Sometimes its nice and sometimes is cumbersome. On a cold night, it's nice to have someone pump your gas. If you have patience and aren't in a rush, it's really not that big of a deal.

If its Christmas day, I can go to the Gas Station, stick in my credit card, and pump my own gas.

I love watching Jersey people stop on rt 40 on the delaware side for gas and just sit in thier cars waiting.....

Ocean City. I don't drink, and she's pregnant. Plus, we're not big partiers even before she was pregnant. Can't deal with the drunk high school wieners at Wildwood. Ocean City's just such a nice little town.

Yeah. I just don't think you can assume anything. The only forward not in the NHL that I believe is a sure NHL player at some point is Laughton.
- PhillySportsGuy

i'd definitely say Cousins has a for sure future in the NHL as a 3rd liner. 100%.

McGinn-Newbury-Cousins line in the AHL would be devastating. 3 PWF who piss people off
and can get points to boot. Totally hope the Phantoms coach makes that a line.

- PhillySportsGuy


Agreed. But that's why I'd like Laughton (if possible) to play the 4th line this year so he can have a nice season under his belt before jumping to the 3rd line.

NJ gas is cheaper though. I usually go to WAWA. There are several pumps there. The guy swipes my car and I'll go in and grab a bite. When I return, the guy hands me a receipt and I'm on my way.

Your fault for taking 40 instead of the AC Expressway or 322.

Yea, well when you've just drank for 8 hours at a casino and did an enitre 8-ball of coke by yourself, you want to avoid fast traffic!

It is. I always hate when people complain about the anti-drinking laws in Ocean City. You can go anywhere else and drink.

I think the restaurants are BYOB. If not, Somers Point always has a lot of great places to eat.

He's as can't-miss as Alexander Daigle and Nikolai Zherdev.

Quite a few. i pay attention to junior players
he isnt quite a 2 way player, but he 100% should be an NHL regular throughout his career. anything less would be rather disappointing.

I was rebelous in my youth. The drinking and Coke parts are true, but I didn't and wouldn't drive after that.

I've yet to see him play against professionals.
Same with Ghost. He looks incredibly fast and has great 2-way ability, but I have to keep reminding myself he's playing against college kids.
I wish Ghost could play in the AHL.

The problem with guys who aren't two-way is that they need to produce enough points to offset defensive deficiencies. Is he going to produce enough, for the team to forgive defensive mistakes?

A guy like Read could score 25 points next year and still be valuable.

I hope you're right. I just wouldn't bet the house on Cousins being a 3rd line player yet.

I would say 80% chance Cousins plays 3rd line minutes...just my opinion
