Zodijackylite posted:How does Ovechkin fare with grinders? I feel like he's the type of player who can be on a line with two guys who dump and chase and he'll just find open space and score if they manage to get the puck off the boards. Alex Ovechkin is the most selfish man on Earth so it doesn't matter who his wingers are. One time I saw him pick up $1 on the ground and throw it away. He didn't want it, he just didn't want anyone else to have it.

Jamwad Hilder posted:I don't really understand the chart to be honest but it appears to be "who is way luckier than expected" so my guess is Backes or Heinen GF% and xGF% are team stats. xGF% is based on wizardry like shot quality and type which isn't easily put into numbers or visualized or understood or understandable. It's Grzelcyk, somehow. The one further and down and more to the right is Marchand.

Jamwad Hilder posted:I guess they were betting it was a fluke season which isn't totally unreasonable, it happens, but I also forget who they opted to protect instead of him. If he had had another good season with Florida they probably couldn't have afforded to keep him either, although that still doesn't excuse losing him for nothing. All the guys they protected they pretty much had to, but Florida traded Smith so that Vegas would take him.

grack posted:Florida specifically left Marchessault unprotected as part of the trade for Reilly Smith as they wanted to dump the latter's salary. Smith, it should be noted, is on pace for a 66 point season. Sure that's technically true, but it's funnier the way I said it.

Reminder that you guys thought the player protection rules were bad for Vegas and discussed several times how it was designed to cripple the team out of the gate. And also liked Dustin Brown and the Kings.

Franson level players basically always clear waivers because teams need to make moves before bringing one of them on. It wouldn't be surprising to see him traded soon.

The Knights would have some kind of trademark for use of the name Knights in regards to hockey or something like that. It would probably only be in Canada though.

The Army has a Golden Knights parachute team. That’s what they cited when they disputed the trademark the first time.Nissin Cup Nudist posted:Right, but the Kentucky Wildcats dont sue the Northwestern Wildcats over copyright or trademarks. Why does London have any room to get huffy about Vegas also calling themselves Knights? Today they could and probably would have, but those names are like 90+ years old and paperwork was poo poo back then. Vegas simply could not get Knights in Canada, because London exists. They need it in both countries, so it wasn’t an option.

The army has to defend it because copyright law is actually super dumb (and so they might not actually care), but saying it out like that is going to hurt them.
