Around The League - 2025 Playoffs

Caps were outhit 44-31 and they had to make 32 blocked shots. So similar to game 5 against Habs. Let them think they can win by playing rope-a dope. They will be done soon.
 
Cool. So much better without the S.
Without the S the name stops being a noun and starts being an adjective.

The Utah Mammoth...what? Mammoth Failures? Mammoth Undertaking? Mammoth Clusterfuck?

Same issue I have with Minnesota Wild. Wild what? Wild flowers? Wild Rice?

Collective nouns, in addition to being dumb, come off as bush league. Indoor soccer teams and WNBA teams use collective nouns for team names, not real pro sports.

Besides which, mammoths were herd animals. They didn't wander around alone.
 
I can see the Isles presser now...

"The answers are in da room!"
"Trades are hard"
"You want a friend, get a dog"
"I've hired JJ Daigneault as an assistant coach because he knows how to throw f-bombs"
