I have Volume I on Blu-Ray and have seen most of Volume II. Admittedly, I haven't viewed many of the films that fall under the ESPN Films Presents banner as of yet.

Ranking was probably the wrong word choice. The three that I mentioned and "Big Shot" are among my favorites of the series.

...

I saw this on the main board and thought it was an interesting, albeit unsurprising statistic...

If accurate, Carolina leads the league in PPs For/PPs Against differential since the 07-08 season by a pretty substantial margin. Divercanes FTW!!!

Powerplay since that season:

13-14: 17.1 (19)
12-13: 14.6 (27)
11-12: 16.7 (20)
10-11: 15.9 (24)
09-10: 16.9 (22)
08-09: 18.7 (18)
07-08: 18.8 (8)

Only average or better once in the last 7 years and change is pretty terrible.

Is anyone getting a weird pop-up on their mobile device once in a while, makes it an all-white screen and goes to an ad called cdn.creative? Annoying......

Desperation is a stinky cologne. I'm glad rick gets a shot somewhere though, always liked him. That contract was stupid from day one. That organization has gone through some ridiculous moments. My favorite oscillates between some guy faking his way into ownership and Neil smith quitting as gm weeks into the job.

I just realized one, how young relatively Allen York actually is. I had him pegged as early 30's and he's actually only 24 which is weird. His success in CLB seems like a long time ago. Secondly, that Rick DiPietro might play a game for the Hurricanes. Both blew my mind. I would imagine that the organization is in no hurry to bequeath Mike Murphy any icetime, deservedly so or otherwise. I would expect Rick to get a crash course. Not literally, because.... well you know.

Several Canes out boozing it up past curfew in North Hills last night. Including underage drinking. Tsk tsk.

Maybe they're like, "hey it's Autoloss #2, might as well live it up until it gets real again."

I'm glad my 4 tickets for. tomorrow night were free.

That means lindholm and Murphy right? No other underagers.

I have no problem with it to be honest. It's always been that way with these guys. Just don't get into fights, arrested, and appear on sport center with your suit jacket over your head. That would be embarrassing.

Now that I check, one of the guys I thought was under age really is of age. So only one underage. I don't want to rat them out individually or anything, but them blowing off the coach already, when they are at the begining of what could be yet another death spiral kind of sucks.

But my god, what's life for if you couldn't go out have a drink every now and then? It's not like they're playing tonight.
