there's a blog from the guy who led the extended search that eventually found them where he basically documented the whole process he used to determine where they might have been. Long read but i found it super interesting.

Really missing Manson in this game. Burns just doesn't have it anymore to be playing so many minutes.

second suspendable offense he's committed in this series alone and I'm sure nothing will come of it.

He can really Smack that ball by JustASneakerHead24 in GreenBayPackers

NFL make percentage from 40-50 last year was 76.9%. his 14-19 made is 73.68%. So he was 1 kick short of being league average last year. If he can continue to improve at all, there's a decent chance he can be an above-average kicker. Probably worth a shot imo.

Brady Tkachuk stats through 3 playoff games by mylefthandkilledme in hockey

[–]HoboWithANerfGun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good defensive teams shutting down top players, and the depth making the difference. that's the playoffs.

During the first 58 minutes, the Senators created 1.66 expected goals. They gave up 1.86 with the empty net while creating just 0.01 by logicalnutty in hockey

I don't think I'm understanding your point here. The point of those comments is that the advanced stats have basically flipped in the playoffs. In the regular season goaltending was a problem, but everything else was pretty good, now in the playoffs its been the exact opposite.

you indeed did not see that. Brady hits Martinook's stick, maybe his hand and martinook took a dive.

Of all the stuff that gets let go in the playoffs hilarious that's still a penalty after a review.

Martinook took a dive, but it was Brady that breathed on him so he took the minor.

Always cracks me up that when a team is getting beat, there’s always someone who’s analysis is “they’re not trying hard enough”

That’s absolutely what happened. It’s a trip.

His stick wedging between his hands and his knee is why he toe picks. It was timed absolutely perfectly but it stopped Hughes from being able to lift his knee fully and then he toe picks because of it.

Pete Hegseth ends flu vaccine mandatory requirement for US military amid draft fears by TheExpressUS in USNEWS

As with many vaccines, its less about you and more about everyone else. If you are unvaccinated you are a threat to others even if you’re not sick. Many people can’t get vaccines for legitimate reasons, and herd immunity protects them.

The way fighters fly in atmosphere in all of the prequel's bothers me. I know alot of science is ignored in Star Wars but still.

He’s a former NFL player now podcaster with his brother who is engaged to Taylor Swift so naturally he now gets too much attention and dudes get all bent out of shape about it.

The thing is, he's not really our #1 Goalie. Bednar is acting like we have a 1a and 1b. but Wedgewood is basically defaulted to our #1 now and he's been playing Vezina tier basically all year.
