    Love Ian McShane. Good first episode, hope it doesn't always run 5 extra minutes into Silicon Valley, though.

    Pretty cool moment in Edmonton. Anthem singer mic not working or something, so he gets Edmonton crowd to sing out the American national anthem. Gotta give props to Edmonton home crowd for knowing it, now the Canadian anthem singer is letting crowd do it for their anthem too even though his mic...

    It just blows my mind. Why wouldn't this move be made before the Combine/Pro days/Draft etc. Makes no sense.

    Refs have nothing to do with it, if anything only thing they really screwed up last night was originally waving off the Malkin goal. I still don't even know how he thought that was interference even at real speed live. The Penguins are fantastic at being opportunistic, I give them full marks...

    Funny how last series against Columbus, Werenski is bleeding all over the ice from a facial fracture but refs let play continue while Pens maintained control in the O zone...and they score. Everyone knew if it had been a Pens player down, whistles would go nearly immediately. Only took waiting...

    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    Really liked the Redskins' draft. We were able to address needs all over the place while not having to reach for those needs. Helped that Allen fell into out lap at 17, but pretty much addressed most trouble spots at least partially with our draft. I might have traded some of the late picks...

    @Uber Uberest I honestly don't follow the Wizards as much, and have felt pretty much all 2nd half of the season they might get out of round 1, but would lose to Celts or Cavs. But if you want, that's cool we can do one.

    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    It'll be interesting to see if Cousins works as well with Gruden calling plays again (he did initially when he first came over). On one hand, McVay's play calling was pretty good...but a little suspect in the red zone. Wonder if he has similar struggles over in LA.

    I love so much we got Moreau at #81. Anderson is a beast too, lack of measurables hurt his stock. Moreau might not be ready to go right away, but our D is a whole lot better already. Loving our draft so far and thank goodness they focused on D.

    This is all great points, Watson definitely is set up to succeed. I'm not sure how good he'll be in the NFL, but honestly the Texans don't need much just competent play. He has weapons there as you note, and that defense will be unreal. That division as a whole should be getting better (save...

    No love for Skins nabbing Allen at 17? Just kidding man. I pretty much agree with everything you said here. If Winston doesn't put up monster numbers this year, I don't know what to say. He's loaded with receiving talent around him now. Seriously wondering if Cook/Mixon keep falling if...

    Can't believe Allen fell to us. Some good luck for us? Great player at exact position of need? If tomorrow goes well draft should already be a big success, can use our abundant Day 3 picks to take some shots on guys.

    Nice Game 1. Nice to see Kuznetsov get on the board again. Feel pretty good about our chances overall if we play like that the whole series. Maybe not hand out freebies like we did tonight next game, though.

    Yeah Drouin has been a beast ever since the whole trade demand flap blew over. Kucherov and Hedman both absolute monsters and have reason to be like "look at our play, where you guys at?"

    More or less, only they would do it even when they didn't have a lead as well when games were tied (not all the time, but some of the time). It's essentially another version of the trap. I remember a clip of a game Capitals had against Tampa where we were up a couple goals in the 3rd and...

    Depends if there's battles over what they found and who gets their shares. But a lot of it still seems contrived. Also shitty he pissed off Gene Kranz, although he should have known he can't just ask about that stuff without it being sensitive.

    Seriously fuck Guy Boucher and his 1-3-1. I'll be real interested to watch the West series tomorrow night. I think both are pretty fantastic and aside from Anaheim lot of new blood (St. Louis not exactly new, but they've only really had the one deep run).

    Not to offend, I find Rags/Sens the least compelling of the 2nd round match ups (honestly the other 3 I think are all pretty fucking good). Mostly because of the Sens, I'm a little surprised they beat Boston, but I don't see them having a real chance against the Rags. As for people picking...

    What the fuck, literally intro to episode 2 says "true story of one man's journey to find what lies at end of treasure map from space"...then "what he finds is worth billions". I mean shit, it's nice to know there is a payoff, but didn't need to spoil it all to that degree.

    Felt like we were the much better team. Not sure what they were counting as shots for Toronto all night but didn't feel like Holtby had to work 28 saves hard through the first 2 periods. Leafs with barely any shots in the 3rd (which we basically dominated) and they get another crazy bounce off...

    Agreed best shot is Europa. But if they win the derby against City, they go 2 points ahead of them, and being only 3 back of Liverpool with 2 games in hand makes it very doable. As tough as their run in is, Liverpool's struggles against teams in the bottom half of the table means their finish...

    So Tottenham to lose while Arsenal go through. Spurs always seem on the cusp without being able to get over the hump. Maybe the rematch with Chelsea coming up will let them get the ultimate revenge and help them to league title. Liverpool dropping all 3 points leaves a big opening for either...

    Yeah I don't see the point of building up all that fake tension between them when it's clear they're going to just resolve it and start working together. I just hope sitting through all the bs is worth it for a payoff at the end.

    Justin Williams so clutch. It's weird for a series with 4 out of the 5 games going to overtime, 3 of them have been relatively short. The 3 that didn't go double OT all finished roughly 5 minutes into first extra period or earlier.
