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

    I didn't mean good as in good terms...but not the worst thing to get your franchise player signed. It is a little concerning that it's only 5 so they're only buying 1 year of UFA and it's still north of $11.5 a year. I thought the rumors were if it was 5 year deal it would be to keep it closer...

    Given how the game went, and apparently there was some NOLA strike on watching the SB (when it was something like the league's 7th biggest market share last year)...not surprising at all.

    I actually really liked last night's episode. Get more evidence that human nature won't allow most people to resist the temptation of what the other world can offer, and all the small ways knowing how your other is different from you changes how you think about yourself. All of the Howard and...

    Yeah Brady completed 68% of his passes and threw for 953 yards in 3 games? I get it their running game punched in the majority of their TD's, but just like last night he completes the deep ball to Gronk who goes down on the 1, they stuff it in on the run from there. Seems more situational that...

    Shit your guess is as good as mine there. The one sideline reporter kept saying she was told he was going to be majorly involved in their game plan too. If he wasn't hurt, I don't know why he wouldn't be in. McVay trying to be way too super smart thinking Belichick game planned for him and...

    Without Gurley or any running game, Rams don't exactly have a lot of weapons. None of Cooks/Kupp/Woods would be a WR1 on their own. Everett is okay at TE, but he's not a game breaker, either. Gurley catching balls out of the backfield is a huge part of their offense too. 1 catch for -1 yards...

    While I do agree there might be something to the Goff needing a lot of McVay's help to make him look great, I think people busting out the "LOL kid sux" just based on his performance in the Super Bowl against Belichick who had 2 weeks to prep for him are being a little harsh. Not like his O...

    Clarkson deal probably up there for competition for the absolute worst (worse than Zaitsev). It got done. Honestly every GM is going to have to be thinking about certain moves given that Seattle expansion draft will occur in the near future...and I'm sure the rest of the league doesn't want to...

    The Ovechkin contract though is extremely different from any other comparable one in that he basically signed a 7 year deal and a 6 year deal together in one massive 13 year deal. The first "deal" within the deal paid him $9M a year, while the second half it went up to $10M a year. Leonsis was...

    No way he was missing another kick. Belichick would kill him. But yeah, it's basically fucked either way.

    He still threw for a good bit. Hit the big throw to Gronk for the only TD. Plus considering he threw for 3 TD's and 500 last year and lost, and two other losses in games where he scored a TD with under 5 minutes to go to hand a lead to his D which they couldn't protect...it evens out. Edit...

    Easy FG b/c they declined the penalty, and 10 point lead it's over. But I guess they'll try to sneak it or draw them offside?

    I think it's funny Romo didn't realize that by declining the penalty to stop the clock they left them in FG range.

    Ben's first 10 quarters of SB play (he put on some stats in essentially garbage time against the Packers when they lost) he threw 5 picks against 1 TD. Although that 1 TD was the game winner against Arizona.

    It's just stupid b/c that rule is clearly intended to prevent targeting to head/neck areas.

    To be fair, many of the 1st round QB picks in recent years have at least been decent to good/great. Goff/Wentz both look like good starters, wherever you feel like they land. Watson, Mahomes, Mayfield. Even Trubinsky to a degree has shown nice potential. While Mariota and Winston haven't...
