    Both pretty equal at this point, when goals are getting called back for literal inches.

    Carlson signing with the Lightning feels so wrong.

    Thank goodness we didn't end up with Trouba. Our D a little shaky overall, but hopefully Sandin can come back mostly healthy before end of the year. Caps forward group won't have a real super star or stud top line, but the depth will be pretty crazy.

    He already knows he's getting $100M+ on this deal, why not get it somewhere he can compete for a Cup, too? Just my guess at what he's thinking.

    That's rough. Great fan base and a franchise just itching to climb to relevance but can't get big names to go there.

    NHL 2025-2026: Canada's Quest to Defeat Bettman and Claim the Cup

    Love what we're doing so far. With adding guys to top of the lineup, roster spaces at the bottom were going to be tough to come by, and too many guys to all try and clear waivers. Getting some mid picks for guys like Lapierre and Chisholm instead of potentially losing them to waivers is smart.

    Only the top 8 of the 3rd place teams go through, right?

    Having more games because of more teams and more games against weaker comp as a result this is inevitable.

    It'll age poorly by the end (assuming we don't end up moving him after Year 5 or something), but if cap keeps going up, it'll look less bad. When you're a team with no real terrible contracts, and everyone seems to only want to go to the same 4 teams lately (Vegas, Minny, Dallas...

    Ovi plays LW. And if he comes back, it'll likely be as a 3rd line roll at 5v5/PP specialist. You move one of the right guys to their off wing on the left, and role Older Protas brother, guy that moved to LW, Ovi as your LW in the top 9. Beauvillier perfectly fine as a 4th line LW.

    Tuch sign and trade to Caps. 8 years, $10.5M per. I know the cap is rising, so it'll be ok for a couple years, but that will be ugly in a few seasons. Definitely better forward group for this year, though. Crazy. Still have $12.5M in cap space.

    Kinda love this. I know Kyrou had a down year last year, but St. Louis was shit. Should be quite the upgrade over McMichael, and Gastrin didn't have the most impressive year after getting drafted. Still having #18 overall from Anaheim in the Carlson trade makes moving our 1st much easier, too.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    They did mention being able to jump off at islands, so who knows. I know they said the major limiting factor will be some areas are just too high level for the party at the start of the game. Even "zones" like from Rebirth won't be finish everything there before moving on, some areas will only...

    Most are compared to simple "possibilities" in the lifestream, and don't exist for very long. They do need to kind of elaborate on the whole thing, and they have hinted the title refers partially to Sephiroth and what exactly is going on. Zach supposed to represent a lot of that, but whether...

    There's a bit of a further conundrum with the white materia, in that the events in Remake (Part 1) "drained" Aerith's white materia of whatever was inside (most likely memories, as the whole bit of her and Red XIII seeming to know the future during/up to the end of Part 1 they seem to have...

    Eh, Caps only lost Game 1 to Vegas, and that only on a missed call Reaves cross checking Carlson in front of our net to create room to score. After that pure gentleman's sweep.

    Final Fantasy VII Remake

    They did say some sections would be visited out of order. Obviously Wutai was a likely component of that, since it was completely optional in the OG and people visited it either somewhat early or not until fairly late in the game. Changing when we go to Rocket Town could be part of that...

    Btw, they confirmed Rocket Town is in the game, one of the later areas (assuming space mission part?). Can pretty much bet stuff like Rocket Town, snowboarding, undersea stuff with submarine and Emerald will be reveals in later trailers.

    Kinda felt a bit like the different roles from XIII, as well. Hamaguchi confirmed in the Max interview each character will have a total of 4. Have to assume some variation between characters. Cross platform on release is the fucking best, apparently there is gear sets, as well.

    That stat that since '03 or something teams that won a Game 7 in their previous series are 7-1 v teams coming off a sweep was pretty nuts.

    I thought they had stated no more DLC, but who knows what they'll do after 3rd one I expect multiple different bundles of all 3 games with X features, etc. I'm far more optimistic than most, since they kind of ended Rebirth how I expected...with obvious mystery to mess with everyone and...

    I know heading into 7.0 they said they wanted to go away from older FF jobs and come up with more unique to XIV stuff. Agree with @Juvarisx , the armor they could do for that could be so sick.

    They will be tank and physical ranged dps, this has been pretty well guessed for all of 7.X.

    Most of us given the time between stuff like 6.5 and 6.55/6.56 were thinking expac might not have been until Feb/March '27. January doesn't seem too bad. It's always weird at end of expansion when X.5 and X.55 both act as semi major patches.

    So final predictions for 8.0? We doing some isles somewhere on the Source? Void expansion (13th)? Or some other wildcard loc (not Meracydia)? Given how important the Key obviously has become, I can't imagine there isn't some shard travel involved one way or the other. Maybe a half...

    As someone who attended Starrcade 97, I never thought of that, that actually makes a lot of sense. I just hope they don't drop the ball. I was worried about the WM result, but it was perfect rub for him.
