red and green" shots again? (or whatever it is)

he's always going on about that lol

 

[Acid08]

Babdix is visiting SJ today or tomorrow. Don't see him signing here but, hey, nice to know he's at being interviewed.

@ChuckGormleyCSN
Brian MacLellan says Caps in market for top-line RW. #CapitalsTalk

Kessel for Joel Ward

 

[Coldnoodle]

is he talking about his "red and green" shots again? (or whatever it is)

he's always going on about that lol

I don't remember it exactly but basically if the goalie has a sightline of the puck for a half second or more the success rate for shooters is 3% these playoffs.

Holtby was 136/136 against the Rangers.

Basically said that games are being won on broken plays these playoffs.

Success rate on Lundqvist is 2/26 when it comes to broken plays though :lol

The average in the regular season was one goal per 2.2 broken plays.

 

[calder]

is he talking about his "red and green" shots again? (or whatever it is)

he's always going on about that lol

Every guy who thinks he's cracked shot quality ends up sounding like a street preacher standing on a milk carton yelling about the End Times. At first it all sounds rational and a bit promising, but then they start yammering about how a secret math showed them the 'royal road' and now they need RFID chips implanted in everyone at birth and you realize they're just as nuts as the others.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Calder is a crazy person.

MacLellan said a 1RW is "on the shopping list" and "is a priority...you'd like to have more stability there."
