Should be interesting to see Toronto up close however. 151 goals in 37 games is silly.

The Leafs have 140 in 37. The Lightning have 154 in 37.

The issue with the hit isn't the point of contact, it's the fact that it was a late blindside hit on a player unable to defend himself. It is predatory, unnecessary, and as the NHL likes to say, "not

It maybe all over for the Habs, Price is out with lower body injury 😢

I'm still not seeing any detail on it besides the fact he won't on the road trip. 

It is a bit spooky. Niemi against Tampa on Saturday sounds like something to avoid watching.

Some mystery incident involving Bobrovsky has him missing the game tonight. Lots of speculation and little in the way of facts.

My team is so, so horrible right now.  Just a complete lack of awareness and effort. 

I was kind of excited when Peter Chiarelli was brought in.  He never was an Oiler, so he had that going for him.

Now, I see why Boston fans laughed at Edmonton when he was signed.  What a moron.

It's really hard being a lifelong diehard fan of one of the worst run professional sports teams in existence.

Started to get into hockey couple years ago and loving it.  Even got the wife watching.  Becoming huge Blues fans.  This year didn’t look good at turn of the year, but on a roll right

Sometimes watching professional athletes practice is more fun than the actual competition.

For a meaningless game, I'm glad I got out of the office to watch the Habs-Leafs last night. 

Aside from the Poehling hattrick and shoot-out winner for Montreal, it was also Bob Cole's last broadcast on Hockey Night In Canada.

To me, Bob Cole sounded like the authentic voice of the sport. Any game he called seemed more official and more important just because it was his voice doing the call.

Really liking how the Blue Jackets are playing right now. 

Going to the game Tuesday night and will be in a suite thanks to the company that my buddy works for. 

It will be my first playoff hockey game.

Actually got the chance to see Game One. CBJ falls behind 3-0 and its here they go again. Then the game totally turns around.

I'm getting paroled tonight, so looking forward to see the rest of the playoffs.

The Columbus-TB series really has taken me by surprise (and many other folks as well I'm sure). CBJ has really ramped it up and the Bolts look almost resigned to getting swept.

Playoff hockey is just the best.

My old but trusty bag is filled with clubs I built...Integra SoooLong 450 10.5°, Jackaroo II 13* 16* 23*  hybrids, Dynacraft irons and wedges...plus a sweet Tad Moore Peach putter.

Was that game any good?

Bolts didn't want to pack it in and really made a game of it. I liked it, sitting on the couch.

Not a bad choice for your first.

It was a blast. Great back and forth game, we were getting pretty nervous in the 3rd though, wasn't sure if they'd be able to hold off basically an all out attack by Tampa for a full period but somehow they did.

Glad to hear it.

That's the type of view I like to have when I go to a game. You can see pretty much everything from there. Down low, you lose too much of the near boards on the ends.

It still blows not having my club in it, but the locals are giving me something to watch.

Watched part of game 6 of the Bruins/Leafs series and I remembered why I don't watch playoff hockey unless my team is in it. The officiating is atrocious (second season "rules" are dumb).

Well this whole thing is going in the least attractive way possible.  I'd really prefer not to see the Bruins win The Cup, but that freaking Rask guy is just too damn much.

      I am six and a half minutes into this video and honestly don't think I can handle any more of it. I do see some of my swing in his - sucks it inside and gets across the line at the top. He also looks like he comes OTT a little, but is then very in to out. That's probably my cluelessness about the swing showing up though. Did I hear him say he's 15* in to out? That's insane and not something I would think anyone would want to do. I'm surprised he put this out there if his goal is to sell his method to other people, you'd think he'd find someone good who uses it to model it, not himself.

      I think that would fall under the general umbrella of "kinematics".  And I'm sure that @iacas will correct me if I'm wrong, but in many cases the handle will be almost motionless by the time the clubhead impacts the ball.

      Physics

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I don't think it is called anything singularly specific in scientific terms other than how you described it. Some might call it a pendulum motion or something but that's probably super simplistic and not adequate description/definition. Of course, there's a whole gamut/combo of causal physics, biomechanics and geometry that results in the phenomenon.

      Dave's Journey With the Rules of Golf

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      As Erik says, he can correct the Wrong Place mistake by replacing the ball in its original location, see 14.5a, as long as he does it before making a Stroke at the ball.    I agree, and that's one of the worst aspects of being a rules official.  But its also an important part, I'm sure that player learned that one rule pretty clearly, and hopefully has learned to read the NTP and listen on the first tee.
