Pretty solid analysis for the Coyotes versus Preds! Maybe when you are done talking about movies you can analyze all of the other series.

As for Jovo-Cop...yeah too bad the advanced stats can't tell you whether he was good or bad. I guess we can just rely on old-fashioned methods like understanding the sport and watching the games.

Robo cop 🤔. I’m a hockey writer and I don’t know if he was a good defender?
You can’t be getting paid for this crap. When the theater’s reopen maybe you can get a job as a usher or something.

Why would Tanner wait for the theatres to open. Just break a window, grab some Twizzlers, and eat the rich.

Take it easy on the author. He's never watched Jovo-Cop play, but he did see the RoboCop movie 18 times. Also, they didn't have advanced stats back then so it's impossible to know if he was good or not. Is Planet of the Apes one of your top movies. Seems to be trending.

Maybe you shouldn't be doing a top 50 players for the franchise if you're not very familiar with how most of them played. Jovanovski (JovoCop, not Ed "Time Cop") was fantastic defensively, not some lumbering brute.

Step 1. Come up with idea for top 50 players.
Step 2. Find favourite website. Sort players based on points. Ranking done.
Step 3. Write 50 blogs without any real analysis. It's impossible anyway since they didn't keep advanced stats on the TimeCop.
Step 4. Collect $11.75 per day. Pay rent.

Kuemper will definitely get them past Nashville.....unless he injures himself during his pre-game nap. Vegas has the odds of that happening at around 86%

You are quite correct about that, from today's standpoint, that scene is inexcusable. Even then it's hard to believe people just laughed about it.


Also, thanks for telling me his real nickmame, I was clearly confused.

We don't have the ability to measure for those times, and big hitting guys like Time Cop (honestly dude you are clueless) are constantly overrated. I think it's smart to question if a non-hall of famer was truly as good as remembered.

Maybe you wouldn't have to ask the question if you'd qctually watched a decent amount of play from the players you're ranking as the organization's best ever.

But yes, without graphs and spreadsheets, we'll never know if Alex Mogilny was ever good or not.

"Was he any good at defense? I don't know. Typically such big hitters are not, but he moved the puck pretty well and one year even had 51 points. The advanced stats don't exist to know if he was overrated because of the hitting and the scoring."


So without any advanced stats, the blogger has no clue about a player? Whether he was overrated or not? Pfft, what's the difference, it's the same with advanced stats.

Dude, Matchett, I’m usually totally with you, man. I like your posts. but it was clear Tanner was joking about the nickname, bringing up any other (fill in the blank movie reference)-Cop name.

Tanner, I may have been your critic at times, but I was curious to see what other references were going to be used with Time-Cop, etc. by other commenters. It lasted all but 2 posts.

All I can say is that after watching what happened this weekend, and is still happening, that I hope you have totally reevaluated your life and opinions. Denounce your morbidly obese fascist hero.

What in my post exactly led you to turn it into a political discussion? LOL

I would be happy to debate that with you and tear you apart again. As usual, you don't have the first clue. I'm available Tanner but you'll cower and hide.

You prove your ignorance more and more every day.
