[J. Walter Weatherman]

Until Phoenix moves to Quebec in which case we Eli and the rest of Kansas City welcome back our friends from the Motor City Brolumbus.

CONFERENCE III'd

[J. Walter Weatherman]

BTW, speaking of Conference III...

First up, check out the Conference III shoulder patch from Chris Cieslak.

Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuup.

[Slaky]

It was just handy fact--which  technically had wrong but the basic point remained true.

This sentence is so good. I just want to bathe in it all day.

Good gravy

[Slaky]

So enough of this tardfeud.

Here's my hot sports take: I think we're going to feel awfully silly after the game tonight for being remotely concerned about how this turns out.

Hawks win big. 5-1 is your final.

Until Phoenix moves to Quebec Seattke before the league expands into Quebec and Markham Ontario in which case we welcome back our friends from the Motor City.

This is still hockey. There will still be some pants-peeing and hair-pulling and ill-conceived recriminations, and rightly so.

5-2 Hawks, sealed by a gutsy empty-netter by Brain Bickell.

It's a nail-biter halfway through the third, but the Hawks pull away late, 4-1.

GWG for Kane, just because.

There's a lot of TLDR in the exchange but if I'm following it correctly Huey is saying that his statement of fact being off by 30 years is just a technicality.

Did you go to Evelyn Wood Upstairs Reading College too?

Not trying to be obtuse here - you said a Hawk hadn't scored on a home penalty shot since the 80s. Yeti found a couple of times that it happened in 2011. Isn't that about a 30 year difference?

[J. Walter Weatherman]

My point was that scoring on a penalty shot is not a slam dunk.  The fact that a team went 25 years without scoring one at home was used to illustrated this fact, numbnuts.

How many home penalty shot opportunities did they get in those 25 years?

Probably not many, but your research already demonstrates that the success rate is not that great--just greater than a typical power play.

By the same token, Barry Bonds' success rate was not that great in 2001, hitting a home run in only 11% of his plate appearances. That's just one homer every 2.1 games, hardly a "slam dunk."

No, I'll defend the tard here. He remembered one of the 2 times in 2011. Really, I only remember the other one in 2011, CAUSE I WAS THERE, MAN.

[CT III]

4-1 Hawks.  Fuck Detroit.

1-0 Hawks in double OT.  I'm not sure why people think this will be easy.
