Habs look to end Western swing on a positive note
Blog: The Upper Canadien By The Upper Canadien
10/30/14 at 08:16 PM ET | Comments (0)
The 3-0 loss to the Oilers was, without a doubt, a clunker. Boring game, team didn't show up, looked tired - it is going to happen. Calgary, well, that was another story. The team showed up, somewhat, but primarily the guy who showed up was Carey Price, who put on a clinic.
Tonight, the Habs head into Price's home province to take on the Vancouver Canucks and look to end the trip with a good performance. Jiri Sekac looks likely to get back into the lineup, while many fans continue to debate the defensive side of the lineup. Nathan Beaulieu may be out again, but many fans will want to see Tom Gilbert sit in favour of the kids, though Gilbert had a fairly solid game on Tuesday and chipped in with a goal.
If Price stands on his head, the Habs take this one. No doubt he'll want to put on a show for his family and friends. It's a late start, but it will be a good one. Hope you can catch it.

Teams Showing Interest In Chris Stewart
10/30/14 at 06:09 PM ET | Comments (4)
from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN,
It's not a matter of if, but rather when the Buffalo Sabres flip pending UFA Chris Stewart.
There's nothing imminent as far as we can tell. We reported earlier that the Boston Bruins have him as one of their targets and another Atlantic Division team the Ottawa Senators had talks earlier this month with the Sabres. The Senators tried to trade for him before the trade deadline last spring. They spoke again to Buffalo a few weeks back but nothing came of it for now.
The Bruins, meanwhile, have been hammered on defense by injuries, so perhaps their need would be best served there, but a source said Thursday that Boston's plan right now is to ride this out, knowing that within a month or so most of their injured blueliners will be healthy. No panic trade in store.

It's All About Patience For The Colorado Avalanche
10/30/14 at 05:37 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Ryan Boulding of the Avs website,
The Colorado Avalanche is 1-0-3 in the last four games, and while the wins haven't been coming in, the club is still picking up valuable points along the way. That doesn't mean the team is satisfied....
Although things are trending in the right direction, the Avs are still looking to string together some wins. According to head coach Patrick Roy, that will come with patience. As long as the team can relax, do the work required of them and respect the process, good things will come.
"Whether it's bad luck or just not being sharp enough or whatever it is, for some reason we can't finish the job in those overtime games and shootout games," said Matt Duchene. "It's frustrating, but I think you've just got to find the fun and enjoyment of the game back. Just come to the rink everyday a little bit lighter on your feet and try to enjoy it a bit more."

More Las Vegas/NHL Talk
10/30/14 at 05:01 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Howard Stutz of the Las Vegas Review-Journal,
In an interview following MGM Resorts third-quarter earnings conference call, company CFO Dan D'Arrigo said preliminary discussions had taken place with a group interested in housing an NHL team at the MGM-AEG arena, which will have 20,000 seats, along with luxury boxes and other amenities.
D'Arrigo didn't go into details on the talks and whether the group was looking to move an existing NHL team to Las Vegas or seeking an expansion franchise.
"We would be supportive of an NHL team coming to our arena," D'Arrigo said. "We're highly interested and we have been in discussions with a group."
National media outlets have reported in recent months that an NHL team would land at the new arena, which began construction earlier this year and is expected to open in 2016. The NHL has denied the reports, the most recent of which came last week in the New York Post.

Advanced Stats- The Early Z-Score Adjusted FF%
10/30/14 at 04:19 PM ET | Comments (0)
from Stephen Burtch of Sportsnet,
First, we account for the league-wide spread in shot attempt differentials in each game state – rarer game states will show a wider spread in results. We then determine a weighted average for every NHL player's percentage of shot attempts, weighting their results in different situations by the amount of TOI they have played at 5v5 in each game score state (trailing by 2+, trailing by 1, tied, leading by 1, leading by 2+).
The resulting statistic, Z-Score Adjusted Fenwick For Percentage (Z-Score Adj. FF%), gives us a reasonable tool for comparing the results of individual NHL skaters relatively early in the season. When we combine this with individual skater PDO (Sum of On-Ice SH% and SV% at 5v5) we can form a clearer picture of who is driving the successes and failures around the NHL so far this season.
Some of the more interesting highlights for Z-Score Adjusted FF% so far would be as follows:

