I slept through the Italy game but did watch the Germany game, and they look scarily good at times, but they do get caught out on the counter at times but a overall a very good start from them

When I saw them at the euros they was their downfall then too! Nice to see nothings changed

there’s something so important, about that win yesterday. not only did we beat a team that has stanley cup aspirations, which has two of the best players in the world on their team (which we shut down), overall it was a stunning performance from every single player on the ice. from jt miller’s five points, to boeser’s four goals, to demko’s .955 save percentage with the flu to the introduction of hughes as the captain in a stunning fashion, across the board it was a great night not only for the team, but for the fans 

(full tactico thoughts below the cut)

what we saw last night was a full team effort, not just the top 6 forwards and top 2 defensive pairings clicking. everyone across the line up was pulling their weight and clicking into place last night. because of injuries, illness, and our salary cap situation, we ended up playing with a player less, and with 11 forwards and 6 defensemen. this meant that the bottom 3 wingers especially needed to play more then they usually would, against the tough opponent of the most complete oilers team they have ever iced since they drafted mcdavid. and the bottom five did exceptionally well in the positions they put themselves in!! 

lafferty, for being a new acquisition, knew exactly what he was doing. he positioned himself well, especially during the pk, right near the goal and was always in a good place to either pass or get the puck within shooting range of the net. he is such a smart player, drawing that penalty in the third is absolute genius and he just knows where to move within his line and how to create a good pass. i think hoglander worked well with him, as he made some nice little plays especially behind the edmonton net during one of the power plays (i think in the third period?) to keep possession of the puck. i was glad to see him make the roster, i think he’s a smart player and a solid person to have on the 4th line. 

i adored joshua’s game, honestly he was one of the standouts of the night for me. he was willing to use his body, not only to block shots on the pk but also to drop the gloves less than 5 minutes into the game, but he was also able to position himself well to be in scoring positions and it paid off as he scored the 8th and final goal for the canucks. joshua is one of my favourite players, and i hope he continues doing well this season both with his physicality and his scoring, he is nothing but an asset and really is a necessary staple of our third line at this point. 

the hirose/juulsen pairing did well when they were on the ice, nothing notable, however the cole/meyers pairing was incredible. very physical, both in hits and blocking shots, able to get back quickly and had some nice puck distributions, and other then meyer’s stupid penalty in the first period, they were great. ian cole is an amazing addition to the team and i can’t wait to see what more he will do, especially on the pk, he was excellent and i can’t wait to see more. 

the “pbj” line of di guiseppe, boeser, and miller was incredible and so productive. near the net all night, lighting the lamp, excellent puck possession and was able to fight the hard battles in the corners. of course boeser’s 4 goals deserve to be celebrated, they were incredible (especially the first goal? sexy, sexy hockey), but di guiseppe and miller’s passes made it possible for boeser to finish the passes with incredible accuracy. these guys also did great work on the pp, they made up an excellent second unit to keep the pressure in the edmonton zone without the stars on the ice, and i think boeser got his groove back. lets see 30+ goals this season.

tocchet really loaded up the top line and the top d pairing, with hughes/hronek and garland/pettersson/kuzmenko as the top lines. i thought both lines did an excellent job not only creating chances, but also shutting down the mcdrai line when they were both out at the same time. petey had some stunning, sexy passes (i’m still thinking about his first pass to garland for the first goal,,,, holy shit that was sexy) and garland was able to hold his weight and finish the chances he was given practically on a platter. kuzya had a quiet night, but he made some productive moves to keep possession and he was able to keep the puck in the offensive zone during pp time so i’m not mad at how he played, i know he will only improve from here. hughes/hronek were exceptionally productive, both in passing and in blocking shots, and they had mcdavid shut down all night. the oilers not registering a single high danger scoring chance AT ALL at 5v5 with petey on the ice?? yeah that’s my selke candidate right there

and demko, how can i forget about thatcher demko? he made save after save, and the dmen gave him space to do so every time. he had a clear line of vision, and he used it. he made some incredible saves and came away with a save percentage that reflected that, all while having the flu! shoutout to desmith, though he only was in for 10 minutes he made some strong saves and didn’t look as nervous between the pipes as he did during the preseason. i’m glad he settled in nicely.

overall, we worked very well as a team. special teams were cooking, goalies were cooking, everything looked cohesive. there were some big hits, from joshua, meyers, and petey notably, and some good blocks. other then the first 5 minutes of the first period, and some sloppy passing in the middle, it was a strong, dominant game. we choked the life out of the oilers, even getting noted most boring man in the nhl to make salty comments about our decisions. i'm most proud of how we handled ourselves in the third, as edmonton were losing their heads with sloppy hits and stupid penalties, we kept ourselves together.

we fucking won. it was a great game. i'm so excited for this season. see you on saturday in edmonton.

Thoughts post Scarlet/Violet

So, I just finished the game, the central gimmick of which is paradoxes, and what a perfect gimmick it is. The game itself feels like I'm playing a paradox. It is simultaneously one of the least polished, glitchiest, most poor optimized and unaesthetically pleasing messes of a game I've ever willingly played. At the same time, it is undoubtedly in my mind the best mainline Pokémon game and a true tour de force of quality-of-life upgrades, fun battling, raising, fashion, postgame, and sense of community. Every hour I would have a moment of

"Who the hell said this ready to go to market?"

simultaneously followed up with,

"This is such a good addition, the design, mechanic, etc; here is exactly what was needed."

