Definitely will be fun seeing Rodgers play in Buffalo this season!
-
The ironic thing is, the team that you support isn't even built for the type of play in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. They're more suited for Olympic hockey. Even during the Sundin years, where they actually went past the first round several times, they weren't a tough hard hitting team.
-
Yeah I think the last time NHL players participated were in 2014 in Sochi. So almost 10 years.
-
NHL Players aren't able to participate now in Olympic hockey, so yeah obviously. When was the last time they were allowed to participate? 2014?
-
Should have read my post and the specifics. Sure if it's Canada vs. Italy, that game will be a joke. I was talking about when the elite teams play each other. You're watching the best of the best square off, talent wise!
-
Should read my posts. I said when the elite teams play against each other like Canada, USA, Russia, Sweden etc. A lot more talent is on display. I couldn't care about watching crappy players like Wayne Simmonds or Ty Domi play in the Playoffs only because they act as tough guys on the ice.

Tucker will be fine. He'll get a new show eventually or start his own podcast. He has a huge following. Doubt anyone brings on Dom Lemon for a Prime Time role again. Maybe he finds himself as a host on a morning show on NBC or CBS. Maybe the View haha. -
Lots of hot baseball chicks!
-
You described it perfectly. In Olympic hockey, there is no way a top country like Canada, USA, Russia, Sweden etc., even rosters useless players like Wayne Simmonds or Tanner Jeannot. Olympic hockey is really the highest level of hockey, more than the NHL Playoffs. From watching the Canada/USA Gold Medal game in 2010, you'll never see that level of hockey in a NHL Playoff game. Yes granted, NHL Playoff series are Best of 7, though I bet if you had those 2010 teams playing a Best of 7, would have been amazing hockey every game!
-
I'll go with Varsho
-
I prefer Olympic hockey the best IMO. Faster skating game, more skill being displayed and not as much physicality as in the NHL Playoffs.
-
Yeah I'm going to try starting tonight haha.
-
Must win for Edmonton tonight.
-
Yeah it's a shame this is happening the second season in a row in the AL East. Not much you can do. Jays have to keep pace and hope they can go on a major run at some point in May or June. Taking 2 of 3 against the Yankees was huge. Hope they could sweep the White Sox at home this week, or at least win 2 of 3. There are no more excuses that "it's still early" if the Jays lose a winnable game in April or May. When you have a team like the Rays banking wins early, you have to keep within striking distance.
-
Gotta start betting the Rays, so they lose! I'll take one for the team haha.
-
Please put on entry waivers in LOD

GDT: 2/3 Toronto Blue Jays @ New York Yankees (1:05 et)
jaysblue replied to Omar's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
This will likely be an issue in the Postseason unless someone like Pearson or Green can take on that role of a relief ace not named Romano. Blue Jays bullpen is decent and has nice depth but like Laika said, it's a bunch of middle relievers. Ideally you want to have another relief ace or two who isn't your closer. -

Big win for the Leafs. Was watching the game and they definitely pulled out a tough grueling win. Hope they can take care of business in Game 4 and come back to Toronto and clinch in Game 5.
-
They had some good teams in the early part of the last decade. Need to build up some more pitching. Could be a opening in the NL Central over the next couple of seasons. If the Brewers lose both Burnes and Woodruff as FAs, they won't be as good. St. Louis is getting older. Cubs are heading in the right direction, and the Reds could be as well. Pirates definitely can make some noise.
-
He's definitely one of the few baseball stars I would pay to see! When the Angels come to town and if he's pitching, I would definitely splurge to buy good seats.
-
Gallen is a stud. D'Backs could use another power bat or two in their lineup. Their offense has been meh this season.
-
What do you expect when the Stanley Cup Finals are being played at the end of June? NHL Playoffs are fun, especially during the first round like you said. You'll definitely have a lot of thrilling games. But yeah, you can tell as you go into the later rounds teams do become exhausted and the games are slower paced. It definitely is more of a physical game.
-
I'll go with Bo again for today

Agree 100% with everything you said. I don't want to hear guys like Mike Wilner after a loss or blowing a game using the excuse, "it's still early." We saw in the AL East that doesn't apply and even more this season. Every game this month is as important as a game in September.
