Goal GIFs are so dope! 😮💨
🗣️ FYI - goal GIFs are not integrated into the bot yet, but I will try to manually tweet them as they are generated.

Hoping this fixes some of the crashes I was seeing.
There was a major bug where the game didn't go live at the right time and we were getting throttled by the NHL API (getting HTTP 429 response codes).

@sammich-blt.bsky.social someone mentioned to me that they noticed NST xG data was off (vs other sites) for the first bit of the season.
Is this just a sample size issue or have you heard other reports of this? Here is the chart they put together of NST vs EH vs MP.

Orlov was definitely in a slightly vulnerable position here, but the hit only looks bad because he was already falling to the ice.

I hope he does well in Seattle. I have no idea what Drury is doing. My goodness.
🗣️ WELCOME TO THE DEEP: KAAPO KAKKO!
We've acquired forward Kaapo Kakko from the New York Rangers in exchange for defenseman Will Borgen, a 3rd round pick and a 6th round pick in the 2025 #NHLDraft.

@marcoarment.bsky.social @liss.bsky.social @siracusa.bsky.social didn't see an official ATP account but thought you guys might find this hilarious, BUT also a case for how important the understanding of order notification summaries need to be.
