Think Pinto has a same game parlay on this one? -
It's been a hot minute since I set it up, but yes, and it's completely hassle-free. Like, don't even need to open a chat or anything.

Ah. Good to know. Still, huge fan of G-Fi

If you're alone on your plan (or if you're on a family plan where data is irrelevant to you), take a good look at Google Fi. I pay $50/month for unlimited calling and data, but there's a shorter plan that's $20/month +$10 per GB that I used before they dropped the price of the unlimited plan. I think they piggyback the Verizon and TMobile networks.

Trivia is Mark Messier and Pat Verbeek -
Statistically speaking, and for emotional protection, it's the safe bet. You're not at all likely to win the cup. Not in a 32-team league. Not in a 26-team league. And not when there are six teams and all the talent is in Canada, Massachusetts, and the Upper Midwest, and you have no access to that talent because of territorial rights. I don't think it serves any of us to expect a Cup win simply because it is highly likely to end in disappointment. At the same time, though - push to shove, isn't this the single best team we've put together in nearly a decade? Heck, scoreboard! We've won more games this season than in any other. A win tonight sets the franchise points record and solidifies that this is the best regular season team we've ever iced. We have the goalie. We have the defenders. We have the forwards. We have the depth. We have the size, the speed, and the skill. The conference is weaker than it's been in years, and we're king of the heap. What fun is there in being a fan if you can't let yourself get attached to hope when there's good reason to?

Just run these clowns out of the Garden. Go full force - you're going to have a whole goddamn week off after this. Panarin with a 6 point night. 2 goals, 4 assists. Lets fuckin go baby. -
I think it's a calculated gamble, tbh. It's just the optics they need to grease his palm. From the fan perspective and the player perspective, I can't possibly agree with you more. This guy is a scumbag through and through. From the NHL perspective? By this time on Friday, the NHL will have gotten rid of their worst owner. They will have acquired and re-sold the worst performing, least valuable franchise and moved it to a new market for $200M in the owner's pockets. And, everyone in that room is far more than the 7M a head or whatever richer, because if the Coyotes were worth $500m, that was a miracle. They're going to sell for more than double their actual value to the NHL, and then 20% on top to transfer to Smith. That's the value. Every single owner can now point to the Coyotes sale and say "if they got 1.2B, I can claim it's worth more than that". The gamble is simple: Meruelo has five years to buy land, build a new arena, pay the owners back the gap in valuation, and then exercise the clause to reactivate the franchise. It's a big, big ask, and while some folks may be skeptical, I'll point to all the evidence between 1996 and 2024 to suggest it won't be a real thing. The NHL absolutely will return to Arizona. It may even return to Arizona before the 2030s start. But it won't be because of the Scottsdale arena proposal and it won't be with Meruelo as an owner. It'll be with Mat Ishiba, when the Footprint Center starts to age out (I know they just did renovations) and the Suns start to push for a new arena toward the end of the decade.

Rangers Draft RW Gabriel Perreault in 1st Round (23rd Pick)

We stole this kid. He's got some size and skating concerns, but he's so goddamn smart, creative, and talented that you can see that top 6 floor. -
It's Time to Talk About Jacob Trouba
LindG1000 replied to RichieNextel305's topic in New York Rangers
I'd wonder about chance quality here. A great goaltender probably saves 70% of high-danger chances, and I'd take a swing that HDCA has been meaningfully up in the last few games, particularly with Trouba on the ice. -
It's Time to Talk About Jacob Trouba
LindG1000 replied to RichieNextel305's topic in New York Rangers
It's just time for Trouba to be a third-pairing D. And I really wonder if the reason he isn't is that Gus-Schneider supports the forechecking pressure provided by the Wennberg unit so much better than Trouba's chucking. He really needs to get to rights and simplify his game, fast, or we're going to be blown the fuck away on rushes against.
