That Sega game singlehandedly brought more fans to the game than everything the NHL has done since. (Pay-per -view in some markets, taking the players out of the Olympics, offsides replay delays etc.)

Right. Is it possible the cops just freaked out and shot him? Yeah. Do we know that’s definitely what happened? No. They say he raised a gun at them while he was closing the garage door. Could they be lying to cover themselves? Sure. That’s what everyone here assumes. It’s still an assumption though, and outrage based…

I remember seeing him on “True Blood”, he was one of the wimpy vampires in that series, if I’m correct?

Sigh. Of COURSE they’re being misleading. As if there isn’t enough real, justified, awful homicide committed by police against minorities, they have to exaggerate and mislead the cases that aren’t?

I’m still waiting for the pre-game show to end.

Nah, she isn’t saying it’s racism. Apparently a woman using words like cunt to describe another woman (or in Monique’s case calling another black person a porch monkey) is equally as bad as racism. Kelly and her ilk just refuse to believe that racism is somehow worse. White conservative people just have be equally…

How can you say you don’t know anything about hockey with an observation like that? It’s like when the Seahawks were at the goal line in the Super Bowl and Belichick put Brady in at linebacker because why would he want a great player on the bench at a time like that?

He is one of the greatest scorers in history. They weren’t looking to score at the end of the game, they sent out a defensive line to hold the lead.

God, the NHL playoffs have been so much fun this year... especially so because the NBA playoffs have been so fucking boring...

Having been to the watch party in DC last weekend, it’s safe to say it actually feels like a hockey town right now. Everyone is excited for them, and as a fan for over twenty years, you know what? I’m all for the bandwagon fans right now. These first two games are what can change new viewers minds who go from curious…

Not sure if you’re intentionally misleading here or not but that gun was the same one he raised at the responding officers and refused to drop before being shot.

Police later found an unloaded gun in his back pocket, and determined his BAC had been nearly five times over the legal limit. 

My favorite part are the fans in the background who didn’t think that save was possible, assumed it was a goal, and are probably still celebrating somewhere.

A dude I know had the nerve to call that a “bad pass” and that’s why Vegas didn’t score. He’s probably reading these comments.

YOU’RE STILL WRONG, ASSHOLE!

Dear god, that’s most intelligent, observant hockey analysis I’ve ever seen on Deadspin! Granted, the bar is very low, but kudos and all the stars to you, sir and/or madam!

Caps looked much better this game (yes even 5v5) because they adjusted their game plan. It really can all be boiled down to a few things:

He has been having “Ambien episodes” every time he gets on tv for the last 15 years

Right? Like, how far out is he from an “Ambien episode?”

Bettman was just surprised that they still let Cherry on TV.

However. his follow up question on the Russia probe got nothing but side eye.
