    2018-19 NHL Season Thread - Caps were not suck last year edition

    Pierre on Ryan Callahan's nuts ever since he was a Ranger. It's pretty hilarious. Makes a halfway decent backcheck that was a borderline hook, and starts talking about how he scored 50 goals in juniors and how he should always be in the lineup.

    Other than just in this episode? I don't think so? They actually had the one scene on the boat (and a larger shot of a good number of their boats) where their commander was facing all the men on the boat that I remember from the trailers...but in the trailers it felt like they wanted us to...

    Eh, with accusations like that I'm sure he's getting all sorts of legal advice for a variety of potential reasons. And that's whether he's guilty or not. I could understand certain measures to "protect the player" from unnecessary stuff in regards to it, although basic legal matters they...

    That's a pretty specific thing to have to know to look for, though. You'd have to think being the 3 Eyed Raven he would have as much free time as he'd like since he could see where he's supposed to be (and when). He had to know about when Jaime would actually arrive, shouldn't have to sit in...

    Hey if Barca knew they could mail it in that much on the road (by comparison, they still won the game), good on them. I kind of expected them to roll and thought the way they played at OT could have allowed United had they taken better advantage of a chance or two to have a lot more belief they...

    And Brando on the Juventus stuff, I know you'd believe Ronaldo was a rapist before most, because you simply dislike the guy...hence why you take shots at him (or United) or any other entity you deem to be unfavorable to you. I agree with you for the most part on the Kean racist stuff, their...

    I did think it was more even, but frankly I thought Barca should have rolled through both legs. I totally understood they were going to look better at Camp Nou in the 2nd leg after watching the 1st, I was just surprised they looked as flat (in comparison to how they can play and how I thought...

    Your first sentence seems to be completely agreeing with me (I expected far more of dominate Barca even on the road at Old Trafford), the rest of it you're just being Brando to try to take as big a shot at United as possible...which is what you do again regarding Ronaldo and the racism situation...

    This is exactly what I expected at Camp Nou, but still thought we'd see more of even at Old Trafford. Of course, Juventus choking despite Ronaldo giving them an early 1-0 lead. Going to be sad if he scores all 5 goals for them in the knockout stages without anyone else managing even one.

    Yeah Ovi was quoted saying neither of them are fighters (was Ovechkin's 4th career fight, first since 2010), and that he hopes he was okay. Apparently gave the kid a chance to back down, asked him if he was sure he wanted to go. On one hand, I like that Ovechkin can stand up for himself and...

    Caps laid total egg tonight. Game wasn't in question at all but man refs were letting Carolina get away with a ton second half of the game. Blatant high sticks, interference galore. It's amazing what players are allowed to do TO Tom Wilson without getting called...and I only bring that up...

    Note I was the first person who pointed out if it hit 20 years it technically would be okay to say decades. But they are Lannisters and the entire rest of the point of even a legit 20 years equating to 300 is simply stupid. Silence, peon.

    When Qyburn first went to Bronn, I thought we were somehow going to get a Bronn and Cersei scene. Which would have been amazing since they hate each other in real life and won't be in the same room together (previously dated?)

    Even if we grant all this bs, how does ruling for "decades" equate to 3 centuries of Targ rule? Not to mention, Gendry is a bastard (and not even a pretend hand wave one like Joffrey or Tommen to you), whereas Jon is not. Otherwise, seems random the show would have Robert ruling for 17 years...

    In the books Robert only ruled for 15 years, not sure how much the kids aged in the books. For whatever reason on the show they had Robert say 17 years.

    I'm not sure we know what everyone in KL or abroad actually BELIEVES regarding their parentage...but the idea the rumor about it was confined to only a few high born is demonstrably false. An actual rumor only a couple people know currently is Jon's parentage, which is basically himself, Sam...

    Just a rumor amongst the high born? It's like people didn't even watch the show. Not to mention there was a scene prior to this when it was just Tyrion out amongst the people and some beggar was yelling about Joffrey being Cersei and Jaime's son. Despite their titles it was the Lannister...

    You're absolutely right. If I thought he was troling instead of just being dumb it'd be easier to ignore. I feel Chuk would work best in this thread if he just sat in a wheelchair like Bran all the time but instead of being the 3 Eyed Raven he'd just watch his weird lore vids.

    Did you really link their profiles from got fandom? They aren't Robert's kids. Jon is a Targ, Joffrey and Tommen were Lannisters. Facts. Also we'll just gloss over the idea that even maybe a full 20 years we'll call "decades" by the barest technical definition and equate that to "as much of...

    I guess in Chuk land this is true. The brats weren't actually Baratheon, nor is Cersei ruling as one, really. At least so far as claiming that Gendry has as much right to the crown as Jon (Aegon). The Lannisters have controlled the crown since Robert died, that's why they were against Renly...

    The really stupid part about the call is that if they give you the minor penalty for goalie interference (as opposed to just ruling a no goal for incidental contact) you can't even use your challenge on the play.

    I don't think he should get 3, because that's what Kadri got last year for a very similar hit but the distance traveled by Kadri was considerably further (basically charging across the ice to hit a guy that was clearly down against the boards). 1 game I think is likely, 2 possible.
