So far this season, Colorado has six 5v5 line combos with at least 30 minutes together. All six are averaging at least 70 attempts/60 and 3.0 xG/60. That includes the fourth line of Brindley-Kelly-Bardakov (74 attempts/60, 3.1 xG/60) per @evolvinghockey.bsky.social

Montreal is 3-3 in their last six games. In that span, outside of Suzuki/Caufield/Slaf, the forward with the most 5v5 TOI per game is Joe Veleno. The forward with the least 5v5 TOI per game is Ivan Demidov.

Buffalo's goal differential at 5v5 with at least one of Thompson, Tuch, or Benson on the ice: +6 (20 GF, 14 GA) Buffalo's goal differential with all three off the ice at 5v5: -9 (6 GF, 15 GA)

Scott Mayfield spin cycle

How much do the Jets miss not having Dylan Samberg? Let's look at how they did defensively last year at 5v5 with Morrissey/DeMelo off the ice and then this ye... oh... oh no...

San Jose PP1 with Orlov: 13:49 TOI, 130 shot attempts/60, 13.5 xGF/60, 5 goals San Jose PP1 with Klingberg: 28:42 TOI, 102 shot attempts/60, 7.8 xGF/60, 1 goal

A buddy asked me to go to a movie and I said “no I’m gonna stay in and spend my Friday night watching the New York Islanders” and that feels like one of those secret phrases a person says to let people know they’re being held hostage.

I remain steadfast in my belief that what Faker has done over the last 12 years is as impressive as anything we’ve ever seen in the Traditional Sports realm. What he’s done, and is still doing, just doesn’t happen in esports. It should be impossible, and yet

Tweet-length review of Predator: Badlands - that absolutely rocked. Not what I was expecting, but in a good way, and way more fun/funny than I thought it was going to be.

the STL goaltending has been very bad, but we should also consider it a miracle OTT is just one point out of a playoff spot considering that by Goals Saved Above Expected/60 minutes, they've been nearly as bad as STL (from @evolving-hockey.com)

it's easy to bag on the Rangers for the lack of scoring (which we should) but as a team, they've allowed the lowest percentage of HD shots against compared to all shots against (21.5%) and their opponents require the third-most shots to create one expected goal (10.32)

today's Ramblings has a round-up of last night's fantasy performances from Bertuzzi, Celebrini, Chychrun, Knight, Wolf, and more, as well as looking at some top players off to cold starts this season like Panarin and Vasilevskiy dobberhockey.com/2025/11/06/r...

The thing about pro wrestling is there are lots of different people and styles to enjoy, and that’s each fan’s prerogative. But if someone looks at this résumé and is still like, “she’s not a good pro wrestler, actually” I assume they’re a person who needs assistance cooking minute rice.

It’s Wednesday and you know what that means

was not really looking forward to Welcome to Derry but holy hell are the first two episodes so, so good. Does horror/suspense better than 95% of horror movies I've watched in the last few years.

I would really love to know what happened with Nate Schmidt because he was a reliable 2nd/3rd pair guy for years, then was so over-valued he was bought out in the 2024 offseason, then regained form in Florida and is now as good as he's ever been?

That Hutson shimmy on Dach’s second goal got me pregnant.

“I guess with the Habs getting blown out, now’s a good chance to watch *squints* the Bruins, the Sabres, or the Rangers.”

tweet-length review of Bugonia: like most of Lanthimos' movies, it'll be hit-or-miss depending on the individual, but I loved it. Definitely need a re-watch but Stone/Plemons are predictably incredible.

Max

I’m fucking dizzy

A walk and two hits with no runs

Anyway, here we go Max

It would be heartbreaking to see the Jays lose tonight but I think I’m at peace with it if that happens. The regular season was magic and the playoff run even better. Hard to complain about much if things don’t go their way. Been waiting to feel this since I was 8 years old.

Yamamoto might be ‘available’ in the sense that he’s on the roster and also alive, but I’m very much disinclined to believe he’ll be pitching tonight.

The pre-World Series NHL game on Sportsnet is Preds/Flames? What did I do to deserve this shabby treatment?

catching the GenG/KT replay and that game 1 lmfao good lord

Weird rehab assignment for Matt Tkachuk

Wish I knew more about Carl Gauss so I could make some Gausman-related math puns

Game 6 crutch

I write and/or do videos about the NHL every day and this is already the third time I’ve watched the Avs this year and I still keep forgetting Brent Burns is on the roster

Just finished watching AL/T1 from this morning and holy SHIT what a series. Guma’s Ashe in game 5 was absolutely nutty

Yoshi!

in today's Ramblings, I look at how production from defencemen has declined compared to this point of the last season, why it's a continuation of last year, and how it's hurting the top-end producers dobberhockey.com/2025/10/30/r...

with Michael Brandsegg-Nygård on the ice at 5v5, Detroit has a 60% xG share and have doubled the opponent's shot total (52-26). He also has a 792 PDO, which is pretty funny.
