I know weird things happen in Dallas. I’ve been to 30 of them in person. But I just can’t see a path for that for us this year. Should be a UT blowout. Edited October 11, 20241 yr by lonestarsooner
October 11, 20241 yr Defensive strategy is solid. On a shot on goal it seems like there is always 2 or 3 sticks within 10 feet of the rebound to clear.

A few well known ones, but it still makes me wonder how y'all found this pit of sin.

Agreed. 22 SOG for the Preds but very few high danger chances. Otter has been solid. Looks calm and in control. D in front of him as played well. Lube has been better than I expected.

I’ve been on here since the days of Shaggy. I don’t post nearly as much as Constant or ChiTownDoc or PDawg though, lol. Damnit!
October 11, 20241 yr I’ve been on here since the days of Shaggy. I don’t post nearly as much as Constant or ChiTownDoc or PDawg though, lol. Damnit! You are welcome except for this Saturday. Ou sucks.
October 11, 20241 yr Yes I think they still have Saros at #1 but he’s hurt. God help them is Wedgewood is their #1.
October 11, 20241 yr Hey anybody going next Saturday afternoon? EDM in town. I’ll be there for the 3p start. Maybe grab a beer if things work out?
October 11, 20241 yr Not the cleanest 3rd period. But it’s a W. Thank god for the posts behind Otter.
October 11, 20241 yr Never a doubt. 82-0 still in play. Man that would probably be a record without looking it up.
October 12, 20241 yr I could use a clarification from Razor this morning. I'm trying to remember exactly how he phrased it. The implication was that Victory+ would not be carrying the next 15 games, but he and Josh could still be heard on the little ticket. A quick perusal of the Google machine said that the known TV and streaming until the Caps on Thursday are either ESPN+ or ABC. Hmm. I'm starting to wonder about the app. Are they trying to buy some time to fix stuff or what is up?
October 12, 20241 yr How early in the season can I get banned form this thread? @blacklab what do you think?Let's get it out of the way early!
October 13, 20241 yr Just got home from dinner. Glad to see a start from the beginning option with Victory+. Let’s go!!!
October 13, 20241 yr Another good win. We’ve gotten very fortunate with posts behind Otter the first two games. But 2-0 feels good to start the season.

October 15, 20241 yr Hey, the Avs have only allowed 5 goals tonight! Still 9 min to go, tho.... Whoops, empty netter for the 20th goal allowed in the 1st 3 games this season. Edited October 15, 20241 yr by Beau Vine

You'll find I'm the last person to gatekeep anything. Unless you are using that term in a way that is not colloquially accepted. Anyway, so while you were sitting on your ass watching the game I was at the TX/OU game and the two home games, so you can thank me for 3-0, actually.

Nice work. I knew I would have nothing left in the tank after TX/OU game so sold first 2 games as well as next game. And I'll be in Austin for UGA Sat and then have stuff the next Sat as well. So who knows when I'll actually be able to make a damn game. Unpopular opinion but hockey season shouldn't start until mid-November. Fall is too damn busy.

I think the regular season is too long period given the grind of the playoffs but that's another discussion (not to mention would not work for the league economically to give up games). But I would gladly trade relevant sports in the middle of summer dead period in exchange for less overlap with football season. I love the Stars and hockey generally but college football Saturdays will always come first. I'm sure others feel the same about NFL. I think the NBA should do the same FWIW. Both sports lose a ton of potential viewers for Sat/Sun/Mon/Thur games during the fall (not to mention MLB post-season) Edited October 15, 20241 yr by Skipper

Both sports lose a ton of potential viewers for Sat/Sun/Mon/Thur games during the fall (not to mention MLB post-season) yeah, and I think that's the problem, at least from the NHL viewpoint. It's the least popular sport of the ones you mentioned, so there won't be much consideration for accomodation from the others. I think the reality is, though, that the NHL will be motivated to start the playoffs as early as possible in the near future as it's really hard to maintain ice when it's 95 degrees outside.

My kids lacrosse org is doing a silent auction on 11/11 and are looking for tickets. For real tho.
October 15, 20241 yr I'm actually already doing that for our elementary auction and split tix with a buddy so pretty limited there.
October 15, 20241 yr Author Called up Petrovic today which I guess means Dumba is on the shelf for a minute. Hope it's not serious, but if it is, put him on LTIR now and go get someone else - maybe we can finally get Chychrun Edited October 15, 20241 yr by Longhorn_Fan68
October 16, 20241 yr I don’t recall being able to use my tv remote for Apple TV on the Ballys app when casting. This is awesome.