Truly paradox is the perfect theme for a game that honestly feels like one itself.

Vanecek’s shutout was his second this season and eighth in the NHL. He is 12-1-1 in his past 15 games. “The defense played really good, so I was just trying to help them all the time,” Vanecek said. “It’s nice to get the shutdown, but the win is always…

btw game recap: quinn was great; he sees the ice so well and it is so evident that is the case! walks that blue line with the best of em and can create offense from nothing. brock boeser is very cool very stoic on ice and also ripped off one of the best shots i’ve ever seen in person for his 24th of the year it was literally awe inducing. i love when a guy can RIP it and he can and did!! elias needs more skill on his line to complement him but he’s got these flashes of brilliance that make you go ah, he IS one of the best centers in the game…… the best third line in hockey did me proud by scoring in the first and then again in the third when i said out loud “they are the best third line in hockey” and then they came up the ice on the rush and conor garland crashed the net and scored. (u can see me and max LEAPING to our feet when he scores. horrifying to perceive our own existence). the experience of tymy and big z is so baffling. you’re like. those two men are SO large. every time they were on the ice every stars fan around us were like “omg they are so tall???” so that was funny. and i’m trying not to be embarrassing about this but jt miller plays GROWN MAN HOCKEY like he is so strong and bullish……. just outmuscles guys….. drives hard to the net…. a power forward in the truest sense of the word….. i loved watching him he’s gotta be one of my favorite guys i’ve ever watched live like i don’t even care he doesn’t backcheck sometimes!!

#to speak NOTHING of the way he (jt) goes no bucket in warmies…. family next to us on the glass had a sign that said AMERICA RUNS ON MILLER #he immediately clocked it and tapped on the glass for them and winked and i was like 😳 it was very……….. #internally i was like girl stand UP but i could not….. #he’s just got an Aura i fear 😞 #meg.txtpost #game recap

So the Tampa Bay Lightning have done it again! And no one really seems surprised. I certainly am not.

On May 14, as soon as the final horn sounded and the handshakes between Toronto and Tampa Bay were over, I said to myself, "If the Lightning could beat us, they can beat anyone else in the East. If we couldn't topple the kings of the hill, if we couldn't make them believe it should be over, no one can." And I was right. (Can I be called a hockey prophet now? Maybe just until I'm proved wrong about something, like everyone else, lol.)

But I wanted to recap my thoughts on this series against New York, and game 6 in particular.

I thought it was going to be a cake walk for the Lightning, especially with New York coming off a game 7 and one day's rest. Four, maybe five games. But even the greats have to stumble on their way, and Tampa Bay got caught loose and flatfooted in those opening two games. The Rangers made them pay, all the way up to putting Tampa Bay down 2-0 in game 3. Tampa Bay woke up, fought back, and... won the next four games. (Which I also called, as soon as they lost game 2.) Over all, it was a great, hardfought series.

The goaltending, particularly in those last four games, was unbelievable. If Auston Matthews loses the Hart to Igor Shesterkin, I can't complain. Once Tampa Bay got their focus back, he was the biggest reason the games stayed so close. He was freaking amazing. But opposite him, Vasilevskiy turned up his own brilliance. I was most impressed by Vasey's stickhandling, the coolness with which he would take the puck and play it off to his defence, even when a Ranger was there about to steal. Or the confidence in how he'd make a glove save, and then put the puck right back in play, knowing exactly where he wanted it to go, which teammate's stick it needed to be on.

Third star for game 6: Andrei Vasilevskiy

Second star for game 6: Igor Shesterkin

But my first star for game 6 is this guy:

Captain Steven Stamkos

He broke the scoreless tie late in the 2nd, with a beautiful snipe from the top of the circle that went far side on Shesterkin. I just... love seeing him do that. Seeing him now, as a veteran, as a guy who's getting into the latter half of his career, who's hung with this team for so many years, it just thrills me when he shows how much of 'it' he still has. Then the 3rd period, he took a stupid holding call on Alexis Lafrenière, and the desperate Rangers scored on the power-play. As Stamkos skated back across to his bench, the Tampa Bay coach John Cooper pointed at him, calling out, "That's on you. That's on you." And how did Stammer respond?

Scored the winning goal on his next shift, 21 seconds later.

THAT IS LEADERSHIP. THAT IS A WINNER. THAT IS STEVEN STAMKOS.

-Cooper and Stamkos, Coach and Captain

For me that resilience and knowledge of each other as a team, was Tampa Bay's greatest strength. The way passes clicked, the way everyone knows exactly who to take on the backcheck, the bonds of trust and familiarity between everyone from Vasilevskiy to Maroon to McDonagh to Palat. Steve Yzerman may be gone now, but the work he put in to lay the foundations for this team is carried beautifully onward by Coop, Stammer, and the rest. Tampa Bay is sitting in that sweet spot of a winning family, and no matter what happens in this Stanley Cup Final, I hope they can enjoy that for awhile yet.

Onward and Upward!!

What the Cowboys Did Right and Wrong Against the Seahawks

What a crazy game last night. Somehow throughout all the chaos, the Dallas Cowboys managed to scoot past the Seattle Seahawks in a nail bitting score of 26-27. What did the Cowboys do right to win this game, or, perhaps more importantly what did the Cowboys do wrong in this game? Let’s first start with the number of yards gathered by each team.
