    With the teams e played behind, I don't think Ozzie was ever called on to be a top 5 goalie. I certainly think he was capable; I'd put him in the discussion behind Roy, Hasek, and Brodeur of the time.
    But he played his position, very well, and didn't go crazy demanding glory and attention for himself in a time when goalies got away with doing that. And he's got good stats too!

    I'd put him in. Harrumph!

    What the fuck NHL


    https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2023/06/22/nhl-pride-specialty-jerseys/?fbclid=IwAR3w3fneBcrJDSqJtIQY6xTkaIZQCBNAeuVRRP9wqnzEmT-wCeVhsymQiYQ


    NHL commissioner Gary Bettman says players will not wear Pride or other specialty jerseys during warm ups next season.

    This comes after several controversies during the 2022-23 season, much of which was around Pride jerseys for nights dedicated to celebrating 2SLGBTQIA+ communities.



    This HAS to be a capitulation to players and the NHLPA about forcing people who didn't like wearing a pride themed jersey to wear one.

    Bettman is such a fucking coward and so are the owners.

    Yeah, I saw a comment somewhere recently where you arent an ally if you arent afraid of getting hit by the same thrown stones. And if you arent afraid you need to get closer as an ally.

    Most of the mega corps cant seem to run fast enough as soon as there is anything more than a token Fox News segment of resistance.

    Taylor Hall (and Nick Foligno) have been traded to Chicago. Foligno is just signing rights as he is a pending UFA. I'm not sure why he was included in the deal.

    Boston gets a couple non NHL players, one I believe is/was NCAA. But the real return for Boston is some guy named "Cap Space"

    Everything changed for Chicago when they got Bedard. They finally decided to go full rebuild and when that lottery ticket hit and they got the next Connor McDavid that changed the program.

    Now they can't really "eh we'll suck for 3-4 years while we stock up" because they have the next "best player in the league" right now.

    But they keep giving up on their other good kids after a year or two.

    Maybe now they finally have the cap space to keep them, I guess. Maybe they wouldn't have been bad enough to take a number 1 draft if they didn't trade away their good kids, I guess

    Yeah part of the reason they kept giving up on them was that really until this past season they were still "trying to win" with Toews and Kane on the roster. so you eject younger, unproven guys for veterans that have won before in the hope that you will get one more run out of them.

    And they were also pretty capped out, especially the last couple of years with the pandemic induced freeze on the salary cap. when you're paying 21 million in the cap for the corpse of Johnathan Toews and only one working hip on Patrick Kane, that's going to be difficult.

    It’s only within the last two seasons that they committed to the idea of rebuilding. The Debrincat trade was in response to that idea. I think the idea behind the Hall trade is that the Blackhawks roster is garbage and if they want Bedard to have a chance of developing in a useful way then they should have competent NHL players for him to play with. I don’t think the team is under any delusion of being good for a couple years still, even with Bedard.

    I didnt see a standalone hollow knight threat so i figure this is fine - like a week ago I gave hollow knight a fresh chance. My friend was being excited that someone made a multiworld randomizer and I was like "i did like that game but i had gotten hard stuck on soul master" when i played it 3-4 years ago.

    I had also been playing it on switch and there's something just bad about joycon platforming.

    So i started a new run on steam, got through hornet without a death, immediately died to environmental nonsense getting to the city like a champ, and then finally for the first time defeated the soul master. (three tries this time. as opposed to infinite without a win. I'm sure it helped lol, knowing the basic attacks it had)

    But man, I've been on a tear since then. This game is just phenomenal. I'm sure there were ways around soul master, but getting them dead and just making nonstop progress since then has been so satisfying. I've got a few zones left to fully delve but I think i'm heading to my last of the "bare minimum to unlock the final boss" seals and since I've been told you can continue from there to get the additional endings and DLC stuff, I'll probably try to make that push next.

    Not sure if this was your issue, but after putting probably a hundred hours into HK and then not playing it for like a year, I started playing again on the switch version and it was like all my muscle memory was failing me. I was missing jumps all over, even after 20-30 minutes. Turned out I didn't have my new TV set to game mode, and fixing it cleared up the issue immediately.

    I honestly wouldn't been happy with like a 3rd. He's quick but not skilled enough for top 6 and not a hard enough worker for bottom 6. Maybe he needs to be on the wing instead of center.

    Also the schedule is out. Tripleheader on ESPN to start the season October 10. October 11 all 7 Canadian teams play, with all games on a Sportsnet channel. There's also the TNT doubleheader that day.

    October 24th is an interesting day. All 32 teams play. WSH/TOR kicks off at 6pm et. then there's another game starting at 6:30. then another at 7, then another at 7:15, then another at 7:30, then another at 7:45, etc.

    There's a game starting every 15 minutes until the last game start at 11pm ET, PHI @ VGK.

    Would be better if that wasn't a Tuesday, but still, I love the concept.
