I liked the development of that bit.

Vey outshined Horvat in the preseason, so Horvat had to go to the Minors (where he might be a call-up option soon!). But Vey has had to move to the wing, which would pretty much entirely invalidate the ridiculous earlier premise of Horvat losing the battle between the two. It just doesn't actually make any sense...at all. Even the mistakes aren't logically congruent.

But my personal favourite...was the quip about Gustav Forsling's "Big Shutdown Game" i think. But it's so hard to choose. There are so many fun things that make very little sense.
