For sure I agree NR showed his true colors standing on the sidelines while VaJ did his thing but to my untrained eyes on MB, what an overspend.

Cuz he cries, acts and fights like a toddler when he gets consistently washed out by an olineman? 🙂

Yup that’s an outstanding rule. Definitely a keeper.

From the Sportsnet staff: 'To say the Nashville Predators‘ slow start to the season is confusing, after a summer filled with notable acquisitions, would be an understatement. Just ask general manager Barry Trotz. “Sometimes you can’t explain the unexplainable,” he said Thursday when asked by reporters about the Predators’ 9-17-6 start to the year'. I'll take a stab at explaining it. You can't buy a Stanley Cup. You can't simply buy high priced talent expecting them to gel automatically and integrate with their existing talent and work as a well oiled machine. I know it's petty but really hoping the Predators continue to crash and burn. No sympathy here.

Another random question popped into my mind last night out of no where: What achievements can be directly and/or indirectly attributed to RA's CFL leadership tenure?

Rangers have gone from Stanley Cup contenders to everything’s for sale mutiny is on hand in very short order. That’s a shame to quote Jerry Seinfeld eating his popcorn.

Well if you took the bolded sentence above at face value, not sure why you're not sure whether he was fired or retired.

Paging Brenden Dillion type defensemen, please come in. Over.

Sure but just from an elite athlete perspective, from an Olineman to a scat back and everything in-between, there are some (but not all) consistencies in what science is telling them to put into their bodies to help with performance.

Being outshot doesn't necessarily mean bad. It's where the shots are coming from is the important part. And if the analytics are suggesting the Jets are giving up way too many high quality opportunities for their opponents, then yes adjustments, additions are needed stat. Imagine having Helle and a lock down D, defensive scheme in place? Success.

The low scores across the board sans Hamilton on nutrition and diet fascinate me being that these men are professional athletes. Is this a cost issue?

Bring your popcorn. 🙂

Jets looked lost at times in the third, seemed like little structure. Lost a lot of stick and board battles. Helle played on top of his game. Had PL’s number. A win is win. Take it move on.

Stanley with a giveaway right at the end of the second bailed out by Helle. Groan.

Apparently Savard/Evans can cross check and check from behind as they please.
