Not sure this part of the board gets much traction anymore but anyone want to join a H2H fantasy league with some others from LGP? A group of us started it like 10 or 12 years ago, just got a spot open up. Draft is Monday!

Yeah very sad. I liked him and my like list is quite short.

I got nothing else to do so I guess I'll watch this first game.

Watching John Buccigross call TB-NSH, and I’m reminded of an Austin Powers quote.

Edmonton may literally be doomed. According to Duhatschek in the Athletic, only 7 teams in history have won the Stanley Cup after losing their opener by 3 or more goals. The 2015-16 Penguins were one of them. No team has ever won the Cup after losing their opener by 4 or more goals.

They outshot the Canucks 40-16, had 7 power plays including a 5-3…and lost 4-3 to Casey DeSmith.
