Caps first team in NHL history with 39 wins through first 52 games. Shootout kind of affects that stat though since we have 3, plus the OT changes.

Boston got smoked, good lord. Caps/Preds was fairly sleepy for first 40 min outside of a fuckload of penalties, little more O all around in the 3rd.

Who was it that suggested a reality show of "Billy" Football and Ron Mexico in Vegas? Now that I would watch.

Interested in seeing Trotz back in Nashville, although not his first trip back or anything. But still going to watch the Caps, I'll probably catch the Lucic highlights on On the Fly later.

Snyder isn't GM. Nor is Vinny Cerrato (his right hand man) involved anymore. McCloughan wouldn't touch Manziel. Chances of him ending up as Cousins' backup are basically 0.

Please Jerry. Do it.

Yeah the cap credit thing is very strange. Overall pretty much works out as a 2nd round pick for Phaneuf. The price makes sense giving they're taking on all of the salary. Have to say a win for Toronto especially trying to clear space for a certain free agent this summer.

Pretty much a salary dump. Ottawa didn't have to give much up but I guess taking on all of his salary was the important part of the deal for Toronto.

Hahahaha that's fucking great. Decent deal they signed him to as well. Cap hit is a little high, but 5 years is a lot better than 7 or 8. Also No move for only the first 2 years I believe then a list of teams he can be moved to after. Not a bad deal for the player or the team.

Miss the days of the NFC Beast. Long way to go to get back to that sort of relevance.

Say it again. It's getting to have been so long I almost don't remember it. Plus he's a Cowboys fan.

Ravens divisional opponents definitely hurt the overall strength of offenses they faced. Cincy and Cleveland were bottom 2 in scoring and they accounted for a quarter of their opponents in the regular season. Steelers were also in the bottom half of the league. Jacksonville and Tennessee...

Yeah the idea of checking which offenses each team played has some merit, but Genj also pointed out the flaw in that argument in that teams can't help who they play really. I will note that as dominant as the 2000 Ravens' D was, they had their share of good fortune against Tennessee in the...

When I say age of the passing game, I mean how much better QB's and offenses across the entire league and not just one or two teams are at getting rid of the ball quicker. People generally assume Brady has one of the quickest releases in the game and they were all over him 2 weeks ago, Cam for...

As much as I hate to defend them, but 2000 Ravens have to be in the discussion as well.

Thought we were comparing them to Denver, Denver had 52 sacks this season (led the league). But they had 14 sacks in 3 playoff games (led the playoffs) against Roethlisberger, Brady, and Newton. Pretty impressive, especially in this day and age of the passing game.

Can't wait for the draft.

Denver's D this year maybe not as dominant overall as other great D's like Seattle's a few years ago, Ravens in 2000, Bears in '85...but their pass rush in the playoffs (and especially against Pats/Panthers) was simply unmatched. They made those recent Giants SB teams with their vaunted pass...

BIG sack. That one hurt.

I think Pace and Harrison both deserve to be in. So it's not completely terrible. I don't have as much of a problem with Dungy getting in, he's had a huge influence on the game outside of just his head coaching.

Jesus, Manning such a terrible throw.

Thomas' drops are just so sad sometimes.

Anderson finally getting rumbling. That was big.

Denver D is killing it.

Jesus some stupid penalties in this game.

Early lead aside, if Denver doesn't do something more on offense I don't see them winning. Well and now special teams is doing it.

It would have been more fun if you guys would have let him try to dig up evidence of it. We've all said stupid shit in the football thread. Although I will lay claim to saying partly tongue in cheek way back somewhere between Weeks 2-4 that the Skins going 8-8 could win the division.

I'd rather he go to Houston and have a legit shot at resurrecting some sort of career. I don't think he can do that at Dallas.

Was more directed at Xevy not knowing the history. But hey, they were still in Baltimore then. Probably helped them ditching Charm City.

Must be a Canada thing, haven't really heard anything about it down my way. I don't really follow Toronto though, so, yeah. All we hear is universal praise for McJesus.

I think playing only 1 game in 15 days probably gave him ample time to rest.

Ovechkin, welcome back and clutch again.

Seriously?

Considering the Ottawa/Pens game Tuesday night, he should feast on that goaltending. Busy watching Caps/Isles tonight though.

Might try to look it up and see what the explanation was for it. Definitely couldn't put the Raiders in San Jose if they're that close.

I had no idea SF's stadium was where it is, that's dumb as shit.

Holy shit that many books? Well I've been looking for some more good sci fi to read so I think I'm going to dive in and start reading them.

Holy shit someone actually said they would go on for 10+ seasons?

Seems weird she would just come forward after telling Louis she wouldn't. Betting on a swerve after they tried to bluff with professor.

So I need some advice, some of you who have read the books seem bitter at changes, others have liked them. After watching first 2 seasons of GoT I read all of the books before season 3 and have loved watching the show develop with the knowledge of the books as well. Should I read the novels...
