I’m confident that Tarasenko is still good enough offensively to score goals against high schoolers.

I loved how Thompson couldn’t get a word in without a homer being inserted into the conversation.

Are they? I will look into it on Twitter. Tampa gave a lot!

Yeah it wasn't just last year, it was the season before when a disastrous back to back against Ottawa just before the deadline led to Yzerman abandoning the season. Is the Wings' depth so lacking that even an injury to a middling player like Copp can send them downwards? At least last year the slide coincided with the loss of captain Larkin. Is it goaltending hitting the wall this time of year due to defense all year not being strong enough? Anyways, I'll try not to overreact just yet. It has only been 3 games. But picking up 0 of 6 available points this time of year is killer, especially when 2 of the 3 games were at home and when 2 of the 3 games were against teams at the same level.

sorry wrong thread.

Speaking of Cobb again, I’ve posted both of these clips on this board before but in case you haven’t seen them I’ll post them here. One is Cobb on a tv game show in 1953, the other is a 15 minute interview with him a few years later in which gave he discusses the 1908 pennant race A third one I came across more recently is an interview with him at his home in 1930 as he pets a dog throughout

Lyon stops a penalty shot but the Wings can’t take advantage. 3 straight regulation losses!
-
They won’t be sellers. The only reason they won’t buy is if the market is skewed to prices too high. But even sellers’ market won’t have them sell, nor would a blowout loss before that

Soderblom gets the Wings on the board, plenty of time left.

Wings in white at home, wearing the Winter Classic jerseys.

Wings looking listless, another 2-goal deficit. 12 minutes to go vs Carolina.

His poor play at the 4 Nations spooked Canucks fans too. They were hoping I'd play like Raymond did there, which could serve as a confidence boost and springboard to a better final 1/3 of the season with the Canucks. Or at the very least would have served as a showcase to the rest of the NHL that in a new environment Petersson could thrive again if the Canucks decided to move on from him.

Has to be something like depression or a painful divorce or something. I can’t think of a player in any sport falling off a cliff so hard since Dontrelle Willis.

Yeah, fans and players remember that this time last season is when the Wings lost 7 straight, all in regulation, to not only lose their cushion but fall out of a playoff spot. It has only been 2 games so far, but nip in bud.

So what does the playoff situation look like as of today March 3, with 22 games to go? - No surprise that Toronto (12 pts up on Wings), Florida and Tampa (8 pts up on the Wings) have all distanced themselves from the Wings. The Wings aren't going to snag a top 3 spot in the Atlantic, they're competing for one of two wild card spots. Fine, negligible difference between playing 1st place Atlantic or 2nd place Atlantic, since any of the top 3 could end up in any of the top 3 spots - Keep expecting Columbus to fall off and the Wings could have delivered them a near-fatal blow the past week, but after winning 4 of 4 points from the Wings it is instead Columbus that holds the #1 wildcard spot - The Wings still hold the #2 wildcard spot but the Senators would pull into a tie and have more Regulation Wins if they win the game in hand they have on the Wings - The Rangers and Bruins are also lurking 2 points back of the Wings. The Rangers probably have the best roster of teams battling the Wings, but the loss of Adam Fox for awhile might hurt. Still a chance for NJ to fall down enough into a bubble spot, so can hope for that if the Rangers begin a surge into 3rd place in their division. - Montreal, Philadelphia and NYI are close enough still to be counted, at 3-5 points behind Detroit, but if the Wings end up having to worry about any of those teams they're in trouble and probably will have been passed by a couple of others before that - Pittsburgh at 8 points back and having 3 more games than the Wings is a non-factor. We can hope for Penguins' wins when they play bubble teams. Needless to say Buffalo is out too. In tonight's games: - Ottawa at Washington. Go Caps. - Buffalo at Montreal. Go Sabres. - NYI at NYR. Go Islanders.

I watched Anora last night after the Oscars. Can definitely see why Mikey Madison won best actress, I thought she was amazing, and not only did she display range within the movie but on talk show appearances she seems different than the role she played. So must have really done her homework and gotten into character. As for the full movie, I really liked it, especially the first 45 minutes and final half hour. Parts where they went looking for Ivan dragged just a bit. So I have no problem with it winning Best Picture, but I'd give it more like an 8 out of 10 than a 9.5 out of 10. Closer to Hangover in a way than to Pretty Woman. Would hardly even know it was an indie until I found out that the scenes where they entered venues looking for Ivan were the filmmakers crashing real-life events.

This show was legendary, especially those under host Brendan Bambury. Many a late night in our dorm rooms in the '80s being turned onto new alt music through the show. Can still find some old shows online. https://exclaim.ca/music/article/brave-new-waves-cbc-40th-anniversary

Gus had a good season last year but no way do I think he is worth a 2nd, especially after falling off this season.
