I appreciate that you put an entire section for his dog in there. What a cutie. And Nail clearly dotes on her.

Apparently...

World Cup of Hockey odds from @BodogCA:
CAN - 10/11
RUS - 9/2
SWE - 5/1
USA - 13/2
FIN - 14/1
North America - 16/1
CZE - 22/1
Europe - 33/1


I know this is probably true, but I feel weirdly insulted. Despite this being a money making scheme I still hope team Europe will do well. :/

CZE - 22/1

Aw. :( The odds were never going to be good, but I still think this is at least 50% because of Hertl and Krejci being out.

More potential names which are about as exciting as you'd expect:

Las Vegas Desert Knights
Las Vegas Golden Knights
Las Vegas Silver Knights
Las Vegas Sand Knights

From this article: http://deadspin.com/the-las-vegas-nhl-team-is-going-to-choose-some-bland-as-1785898153

... sand knights?

Eh, I think it's Canada then Sweden, then a grab bag. Team NA is probably a bit underrated and USA overrated.

Half of me believes the owner is just trolling now and is using this all as a smokescreen for the perfectly reasonable name he secretly has waiting in the wings. The other half of me is resigned to having the fucking Sand Knights in my division.

I actually like Desert Knights, if we have to stick with the Knights idea. I wish they'd drop it, though.

Honestly, I'd rather have NA's defense than USA's. Their goaltending is quite a bit weaker, but overall their team is probably better.

/unpopular opinion time: I think Sweden looks better than Canada, especially on the blueline. Pretty much all of those D-men are serviceable number 1 guys.

NA

His dad's birthday is 4/3/1950 according to his Instagram (he has a couple of brothers and a sister who are all older than he is, he's the baby of the family!) so probably his mom's birthday? Which is super cute.

Yeah, Sweden's forwards aren't as good, but their goaltending and defense are likely better. And if Price isn't 100%, that becomes a big, big question mark, whereas Lundqvist is healthy.

I kind of like Sand Knights. It's ridiculous, but it makes me think of Dune, and I like Dune.

NA

I think it's the best of a bunch of bad options, if they're really determined to go in that direction.

NA

ME TOO...it was all those pics with the adorable kids that did me in

Do any of the Bruins nonnies know if he has a good chance of making the team this year/or are they expecting him to be sent to Providence?

Re: Random Hockey Stuff

(Anonymous) 2016-08-29 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I think he'll probably be in Providence, but the Bruins defense is god awful so you never know. He might get a chance if one of our overpaid elderly top pair D gets hurt 😂
