Sarcasm

Sarcasm refers to the use of words that mean the opposite of what you really want to say, especially in order to insult someone, or to show irritation, or just to be funny. For example, saying "they're really on top of things" to describe a group of people who are very disorganized is using sarcasm. Most often, sarcasm is biting, and intended to cause pain. Irony can also refer to the use of words that mean the opposite of what you really want to say; the "they're really on top of things" statement about the very disorganized group of people can also be described as an ironic statement. But irony can also refer to a situation that is strange or funny because things happen in a way that seems to be the opposite of what you expected; for example, it is ironic if someone who was raised by professional musicians but who wanted a very different kind of life then fell in love with and married a professional musician.

Now look up pedantic.

Can you give me a quick player breakdown on Reinhardt?
The only thing I've noticed consistently that separates him is that he's a bulldog on the forecheck and loves to get to the net. Plus, the games we've seen him he's had a bit of scoring touch.

People who watch b sens are way more qualified to assess though

I still can’t believe the whining that took place after that hire. If only Staios had just thought to make the big brain move of checking on Green’s W-L on hockeydb as part of the exhaustive hiring process.

You can't believe Sens fans were weary of hiring a coach without much winning experience? Have you not been around the last ten years?

A lot of the missed entries are execution of that pass to the left boards.. the winger there fumbles the puck or makes a blind pass back to the point giving it away. The puck management still suffers from bad decisions.
Our puck entry on PP1 is better when it’s not Stutzle or Sanderson with the backhand pass to the LW.

Solid win, they didn't give up.
They should have win this on regulation but it's 2pts and Vancouver is not in our conference.

In this type of game you see that the team is young, the only danger with the Canucks is Hugues and first half of the game he had way too much space, they let him shoot as he was no danger.
Pinto was the only one who defend smartly against him, they really need to be smarter sometimes.

Merilainen was not that bad, but not good neither, just average. Again he is only 22. But we really need a solid back up this year.
Sure Ullmark is a gift for us.

Nah, Jensen and Chabot were fine. It was Kleven and JBD who kinda struggled. And Hamonic was his usual self. Can't wait for Zub to come back.
Kleven and Jensen struggled. JBD was solid, his 1 v 1 vs Garland along the boards was textbook and he timed up a couple big his.

Norris has trouble handling, he doesn't shoot enough making questionable puck management decisions. I would not mind replacing him with Pinto on PP1
Norris is overthinking it sometimes, he had a great chance on PP1 where the puck hit the post but he had a pause before shooting, he should not, he is a sniper.

3-11-2 when their opponent scores 1st :thumbd:

With the Ullmark we see recently i suspect we could do better.

Hughes was just too good. We have stu who is like that, but sanderson is different, more defensive, so it's a forward. Hughes plays massive minutes and every single time he touched the puck it was dangerous.

One of the, if the not the, best players I've seen on an opposing team this year. Scary

You just can’t even challenge him cause he’ll break your ankles and drive the net. Our forwards got cooked a few times. He’s just unreal.
