I don't think general spreadsheet is gonna let him leave...dubas loves keefe and keefe is all in on analytics... I think Dubas would fire babcock before letting him go...

I said this in the Blues blog at the start of the season and boy did they get salty. I proposed they tear it down and I think that team overachieved big time this season.

Islanders are their Eastern counterpart. I say Dallas closes that series in the next game. Bishop has been a great pickup for them and the owner calling out his star players (no pun intended) seems to have worked up until this point.

I hate to say it but I think Boston might have taken the momentum needed to win their series against Columbus.

It will be a Dallas vs. Carolina cup finals and no one will watch it.

I'd be shocked in Dubas had that kind of power.

In all seriousness, I really enjoy your articles because the tone, while realistic, is never sensationalist or reactionary. Your level-headed approach is appreciated

JB needed approval. Dubas has a dozen other hoops to jump through, and he might lose that fight.

Would you rather be the Hurricanes and make the playoffs 4 times in 17 years and go to the ECF every year you make it and win a cup one of those years, or be a Sharks fan and make it every year and yet to have anything to show for it ? Interesting proposition because the Canes have been irrelevant for such a long period of time.
- Pegullaville

The one with the Cup. The answer might be different if I'm a fan of a team that has won one before, though.

It instantly killed every combination bet that included the 7 horse (exactas, trifectas etc.) which have the largest payouts. There are thousands of very pissed off bettors lol
- joevthree


Of those thousands of pissed off bettors, I'd suspect many are the 1 to 3 times a year bettor that has little clue about horse racing based on the Twitter comments I've read, as that was a clear cut foul and subsequent take down of a horse. He fouled at least 3 horses, maybe even 4, easily could have caused one of the ugliest scenes in America's biggest race, and at least partially won by eliminating part of his most dangerous competition by moving like a drunk around the turn.

According to @iltalehti_fi, one of these to-do list items is nearing completion. Report says Sabres have verbally agreed to deal with Arttu Ruotsalainen, which will be signed after World Championship

- metzeric

Undrafted 20-year-old Arttu Ruotsalainen has been one of the best centres in the entire Liiga. So far, he has six goals and a total of 12 points in the first 11 games. He plays in every situation of Ilves and has recorded a 53.4 Corsi for percentage. He might very well get signed by an NHL organisation next summer.



Oskari Laaksonen (Buffalo Sabres’ third-round selection in 2017) has had an excellent start to his season with the team, as he already put up six points in the first 11 games. Laaksonen has good skating and intriguing offensive skill set. He has already shown that he can quarterback a power play and produce as a defenceman. Sabres must be very pleased with Laaksonen’s development so far."
