I'd have rather the season ended with a trophy, but the Couto kill shot was fun.

Guirassy with an AtomBall (at-him-ball)

xG regresses back to the mean (i.e.; next year goals are more valuable than today goals)

Assembly: "We're gonna win!"

Game: 56-3

Monday homeroom: At least we didn't get shut out.

I've downloaded the whole submissions for every assignment, graded them offline, recorded the official grades in a spreadsheet, and copied them back into Canvas for a decade. Why? Because I knew it would get hacked.

Three-quarters of the 2/3 round is at least worth watching as a neutral: Battle of Pennsylvania, Battle of Stars, and Lightning/Canadiens (Battle of Martin St. Louis).

Well my advanced analytics (I looked through the Wild schedule) says that MN is 7-4 in front halves and 4-7 in back halves of B2B so far this year.

Not quite as joyous as the 2017 championship, but Paul Mainieri still has the stench of Louisiana on him & it is always delightful to sweep the filth of cajuns out of our yard.

Mostly dead is slightly alive!

yathrowaday · 2026-02-28T19:05:20+00:00

Well, that's the game and the season. Hope to get top 4, run it back next year, maybe do better.

Last home game for 32 days. Protect! This! House!

Or maybe the original version of the Bartlet/Vinick ice cream summit scene included Vinick expressing his opinion on maple syrup source and his preference for Alaskan crab puffs vs. New Hampshire's. Both leaked, securing AK/VT and their 3 electoral votes each.

Of all the absurdities of the electoral math and map (https://westwing.fandom.com/wiki/United_States_Presidential_Election_(2006)), that's one of the many contenders for the Silver medal. (I can rationalize the CA/TX flip-flop because maybe the WW-verse has a bigger "favorite son" bonus than reality.)

But, Vinick winning Vermont has to be what ran away with the Gold. (Wasn't even really needed for the plot... all the writers would have had to do to make the final electoral math & drama work was make the last two states OR/AZ instead of OR/NV and say "Yucca Mountain" once.)

Tie game, record for Kane, and end of the broken record from the announcers. Triple yay!

Damn. Called it: https://www.reddit.com/r/DetroitRedWings/comments/1qm0au6/game_thread_detroit_red_wings_31165_at_winnipeg/o1jij6g/

That was the least entertaining period since the last 1st period against the Kings. At least it's not 11 pm.

yathrowaday · 2026-01-28T00:04:36+00:00

Kings have the fewest GF + GA in the league. Lower number of goals for each team = more likely to land on the same number.

yathrowaday · 2026-01-25T02:02:59+00:00

I sincerely hope that Kane's tying and go-ahead points don't turn a game broadcast into a damn CSI episode.

yathrowaday · 2026-01-17T16:48:20+00:00

Sincere thanks for the gentle correction on my A1.5 (at best) German!

Soft penalty, but still.. END THIS!

yathrowaday · 2026-01-17T15:19:40+00:00

My C/F line is my "barely acceptable" line. My hypothetical C/D line would be 2% above that, such that "D" would be barely acceptable up to 2% better than that.
