After a good start, it looks like the shine has worn off of Mrazek a bit. His last 4 starts? L: 4-1; L: 7-6; L: 4-1; L: 5-2 with an .853 SV% in those games.

His total stat line in 7 games: 3W, 3L, 1 OTL; 3.1 GAA, 0.889 SV%

I’m shocked, shocked I tell you.

The Flyers are so inconsistent it’s ridiculous. They are probably going to sweep in round 1 then go up 2-0 and lose 4 in a row.

I'm only going to give myself a small pat on the back, because with so few games played, one or two decent games gets Mrazek right back to decent stats. But I said Mrazek didn't strike me as that great and didn't have numbers much better than Darling, and I didn't really want to give up anything for him. We did and still do need to aim higher than that.

Sometimes I feel like you are more English than some guys here, mostly because your reference game is very strong

Honestly at one point I kind of thought Lempo was pretending to be from Europe. The reference game is one thing, but you have a sense of wordplay and puns that I've never seen in a non-native speaker.

The puns are really good.....and then sometimes it seems the writing is coming out of an online translator. The dichotomy is fascinating.

All part of a long con, I assume.

Lempo is a full on polyglot. I don’t quite recall what it was, but I remember him making a fantastic pun in German on the politics board one time.
Someone got pointed out for messing up writing 'totenkampf' but got away for it sounding cool; the 'mein kopf sounds like hungover Hitler' thing was just hanging there. I don't speak German.

I'll go ahead and say I'm still a fan of Mrazek. I think he has a lot of talent just needs more consistency.

Also RE people talking about his attitude....I don't mind a goalie with a lot of pride who gets upset at losing. Sounds like the attitude we need more of in our org.

If I was I would prolly do it to get the ladies instead, like the guy in Police Academy.

The last episode if Psych I saw had some great Police Academy references. Now I really want to go watch them all again.

They really don't make movies like that or Naked Gun, Top Secret, Airplane, or Hot Shots anymore...seems like that sense of humor is largely dead with this generation :(.
