NHL Off-Season 2015 |OT2| What are the Odds of Hockey in Vegas?

Rare Replay made me turn on my Xbone again after months. Perfect Dark feels so much faster...it's probably more the lack of slowdown on the N64 version than anything else.

Before that it was all Wii U, SSB and Splatoon <3 need to play the Splatoon 2.0 update still though.
 
I went to a huge flea market and got a ton of games.

I got Def Jam fight for NY, both PS1 SpiderMan games. Both Yakuzas on PS2. RAW2 for Original Xbox and I got ... Kinda a nostalgic thing because I used to rent this game a lot as a kid..Star Wars Episode One: Jedi Power Battles.. and all under 60 Bucks.

I think I made a good choice with The Man from UNCLE. Ultimately didn't want anything heavy on a Friday evening.

I know nothing about the TV show, but the movie was a blast. Recommended.

I'm going to watch Straight Outta Compton next week.

I loved UNCLE. Ridiculously fun film that is Guy Ritchie just writing a love song to spy movies.

The whole aesthetic of the movie was on point.

I loved the panels that popped into the screen anytime Solo and Kuryakin were separated from each other, but are still in the same area.

The costume design is great too.

And people talking about how weird it is to have an American play a Russian, and a Brit play an American need to see the movie. Armie Hammer and Henry Cavill own their roles.

I'm going to buy a WiiU finally later this week.

I already bought Bayonetta 1&2 and Smash back in January.

Since I already have those to start with, I don't need anything else for awhile but I'm guessing Splatoon? My buddy in Tokyo only plays that nowadays he told me.

Am told by 2 NHL sources that #Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs forced employees to pay tax on 2011 Stanley Cup rings. About $7K per ring.

Some support staff couldn't afford the tax up front, so players stepped up and covered the cost so they could get rings too.

Pretty sad

Got to A- Rank in Splatoon

AT LAAAAST

Rainmaker is so damn awesome.

I'm still a C. I think I play turf wars too much.

I think I'm going to see UNCLE this weekend. It looks like crazy fun.

He's in great shape but its his game that needs to be fine tuned, not his body. I think this could be the critical year of his career. So far hes all potential but lacking consistency and sound decision making. A part of that is Therrien, for sure, but if hes the elite player we want him to become, then he should be able to overcome a crappy coach and force his hand.

With Kassian and Semin, Montreal finally has the wingers necessary for him to succeed, Solo.

Well as far as we know he's still playing on the wing himself!

Anyways, just saying that I feel like the bridge deal, AKA the next 2 seasons, will tell if he's going to remain a good NHL player or become a great one and a franchise centrepiece.

A scout very close to Timmins has all but guaranteed that he will be playing center this season. Even Therrien acknowledged it for the first time last week.

Well that would be amazing, but it begs the question: who is being shifted to wing or who is being traded?

We all want DD gone, but MT is riding his dick so hard so we know it wont be him. He'll still be 1C (barf). We all know it.

So that leaves Pleky or Eller. My guess is, if AGally IS moved to C, they wont trade either and Eller will be shifted back to wing. Where he sucks.

DD wasn't the #1 for the majority of the playoffs. Seems like Therrien has clued into the fact that he will never be that guy. Opening C's will very likely be

AGally
Pleks
Eller

DD will be stuck on the wing unless Bergevin can find some GM dumb enough to trade for him, he played much better on the wing last season anyways.

I have a VERRRRRY hard time not seeing MT having DD centering Patches, but obviously I'd love to be proven wrong.

Thankfully someone got me NHL 15 as a gift, didn't pay a dime for that garbage!

I honestly think Eller will be traded this season. I can see DD moving to wing.

A guy came into my place of employment today with a Blackhawks cap and a cute girl. After I commented on it (the former, of course), his lady informed me that they were at the UC for the championship winning game.

That bro is living the life, I tell you what
