It’s official - Kevyn Adams is out, Jarmo Kekäläinen named the new Sabres general manager

Not gonna lie if I was Kevyn Adams I would've called Allvin and offered "Power, Byram, any two forwards you want not named Thompson, Norris, or Doan, and a first".

How you review this and rule it a hand pass is beyond me (h/t @joeyerdon.bsky.social)

Last night's Caps-Leafs game didn't have the first commercial break until 12min left in the 2nd. What's the latest into a game that the first commercial break has happened?

"The downballot races heavily favor Star Trek." might be the most bluesky-coded sentence ever written.

It's also entirely correct imo. Tentpole productions lean Star Wars, but down the line there's a lot of great Star Trek and a lot of truly awful Star Wars.
A hill I'll die on is that the only thing to come out of the Star Wars universe that is arguably better than "Star Trek: The Next Generation" is Andor, and even then I'll probably call it a draw based on volume and a bias for my youth. The downballot races heavily favor Star Trek.

The Sabres currently have the following positions ibjured/otherwise not in the lineup:

1C, 1LW, 2C, 2LW, 4RW, 1LHD (usually plays 1RD)

The following have also missed notable amounts of the season: 1RHD, 2LHD, 3LHD (who usually plays 1LD), 1G.

OOOOOF

What camera shows that being a goal?? (Leafs Bruins). It definitely might be but the SN broadcast has shown no conclusive evidence

@hockeyviz.com (a thought inspired by your repost of this gorgeous viz) Have you ever tried heatmapping zone entry paths? Maybe there's certain players who always enter from the left wall and drive deep, some who enter and cut across, some who stop up to make a pass, or maybe it's a f(coaching)?

The fact that "racewalks" fits in the NYT Strands today and somehow isn't the spangram is a testament to the genius of the puzzlemaker.

Man unnecessary roughness on sliding QBs is so broken. Bernard had already made his leap towards Maye before Maye started to slide. Literally can't avoid hitting him at that point.

Easton Cowan is playing well, but he won't make the team if he keeps missing the net with his shot.

The team in blue and gold lost... appropriate start to the season.

Players who's stock increased: Mrtka, Kucharcik, Laberge

Players who's stock decreased: Rosén, Östlund, Rosén, Bedkowski, Rosén, Brunet, Rosén

In case you can't tell, I was really unimpressed by Rosén's performance tonight.