Kerry Fraser On "The Blown Call" In The Detroit/Washington Game
10/30/14 at 01:14 PM ET | Comments (33)
from Kerry Fraser of TSN,
You weren't the only confused fans when this potential game-changing decision was made by trailing referee Ghislain Hebert to disallow Drew Miller's legitimate goal. Instead of the Wings being credited with scoring the first goal of the game they went on the penalty kill when a phantom goalkeeper interference penalty was assessed to Luke Glendening.
There is no way to sugar-coat this blown call. I'm certain the referee would be the first to admit the play did not happen the way that he thought it did from his position in the neutral zone. There is no value in beating him up over it as mistakes happen. What I want to focus our attention on is the breakdown in the two-referee system that took place in hopes it won't happen again; along with options that might have been available to alter this decision on the ice. Video review is presently unable to provide information or confirmation to referees on penalty infractions so there was no option for them to get involved on this play once the penalty was assessed.

Around The Ten Game Mark
10/30/14 at 01:08 PM ET | Comments (8)
The San Jose Sharks have played 11 games, a handful of teams have played 10 and the rest are either at 8 or 9 games played.
Yes I know it is early but my early surprise teams are Nashville, Vancouver, New York Islanders and Calgary on the plus side.
My surprises on the other end have to be St. Louis, Columbus and Colorado.
By far, the Flames are way above my expectations while Colorado has yet to play up to their potential.
How about you? Full NHL standings are below for you to review.

PHILADELPHIA -- Wayne Simmonds starred at one end of the ice, Steve Mason at the other and that was a winning combination for the Flyers on Thursday night.
Simmonds scored a pair of goals and Mason stopped 33 of 35 Dallas shots in Philadelphia's 4-2 win at the Wells Fargo Center.
It was the Flyers' fourth straight victory and while it didn't come easy, it was good enough to strengthen their hold on second place in the Metropolitan Division.
Mason was particularly effective in the second period after the Stars had cut the Flyers' lead to 2-1. He made several outstanding saves as the Stars came charging, particularly during a five-on-three situation, and finished the period with 17 shots.
"(Mason) made some huge saves for us, especially during that five-on-three,'' Simmonds said after the game. "He gave us an opportunity to keep the lead and get the win.''
Mason has been getting good defensive support in his past few games so he was more than happy to contribute on a night where nothing was easy.
"(The Stars) are very fast off the rush,'' Mason said. "Big bodies in front of the net. It's a tough team to contain.
"Games have ways of sorting themselves out. Tonight was kind of a tough one because we were clinging to that one-goal lead. The guys found a way to come out and get some big goals in the third period.''
Simmonds' 13th power-play goal of the season capped the Flyers' dominant first period.
Scott Hartnell's shot caromed off both posts before Simmonds tucked the puck behind Tim Thomas at 13:21.
That goal was preceded by Mark Streit's goal at 10:23. Claude Giroux beat Cody Eakin on a left circle draw. Streit one-timed a slap shot which found its way just inside the right post.
It was the 30th goal scored by the Flyer defense corps this season.
The Flyers finished the period with 16 hits and only one giveaway.
It was a different story in the second period.
Dallas posted those 17 shots and forced the Flyers to take one penalty after another. Finally, after the Flyers killed off 31 seconds of a five-on-three situation, Jamie Benn connected with Philadelphia still down a man.
Then Mason had to hold the fort.
"Unbelievable,'' Braydon Coburn said of Mason. "He was a rock back there for us. He's been doing that a lot lately. They got some great chances and he was really able to shut the door on them.''
Added Simmonds: "We owe this win to him.''
In the third period, Simmonds and Benn traded goals before Michael Raffl scored with 3:12 to play to seal the win.
Simmonds now has 23 goals, one behind team leader Giroux. Coach Craig Berube says Simmonds has become more of a complete player this season.
"He's grown this year as a power forward,'' Berube said. "I think his game has improved on the rush. He's become a very good rush player. He forechecks, skates hard, does all that dirty work in front of the net. He's just found his role and he plays it very well.''
Simmonds nearly had a hat trick in the final minute but his long flip shot toward an empty net was caught by defenseman Sergei Gonchar a few feet from the goal line.
"(Simmonds) jumps on his skates and he's really fast,'' Giroux said. "I think this kind of game, when he gets on the forecheck, it's his kind of game. Every battle, it looks like he's winning them.''
Short shots
Flyers prospect Shayne Gostisbehere, a defenseman with second-ranked Union College, was named one of 10 finalists for the Hobey Baker Award (college player of the year). ... The Stars' power-play goal in the second period snapped a streak of 19 straight successful Flyer penalty kills. ... The Flyers have now won the last 14 straight games in which Giroux has registered a point. ... Prior to the Olympic break, the Flyers were averaging 0.65 goals in the first period of games. Since the break: 1.60. ... Simmonds' 13 power-play goals put him in a tie for second in the NHL, pending completion of Thursday night action. ... Last time the Flyers got 30 goals from their defense was 2009-10.

