Kraft had an Energize Bunny night, like Devin has been.

Is DeSantis a lot stronger this year?  Hitherto it has always seemed like he finds the perfect spot to be but then gets muscled out the second he receives the puck.  Now everything is the same except... he holds his ground.  He isn't getting pushed around as much.

Ryan may turn out to be one of our best point producers in forever.  He is starting to look like a point-per-game guy, which was an endangered species under The System (TM).

But they did show some restraint in not continuing through the remainder of the delay.  That's something, right?
That is fair.  40 minutes would have cleared the building.

Quote from: VIEWfromK on November 16, 2025, 10:24:16 AMThe band deserves a lot of props.  They took back Lynah Rink last night.  They played in pretty much every stoppage and it carried through during the intermissions.  The radio music was significantly at a lower volume thankfully (except for one song during the delay).  If the band can continue to beat back that noise they will regain what helps make Lynah unique.  Thank you guys.  Great work.

Two cheers for them.  They also did their interminable Jeopardy during the stoppage.  That is something they do only for themselves.  It's as selfish and irritating as Karoline Leavitt.

But other than that they came across very well on the broadcast and the crowd was more up, probably not coincidentally.  They are our biggest weapon in the fight to the death against Jock Jams.

Quote from: andyw2100 on November 16, 2025, 10:00:21 AMI'm wondering why there needs to be any vinyl that can cause problems if the ice winds up too thin. Why not just go old school and just use paint or dye or whatever it is that used to be used before the vinyl?

For that matter, why not remove all the derp from the ice except the lines, circles, and dots.

Will it lead to beheadings?

I was told there would be beheadings.

Hard to believe they permanently fucked up the ice.  They will just go back to whatever the process was the last, oh, 70 years.  Lesson learned.  You can't just change without a study and experiments, which the dorks will do in the Spring.

My god we must have one material science person who can handle... water.

It does not mean anything in November, but I'd rather be 3 than 53.

Quote from: chimpfood on November 15, 2025, 09:49:06 PMCan't be turtling like this against Brown and Yale. Sure ain't gonna fly against Quinnipiac and BU.
I don't think this is parking the bus.  It's more like the bus stalls then bursts into flame.
