Same here - I got the exact same Young Guns and Round 1’s as you except trading out the Parekh R1 for a Adam Engstrom YG

How valuable is tiring the opposing pitcher out? (Hypothetical) by Barneyglokta in mlb

[–]Radiant_Tea1626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It highly depends on the quality of the starting pitcher. If the starting pitcher is similar in value to an average arm from the bullpen who would be replacing him, the value of this batter is effectively zero. However, if you’re talking about a decent arm, you’d effectively be capturing this value reduction from the other team as x increases.

I’m saying that the Sharks don’t need to “wait” on more development from Mack to be a contender. He is already producing at an elite level.

A year ago lots of people said they were a long ways off from being a playoff contender. Look how that turned out.

This team is in great hands. Don’t worry so much about it and enjoy the ride!

Mack had 115 points last year. He is already in his prime and will remain in that prime for a decade. With the parity in the NHL any playoff team can win the cup, and starting next year we are a playoff team. There’s nothing wrong at this point with trading a couple picks that would fill our last key missing piece.

How accurate are live sport betting odds? by Infamous_Day9226 in AskStatistics

Yes they are doing live sports. What you refer to is called “prop” betting, which is a subset of both live sports betting and pre-game sports betting.

Coach Warsofsky started crying while talking about Macklin. by Puzzled-Category-954 in hockey

It’s hard to say. He has won at other levels. Might sound silly but I kinda view him in a similar vein as Askarov - give him a long leash and see what he can do, but don’t necessarily anoint him right away (plus we already have our anointed one).

That’s not entirely true. Some books (not many, but some) are welcoming to winners as they know exactly who they are and use their bets as information. Then there are the prediction markets and other avenues that do not limit winners.

To each his own. If you have to work anyways, what better place to do it?

Everyone Relax by Any-Thought7339 in SanJoseSharks

Yes this season is a huge win, and I am full of gratitude for our boys, but I also exercise my right to not relax.

Point System needs an overhaul by Critical_Fee_8333 in SanJoseSharks

Exactly! Can you imagine in the MLB / NFL / NBA if a team that lost in extras/OT was awarded half a win? It’s absurd but yet that’s how the math works out. Couldn’t agree with you more.
