Funny thing is... in NHL 17, there's a game mode that's basically fantasy roster build and there's speciality cards. And they'll make you special player cards when they actually do well in real life. Carter Hart got a card and he's like an 88 overall lol. Around the same time Sandstrom also got one.

What is Oullette? maybe he is an 89

I agree that rules are rules. However, at that point, just let the dude (frank)ing play. There should be a clause in the rule book that simply states, "Come on dude..."

lol...so many other rules are subjective this one should be, too

He maxes out at a 6. Slighly better than Lamarche.

"Well, if you slow it down with a high-speed camera and zoom in, you can see that the tip of the skate blade of the player who had nothing to do with the goal crossed the blue line one frame before the puck does."

"The call on the ice is confirmed, come on dude..."

He should have. No medical diagnosis for a cramp. Or just some phantom hand injury or something.

Clearly Stolarz is not a team player.

"Well, if you slow it down with a high-speed camera and zoom in, you can see that the tip of the skate blade of the player who had nothing to do with the goal crossed the blue line one frame before the puck does, five minutes of game time ago."

According to the Pens blog there is very little chance any of us become NHL GMs

(frank) the Pens and their blog

I know this is kind of picking at nothing, but its slow today at work. In the farm system they seem to have quite a few guys who project as 3rd or 4th line players. Will be interesting to see what they do with them all. (laughton, Vorobyov, Bunnaman, Dove-Mcfall, Couisins, Leier, Vechhione, Salintri, and Laczynski.. etc). Obviously they wont all pan out but thats a bunch of people.

Oddly enough, the current day Flyers have a lot of guys who project as 3rd or 4th line player.

Off-topic, but a Delaware state trooper just got shot multiple times at the WaWa down the street from where I work. Just walking out of WaWa and got shot, then got shot multiple times when he was down.

It's not picking at nothing, it's the Flyers core problem. They have an adequate Top 6 but it's nothing special. They're going to need three balanced lines that can score to do much in the short term.

If 1 or 2 of those guys exceeds expectations that would be huge. Along side Konecny, Lindblom, and Rubhstov. I agree the high end forward talent is too deep, but there isnt still some talent there.

It's crazy. A coworker and I drove by and noticed there were a bunch of cops out. Heard what happened when we got back.
