There was barely contact, Reilly practically drove himself into the boards, it was borderline comical until they called a penalty.
Also, thank you ducks.

They are the absolute worst. The sad thing is we fired a guy a few years ago. We had a pick from tons of national people. And FSN wanted to hire from within the org and we got even worse.
Fight me!
We pulled it off!
Losing streak finished!
Minnesota can be god damn good when they want to be, good lord.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Yup, there are development decisions that were not the wisest, but I still don't think that Eberle, Hall, and Nuge are "ruined". There's nothing wrong with their individual production.

Their production is good but not enough to carry a team and they can't defend a grandma in a wheelchair coming down the ice even if one of the wheels was broken.
Can they score? No doubt about it. I had Hall as my second pick for a reason (fucker got injured though) but they can't defend and the rest of the team simply isn't good enough.
Funny how you didn't put Yakupov in there...

If it makes you feel better, I accept.
I don't know what angle the TO feed showed, but the way I saw it it was normal contact away from the boards and rielly tried to cut and ended up going head first into the boards, looked nasty, but it was his own doing.
Who cares about Rielly u pansies.
Herectic got the right idea
*bro fist!*
He's got his own issues. He's also the youngest so it's a bit early to label him as "ruined". He's actually showed signs of why he was a first overall this year.Funny how you didn't put Yakupov in there...
It would have been better if the Oilers had put these guys back in the minors for another year, but I hardly think they are ruined because they didn't.

Who are the players 'Toronto' has ruined?
Luke Schenn?
Luke Schenn?
luke schenn ruined himself by gaining too much mass
but they developed schenn into 30 goal scorer james van hockey
fleecing, the most dangerous development of them all

You're both wrong it was a trick question!
Leafs ruined Seguin by
not drafting him
Heh War on Ice has got a new thing now: hypothetical standings
http://war-on-ice.com/standings.html
it tells you how many points each team would have given alternate realities with regulation 3 point games or no loser points
edit: if the league used a 3 point regulation system, Tampa would be in the lead with 128, followed by Rangers with 125, and Anaheim and Montreal with 123

Oh I don't know how long this has been there but there's a goalie pulling efficiency chart thing now: http://war-on-ice.com/pull-the-goalie.html
this is pretty neat. you use sliders to adjust team scoring rates in given situations, then it runs a simulation to test the point at which it would be most effective to pull your goalie.
given the default rates (probably league averages)...
the red and black lines are if you're trailing by 1 goal, and the green and blue lines if you're trailing by 2 goals.
the vertical lines indicate the point where the probability of tying with the goalie pulled is the most increased versus the probability of tying with the goalie in. so ideally that's the point you pull the goalie.

Eugh, I missed a perfectly good Gibson display and appropriate love fest.
