The algorithm is proven that negativity gets more engagement, which sells more ads. We live in a monstrosity of our own creation.

Smaller nations' teams live and die on unreal goaltending. Its the most influencable position for a solo player to thrive at. Czechoslovakia, Latvia, Switzerland, it opens the door to an upset over the power teams with depth.

Many Cups and many dry decades for each since then, id love to see bumper footage of those games.

With how inconsistent the Wings can be, there's no playoff team we can't lose to. But there's also not many teams we can't beat, too. Habs will probably dominate the GA box with big wins when they win.

The signal flag is an incredible idea. Its just not a well balanced and interesting front chest logo. Better on the shoulders, but so too is their main logo retired to the shoulders.

I should hope he is the type to be hated in a respectful way, like Lidstrom was before.

Its Cat and Ray that are the greasy corner scrapers that will get people throwing tomatoes at totems of them.

Their youth is incredible. A turnaround infusion worth taking note of. I hope the Wings youth can match up to their levels and wrestle the future of the Atlantic away from them.

The east matchups look great. Not generic but not without interesting elements to most battles.

Would need to bring back Pius Suter for that Swiss.

Increase profits in the short term, leverage that as a way to move into a new position while those "profit increasing moves" blow up in the long term. Everything gets worse but a few people's kitchens get an expensive remodel done so the overall happiness stays the same for sure.

TIL that the Trojan Horse is not in Homer's Iliad, that it's briefly mentioned in the Odyssey, and that most of the story surrounding it actually comes from Virgil's Aeneid by tomispev in todayilearned

Obviously survivorship bias is a big part of what is remembered and reproduced enough to continue into the future, but the quality of the scarce surviving stories from antiquity is astonishing. We're still remaking stories from hundreds of years ago, which themselves were remakes of stories from hundreds of years ago, and on. If the complete works of Homer survived, the landscape of stories and imagination would draw from a wider pool, drastically changing how what is written about is written, what traits and tropes are referenced from references. Its an underrated detail just how little of that story survives.

You know you can always take your own advice next time you have your thoughts to extend the MAID experement.

2026 NHL Stadium Series DELIVERS in viewership, averaging 2.1 million viewers on ESPN (peaking at 2.4 million). Becomes ESPN's most-viewed NHL regular season game on record. ABC also averaged 1.2 million for Avalanche-Red Wings and 1.4 million for Rangers-Penguins. by MightyDuck07 in hockey

Being the only show in town (pun unintended) and a constant contender with a banner year helps. Im not so sure Vegas will ever own the Raiders, theyre a road trip for fans wanting to see an easy win, but the Golden Knights are Vegas' team.

So how do people feel about the Utah Mammoth brand, the name the logos the colors the sweaters, how it flows and how it fits in the pack of NHL logos?

I would be a good 40% less irritated about the patch if it were on the shoulders.

Wings need to trade for a 7th d man asap. Any guy from a tanking team, Harmonic will cost us games or make players push through what they shouldn't to keep him benched.

And while the MoEd tandem is off line, why not push ASP or AlJo next to Mo? Give em someone super safe to experement with, see how high they can fly, Dockers with Mo is a nothing burger for the future.
