well he is the highest ranking member of Z shift.
The X3 soundtrack was already pretty grungy compared to X1 and X2, but the Genesis soundfonts just take it even further.
The Kings are in real trouble and are in the dreaded "black hole"—where you're too good to tank, but not good enough to make it out of the first round, resulting in middle-1st-round picks that become more appealing to deal in trades that tread water.
Rob Blake has bungled the development of what was once the best prospect pool in the NHL through the hiring of a coach ill-suited for development, roster decisions that don't set rookies up for success, and being reactive overall.
If you look at his trade moves devoid of context they are fine deals, but they were arguably moves that didn't need to be made or were untimely.
Just a shit show, really. It's the Dave Taylor era all over again.
Which, no, wouldn't be how a reasonable ship should be designed, but this is some satirical level of Capitalism going on so of course they cut corners building the ship. It being so easy to zap the crew from such a low-level task is part of the joke.
I can only assume it wasn't an easy mistake to make. It was the kind of error that would be 1 in a million or higher, where if the monitoring systems flagged it there's no chance the engineer wouldn't take note that the safety overriders were blaring warnings that they hadn't been able to contain the problem, unless they were stuck looking inward and obsessing about some cold soup. Everything is dangerous on a spaceship.
Especially soup, some would say. Heating coils, fluid handling systems...
There's a lot of potential still, but I've lost faith in the current management's ability to develop them properly.
These prospects are asked to come in and play on the 3rd and 4th line, be defensively responsible, and are busted back down to the minors or scratched if they make mistakes. And this is regardless of their potential.
At the same time, Blake keeps signing and trading for top-6 forwards, taking up line spots that could be used to bring said prospects along. Just last season they had at least 7 veteran forwards taking up the top 2 lines (Kopitar, Kempe, Danault, Arvidsson, Moore, Iafallo, Fiala) and outside of Byfield, no other prospect/young player played in the top-6. Even Vilardi, who broke out last year, did so on the 3rd line with Fiala and Iafallo.
Kaliyev has an NHL-level shot, and instead of setting up a power play around him, they bench him because he can't grind on the 4th line.
And that's just the issues with the forwards; we haven't even begun to talk about the defense and how Blake bungled that.
At least they're Titan-submersible quick when the death starts happening.
If only Queeg 500 was in charge...

And he spends a few thousand years thinking about how bad it was
Pretty sure Perry's retiring, especially if Chicago doesn't move his contract to a decent team.
Edit: Apparently Chicago just signed Perry to a one year deal, so I'm wrong... again.

They’re filling their roster with veteran bridge deals to help bring their prospects along.
Wouldn’t surprise me if they signed a couple of people that got bought out, too.
This looks to be just ???. Maybe there really is a locker room issue. Or they just dont know how to setup to tank
Colorado needs scoring with Lando out. I'd take Duchene in a heartbeat.

Current CC strategies:
Ah, the boss approaches from this zone.
Texalt deployment
Repeat as necessary.
Hopefully he figures out this whole "make a save during the playoffs" thing tho
Erik Motherfuckin Johnson to Buffalo.
Man
Dude was the longest tenured Colorado athlete
Stuck with the team through the worst and best
Like the absolute worst hockey team I've ever seen
I'm sadder to see him going than Lando at this point

On the other hand, Yzerman paying Compher $5.5M x 5 is hilarious. I never hated him like a lot of Avs fans but Bednar always seemed to over rely on him. Serviceable at 3C but you don’t give someone $5.5M a year for that spot, so best of luck.

No one could forget that face.
The recuperation lounge, I keep telling you! Blimey, no wonder you only scored 4%...
In the UK at one point the BBC did a sort of celebration of Red Dwarf and polled viewers for the favourite episode, and they'd show the winning episode to close it out. That one (Back to Reality) won, handily.
The car chase scene remains a personal fave, loved it.

"I have a riddle for you. What's dead and dead and dead all over?"
"I give in, Dr. Fruit-Loop, do tell me."
"Yooooooouuuuuuu!!!"
So let me get this straight: You want to ride on a magic carpet to see the king of the potato people and beg with him for your freedom. And you're telling me that you're completely sane?
