I mean... I'd expect about the same out of the Sparx if dropped when not in the case as I'd expect from a TV, or a laptop. I would expect that I'd be pissed and then I'd go buy a new one and be more careful next time.

You shouldn't need to, those are for goalie skates with cowlings. Goalie skates without cowlings don't even need them. You should be using the height adjustment knob instead. Though, whatever works for you 🙂

Yet, one of those scenarios is reviewable and the other is not. But that's not even my point. I GET that there's nothing they can do about it if they missed it. But you just can't miss that. It's PART of the play. That's as obvious a hand-pass as you'll ever see. Neither of them were actually watching the puck? I don't think I'm angry so much as just simply amazed.

Nailed it.

Oh god, the refs were at it again last night. Tons of mistakes on both sides but that OT winner... wow. No words. Its one thing if it just hits a guys hand and nobody sees it, but when a guy openly swats at it and they miss THAT? Brutal.

Dude... I have no words 😞

They will not be anywhere near the top of the division if everyone leaves.

Being a kickstarter backer I’ve had mine longer than most. And nope, no issues at all.

I honestly wish the topic title link itself took you to the first unread, at the very least if you're currently browsing from the "unread content" page. I looked to see if that was an option but I didn't see it. Maybe somebody has made a 3rd party plug-in...

The moves that looked incredibly stupid, that looked pretty smart after round one, now look incredibly stupid again. Not only losing your best players for nothing but doubling down to acquire more for a cup run? That’s a GM that should have been let go the day after they were eliminated.

He’s bitching about me.

Well that didn't take long. Some ignorant jackass on Boston radio hung up on a Carolina beat reporter because he (paraphrasing) "can't stand listening to a guy with a southern accent trying to talk hockey" Oh, the irony when it comes to accents...

I picked Blues in 6 before last night's game, but the Sharks changed my mind. I'm going Sharks in 7.

Quick turnaround on this series. I think the bunch of jerks from Carolina are going to pull it off. They've just been so damn consistent.

Weird. I haven't heard that at all.

There is no major for Illegal check to the head. It's either a minor, or a match penalty. Since there didn't seem to be any intent to injure, as you said, the match was not appropriate. I don't think it had anything to do with the apology thing that you seem really stuck on.

Depends who you ask, and what your definition of "performance" is. What is the criteria?

I guess I didn't see a dust tray as something that needed to be more durable.

Interesting. I wonder why the metal dust tray... Does the screw replace the plastic piece that you're supposed to install when moving the machine?

Makes sense 🙂 Nothing wrong with that!

First time I've ever played in a tournament. Won the first game Friday night 2-1. On Saturday we lost the first game by a score of 3-1 with an empty net (I'll get to that in a moment). Saturday night we beat the eventual champion 4-3 in a shootout (I'll be getting to that one as well). The team that won the tournament actually had two games they won with a score of 10-2. We ended up not making it to the championship. We were tied with another team for points, and goal differential, and ended up breaking the tie with a head-to-head (the team we lost to so they owned that tie breaker). Now for those notes... if we had won the third game in regulation rather than the shootout, we would have had the second most points and played in the championship. Beyond that, if we had NOT pulled the goalie in our 3-1 loss, we would have also owned the goal differential tiebreaker from a 2-1 loss and still made the championship. Oh, hindsight on the decision to pull the goalie... I never in a million years would have thought an empty net goal in the second game would have ended our run... All in all I'm pretty damn proud of our team. Being eliminated on the THIRD tie-breaker shows we played well enough to win. Knowing we also beat the eventual champions meant we very well could have taken the whole damn thing. That said, it was kind of nice to get to go home Saturday and not play on Sunday (at least, until my usual league game!) What a crazy week. Hockey Wednesday night, Softball Thursday night, hockey Friday night, hockey twice Saturday, and hockey Sunday night. I'm pretty sore.

The ref in hockey pants/socks is a bit odd...

First time ever playing in a tournament, playing for my former rookie league team. First game of the weekend was 4-2. Not many shots against so the video is pretty short.
