@coolcanuckNYC@jaredsmithbets It is but a little overstated. The players still pay taxes in the jurisdictions where their games are played. Yes Florida will have their home games and several in Tampa. But players in Toronto, for example, make quite a bit more in local endorsement opportunities.
@Rasterblath@flamillennial@PeteBlackburn Empty arenas would be an anomaly though and not the norm. The NHL’s total attendance is better than the NBA’s over the last 10 years. The only reason its average attendance isn’t better is because the size of the rink where teams play in the same arena as basketball.
@montrealMark1@JeffVeillette I didn’t see any momentum but rather poor goal tending to start for Buffalo. 3 goals on 3 shots is not momentum, that’s a gift from the other team. Buffalo seemed to control everything else and eventually the game.
@Seymour_from_GP@Sportsnet@kbieksa3 I would argue they look like the same team that has always had defense and goaltending issues. You can only outscore your liabilities so much. And on top of that, McDavid shows zero interest in back checking.
@Derek_chats@JeffVeillette That was Jeff’s point. They struggled to get past one of the weakest teams in last year’s playoffs - hence the Leafs were not that strong.
@ZephyraByte@Tech_girlll Agree. If just writing code, what’s the issue? Now if you need Pro Tools, Premiere, Final Cut, etc - then I would say go with the Pro models.
@arvidkahl Exactly, what did we all think AI trained on? In fairness, I do notice AI does really well with frameworks with opinionated conventions, ie Rails, Laravel, Django.
@jodleboy@dhh Good point here. It’s happening in places in like California too. When governments want to punish people for being successful, those successful people typically pick up and leave.
@JeffVeillette Jeff is correct here. Matthews and the Leafs biggest issues are two fold - Berube’s coaching style doesn’t work here as they spend more time in the defensive zone than they ever have in Matthews’ tenure and the team still fails at getting puck movers on the back end.
