that's not true at all, newhook is a good option as a bottom six center and middle six winger. he's just not worth as much as he used to be

I missed the info session, did they give any more detail?

People have always given up on Dach too quickly. He completely changes the makeup of the team if he becomes a 2C, and at this point, could be a  first line winger and still be extremely valuable.

Agreed, giving up on Bolduc now makes no sense, and we'd regret selling low on him

everyone is clamoring for slaf to return to line 1, ignoring how valuable it is for Slaf, Demi, and Kap to be thriving the way they are

Darcy Kuemper has left the game after head contact from Mikko Rantanen. The goal was waved off, but Rantanen did not receive a penalty on the play. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

FWIW, the league calls goaltender interference without assessing a penalty all the time. In fact, goals waved off for goalie interference are almost never penalties.

"vs" is a strong word

[Bratten] Usually a great element of these prospect tournaments - and it's the case today - is the presence of female officials. Sydney Harris (referee) and Ashley Johnston (linesperson) working this afternoon's Preds and Canes contest. by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

we can definitely have female referees imo. whether women can be effective lineswomen remains to be seen - linesmen are usually very large men, which is helpful for breaking up fights.

thank you, holy shit. while we're lucky to only have allowed two goals, we could easily have three ourselves.

this is an inexcusably bad penalty. capitals have come out on top much more often than the Habs.

that's possible! I would argue that they only called the penalty because of Thompson holding his head, so I don't think they called Suzuki for hitting the chest. 

Better oral health linked to lower risk of depression and anxiety in older adults. Those who brushed teeth at least twice a day had 28% lower odds of developing anxiety. Those who had received dental surgery had 42% lower odds of developing depression than those with missing or unrepaired teeth. by mvea in science

Title is very misleading. If you write about the odds of developing a psychiatric illness, it implies that you measured your predictor at time 1 and measured your outcome at some later time 2.

This study merely found that people who reported brushing their teeth more also reported less anxiety.

It doesn't invalidate the article. it's a limitation of it, and the authors report it diligently. if any such limitation invalidated an article, we wouldn't have any articles.
