just because you object to there being more than a single stat to describe a particular event does not mean that those additional stats do not exist.Again with the "chances". You need to stop reading analytics that only show you what "coulda, shoulda, woulda" happened. You score a goal or you don't score a goal. That's it. That's the stat.
I’m pretending it isn’t or you’re pretending it is? It’s bad karma. We may only have one game left this year. Let’s do this right.No one’s forcing you to read this thread. If you want to pretend the season isn’t over, feel free to start your GDT or stick to the playoff thread and indulge that fantasy in there.
And then I’ll see you back here a couple of days from now.

your approach of complete emotional detachment, going all the way back to last season, seems very much justified and validated.Karma doesn’t exist.
And this season isn’t over in the same way a team who’s played like shit for 59 minutes and is down by three goals with a minute left technically hasn’t lost the game yet.
If you want to play pretend that they’re coming back, more power to you. There’s plenty of space for you to do that. I’d rather face reality and talk about what comes next.
I'm sorry but the fuck it doesn'tKarma doesn’t exist.
Why not just do that in another existing thread?Karma doesn’t exist.

Enjoy similar results then. Nylander is a slick perimeter player. If you want to get tougher you would at least want a guy that can score.
If not Wilson or someone like him and a first in a good draft year what do you think you'll get for him? Remember that most GMs have an opinion worse than mine on physically challenged players.
I just played with it, and the first result was......................................Could you imagine if Washington got Bedard? Just played with that simulator and they won on it. That would royally suck.

Sharks, sens.I honestly don’t think there is any way to “get better”, or any quick fix for this team.
We’re in full “tear it down and rebuild” territory. Which I acknowledge is unprecedented when talking about a team coming off back-to-back 110+ point/top-5 finishes.
But it’s also unprecedented for a team that’s been as good for as long as these guys have been in the regular season to be so reliably futile in the playoffs during the same period of time. And I don’t see any reason to be optimistic that it’ll change at this point.
Sharks, sens.
I guess I can’t think of a good reason.Why not in this thread?
