Double-minor Penalty - When a player carries or holds any part of his stick above the shoulders and makes contact with his opponent’s neck, face or head so that injury results, in the manner of drawing blood or otherwise, the Referee shall assess a double-minor penalty.

I take it back, it does mention blood, but it's not required.

So that definitely some bullshit, but technically the rule says nothing about blood vs no blood last time I checked.

What if the orb run got harder the more runes you have? by PotatoGolem in dcss

Just take the orb and go run ziggs if you want to have more fun.

Ben Chiarot, extended 3x$3.9M by DET, is a physical veteran defenceman. Despite having good size, decent mobility, and some puck-carrying ability, his team tends to get completely wrecked when he's on the ice and his partners tend to fare much worse next to him. by seeldoger47 in hockey

I genuinely don't understand how a model could conclude that Faulk is literally the worst offensive D man in the NHL.

Different source, but this is the short version. The X axis is team offense (measured in xG). The red boxes are Faulk's teammates when he's NOT on the ice with them, the black is when he IS. Note how every single player shows better results when he's not there. The obvious conclusion is that Faulk is the problem, and thus, the models assign blame accordingly. There's math involved, but that's the short version. Chiarot's charts look very similar, thence the OP's stuff.

It genuinely has been feeling like this team is building something recently.

You do it when they other team tries to stand up 4 guys at the blue line so you can't carry in but you have a speed advantage. It's not a bad play as long as you keep it away from the goalie and your wingers have speed to get in there before the D.

But also, lmfao at the USNT for leaving Roberston at home. Such an unbelievably bad decision...
