I thought Viola was relatively cool as far as sports team owners go, is there a reason I should dislike him in this new position?

There has to be something wrong with him if Trump picked him.

Oh PS the Bruins recalled Vatrano from Providence. This is a very exciting development for me, and all other Bruins fans, because Franky V is probably our best prospect and also probably way overrated by people like me. He led the AHL in goal scoring last year with 36 goals, which might not sound like a whole lot, but he also only played 36 games with Providence.

Man I am not looking forward to Karl Alzner's and John Carlson's next contracts. Alzner is rumored to get close to $6M for many years for being a one-dimensional stay at home defenseman who drags the team offensively when he is on the ice, and Carlson has been incredibly lazy and dumb for the past two seasons and he's probably going to get like $7M+ at the end of next season.
Carlson was wonderful last year.

Jon Gillies made 92 saves in Stockton in his last 2 games (he won them both). Now that's the dude we drafted. Save percentage of.958 in those two games.

Carlson had a great postseason last year which itself was fueled by great power play success (in large part to the Flyers having the worst possible defensive game plan against the Capitals PP). His regular season was injury-riddled and disappointing.

He's incredibly frustrating to watch because it looks like he's not trying most of the time. Not in the "he makes it look so effortless" way but in the "he's lazy as poo poo" way. He's not a bad player by any means but he's nowhere close to a true #1 defenseman either, and that is the type of contract he will be seeking.

Definitely off-topic, but anyone still playing Rocket League around here? I just logged in for the first time in a month or two and played the hockey mode and is actually really loving awesome now. They totally fixed the puck physics and, imo, the game works much better as hockey than soccer. It's better than NHL :v: and I'm really enjoying it (helps that apparently I'm really good at it, like 17-6-23 in 7 games so far) and I'm looking for people to play with because I'm sick of lovely pubbies who crash into me constantly.

I was thinking of posting a thread in TAQ if there's actually a contingent of people who are still playing.

Nash also hurt his other groin and is back on the injured list indefinitely.

Austin and Willie were always getting broken up eventually anyways since the plan has always been at least to try Nylander at C.

I'd prefer Matthews/Marner since I think that would be dynamite and probably what will happen when Nylander moves full time but I can see why they'd think they want to give Nylander the better wing combo if the goal is balanced lines.
