    Feel like Kuznetsov forgot he can't do a drop pass in the shootout.

    Every playoff game will have emotion, I just don't think Canes are anywhere near top of our rivals list at all, but I'm sure it means a little more against them than some random game against Vancouver or something.

    I should say, I'd probably rank Columbus above Carolina even as far as rivals go. Pretty decent round robin game with us and Tampa. Going OT.

    Eh. I guess there's a Southeast connection there, but even with that 7 game series last year the only real fiery highlight was the Ovechkin fight (which was just weird and out of place all on its own). I don't get the sense when we play them the team is really fired up to play against those...

    I mean after the Pens, who am I supposed to hate more than the Rags? Then Caps fans probably have a group including the Isles, Philly, Boston, and Tampa.

    Jordan Reed to 49ers. No way he just suddenly plays a full 16 games and ends up a nice TE2 option behind Kittle right?

    Yeah because those are the two teams I dislike the most that are currently down in their series. Would you want us to have a shot at the #1 pick if we were swapped with Pittsburgh in the standings (a whole 4 standings points when the season was stopped) and lost in the play in round? Frankly...

    Do they already have a newborn or is he just super paranoid about potentially spreading it to her and any little thing possibly affecting her and causing another miscarriage?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I know their reasoning for making completely new players do BFA first is because they wanted them to have some backstory about the most recent stuff to how we got to Shadowlands current story line...which makes sense in a way. The problem is exactly what you and others are noting in that you...

    Canes have gotten a bounce or two, but Rags too many penalties. Although may have spoke too soon, 3-2 now.

    Yeah it's always better when it's something voted on by the players versus media, too. Like how the NHL has Hart Trophy for MVP but also the Ted Lindsay award which is given to the Most Outstanding player voted on by the players...doesn't always go to the same guy, obviously

    But you're not really getting the whole story. I remember seeing something where someone did basically all the story parts of the 4 Legion starter zones outside of Suramar and they hit 50 basically when they finished all those. With BFA it was full completion of Drustvar and Tiragarde Sound...

    Maybe the Elusive Planet 9 Doesn't Exist After All - Universe Today Basically claims that observational biases about when and how we find KBO's made it seem like there was a clumping together of objects that a potential Planet 9 could explain, but in fact there isn't actually a clumping going on.

    I will say I think Mahomes should be #1, #2 at worst if they really wanted to weigh Lamar's regular season last year. The year Mahomes won MVP didn't Donald have 20 sacks that year? As an interior D lineman? I could understand the players going nuts over that.

    I'm not even saying they have to finish dead last. He could think Lawrence is worth it to trade up. Ending up in the top 5 picks is a MUCH easier trade up for #1 than if they are picking 25th or lower like they normally would be (or even in the 15-20 range like you might expect from an average...

    Nobody will remember the political stuff once they figure out Belichick is going to get to tank in a year with no fans to even boo so he can potentially get his next dynasty QB. No but seriously, if that actually happens and Lawrence turns out good? Fuck.

    I thought i had read somewhere it could be a large planet, but with an orbit that could be somewhere between 150-300 AU (for ref, Neptune is 30 AU and Pluto at its furthest is just under 50 AU). That would be fairly difficult to find I would assume.
