@SamAMcKee @FAN590 Should we be doom and gloom over missing the playoffs?

There are recent examples of Cup champs who missed the playoffs shortly before winning.

VGK, STL, TB, WSH each had a stretch of playoff failures, missed, then won within 3-4 seasons. VGK & STL won the season after missing.

@nhl, why did Perry get an assist on the Draisaitl goal? Draisaitl passed it to RNH who passed back for the goal. Perry hadn't touched the puck for 7 seconds and 2 zones prior.

Who does Kyper see (hear about) as the next Bennett, ie a distressed asset ready to flourish? Kyper would beat the drum for him, Ritchie & Josh Anderson, but who's the next crop who's off the radar? Crouse?

@haralabob Aren't you a stats guy?

@SamAMcKee @FAN590 @Sportsnet After last night's game, do you have thoughts on the NHL/Leafs returning to white jerseys at home à la Kyper's era?

Injecting a variety of colors into SBA might break up the monotonous, Blue vs random White team home fan experience.

@FAN590 @SamAMcKee @RealKyper @jtbourne @Sportsnet Listening to Kyper yesterday was akin to hearing your elected representative spew Kremlin disinformation.

@BizNasty2point0 All comes full circle

@chamath Ah, So that's how terrorists and pathogenic viruses know when to strike...

[Danny Dykstra @DannyDykstra]

@TrueAnonPod What post office are you going to that is flying the Stars and Bars??

[Danny Dykstra @DannyDykstra]

@ryanlcooper @LeftAnchor Also, regarding slow driving.

In Finland, speeding tickets are commensurate to your income.

There are stories of businessmen/professional athletes paying well north of 100,000€ for a speeding infraction.

@ryanlcooper @LeftAnchor Not sure if you had a chance to check out the library in Helsinki.

Off the top of my head it had:
3D printers
Sewing machines
Musical instruments, practice rooms, recording equipment
Art studios
Game systems (PS5s and XBoxes)
Oh and books

All for public consumption

@kevinwildes Nothing less exciting than watching guys jack up threes that don't stand a chance...

[Danny Dykstra @DannyDykstra]

@haralabob Did they even mention it on the broadcast?

[Danny Dykstra @DannyDykstra]

@JhanHky Did that translate onto the score sheet for last year vs this year?

Lightning Series
2022 7 Games
Matthews 4G 5A
Marner 2G 6A

2023 6 Games
Matthews 5G 4A
Marner 2G 9A

In the 2022 series vs TB, 34 & 16 got over 1/3rd of their points (6 of 17) in game 1. Then dropped off.

[Danny Dykstra @DannyDykstra]

@JhanHky Fancy stats aside.

Bottom six/bottom pairing D have outscored Panthers in 2 of 3 games while the top 6 have been caved in 8 to 2 in scoring over 3 games.

[Danny Dykstra @DannyDykstra]

@JhanHky Game 1:
FLA Top 6 + Top 4 D
4G
TOR Top 6 + Top 4 D
1G

FLA Bot 6
0 pts
TOR Bot 6
1G

Game 2:
FLA Top 6 + Top 4D
2G
TOR Top 6 + Top 4D
PP goal

FLA Bot 6
1 G
TOR Bot 6
1G

Game 3;
FLA Top 6 + Top 4D
2G
TOR Top 6 + Top 4D
0G

FLA Bot 6
1 G
TOR Bot 6
2G

[Danny Dykstra @DannyDykstra]

@JhanHky I agree, but is the bottom 5/6 why they are losing in this instance?

[Danny Dykstra @DannyDykstra]

@JDBunkis @SamAMcKee Kämpf playing out of his mind for next year's contract. (Which won't be with the Leafs because no one outside the big 3/4 is allowed to make more than league minimum)
