Maybe you should stay away just to be safe? too much $ tied up to skip it, seats are too good + made a promise to teen-girl mojo for shopping and cute boy gazing, the Flyers have a bunch of young guys with good hair according to her.

I would think more cameras inside goalposts would be the obvious solution not in that goals case though, Holtby's fat ass was blocking all the light and angles. cameras mounted on the goal posts wouldn't have provided any different or better perspective than what we saw. sensors would have.

If it deosn't do that, then what's the point. It's just gimmickry otherwise. Let's hope right??? Knowing the league that haven't even thought of that....they just want to know how fast the puck is moving... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 This is what manyof us have been praying for all season to get the power play off life support...other teams will continue to play undisciplined hockey when you can't make them pay for their dumb mistakes and liberties they take towards our players. But hey you starting putting goals on the board and maybe they stop that bullsh it. Keep it going Fly guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think gps is accurate down to 4 inches...at least not commercial applications. 7 minutes ago, CoachX said: Totally agree.

I would think more cameras inside goalposts would be the obvious solution Yeah, sensors either in the ice or the posts I guess. So, obviously they haven't done that. Honestly, I think that's where the game is headed. Sensors in the ice, the goal line, the blue line etc. It would help get rid of the linesmen. Replace the refs with chimpanzees while they're at it. Free up some space out there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with sensors, as long as they work. I think there needs to be a human factor attached to common sense. It was obvious last nights goal was across, but due to the rule of having irrefutable evidence, the goal was disallowed. Smart officials making good money should be able to make the obvious call. But they instead, hide behine a rule which absolves them of responsibility 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 And this doesn't hurt either making them pay when the refs aren't intervening in the game.... A bottom 6 like that is what they have been needing. Chuckles has got the combo right. Nailed it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echobats is still just the two of us, but in a completely different direction. We've been getting a lot more traction doing more pop type stuff, and honestly, we just don't have time to do full organic band based stuff. I wrote so many songs that would fit the Drama Tree mould, but it takes a lot out of me because I'm writing all of it - drums, guitars, bass, keys, and then I'm performing, recording, mixing, producing it all as well. Long-term we are focusing on the production, writing, engineering side of music, and what we release as Echobats is proof of concept. We are taking on up and coming talent and helping them express the very best of what they have to give - baby steps right now though. Long story short, Girl That I Love (current release) is a very poppy and mainstream song. Upcoming releases are a bit grittier (heh). My biggest problem is that I just love writing music of all kinds. I'm like a squirrel that way lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
