"World of Warcraft used to be a game that made you want to waste your time. Now it's just a game that wastes your time." Damn, that's pretty poetic from someone like Asmon.

Think "routine" is underselling a bit. Even Pageau's release point is just top of the circle and it's about as top corner a snipe as it can be without going in off the iron. Palmieri by the time the puck actually leaves is stick is well inside the circle. You read Pittsburgh blogs they're...

I'll root for that if Caps get eliminated. This Florida/Tampa game is great already. This series is going to be good shit, too. Round 1 is just so fucking good always, games on all day, big rivalries, OT playoff hockey...what more could you want?

Part of me wants to see a Colorado v Vegas series, because it would be phenomenal. Hard to root against Minnesota, though.

I didn't get to watch the whole game, only saw some highlights, were they that bad? Looked like some top shelf snipes other than the one the guy shot through Letang.

Less Isles fans complaining now, that's for sure. Although Wahlstrom has been in the lineup, too, so less of the reason why they were mad in the first place. The only other thing I could have wanted from that game would have been multiple OT's but whatever.

Get fucked Pens

Zero surprise both Game 1's in the East go to OT. Both these series could go long.

Yeah if you had told me Vanecek went down in the 1st and Craig Anderson came in, I wouldn't have thought we had a chance. Carlson and Oshie are clearly not 100%, either.

I don't lose mettle in there, actually hit rank 14 and 15 from doing my relic runs in DR. Once you've seen the fights, should rarely if ever die, and they award you mettle at the end that more than makes up for all of it. The 36 alliance raids did kind of suck, but once it is done, you never...

Not so fast, sir.

I forget the exact times, but it'll pop X minutes after an instance is opened, and then every X minutes after that until that instance finally closes.

Caps need to get off to a good start at home. Take advantage when we have last chance against that top line, because they're going to be murder up in Boston with whatever match up they want.

They definitely mentioned it already so I assume it'll be part of 6.0.

Well whoever called Old Sharlayan was right. Maybe the Moon is just the last zone of the expansion?

Trailer was hype as fuck.

Technically it was just the one patch (5.3 I believe) that was delayed 3-4 months. Thus everything after that is coming out 3-4 months later than it otherwise would have. But the length of content since 5.3 came out has been back to normal basically. If this was Blizzard, it would be twice...

The slow global really kills is. It feels crisp as far as responsiveness, but 2.5 second global is a real turn off to a lot of potential WoW converts. I play Bard on 14, so I'm pretty much weaving off globals all the time and it's not that bad, but I know some classes it just plays a lot slower.

I don't know how you would stop before Shadowbringers, easily the best expansion.

If Ovechkin didn't lead the playoffs in goals, I think Kuzy might have had a shot at the Conn Smythe. Wasn't like when Kessel was pretty much robbed of the Conn Smythe by Crosby during one of the Penguins back to back runs.

Crazy to me Kuzy even qualifies for that "older player" but compared to Eichel I guess it fits. Not like he's old, though. Again, it would have to be plus another player with a contract to make the money work, I don't know how you list it as just Kuzy plus picks. Eichel costs $2.2M more a...

Hence the other contract to make the cap space working out...and "couple of picks" is pretty vague. It would clearly have to be multiple 1sts (maybe up to 3) with more. Then again, if Eichel wants out, that's a $10M contract that for all his potential talent everyone around the league is going...

It was literally the only game Dak won last year, and Atlanta pulled their classic choke

I mean we'd have to shed cap to make that work unless they retain salary (which I doubt they would with how many years are left on his deal). Plus all the high draft picks we'd have to send them. I'm a little more bullish on our chances than you are, but that shouldn't be a surprise. That...

Truth

Why Atlanta?

8-9 to 10-7. Somewhere in that range. But yeah, 4 out of last 5 are divisional. Eagles last 4 are all in the division. I assume the Giants are similar then.

I haven't looked but is it the same for the rest of the division?

Even more amusing than normal b/c I look at the end of the schedule and think if we even manage to go 6-6 through the first 12 games that really weak final stretch of games could make it doable for us

I mentioned this on a Caps blog today that was talking about trying to trade Kuzy for him. At this point they may just have to do the full tear down like you mention. It absolutely sucks to admit that's what they have to do, but it might just be what needs to happen.

Has a team ever had 5 division games the last 5 weeks of a season?

I'm actually freaked out by that Josh Gordon season now. The Browns leading rusher that year was Willis McGahee with 377 yards. I will say Jordan Cameron actually had a solid fucking year as their TE with 80 catches for 917 yards that year. But none of their other WR even hit 500 yards...

I just think it undersells the amount of training/effort they put in to say they just are "going to the gym". If everyone did what they did at the gym, obesity wouldn't be the thing it is in this country. Not to mention the absolute high level of competition/skill they perform their actual...

After the Eichel bomb, sounds like they may just have to totally clean house and start over again up there. Quinn fired by Rangers btw

And it doesn't sound like Tebow is going to be making millions, unless he has some crazy performance bonuses. I will say I never get the whole "make millions to play a game" argument. Sure if you boil it down, football is a game, but it's also a stone cold lock majority of NFL players work...

I think Titans and Colts fight it out for 1st, and maybe both fight for playoff spots (AFC going to be a battle even with a 3rd wild card), Jax 3rd (but not great), and Houston 4th in total shit show.

What's a run away success? They're not making the playoffs, likely not even going to seriously flirt with .500. They're not picking 1st in the draft next year, though.

Depends if it's a "guarantee" he makes the roster or not. Plenty of teams are signing random vets/etc as camp bodies. No idea how much of his contract is guaranteed but that low a salary might mean there's no expectation for him to definitely make the roster unless he actually performs.

A little over $700k for base salary. Sounds like real cheap hope signing throwing shit at the wall to see who can stick at TE for them.

I feel like any concerns will go away the first time he trucks a DB trying to tackle him, but whatever.
