Music, Sports, Dogs, Sardonicism. Maybe Shadowrun (6e) & (2014) 5e talk. Inactive nurse, now 37% Wolverine parts, 1.3% acrylic. Half-smart, half-ass, a matter of taste which half is on duty. Making sanity fun since 3rd grade. He/him.

Hmmm… Ovechkin has 42 goals in 67 career games against the Sabres. What kind of odds can I get that he gets it tomorrow night?
Well. After back-to-back games where they blew 2-1 & 3-2 leads to cough up a point in OT, they come back from down 2-0 & 3-1 to salvage a point from OT.

Somehow, they all feel the same.

The only thing that’s going to cure losing is winning.
The fancy-ass stats are going to love them tonight.

If they don’t get one in the next six minutes, the Bruins are going to love the two points.
Sabres host the Capitals Saturday night.
Dahlin coughs up a puck just inside the Bruins zone, they go away 2-on-1 and Khusnutdinov beats Lyon short side.
