Fair. Especially as it will be raining buckets here in Portland. I’ll need the break.

Meanwhile I’m going to see them in Anaheim again at the magical Honda Center. (I’m actually very excited, get to see them on a back to back against the Ducks and Kings, it’s just decidedly less glamorous)

The line flow makes no sense, especially as you’re coming through the ticket counter areas. Terrible.
August 13, 2025 at 6:47 PM
Fair - that really makes no sense at all.

Absolutely. We usually fly in and out of terminal 7, which is calm and comfortable, security usually easy. Went back on Delta this time, had to go through 4. What a madhouse, security was a mess.

Yeah - absolutely one of the teams I hate the most. Hopefully this is an upgrade though.
August 13, 2025 at 5:02 PM
On a basic “team gets engaged owners that want to keep them in Portland” level I’m excited. On a “not this freaking guy with the offer sheet and the stupid social media team” level I’m horrified.

Yes, but the important thing is that I can finally make the LA trip again since it’s not during the week!

Just finished it - thanks for addressing this, it was a great episode overall! Especially loved Ian’s point about the next 2C needing to be an answer and not a maybe.

First - thanks to you both! You make this even more fun, especially for a fan on the other side of the continent.

I think it’s clear that Marty and the players have a bond that’s a big part of their progress. What’s the most pressing area of growth for Marty from a coaching/tactical perspective?
May 1, 2025 at 6:24 PM
Definitely - the clock is ticking now, and the margin of error is going to keep getting smaller. But this is going to be fun!
May 1, 2025 at 6:08 PM
You did a great job, you two are so great together! Thanks for making a fun season even better!

Anyone whose takeaway from this season is anything but hope and excitement must not be seeing what most of us are seeing. They’re building something special whether it produces a Cup or not.

I can’t see him not being an important piece of this team going forward. Not a long term 2C, but he fits right in to what they’re looking to be.

Is it safe to assume that’s Reinbacher’s spot to lose?

I thought Oregon football wrecked me emotionally until the last few weeks - this is rough. This will either make me irrationally happy or irrationally sad, but either way the response will likely be out of proportion. Still fun? I think?
April 16, 2025 at 4:42 PM
Highlights their growth as well as Marty’s. Everyone has way more to go, but this is working.
April 16, 2025 at 4:23 PM
Trying to keep perspective, this is probably a year ahead of what was expected. They’re not out and there’s absolutely tons to be excited about going forward. And Demidov on the ice with another day to acclimate gives me hope.
April 16, 2025 at 1:37 AM
Unreal. And so happy for Newhook.
April 14, 2025 at 11:19 PM
Not that he’s the long term solution, but I think Newhook is a good option at C for Demidov, and maybe it helps Newhook get the goal he desperately needs and deserves.
April 14, 2025 at 3:51 PM
Weird thing for them to care about, but whatever.
April 10, 2025 at 3:31 AM
I’m finishing today’s episode right now and I’m so excited for Ian and Laura from that moment and what they are going to find out!!
April 8, 2025 at 7:49 PM
I’m no expert, so if I can tell that you’re a boring mess of a team, that says a lot. I watched the last have of Isles/Canucks tonight and immediately began to regret it.
