Not at all. But I can see Wilson is a negative corsi player who doesn’t score and takes way too many penalties. He’s a dinosaur in the nhl who’s on his way out of the league.

Its five years and the draft three months ago and they’ve basically graduated one player to their NHL team.

Wow, you made a pedantic non-relevant argument, completely misread a chart, then claimed your misinterpretation of said chart proved I was ignorant.

Diana, if you’re gonna write for Deadspin, you’ve got to follow the style guide.

Since both those teams have been to the Stanley Cup Finals in this century, which the Capitals have not, and Carolina even won a Cup in 2006... yes, better to be them.

They have drafted and developed exactly three players who have played a seasons’ worth of NHL games in the last six years. (2011 draft to now).

Yes, a joke. As in: The Washington Capitals have a 40-44 (5-8 in 13 playoff series) record in the playoffs since the lockout, but continue to think they have a great franchise because of their regular season results. Ha!

No, not really. Maybe by the bandwagon fans in DC, but around the NHL he was known as one of the hardliners pressing for a lockout and kind of a joke, raising banners for “regular season points” and having a pretty hilariously badly run franchise.

Also, the division rival Philadelphia Flyers own their own building, which was built with basically no taxpayer funding.

Stick to Sports!

You don’t have to go to “statement against interest” exception. It’s the admission of a party opponent, which is by definition “non-hearsay”

The police can very easily subpoena his phone records and show they came from his phone.

You’re just flat wrong.

Scare her into not testifying.
Come out swinging to put her on the defensive, then offer six figures of booster money to walk away with a gag order.

On what grounds?

“You” did nothing. And “they”didn’t trade Nimmo.

+ Absolutely Nothing.

Goddamn that’s good.

So you didn’t read the first half of the article about the lawyer who claims not to remember cases? The exact think I proposed. Good job!

You don’t read good. The article was not a hypothetical, they were specific real world experiences he had. Various situations where lawyers lie all the time. And the specific press instance was about answering a reporter’s question.

Its not evidenvce. At best, it’s double hearsay. (Manziel->Lawyer->Reporter->Court)
