I thought I had read at one point that the producers specifically referenced the size and scope of the Minas Tirath battle in ROTK for this battle and I'm not sure it was that big in scale. For a TV show though Battle of Winterfell was pretty good. It really was a one sided fight though, the...
Hehe it's pretty crazy. We keep on getting injuries yet somehow still winning games. The good news is it looks like Mrazek is day to day. TvR is indefinite and a big loss on defense. Game 3 is going to be insane.
I actually thought Holtby played well for the most part last night (there were a couple of great saves he made in that first OT) but yea at least 2 of the 4 the Canes scored were on him (the shorthanded one was the biggest gift ever). It was a great series, it took everything to beat the...
I still can't believe it happened. I just had this prevailing thought in overtime that the Canes kept having chance after chance and the Caps were going to wind up with an odd man rush and get it in the end. Everyone is going to talk about the McGinn slide and save in the last 2 minutes of...
This is some game. What a series.
I think the refs have basically decided they aren't calling anything anymore. There were a couple of times where they easily could of called penalties in that OT.
I think the difference is in some ways it hurts the Canes more due to depth. Caps have enough depth across the entire lineup at least somewhat mitigate the loss to Oshie. When someone like a Svechnikov goes down, we have to replace him with an AHL player with no playoff experience (barely any...
Haha agreed. I told you we were going to be a pain in the ass.
As far as G7, I feel like at this point the Canes are playing with house money. Most would not have expected this to go 7 games, much less winning it. Plus they've been playing these last 3-4 games down basically 3 fowards...
I'm going to assume all these guys know that the Night King has a dragon from Tormund/Beric? Because there's been zero conversation about that (especially during the war room scene). Or did I miss it?
For as much crap the writing of this series gets (most of it justified), the whole fireplace roundtable with Tormund and then the knighting of Brienne was great. Tormund over there clapping his hands like a proud boyfriend.
I'd feel more confident if we weren't putting a triage unit out there. We are getting nothing out of Aho this series and he's the All Star on the team. I always thought winning Game 5 was going to be a tall order for the Canes just wasn't expecting an ass kicking like that (it was basically...
Thought it was a good episode. Basically showing how all these characters are choosing to spend their (potential) last night.
I find it hard to believe that they are going to wrap up the whole Night King saga in the next two episodes. I can see where maybe he and remnants of the undead army...
Hehe, I'm going to assume you're more sober now (sorry I wasn't really online that much yesterday). No I'm not going to take the bet, mainly because with the injuries the Canes have plus the momentum the Caps have after Game 5 it's not a smart bet. I mean we've gotten to the point where we...
As someone who lives here, I can say that the Raleigh area is very underrated when it comes to fan enthusiasm for hockey. Yea the Canes have been bad for awhile so fans check out but when they are good, the fans engage and are really into it. It's a small market, only pro team in the area but...
We'll see what happens. If the Canes can take Game 4 then I honestly think the series is up for grabs. It'll be tough because we're shorthanded but the building will be just as loud as game 3.
As far as the fighting, I don't think you're ever going to completely get rid of it in the sport...
Agree that it was pretty dumb to start a fight with Ovechkin although to be fair they both had been going at it all series. Svech is a rookie and sometimes that's how you learn when and when not to get into fights. It just sucks he got hurt. Kid is not a fighter, never been in a fight (that I...
Looking forward to Caps - Canes gm 3. PNC is going to be loud and crazy win or lose. Just wish I was able to go, checked stubhub and nosebleeds were already going for close to $200 a head.
Episode was very good. So a good start. Couple of points:
1. A little disappointed we didn't get any undead army/night king/ice dragon this episode.
2. Bronn being sent out to take out Jaime and Tyrion, I actually think it's possible it happens the other way around (Jaime is forced to kill...
Would of preferred the Isles but it's really pick your poison for Carolina since they didn't do great against the 3 potentials (Caps, Isles, Tampa). That being said hoping it will be a good series. If we can steal one of the first 2 in DC I think we have a chance to at least get this to 6...
I've been playing BL2 and I will say the texture pack does make a difference.
As far as exclusives, not really sure how it affects me since I almost never buy games day 1. My preference is always going to be Steam because of the size of the library I got there.
Agree although again Canes have this trend lately against really good teams where they will play with them for 2 periods and then it falls apart in the 3rd. They play well enough to win but it needs to be for the entire 60 minutes. They mostly been doing that but you want to see it in big...
Agree with this. I don't mind the classic start but the 3 month unlocks is too long imo. Make it minimum 2 months and then we're talking. We've been on Mangler and it's been great, community seems decent so far. I think the long unlocks though are going to have an effect on the server long term.
The most amazing thing about Everquest beyond everything else is that despite all it's warts, there still has never been any other game (no matter the genre) that generates the type of drama/backstabbing/general bullshit that EQ does. It really is one of those things that you probably will...
Life long Canes fan checking in hehe.
Seriously, they have been playing crazy good and been pulling wins out of their ass. Was kind of disappointed that played such a horrible 3rd period against Tampa although I know Tampa is on another level right now. Big win in OT against Montreal last night.
It is what it is, I don't even mind the queue. What's annoying is after awhile both PC's just get that timeout message and we have to restart the process again. If your going to institute a queue, don't boot people out of the queue. I do find it pretty interesting that after 20+ years...
It would also have to be on an international scale since the movie is making just as much money overseas. Don't let logic get in the way of a good conspiracy though.
Movie is half way decent and appeals to millions of little girls. Add in it's a Marvel movie she's doing 'fan service' like below and no one should be shocked at the opening weekend. Let's see how the 2nd week does.
'Captain Marvel' star Brie Larson surprises cinema, serves up popcorn
He has also made SJW comments (Mark Ruffalo too) but that doesn't seem to stop a top of people from seeing Avengers.
A majority of hollywood thinks like Brie does, the only difference is she's outspoken about it.
Umbrella Academy isn't Marvel though, it's Dark Horse (Hellboy, etc.).
I got to admit, I'm not sure how good it would be if they are all kids again in S2. The actor who played five was pretty good but you may not get that with all of them.
I got the impression that both Hazel and Cha Cha were superhuman (really anyone from the Commission including boss lady since she survives an explosion).
They haven't announced it yet but rumors about Netflix scouting locations for S2 seem to indicate it's going to happen. Watched this with the wife, thought it was very good. Whoever said this is like X-men behind the scenes in their 'real life' is spot on. Number 7 is basically the equivalent...
You misunderstand, I could care less whether you speak out or not. I was speaking in generalities that the average movie goer is ignoring whatever political noise there is that surrounds this movie. There are probably a decent number of reasons for it but probably near the top is that they are...
You can say whatever you want. You can vote with your wallet however you want. All I'm saying is most don't know or don't care (or both) what Brie Larson says because who the hell is Brie Larson and why should they care what a celebrity's opinion is on anything really. They just want to watch...
Yea Mangler would be more ideal if there wasn't 3 month unlocks. I pretty much know for a fact I'm not going to be on this server for a year just to get to PoP, nostalgia doesn't last that long. Best scenario would be Mangler exp rate with 2 month unlock and start at Luclin.
