  2. Well there's a news flash lol. Whats next, announcing water is indeed wet?
  3. Thays fair. I csn get with that. As for Draisatls off the puck sbolikity, he was a penalty killer up until last year I believe. Used to score a good amount of shorties
  4. It's just the nature of thre NHL these days. Players are faster and stronger. The slap shot is most gone and replaced with snap, wrist, and whippy shots. Flexible sticks are a necessity to generate the whip necessary for explosion off the stick. It's really not a new thing though. Ben about 15 or so plus years of it. Jagr used to break his stick on shootout attempts lol
  5. It is a reach but hey whatever gets people through the day. This team is pretty mu h in the same place with or without glue boy.
  6. single car crash, 7am, history of his problems. Will take some time to get blood work back if it turns into more than just a crash.
  7. Taxes are all over the place. My village I pay a ton but the other side of the village pays less. It doesnt make sense sometimes. Also depends if they have been previously grieved or not. Taxes overall are a bit lower in Suffolk but not low by any means. It’s Long Island. On average expect most places taxes are anywhere from 7-10k. They go up from there. Just make sure you ask because as I said, I pay around 15 and I’m nowhere near the high end of taxes lol.
  8. I meant mostly around fans, since there is the idea (understandably) that he simply racks up secondary assists and rides on McDavids wing which just isn’t exactly true. McDavid is 1 in my book but Draisaitl is 1a to me. The combo of a slower start plus McDavid really gets him mentioned so much less and he’s a very complete player to me. To me, if I had to start a team and was given the choice of Draisaitl or Matthews, I have no hesitation at all to picking Leon. None whatsoever.
  9. He still owns two places in Russia I believe and bought his grandparents and mom apartments next to each other in his home town I think For anyone that wants to see his interview with subtitles it’s here. An hour long. The Putin stuff starts mostly at 19 and change minutes. Goes on until around 35 or so minutes. Some other stuff he talks about is that he drinks in the offseason, partied it up pretty good here and there during the offseason where his gf stays with her parents so he can nurse a hangover alone, regrets lying to some nhl teams in the past when he said he was taking English lessons but instead was playing PlayStation, and as kids in boarding school they used to steal wallets and phones to buy ice cream and chocolate lol. He seems like a really down to earth guy. Even if you don’t want to watch it, I recommend everyone go to the 52:20 mark and just watch the last 7 minutes on why and how he ended up here. Very cool and it sounds like he 100% only wanted to play specifically for the Rangers even though he was getting better offers. Even names the team that his gf wanted him to choose that was offering more money (it’s not the Islanders). Very cool. I hope this all works out for him and I sincerely hope he isn’t out a long time. We need him. .
  10. Yeah he would. 14 days I believe. Quite possible he would have to quarantine there too but who knows with Russia.
  11. That’s what I was figuring. So why the time away from team? Has to have been so,egging else not being said like some sort of family threat
  12. 2 goals so far tonight for Fast...good to see.
  13. I really like Draisaitl. 10 gwg last year, even penalty killed in the past. He really gets very little credit.
  14. If Panarin is going there to get his family back here, we are probably talking about a good month or more. He can’t just literally fly there and throw them on a plane the following day. Then you’re also talking about a 2 week quarantine once he gets back here. But the other thing, and admittedly I’m very naive to this, is if this is coming from a former coach to make Panarin look bad, what’s the exact connection to Putin directly? Are we thinking Putin himself is asking the coach to say this? I guess it’s possible since you know, Russia, but still.
  15. The last calendar year hasn’t been good to us. Feb 24th last year was Shestys car accident......then mostly downhill since lol
  16. Dry brine worked out amazing. Very recommended for grilled chicken breasts
  17. Well, I don’t know about that. From 18/19 to now, even strength Draisaitl is second in the entire league in even strength points. Matthews is 9th. Goals Matthews is 2nd, Leon is 4th with only 9 less. Primarybassists, Leon is 7th while Matthews is like 41st. If you look at all strengths combined points, Leon is 2nd while Matthews is 12th. Goals Leon is 2nd, Matthews is one behind for 3rd. Primary assists, Leon is 6th, Matthews is 49th. http://www.naturalstattrick.com/playerteams.php?fromseason=20182019&thruseason=20202021&stype=2&sit=all&score=all&stdoi=std&rate=n&team=ALL&pos=S&loc=B&toi=0&gpfilt=none&fd=&td=&tgp=410&lines=single&draftteam=ALL I think Leon gets very little respect. Matthews is a better pure goal scorer but Draisaitl is a pretty complete player IMO.
  18. McDavid hands down. Hell I'd take Draisatl over Matthews too
