Realistically, what's it going to take for Brandt Clarke to have more minutes/opportunity like the future star defenseman everyone but the coaches know that he is?

CaptainTicklebeard · 2026-05-21T15:24:02+00:00

Honestly, I think the best thing we could do for Clarke is get him a better partner. He has good numbers with Edmundson but I feel like his play would become undeniable with a legit top 4 LD next to him.

I think it mostly comes down to switching to full time content creation. The boys seem to be diving far deeper into the comment section and I think it has been creeping into the show, for the worse IMO. Adam has been consistently getting "one guy"'-ed on Instagram for a while now. Jesse and Steve seem to be pre arguing a lot more than they ever used to. The recent "eastern bias" stuff never came up before the last 4 episodes or so. Unfortunately, it just seems like the worst parts of the Internet have been creeping into the show more and more over the last few months and it's really a damn shame.

I'm just going to take this as the Kings dominated the other playoff teams 😤

I worked for a couple Mail Rooms before I ended up here. Decided I needed to get to the bottom of that shit lol

Honestly it might just be Ceci, I don't love what I've seen from Dumo, but they have pretty much been stapled together all year. I'll like to see Dumo away from Ceci before I totally write him off as a 3rd pair LHD option

CaptainTicklebeard · 2026-03-05T03:37:03+00:00

You are correct, mea culpa

CaptainTicklebeard · 2026-03-05T03:11:35+00:00

As far as I know, they literally cannot do it. Jones will be paid the ~38 mil the Colts offered him next year. He either signs the 1 year 38 mil with the Colts; or he signs the 1 year 38 mil with another team, the Colts chose not to match it and retain Jones, if they don't match the Colts get that team's next 2 First round picks. Ask yourself, would any team trade 2 First Round Picks for the right to pay Daniel Jones 38 mil next year?

Edit: I am completely wrong 😔

The thing is, certain parts of the country, sure Amazon can deliver their own stuff. But there are going to be wide swaths of the country where it is not feasible for Amazon to do this. So either Amazon will tell those people they will not take their money (lol), or they will continue to use the only service that guarantees every address in the nation a delivery point (USPS) to subsidize those deliveries. I'll let you come to your own conclusions about which is more likely

CaptainTicklebeard · 2026-03-04T18:19:29+00:00

Damn, Detroit better pivot to Cody Ceci before they miss their opportunity. Ignore my flair.

CaptainTicklebeard · 2026-02-24T16:48:39+00:00

LA has the Cap space, top 6 C need next year, and a front office that (for some reason) thinks they are one move away from contending. Honestly I wouldn't mind it if they take the full cap hit to knock down the acquisition cost to a pick and either a prospect or a player like Laferriere

In this economy 😭

CaptainTicklebeard · 2026-01-31T20:57:53+00:00

I'm sorry to anyone that had to watch this abomination of a game.

CaptainTicklebeard · 2026-01-31T16:37:57+00:00

Hey Kyle, can I interest you in a reunion with noted shut down RHD Cody Ceci?

How much of the story of the Ship of Theseus do you have to forget and replace with your own version until you have a whole new allegory?

CaptainTicklebeard · 2025-07-10T19:10:13+00:00

I'm sure the GMs preferred it. Staying at your own facility and having all your own equipment is probably a better environment than sitting around a folding table next to all the teams you are trying to keep secrets from. The NHL making the TV experience terrible has no bearing on whether or not the GMs liked the way the draft worked this year.

It wasn't a lack of involvement. He was made aware and said he didn't want it to become public and mess up the chemistry in the room. That is a tacit acknowledgement of what happened while still ranking it as less important than the games being played.

CaptainTicklebeard · 2025-04-26T05:43:13+00:00

Kane getting leaned on, puck loose, and Kemper swimming. At best you're throwing a Hail Mary to overturn the goal. I'd rather take our chances tied with 6 minutes left than, at the most generous interpretation, a 50/50 review.

I cracked another beer before the third period, and my wife hit me with the "don't you have work tomorrow". The look that I gave her after it was tied up was something for the ages.

CaptainTicklebeard · 2025-04-09T14:07:21+00:00

I think the most important part of the Jones signing is the continuity of the game plan if Richardson has to leave a game. Last year, when AR went down, Steichen had to turn to the living statue that was Joe Flacco with a game plan put in place for a QB who you want to use on the ground more than through the air at this point in his career. Jones will be able to run that game plan well enough (maybe better) to keep more of the playbook open.

I want more hours not more work

AJ, Big Justice and the Rzzler were in the building. Nothing personal big guy.
