I ask people, are you actually trying to focus in on the puck itself?! And find out that they do exactly that. They don’t try to follow every movement of the ball while watching any other sport, they watch who is holding it or what’s happening around it.
It REALLY helps to go see a live game or two for them to pick up more on the game, then it’s easier to follow on tv.

I can see it being confusing because due to the pace of the sport, if you don’t have a general idea of what that player may do with the puck before they do it, you can get stuck behind the play.

We went to a London Knights game and she liked it so I definitely agree with watching the game live.

Funny but I think going to Bandits games helped my wife follow Hockey a bit, not that she likes it.

Now there's a blast from the past.

Fox trax is one thing. The 3 on 1 resulting in a slapper from above the circle is also antiquated, this looks like the period was over or something. 10/10 clip for sure.

I was glad he was two months ago. Now it’s becoming an issue.

I severely doubt the offers have increased since now he’s inevitably missing part of this season.

Adams overplayed his hand.

Did u think the same thing when Sakic held out for over a year till he got what he wanted for Duchene?

And u didn’t really answer my question:
Do u just want Adams to take the best offer for Jack right now, just to get this over with?

Why is it an issue? the Sabres are almost uniquely positioned to hold out for the right offer. He wouldn't be playing either way and he's not losing value. There's no reason to rush into a deal. Everything is fine.

Wow! Mark Andrews just got paid 4yr 56m
- Buff36


The best WRs are getting in the $20mil per range
$14mil per for a great TE doesn’t seem unreasonable

check your waivers in your money leagues daily

my one league in the last 24 hours I picked up michael thomas for nothing, the league has ir spots, hence he is a dumbass

I also picked up kyle pitts, waived logan thomas for him
they gave pitts low projection for week 1 so he dropped him for broncos back up te, another dumbass

I have waller as my starting te on that league

I guess I got some good karma for dobbins going down after I drafted him for my 4th rb in that league

Nice to be in leagues with ppl that dumb

I didn't even notice that. This is just craziness. Even preseason games should have fans.

@Hank WTF is this bruh?!

The bills division features Josh Allen and a bunch of people who have never proven a thing at the quarterback position. I can't imagine how they're going to lose 7 games.

For a new or casual fan that only breeds more of staring at the puck sliding around the ice and missing/not understanding most of what is happening
That puck trail drove me nuts, lol, I found it distracting. The only time I liked it was when puck was out of sight up against the boards nearest the camera, and it would show where the puck was.
