Seeing Crosby and Ovechkin move into this state of mutual respect is awesome l. So many intense battles over the years with the highest stakes. I miss that intensity, as it was the greatest NHL rivalry of all time, but also seeing them acknowledge each others work now is cool.

It's actually not far off! The probability of winning either lottery, or both, with a 25% chance in each would be 43.75%

If the Penguins finish last in the next two seasons they’d have a 25% chance at McKenna and DuPont which is basically 50% do not argue with me I teach statistics to ants

I wrote a lot of words and put together 10+ minutes of video on Quinn Beauchesne, probably my favorite player Dubas selected outside of the first round. Stop by, check it out, and subscribe. Peyton Kettles is next.

National Hockey media posting videos where they salivate like hyenas at the idea of Sidney Crosby being traded. Less than a week from his last and most recent public statement about it. I mean at what point do we just call it what it is; disrespectful to one of the games best ambassadors.

Got picks from my daughters summer camp today. She went through a major childhood rite of passage: the giant parachute in the gym. Nothing better as a kid. What a day for her.
