    Star Trek: Picard

    This is actually a great point, although since Picard got his own holosuite program for the trip of his home on Earth, could easily see a hand waving of all the passengers being granted basic command privs or whatever.

    Although @Ishad , I do wonder about both our trades requiring the trading teams to have retained the maximum possible salary (50%) each time. Maybe there is another move coming.

    I'm going to be honest. Moving Jensen out for the corpse of Mike Green would be a bad move, imo. We need to get better defensively, Mike Green does not do that.

    Nope.. We just got Kovalchuk from the Habs for a 3rd. They're retaining 50% salary (he's taking up salary cap space on 4 teams now)

    I don't really remember it all that bright and shiny. Especially not with 7 at times. Hell even shit like the Fear manifested clown episode with the people in suspended animation or whatever. Literal lopping of heads off that killed them because they were scared to death.

    I was out had to listen to 2nd period on radio, finally got home to watch the 3rd. Started crashing the net and getting chances down low. Well, Wilson created a turnover that led to this breakaway 4 on 4 for a pretty finish (his 20th goal of the year, no less, also set a career high in points...

    Yeah that was rough when we were behind for all of like 5 minutes today. Glad they started Holtby against the Pens this time, although Oshie scored one for both teams.

    Funny thing is he probably was saying it in a hopeful way like he felt those guys were capable of doing it just had to put it together. I can't get enough of the emergency goalie story, though. Only in hockey. Just awesome (well, not for Toronto, but just in general).

    Kempny needs to sit. Feel bad for Samsonov his stats won't show it, but thought he played pretty well today (seems we say that about our goalies too much lately).

    Yeah most of the speculation I heard was Sept/Oct or Oct/Nov. 6 months from now is August still. But reading between the lines the speculation seems to be more like ~8 months.

    League and the media need to figure out why anyone should care about Deadline Day. All the trades already happening. Kreider might be the only thing left for it, and might not have anywhere to go if teams keep making moves.

    I'm sure Ovechkin cares more about wins, it's the media that wants to push it so hard. Frankly he should just go score another hat trick to get it over with quick.

    I would assume the owners are just offering a straight up increase to the cap relative to overall revenue. Sources: 14 playoff teams likely in new NFL CBA Okay, I had that wrong it isn't just a 0.5% increase. Also apparently playoff teams on bye weren't getting paid for the bye week, but...

    NFL 2020 Season: Gravy Edition!

    But overall salaries would increase because owners are offering a bigger percentage of the overall pie if players agree to a 17th game. I saw some numbers like player share going from 48% to 48.5%. 0.5% seems small, but I read it amounted to $5 billion. Obviously that's spread among all NFL...

    I had a thought they would just bump Kempny down somewhere and sit Siegenthaler because he's the young guy, but not sure I think it was the best move. I want to think it's just because they don't like Holtby, but they've been doing it to Samsonov his last couple starts, too.

    @Obsidian Holtby already faced two clean breakaways 6 minutes in. Really think they should have sat Kempny instead of Siegenthaler.

    NFL 2020 Season: Gravy Edition!

    From what I heard, an extra regular season game would give another $5 billion of revenue to the players side of things. No idea if that would be final number or if they're just negotiating for more.

    It's just super weird to have the Florida teams in the Atlantic. I get it, they probably couldn't find a good way to split everyone up and they wanted the old Patrick division rivalries.

    Given his wasn't a high hit, I'm not sure how much it added. Obviously we had to have you retain some, although not a full 50%. Wonder if that was to leave some space open for another potential depth move.

    Price a little high maybe, but perhaps he can inject some good defensive play into our D men, who sorely need it right now. Not sure if this will have Kempny sitting or just moved down in the lineup, but would be welcome right now. It's ironic because I'm sure GMBM is hoping Dillon is this...