I know that many of you are very eager for a new post. So, quick story: on Saturday we were at Aztec Ruins National Monument, exploring the ruins (totally not Aztec - more on that later - plus photos) via the self-guided tour. About halfway through, I'm taking photos when I feel bitey pains on ...
Bisti Badasslands
... the Scamp and got it set up nicely in the inlet. The view was spectacular. There were probably two or three other campers in the badlands area, but we could not see any of them from our site. We overlooked the badlands below and just could not get over the fact that we could sleep right there, for free! Erik went to work creating a toilet for me. I have never been so proud of myself for roughing it like this before. ...
From buffalo for breakfast to a Navajo night
... flowing creek. Aaah, the smell of spruce and fresh high altitude air and whitewater. It was at least 10AM but so cold that we put on pants and sweaters before taking a walk along the stream.
Back on the road. We reached Mesa Verde. Nay really wanted the full enchilada experience, so that we did...went on a ranger-led tour of one of the largest Pueblo cliff dwellings. Just getting to the first room of the dwelling involved climbing ...
Night 23: Up America's Stairs
... and potato. This meal seemed to be made for an entire family.
From St. George we drove up to Zion National Park, stopping at a tiny closed post office in one of the tiny towns on the way. Along the way I saw the last of the Joshua trees we would see. The land got greener next to the flowing Virgin River. I knew from the little research I did that the road into the heart of the park was closed to traffic. Because it gets so crowded in the canyon, since 1999 the NPS ...
Exploring Mesa Verde
... fantastic which was why it took me almost an hour to get from the park entrance to the Visitors Centre 20 miles into the park. I will post some of the pictures I took of the dwellings and the scenery just o give you a taste of what my day was like.
I'll just add that once I got to my motel room (2 hr ride) I was so tired I ordered pizza in rather than go out for supper.

Now that we're in week six, it fair to say that there's been plenty of action to sift through and determine which division hosts the best teams and promises to be the most exciting as the season progresses.
Surely, there may be a few upsets along the way as teams try maintain a strong footing for the divisional contest, but expect most of the thrill to remain within the NFC West.
So don't be surprised if you see some of grittiest and closest games coming from the NFC West teams. For the moment the NFC West stands to be the best division in the NFL and the following are the reasons in support of my argument.
Most Winning division this season
By Week2, the NFC West had already posted the best combined divisional record across NFL. The combined record of the four NFC West teams comes out at 15-9, which is a .625 winning percentage.
By comparison, the NFC North, which ranks in second behind the NFC West, teams have produced a combined total of 13-9.
And while you may stick with the bye week arguments, there nothing much that can be said in front of the NFC West's better divisional winning percentage.
Point Differential
The NFC West has been consistently leading the NFL in aggregate point differential across every week. At this stage in the season the four NFC West teams are at a combined total of over 87 points.
Rams are at the bottom of the division with -1 in point differential but that where they stood in Week 2, so it's better than half of the NFL teams.
The NFC West have only allowed opponents a combined 395 points in 24 games. And the division poses the strongest defenses across NFL in terms of points allowed by the team.
The NFC West teams have also stood strong against competition from outside their division. The four NFC West teams have a combined 12-6 record in inter-divisional games, so that they are leading the eight NFL divisions.
The NFC East, home to the 2012 Super Bowl champions has a combined total of 10-9, while NFC North raked in a respectable 11-7.
The NFC South, despite the so far undefeated Atlanta Hawks is at a miserable 7-8 in inter-divisional competition.
The NFC West teams have amazingly come-out as winners on the other end against power houses such as the New England Patriots, Washington Redskins, New York Jets as well as the Green Bay Packers and Carolina Panthers. Outside division teams such as New England Patriots and Green Bay Packers have lost multiple games at the hands of NFC West teams.
And that too, with three of the division's teams managing games along under 11 of the most difficult schedules in the NFL.
Why the NFC West are the best amongst the eight NFL divisions this season

Food. We work, love, even cross continents for it. We adore certain foods with a passion, while disliking others to the point of hatred. There are no rules when it comes to taste, and this makes reviews and "best of" lists subjective – it's hard to pin down the intangible quality of "yummy."
Yet, the joy of eating is universal. Nowhere is this more apparent than in Asia, a continent that takes its food so seriously that almost every conversation, regardless of language or culture, begins with the question, "have you eaten?"
While people in cities with sophisticated dining scenes like Paris or New York City, seek out restaurants for their fine food, ambience, wine list, or sheer experience, they just as frequently do so for their celebrated chefs. Renowned chefs like Jamie Oliver and his restaurant Fifteen in London, see fanatic media coverage more frequently associated with pop stars.
From North America to Europe and Australia, the pursuit of fine dining is a great passion, with the world's best chefs at the helm. But despite Asia's great culinary delights, where street fare from Mumbai to Taipei are remarkable cuisines in their own right, try to name a "top Asian chef" and blank stares are often drawn.
Fine dining may be relatively new to Asia, but it is clear the world is beginning to notice her culinary achievements. The Michelin Guide, the prestigious guide to international dining, now publishes and ranks restaurants in an ever-growing number of Asian cities. The most recent exercise even saw Tokyo displacing Paris as the city with the largest number of three-star restaurants. Michelin stars are awarded sparingly and a 3-star Michelin ranking is exceedingly rare. As of November 2009, there were only eighty-one 3-star restaurants in the world.
The Singapore-based Miele Guide, a voter-driven restaurant ranking system, names the best 20 restaurants in Asia every year. Whether or not one relies on restaurant guides or word of mouth, one thing's for sure: all across the continent, cities from Hong Kong to Bangkok, even Bangalore, are witnessing a seachange in the culinary world: diners are increasingly demanding, restaurants are better than ever, and chefs are accordingly sophisticated and inventive.
Criteria for
There may be no homegrown Robuchons, Adrià, Blumenthals or Ducasses, but everything related to the act of eating in Asia has always thrived on its own terms. A new generation of Asian chefs trained in the methods of Western kitchens, have begun to apply the flavours and ingredients of their heritage to modern techniques. In this day and age, it's easy to enjoy a fine meal of any major cuisine in Kuala Lumpur or Hong Kong, at great value and as good as any in New York.
The list of Asian chefs who have established remarkable careers is a long one. Singapore's Andre Chiang, Justin Quek and Ronnie Chia have had trailblazing careers dishing out refined modern European, French and Japanese fare. Malaysia's Cheong Liew, widely revered in Malaysia and Australia, was the iconic masterchef at Adelaide's The Grange. Antonio Escalante consistently serves up Manila's best, while Av Khanijou's creates superb northern Indian dishes inspired by her Indian-Thai heritage in Pattaya. Meanwhile, Takashi Kimura's sublime Japanese-inspired French nouvelle cuisine in Kuala Lumpur is turning heads, as are Lebanese-Australian chef Greg Malouf's contemporary Middle East dishes.
The most exciting part of Asia's great culinary arts is when chefs either define tradition and do so exceedingly well, or when they manage to fuse their Western training and techniques with their Asian heritage to create bold and new flavours never before experienced.
From Kyoto to Bangkok, Hoi An to Hong Kong, my choices for Asia's top chefs eschew the conventional, opting for the fine line between tradition and invention.

Jazz Ensemble
Don Waldrop, Director
The Stetson Jazz is a major performing ensemble in the School of Music and is directed by veteran musician Don Waldrop. Performing four concerts per year, members are chosen by audition from musicians of the School of Music plus interested and talented non-music majors.
The ensemble, which is primarily an 18-member jazz big band, performs selections ranging from swing-era standards to contemporary originals, encompassing a variety of musical styles. Members of the jazz ensemble are also often formed into smaller groups for concerts and special events.
Big band music has existed at Stetson University since the late 1930's -- mainly in the form of a dance orchestra. With the increased inclusion of jazz in both secondary and higher education, the School of Music established the Stetson University Jazz Ensemble (now Setson Jazz) in the early 1970's. Over the past several years, the band has performed at festivals including the New Smyrna Beach Jazz Festival, the LYNX Jazz Festival in Orlando and the Noble Watts Jazz Festival in DeLand, in addition to concerts at Flagler Auditorium, the Dolly Hand Cultural Arts Center in Belle Glade and Disney World. Stetson Jazz also performs on campus for university functions along with its regularly scheduled fall and spring concerts in the Stetson Room.

