"... a legend and an out-of-work bum look a lot alike, Daddy"
My favorite line in a movie full of classics.

The ability to differentiate between causation and correlation is a lost skill.I'm shocked Syndey Sweeney wearing Angelina Jolies dress to the Oscars caused the Dow Jones to jump

That said, this team is materially better with less Skinner.
Red wings are imploding...
For sure. It was more of a contrast to their normal statue powerplay than to the later ones last night.Guessing that was because the obvious goal of those last power plays was to get Byram the hat trick.
Benson is buzzing everytime he's on the ice
As usual, Benson’s goal comes from understanding where to move to better than everyone else. No hesitation. Charges to the empty space to make himself available. He’s done it all year and the finish hasn’t been there yet. But if you want signs he is going to be productive as he develops…he’s always where he is supposed to be.
OMG what an awesome outfit - hockey meets rodeo meets Garanimals
Saw where the play was going and got in position before Greenway even got the puck
I friggin love Benson. Still can't believe he fell to us last draft.
Red wings
They are getting caved in on too, two shutouts and allowing a minimum of 4 games.

Ah ok I thought something happened recently because I never read that here before, probably missed it somehow.Back when Eichel was a rookie, NBC Sports was doing a game of the week between Buffalo and Detroit. They went on and on about the US-born future superstar in the game that night... Dylan Larkin, hallowed be his name. They barely gave Jack the time of day. So, we started making jokes about Larkin, his holiness. And then it continued in how they were covered for a while and it just continued to be a thing.

Ooooh, Dylan Larkin. Not like he's McDavid or Matthews or anyone... he's Dylan Larkin. **** off NBC.
Are we the only board that’s still beating that horse to death or did other boards do the same?Back when Eichel was a rookie, NBC Sports was doing a game of the week between Buffalo and Detroit.

Beating a horse to death in a good way though.Everyone's a critic.
Jack edwards is in a league of his own.RE: Larkin
I can still hear Jack Edwards nearly 10 years ago, in mid-game play by play calling, “ puck recovered by Seidenberg, the most underrated defenseman in the NHL, carries it across his blue line, “
I blame some fraction of my drinking on that night.
who the hell cares what the metrics say he's a decent bottom 6er imo. I'm more worried that we still have Bryson in the lineup constantly.Here’s some questions I’d like answered:
Is Krebs still improving noticeably?
How certain are we that he’ll be better than a typical middle-of-the-road UFA center next season?
Is he even above replacement-level in any role we’ve seen him in so far?
I honestly don’t know the answers to these. To me, he does look great some nights, and makes a lot of bonehead plays other nights. His moneypuck stats and other metrics seem to look awful, even when he has what I consider good games. Which is fairly regularly lately. I like him!
Who is this guy, and how do we use him next season successfully? I need that question answered before we can even figure out what our needs are.
I think Kevyn has an idea where Krebs needs to be slotted next year (3rd or 4th line?).Here’s some questions I’d like answered:
