trying to force a rivalry between vgk and the coyotes doesn't make sense to me

Trying to force any rivalry doesn't make sense. They happen on their own or they just don't work.

In the other hand, having them play often sets them up for one down the road if they end up competing in the playoffs or for playoff spots.

I'm arbitrarily instituting the conference separation rule, meaning within a city primarily then state/province and finally regionally at least, teams within the same area cannot be in the same conference. In the same way that the Yankees and Mets are in different leagues, and the Jets and Giants are in different conferences. There will still be inter/intra-league play.

I'm going with Quebec, Toronto, Houston, and KC as the expansion teams. Much as I want one in SLC, I don't think that's gonna happen until after expanding past 36.

You cannot have Montreal and Quebec and put them in seperate divisions. I get what you're saying about the conference separation rule, but la Bataille du Quebec is one of literally 3 things QC has going for it. Even if you expanded to 36 teams.

Wouldn't it make a SCF meeting between them all the sweetly bitter?

An SCF between Montreal and Quebec would result in actual deaths.

Pettersson's hop on his game tying goal warms the cockles of my miserable old heart in a way I never could have imagined. Thank you Jim Benning for bringing such beauty into my life. I thought I would never love again.

I was catching up on recorded Jeopardy episodes and a clue from this week was about hockey in Arizona calling it blooming and claiming the Coyotes were in Phoenix.

Since the question was about the AHL roadrunners it was irrelevant but how bad do you have to be to get two wrong things about you in a Jeopardy clue?

While I do agree Orpik actually is the better option, right now the choice is between Bowey and Aaron Ness since Orpik is injured.

To the surprise of no one, Lemieux will very likely have a hearing when the Jets get back.

The knock on Brendan lemieux has always been his lack of discipline. He has enough skill to eke out a bottom 6 role. But I don't see Maurice looking kindly on this, especially since Florida scored on both power plays that Brendan gave them, and because the jets are already a highly penalized team. Wheeler and buff do enough to make up for all the penalties they take. The jets do not need an 8 minute a night player taking 7 minutes in penalties.

Ha, I remember that question and totally missed both mistakes.


Going to the Blues v Wild game tonight. It’s my mom’s first time going to a St. Louis game, so I’m hoping the Blues don’t embarrass me (I already warned her they likely will).
