Cool.

I had assumed the "It has since been changed," was implied, but I guess not.

I have brought great shame to myself.

Why would it be implied? The L is clearly in the picture.

Because I left out the word "originally."

Man, what a jerk I am.

Sucks when you get the punchline wrong.

You're teetering on the brink of losing your funniest poster here status.

I feel shame.

I should have MJLed the poop out of this, and kept changing the argumentative point until I finally won. We'd start with my ruined punchline, and probably end up debating whether or not Jesus wore sunglasses.

Did he get a lifetime ban?

Also, competing with rinaldo's "weak" and "your mom" is tough.

If one of Provorov/Morin earn a spot in camp, the Flyers will make it work.

The timing is what interests me. The draft would be the time to get the highest trade value for whoever they might move. But if they wait 'til the season starts, they risk another AMAC in LHV situation.

Easy for you to say when you're not the one paying a guy millions to NOT play hockey

He has a point though. A lot of peripheral and rookie players absolutely stepped up with amazing performances.
- Pixote Andolini


Nope I don't have a point. Needing players who are on ELC to contribute in the playoffs, and minimizing ridiculously bloated contracts on players who are stiffs have absolutely nothing to do with winning. ZERO!

1) He will be playing hockey
2) He's getting paid whether or not he's in the NHL
3) The offset of a guy like Provorov/Morin making the team will account for less than 1.5% of the team's total salary each. So yes, while it's not my money, it's not like they're adding massive amounts of money to their expenses to slightly upgrade their roster.

Yes this...the timing of the trade only matters if its when they think they can get the best deal...poop happens throughout the year so I doubt Hextall will be dying to cut the roster down too much without having proven NHL players ready to take spots. Whether Provorov is playing in the CHL or he pushes AMac to the AHL...the cap implications are almost identical on an AAV basis

Trying to add HBO to my Comcast service. The website doesn't let you do it, and the phone # is busy (never happened before). It's like they don't want me to give them money.

You should get the standalone Hbo streaming service. Hbo now or something? It offers everything and more, youd probably be paying the same amount when all is said and done.

I don't like streaming TV. The idea of paying to watch shows on my non-HD computer monitor does not appeal to me. But I appreciate the advice.

I am hoping AMac being pushed to the AHL drives him to the KHL and off our books for good.
