News and Notes Thread 10: Where all media bias gets beaten to death

[Anton Babchuk]

Doug has the most ridiculous bias against anyone under 5'11'' and tries to justify it in any way possible even when confronted with evidence that he's wrong.

and he's completely off base with the advanced stats. he's totally ignoring shot attempts and shots - which are HEAVILY in favor of liles vs. bellemore to the point of it being absurd - and instead focuses on goal differential and zone starts. he believes that bellemore is better than liles based on their usage even though liles is performing far better. he doesn't seem to take into account that perhaps liles gets more offensive zone starts because he's not brutal with the puck. i mean, what the hell is bellemore going to do in the offensive zone?

Has he even entered the offensive zone? I thought he only reverse cherry picked in the neutral zone. I'm not advocating he do otherwise, to clarify.

He's got a similar take on Gerbe, and today has compared Marner to Yakupov (in a bad way) and has fawned all over Crouse.

This is kind of amusing if you read bottom to top

How about no-olio!!!

Seriously that would be taking as big of a chance as keeping skinio.

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

ekaneo is a cancer and bad person, because he is not white, listens to rap music and styles his hair in ways other than a comb over or mullet (the only two acceptable styles for hockey tbh)

 

[nobuddy]

ekaneo would be a bad addition to the team coached by the RACEIST bilpeteo

Wouldn't you think that sending a message that Chris Terry is more worthy of playing time than you is significant?

sure, if it were anywhere near true.

You can't just scratch everyone who goes through a scoring drought. That's not really how hockey works.

You can't just scratch everyone who goes through a scoring drought. That's not really how hockey works.

Maybe not in a legit season with a playoff berth on the line. But in a year-long training camp you surely can make all the points you want by benching players until you have their attention.

And there's a LOT more going on than a mere scoring drought. That drought's a symptom, not a cause.

Bugsy is getting the "message" so surely Skinner can..... Play "heavier" Jeff.
