1226He’s big, he’s bad, they call him Zibanejad. 5 goals tonight. 38 on the year. Never thought he’d get this good.
Always wanted the Blues to trade for him. Fast, great shot......but a decent number of injuries over the years.BillP. wrote: Thu Mar 05, 2020 8:55 pm He’s big, he’s bad, they call him Zibanejad. 5 goals tonight. 38 on the year. Never thought he’d get this good.
Sensing of that type would require accuracy in the millimeter range. I'd like to see evidence that any such sensing technology exists today. If you've got it, T.C., hold out for more money.T.C. wrote: Thu Mar 05, 2020 11:09 amhaving a sensor inside the puck would enable them to instantly determine when a puck crossed a blue line or goal line. real-time stats would be a nice-to-have, but this to me is the primary reason they'd introduce something like that. easy to place something under the ice like an "invisible fence" for a dog, where you can immediately tell the puck crossed the line.
Once game in to the playoffs and every owner (in the playoffs) are going to be calling for the puck to go away. This could just be another fox trax gimmick.JMC-STL wrote: Fri Mar 06, 2020 4:20 amSensing of that type would require accuracy in the millimeter range.

Really, I mean they claim they did extensive testing but how do you not ask for the opinion of the stars of the game like Crosby, McDavid, etc. I mean go to the source but it sounds like they didn't.NHLTIM wrote: Fri Mar 06, 2020 7:41 am I believe Crosby is on record stating that the puck feels very different on the ice. This is the NHL though so nothing should be surprising

Doubly so because Lindbohm is a blast from the past too.Dave's a mess wrote: Fri Mar 06, 2020 9:10 amWow, that's a blast from the past.

No. They'll lose at minimum 11 games for sure. They play:Dave's a mess wrote: Fri Mar 06, 2020 9:58 am The Red Wings are currently on pace to end up with 41-42 points. They're at 35 right now. They have the most difficult remaining schedule in the League. Do they get out of the 30s in their last 14 games?

That's ridiculous in today's parity driven, 3 point salary cap league. Easily one of the worst teams of all time.Dave's a mess wrote: Fri Mar 06, 2020 9:58 am The Red Wings are currently on pace to end up with 41-42 points. They're at 35 right now.

At one point, Hakanpaa and Edmundson were the future for the Blues blueline.Oates2Hullie450 wrote: Fri Mar 06, 2020 6:03 am Anyone see Jani Hakanpaa made his NHL debut with Anaheim tonight?

From the reporting I've heard the league has already had the pucks in play for games this year and nobody complained about them. Could be psychological.NHLTIM wrote: Fri Mar 06, 2020 7:41 am I believe Crosby is on record stating that the puck feels very different on the ice.
