"We must take accountability" he says, while failing to even acknowledge having Aliu buried in the ECHL and derailing his career. And the recent physical abuse as noted above. Who doesn't love statements drafted by lawyers? It's an art, really.
At least McKenzie cropped out the header with the case number so you can't tell that his lawyer typed it. This is just him covering his ass for the future lawsuit.
@GraveDigger I saw your tweet about Scheifele getting -14 in your league, genuinely curious how that’s possible? I have him and he was +15 haha
The NHL's game lineup today? Montreal vs New Jersey. That's it. That's the full schedule. I realize it's American Thanksgiving, but this has been happening all season. 13 games on one day, then two games the next day. Fire the scheduler
Sportsnet's Eric Francis pulling out the air quotes around "victims" when talking about how the target of Bill Peters' racial slurs wasn't mentioned. This is a very bad look
Okay, so my league has really stupid rules where players get more points taken away from penalties and hits. You get six points for a goal & one point for every shot on goal. He got 11 points from those alone. However, you get TWO points taken away for every penalty minute (he had 12, so -24) and he lost another point from having a hit. This has been happening to me a lot because I didn't read the rules and had no idea penalties killed you this much.
It's so stupid because you can't control it. I have gotten screwed by this a few times because if a player has one off night it sinks your entire week. I've also had to scour the waiver wire a bunch because Crosby & Tarasenko are hurt & the middle six guys are total crapshoots with these rules. You also get a five point bonus for power play points and I feel like my opponent strikes gold with that every week.
Jesus who thought that was a good idea haha. Thanks though, that explains a lot. Losing points for hits is wild
