What no one wants to talk about is that if top-3 picks were the correct way to rebuild then TOR, NYI, NYR, NJD, EDM, should have all won at least 3 cups between them over the past 15 years
The Carolina Hurricanes become the 16th team in the analytics era to have an original top 3 draft selection on the team.
But the Blues think they can become a contender by competitively retooling and picking 10-20th every draft.
You can't.

Cocktails should be banned at all nyc bars this summer, huge labor bottleneck

congrats to the hurricanes on building a team that could defeat the ottawa senators, philadelphia flyers, montreal canadians, and a 95pt vegas golden knights

they also may have had the easiest road to the cup of all time!
K'Andre Miller is a Stanley Cup champion.
He led Carolina's skaters in ice time these playoffs (around 24 minutes a game), had nine points in 19 games and was 12. What a postseason for the ex-#NYR defenseman.

Basketball gods just said Donald trump suck ma dick bing bong
UFC Freedom 250 is facing a chaotic weather setup on the White House South Lawn, with a 60% chance of thunderstorms, heavy downpours, and wind gusts up to 34 mph threatening to delay the outdoor fights. On top of the storm risk, brutal D.C. humidity is driving a triple-digit heat index alongside massive swarms of mosquitos and gnats that fighters will have to battle inside the cage. While the venue’s massive 92-foot overhang will keep the octagon dry, a single lightning strike within eight miles will trigger an automatic 30-minute freeze on the entire event.

we don't have to play dumb here - the main reason to get trade protection is to prevent yourself from getting traded. not so that when you demand a trade you can force your team to agree to a certain destination

if you're born in new york you can never experience the true new york, just every formative experience of your childhood and adolescence
if you're born in new york, you can never experience the true new york, the thing that makes people consider it the greatest city in the world, in the same way those born rich never know the value of a dollar. you can only experience everywhere else as impoverished of its unique energy. native new yorkers know this and so out of envy despise those who love their city most.

Chase bridges ruined the 400s and the higher up 200s. You might as well watch at a bar, you can’t feel anything in these.

The cheapest ticket at MSG for game 3 of the NBA Finals is going for $7,500 in section 420. This is the view from that seat.

It’s so funny that this is in response to Dumbo

all my life living in New York, I believed in never gatekeeping, always sharing the good spots. But now I am at 180° away from that belief. Anything even mildly good about the city, if shared, gets ruined and overrun instantly. and the people overrunning it are pure selfish narcissists with no regard for anyone else, none of the city's spirit of situating yourself among others. Just selfish little suburban brats everywhere taking incredibly stupid photos. It really does have to stop somehow.

Keep in mind this was a ‘defense heavy draft’ sounds kind of familiar

The problem with the editing is a feature of the new era game. Compelling moves get screen time. Players who make those moves are seen as a threat and voted out.
The show needs to tweak the game to fix this!

Final thoughts:
- The editing this season was so weird! The final 5 did not feel like the main characters of the season at all!
- I’m happy that I avoided spoilers as much as possible, even tho I ended up getting spoiled
- thank you guys so much for a great season!

Aubrey is a deserving winner but it’s unsatisfying. The twists take away from everyone’s gameplay. The blood moon, jimmy fallon and the split tribes dampened chances at actual gameplay. #survivor

Add to the list the team vote! Yeah the twists keep players on their heels but it comes at the expense of maneuvering - the thing the jury values the most!!
