The Oilers top line is better than Florida's top line. Florida's 2nd, 3rd and 4th lines are better than the Oiler's 2nd, 3rd and 4th lines (but not by a lot) Florida's goalie is better than the Oiler's goalie (I think by quite a bit) I'd really like to see the Oiler's win it this year, but I'm...

Maybe we can trade Rudy for this Walker kid from Utah. He looks pretty good, and he's only 23... If you run the math, Rudy is only providing 0.01 blocks per game for every million dollars we pay him, compared to Kessler’s 0.84 rejections per million. Think we can also get Utah to throw in say...

@GopherWeatherGuy. My house in Austin TX just got hit with a storm that registered 84.5 dBZ. Have you ever heard of such a high value? I didn't think that was really possible. One of the neighbors says 2.85" of rain in 12 minutes.

Are you friends with Jim Cramer?

On the woman's side, Alya Puppe, Minnesota's 2024 hockey player of the year, is leaving the Gophers and will play for Minnesota State - Mankato, next year..

The SEC got smacked in the last playoff, so they had to change the rules.

I'm either reading a hardcover edition or listening to an audiobook. The latter comes into play when I'm jogging, walking my dog, or taking a long car drive. I always buy my books from my local bookstore, not Amazon. The local store appreciates my business, Amazon won't miss it, and it costs the...

Tubby Smith. I thought he'd do better here than he did.

GS by far over Houston. We're far more physical than GS, and they're coming off of a 7-game series so they're already worn down. Plus, we get the home game so they have to travel both tonight to get back home and on Monday to get to MN. Hanging around at home and shooting practice buckets is a...

I'll add Lebron to the list. He's fine doing a RUM where he steamrolls anyone in his way to the basket, but if someone touches him, he's on the ground rolling. I like that even his teammates could care less about him being down. They all just walk away and let him lay on the floor.

If at the end of the season we're tied with either the BLues or the Flames, we win on the tirebreaker - most regulation wins (and the second tie breaker as well, which is winning in OT prior to shootouts happening). So, if we get a point in our last game we're in the playoffs; or if the Blues...

Wild win in OT! And Blues lose in OT. So we’re a point ahead of them in the standings with one game left for each team. We’re in the playoffs if we win our final game, or if the Blues lose their final game, or if the Flames lose any of their three remaining games.
