The Swamp

Traditionally the NHL avoids starting a round before the previous one is fully finished, but yeah with arena availability and stuff its not impossible.

Great start to the broadcast here, crazy that the two guys on air were witnesses to everything. Vibes are definitely that it was a chaotic situation, players were abandoning their cars and walking up to three miles to get to the gates, players and media were told they were being allowed to enter. It...

So I've seen one tweet saying he was released and was given a new tee time (around 10am) and one tweet saying he's been charged with 2nd degree assault of a police officer and reckless driving (pun!), so who knows what's going on.

travzilla

If he really didn't stop while the cop was holding his car, then that's dumb. It looks like a misunderstanding, but jeez. And then to not roll down window immediately? I dunno, seems like some entitled shit exacerbated by the fact he was at the course and probably figured he was in the clear. Yeah ...

travzilla

So initial reports seem to suggest: - Pedestrian killed in accident early this AM, road closed. - Scheffler shows up trying to get to the course, probably some confusion, thinks he can drive around - Cop loses his shit, goes into Die Hard mode on Scheffler's car. - Scheffler in cuffs and taken away ...

As the second round starts to wrap up, you can send me your two replacement players, keeping in mind you still can't have more than 3 players from a single team. New players will start contributing to your team at the start of round 3. https://i.ibb.co/vjzDJF7/image.png https://i.ibb.co/NyM2zDD/imag...

What a legend. I don't think there's been a unique/distinct voice in hockey play-by-play since he retired. (I guess I'm just thinking Canada, Doc Emrick was definitely distinct). Despite his age, never got the sense he ever turned into a grumpy, hate-the-kids-and-stats type like so many others of hi...

I'm sure there are some anti-semetic people at the rallies (and anywhere else people gather), but these protests are against the Israeli gov't, not jewish people. Otherwise, there are a whole lot of anti-semetic jewish people both there and living around me and in Isarel, etc, etc. Framing it as an...

Zibanejad - 2 x 1.8 = 3.6
Lafreniere - 2 x 2.6 = 5.2
Hedman - 2 x 1.4 = 2.8
Tarasenko - 2 x 2.4 = 4.8
Connor - 1 x 1.6 = 1.6
Rangers - W = 3
Total = 21

ESPN has Tarasenko with just 1G-0A last night

I may have gotten a little to aggressive with the multipliers. That's what pays off in the end! I've always wanted to go back and do some analysis of which players end up being the most valuable.... Here's how the final four teams from last year sorted out: https://i.ibb.co/4WY17HV/image.png https:...

And here are everyone's rosters:

1/3 of us picked CAR-EDM
4 others have NYR

First update - first 3 nights all lumped together. (might just be doing Mon-Wed-Fri updates instead of daily, depending on work schedule)

Got Degen and Nonlinear entries, will enter them in shortly and have a score update tomorrow morning.

Yeah watching live I thought it was in and out off the back of the net, so when they showed the first replay of it just going post to post, and doing that weird curve, I was definitely tugging on the shirt collar there. Must have been one of those cases where they saw a certain angle before TV had i...

Felt comfortable for about 13 total seconds of that game. Thank good for Georgiev.

So, no goalie section? It hasn't been as bad lately but for a while it felt like every team was changing their starter after every loss, and it was always messing up (my) fantasy playoff teams, so that's why I just made the "team" pick the defacto goalie. I feel like it was always the Pen...

Back again for 2024, its the (10th?) Swamp NHL Playoff Challenge! Rules: - Players are ranked by regular-season Points Per Game, then divided into 10 groups. Each group has a different "multiplier" to alter the value of the goals and assists those players score in the playoffs. This levels...

Hi!

Wasn't sure if there was still enough interest but if there's at least 5 or 6 people still interested... I'll put up a thread tonight!

man i've really developed a hatred for this league This past summer I consciously decided to take a big step back from following NHL hockey. The cowardly caving to homophobia was probably the final straw, but certainly not the only straw. Then add all that corporate shittery with what looked like t...

Chickened out on picking Mike Weir and went with Watson instead... 13 point swing would have put me ahead by 2.

Can probably think of 10 Blue Jays seasons where they missed the playoffs that were more enjoyable than this year. Of course that probably means they'll end up riding these bad vibes right to the ALCS. Can't even tell if they mini-tanked to get the Twins or if their weird schizophrenia landed them t...

I actually think Mario Lemieux fits this exercise better than Gretzky. The way Mario paired skill and finesse while dominating with power through the sloggy and michelin-man goalies in the 90's... he would be unstoppable today. Gretzky today would still probably see the game clearer than anyone else...
