I believe there have to be 2 different percentages since Detroit is a potential 4-point game.

3-3 is misleading because of OTL...regardless...detroit cant get more than 97 points

Well played.

- YuenglingJagr


Tomahawk agrees.

But seriously, it's not like he won't get another contract. The league isn't so bursting with talent a skilled guy like Gagner can't get more than 1 year 1.5. It's obvious he's been working hard and with his hands, someone will give him a reasonable deal.

Speaking of Gagner, he will play in his first ever playoff game should they make it in. 9 years first playoff game. Pretty cool for him I bet.

I haven't seen/been following the CHL playoffs closely, but a few observations:

1. Provorov has no points through 4 games and Brandon was in an 0-2 hole after being favorites to reach the WHL Finals. How has he looked?

2. Sanheim had a bad statistical Game 1 (0-0-0 -3) followed by a great Game 2 (1-2-3 +3) and a good Game 3 (0-2-2 -1). Calgary is in a 2-1 hole.

3. Fazleev has come up empty so far.

4. Myers has 1-3-4 +4 so far, but when you sweep your first round by a combined 33-4 score...hard to gain any insight.

5. NAK has 2 goal in 4 games so far, all coming in Game 1. Val-d'Or is in a 3-1 hole.

Sounds like Fazleev sustained a broken finger in the first game and is playing thru it.

Not every day you expect to encounter a Lord Tariq and Peter Gunz reference...but I guess April 1st would be the day

Ever see this web-series? A couple 5-minute dramatizations on how stories unfolded for some classic soft rock bands.

Jeff Porcaro and Steve Lukather were session maniacs. They've been on hundreds of records.

Well done!

I nerd out on funk/soul/jazz/rock sampled in hip hop and am most definitely a hip hop nerd/snob but my passion for it only ranges from the oldschool days (early 1980's) to about 1997. All the new 'rap' or 'hip hop' that's out now I can't stomach in the slightest.
