How do you know Winnipeg is not a "Contender" and some of these supposed "Contenders look bad. Vegas? Their centres are a joke and they have weak forwards.

A team can be a contender. The idea they gave not "Won rounds" with Coci Ceci as top pair RH D is as garbage an argument as 4 players for 40 million was.

Jets defense suck

*your words

You bring so much hate with you, relax, take some deep breathes. Stay off Twitter before your poor heart explodes.

Vegas has a good team regardless of the your made up stuff.

Anyone read Dom Luszczyszyn's daily odds in the Athletic?

He says the Habs have a 63.2% of beating the Jets tonight.

WTF?

- Atomic Wedgie



I assume the Habs are the home team then.
But also, they have some decent stats.

People actually thought the Habs "Big" team was the way to build a winner LOL. Ottawa will be passing them soon enough.

It’s fine to talk Cup as they have just as good a shot as just about anybody. The upside of playing in the “Scotia Incredibly Weak North” is that it’s easier to win - being incredibly weak. Any honest assessment of their play right now has to have them as favourites to get to the semifinals and anything can happen from there.

Obviously, there’s a million caveats involved but I don’t think it’s completely unrealistic to at least think about talking about when it might be ok to start thinking about talking about the Cup. Let’s enjoy the moment. Unleash your inner Roger

I’m happy with just being Garnie and enjoying the ride. I don’t need to spread garbage around in here. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤣

As not a gambler, I didn't really understand it too well - nor would I entirely trust it that well. I wanted something where he was going to show the day-to-day predictions of his model, and the accumulated results of those predictions. I would have looked at that and perhaps garnered some trust in it if the results were tolerable or if the model was tweaked as defects were found.

Instead it really has no meaning to me.

For the past few years, because this is one of my dorky things, in the final 15-20 games or so, I'll look at the remaining games and try to guess who _should_ win based on home/away, streaks, team strength, back-to-back or 3-in-4 and so on . . .as a way to try and predict the final standings. I even throw in a calculated buffer for some losses to be OTL . . .

I would say my picks are usually about 55%, which is garbage. I don't know if Dom's picks are much better.

Just saw that.

Mixed emotions about it.... like spears aren't the way to go, I think I would have just dropped the gloves and attacked him instead... but what do you expect when some noname is 2 handing you when the puck is nowhere near you

It's weird that you would put together a clip of Mike Myers in a movie with the Leafs, because there's never been a movie like that and it never, ever happened.

I'd like to see Bertuzzi on the Leafs. He's my favourite Red Wings player but he's being wasted in Detroit. I think his gritty style game would mesh nicely with the Leafs big 4. Bertuzzi is a guy who's game is better suited for playoff hockey when the ice shrinks and the whistles are thrown away. He's kind of like Hyman. Not hockey IQ wise. But more physical. He'll give you everything he has plus he can score the greasy goals. 👍
