I wish to hell I had the FSMW or internet option in Florida. But since NBCSN took the game, both those options are blacked out. I get to play the "guess which channel the game is on" game since NBCSN scheduled the Rangers/Canadiens game for 6 CT which is 100% guaranteed to overlap the Blues game. 2.5 hours... seriously? Actual minutes for games, not including period breaks, average ~2.5 hours. The Blues shortest game this season, minus period breaks, was 2 hours 19 minutes.

Hate when networks schedule crap this way. Not as bad as college football and the 3 hour window they schedule when games last 4 hours or more.

I know here we have the game on both channels, no more blackouts so we can punish ourselves with the 'national' feed or the local feed.

ETA: NHL Network is the normal overflow channel as well, but they won't ever tell you in advance, because the NHL hates you. That is why we cant get the goddamn playoff schedule till 2 am on a (Franking) monday.

Thank goodness for SiriusXM. Listen to Kerbs and Chaser, instead of the National Blackhawks Cock Sucking Network maroons.

Dubnyk won his last 3 games which trashes the whole playing a struggling net-minder option. 2.67 GAA, .916 SV%

Not as strong as Allen's been playing, but he stopped playing like total ass as he did in March.

Yeah, he is playing a little better. Those 3 games are vs COL (2GA), vs CAR (3GA), and @COL (3GA) though.

3 months ago he was the runaway Vezina favorite. While he did ok against 2 cellar teams, if I'm the Wild, in the back of my mind I'm still wondering what Dubnyk is going to give us.

I'm here. I check in often...just haven't posted much in a while.
I have had a crazy busy life lately.
Got divorced last year, I'm currently selling my house (maintaining a rather large-ass house and keeping up with 5 acres of grass to cut isn't easy), I'm doing the weekly podcast (which is a blast), plus trying to continue my home business as well as my full time job...plus trying to have a social life as well...blah, blah, blah.

I am also no longer commissioner of the fantasy leagues I am in...just no time to mess with it.

BUT...I'll post the playoff brackets here in a sec... I thought about that this morning.

And the bastards, due to having games starting at 7 on NH/NBCSN and 7:30 on USA, will tell us just to stream the game on their lame app and it's horrible quality video. Anyone willing to take bets that all 3 of those games will have ~10 minutes left in the 3rd period when the Blues and Sharks games are supposed to be on the air.
