They may be in the playoffs, but the Jets are very much still the Thrashers.

4-22-15 - Pens vs. Rangers Game (4) Day Thread

Pens really need at least two of Ehrhoff, Maatta, Letang, or Pouliot. Sad part is, they may only get one.

Those are noble suggestions, but very pedestrian. I want something entertaining. Have everyone in your office get lo mein or something of the sort, then slurp the noodles while you're on the call. Or substitute that for whatever the noisiest food you can find is. Do it a few times and they'll get t...

Probably the same reason TSN had Roberto Luongo on a few times, and I think Ryan Miller did something similar.

But more to your point, I have no idea why they picked Shawn Thornton of all people.

Have you tried just asking that the timing of the call be changed to earlier in the morning or later in the day?

Best/worst Interview Questions

I was asked the 5 years question. I told the interviewer I expected to be sitting in my bosses chair.

I am.
Nice to hear your company likes to give hand-me-downs. :pop: :slug:

? The sample size is denoted by the "N" column. N in statistics = number of subjects or participants. There were 40,571 participants in the study. 8529 were Catholics. As for the asterisk (which I think you're looking at), it is only referring to Unitarians. Every other denomination has at least 200...

I'd wager somewhere close to Ovechkin/Kane/Toews money. Between 9 and 11 mil, depending on where the cap lies.

It's still early for him there. Probably still playing with some adrenaline.

Given his time here, he'll come back down to earth eventually.

No, that's incorrect. They got rid of that with the new CBA. I think it would only take off something like 600k of his cap hit. You're right, I was looking at the 2005 CBA. In that case, I still think you put him on waivers. If no one claims him I would buy him out at the 917k a year for the next 4...

Pens Gm FLIPS on Tribune Review columnist

Only other alternative to buying him out that I can think of other than trading him would be convincing him to retire. He signed his contract at age 34, so it doesn't qualify for the 35+ contract stipulations, and the cap hit would disappear (Pens would still need to pay him the salary, but no cap h...

I always have to have the power button on my car radio facing up. Not exactly OCD, but a weird habit nonetheless.

If I'm counting it right, there are 14 or 15 states that do not have a blue county.

And I find it odd that Orleans Parrish is not blue.
But the one island in Hawaii is.

I would wager it has something to do with the maths.

I'm still confused as to where Sarcastic got Scuderi's stats post trade.

It's almost like he missed Scuderi's 2 game point streak :pop:

Also, I mean, come on. Looking at Scuderi's point totals? Low hanging fruit.
