    Crosby could play for the Cowboys. Penalty called on him, then called off. Never seen that before.

    Leafs made a move, unloaded Franson and Santorelli to Preds for good old Olli Jokinen, prospect and a 1st.

    You don't think they do a major blow up before trade deadline? I mean it's Toronto so standing pat somehow is always in play but I think you might see them make some major moves.

    Be curious to know how much the SoS measured prior to a season ends up matching the reality after a season is over. I feel like it's usually not very similar.

    It's not that Beagle is a terrible player or that him having a career year isn't a good thing...he's just still a 4th line player who maybe could fill in on a checking oriented 3rd line occasionally. He isn't a driver of play, but he's a decent faceoff guy and can grind out shifts, will play...

    Oddly enough some people on Caps blog defending the use of Beagle in overtime point to that as a "high skill" goal...when in reality without the linesman tackling your D it's probably not even a scoring chance (or any quality anyways), nor was the "finish" really that good. I still don't know...

    Have been on the other side of ref/linesman taking out our D man. It sucks when it happens...surprised it doesn't more often. That said was a weird game, lot of strange momentum shifts. Lightning in a bottle for you guys to start the 2nd period, we get the lead right after the linesman goal...

    Caps in SJ tonight. Pens already thumped Wings 4-1. SJ is kind of a house of horrors for us, but have to find a way to win to keep pace with everyone else.

    Definitely a "safe" throw though. Doesn't take a lot of time, if done anywhere near correctly only your receiver will have a shot at the ball or it'll be incomplete.

    Yeah I don't think Butler gets enough credit for just making an incredible read and play enough because like you said everyone is focused on the "JUST HAND IT OFF TO LYNCH WTF".

    I mean, it's funny to say, but it's not automatic. A penalty, Lynch getting stopped (he was stuffed on a 3rd and 1 in the red zone earlier in the game), a fumble (which was statistically more likely than an interception if you looked at every time a team passed or ran a ball from the 1 yard...

    Wow if that's really how that happened...what a shame. Meanwhile everyone keeps winning in top 4 of the Metro. Finally called up Grubauer to spell Holtby instead of marching Peters out there (and letting in 3+ goals), beat Anaheim in a shootout. Pens up 2-0 right now in complete control in...

    I wasn't pushing them as THE team in the AFC, just that claiming the Ravens were definitely ahead of anyone else aside from the Pats in the AFC was a little premature. Everyone saw what Manning was doing to the league early in the year. The quad injury seems completely viable given how his...

    Apparently Haley, fresh off making the HoF, was asked to pick between Brady and Montana and said something to the effect of "Joe didn't have to cheat to win his titles". These donks really need to keep reading the reports and not just listen to the first outcry.

    People forget the Steelers lost Le'veon Bell in Week 17. They also kind of played a shitty playoff game against Baltimore. Up until then I thought they might actually make some noise and get to New England for AFC title game with an outside shot at going to the SB. With Bell I think that...

    I'd think Murray is more likely to get hurt really. I guess there's always a chance Lynch goes to a shitty team and sees his numbers drop as a result, but I don't think it would drop that much. Obviously if they both missed half a season or something those numbers would make sense, but I think...

    Rice's decline had already started though. Grimm's post about a "magic number" of touches (carries and receptions) per year for RB's has been an idea that has floated around for a couple of years now. Whoever posted only 1500 yards and 10 TD's combined between Lynch and Murray next year is...

    Except you know, for that one year when there was no cap, and the Skins had to take $18 million hit on their cap for two years and the Cowboys took $5 million hit for 2 years. But yes, usually, guys work their magic with deferred money and bonuses to make anything work.

    Unless of course...there IS no cap for a year. Then they can handicap your team for 2 seasons for spending too much when there was no cap.