Creed: Understanding the Visible and Invisible
- Wednesday, January 19, 2005
"Hold on!" I screamed, then cut the car to the same path the van had taken.
I was aware of only one thing: my hands clutching the steering wheel at 10 and 2 as the car seemed to make it's on way.
When we finally came to a stop I looked at my passengers. "Are you okay?" They all nodded a yes; though it was obvious they were stunned. I looked out the windshield to see our pastor running toward us. "Are you okay?" he asked when he reached me. I said that we were all no worse for the wear. I then chuckled. "My father would be proud," I said. "I kept my hands at 10 and 2."
Our pastor walked back toward his van as I restarted the car, then noticed Stacy starring at me. "What?" I asked.
"Why did you say your hands stayed at 10 and 2?"
"Because they did," I answered. "If I live to be a hundred, I'll always remember the way they looked on this steering wheel."
"No," she said, shaking her head. "That's impossible. You threw your arms over me."
"Are you sure?" I asked.
In my mind, the question has always remained: whose hands were on the steering wheel and whose kept Stacy pinned to her seat?
I no longer have to question whether or not there is an unseen world; I have seen it with my own eyes.

Robert Downey Jr. presented the Siskel Film Center tribute award to Jamie Foxx this weekend. Before RDJ went on stage to interview Jamie, I stole a moment to share how my friends and I think he is a whip-smart actor and how we've been digging him since "Less Than Zero" (yep I gave him a shout out from y'all as well). RDJ: "Well, I apologize for Iron Man 2 - Iron Man 3 will be better!" Jetta:"You made it hot, and there was action, so it was all good" (via Jettasetting)I wish this was me but it's not.

10/25/2014Easily one of the best free games available. Top quality gameplay and development. Loads of levels. Can be completed without in app purchases
10/1/2014Meh. Quickly frustrated my 6 year old.
9/28/2014Frustratingly hard with little payback. Feels like asteroids with gravity only your right button is stuck on constantly and you don't get to shoot.
9/27/2014Good concept, Limited game play. And Who thinks these creepy creatures are cute?
9/22/2014Play, play, play. Like, like, like. Delete. 😔
9/20/2014There's a difference between hard difficulty and 'I Want To Throw My Phone At A Wall' difficulty. Right now, it's the latter. I understand the game is supposed to be hard but when gravity is not cooperating properly by pushing/pulling you away/towards a planet gets annoying REALLY fast. Let's not forget about the camera. I'd rather the game camera be locked onto the raddid so that I can actually SEE which way I am facing and where I'm flying to; not where I'm flying from. I'm hoping the next update (IF there is one) will have those fixed (mainly the screen panning).
9/16/2014Nice game <3
9/15/2014Rabbids are cure but gameplay is average.
9/9/2014Fun game, but the camera sucks big time. How am I supposed to control the rabbit when it's off camera most of the time. I ain't no psychic to know in what direction the rabbit is headed when I don't see him
9/6/2014Love rabbids and love this game

I'm mental… Totally and completly insane!
Seeing him for just a brief moment has made me crazy: again, I'm trying to find any possible way of contacting him, without actual contact; otherwise, I'm breaking my vow.
I shouldn't have ever meet him. Unfortunatly, I'm not sure, who HE is: the old one, I can't left behind, or the new one I'm committed to.
God! I'm so furious!
I've never been this angry in my entire life!
Dream brother, my killer, my lover.
I don't want this conversation to end, because I know that after all, I'll think of HIM, and about you, of course, but not today, not after all, what happend today…
I don't want to feel guilt and sadness. I don't want HIM to leave my life, but you asked me to cut HIM out.
I didn't think of HIM at all, but now I'm thinking… and crying.. and cutting my skin, because I don't want to be without HIM by my side. Silent, but close.
I love you, I do.
I loved HIM, now I am with you.
But I want HIM to be in my life. It's not possible now, of course. Not after what you've done.
I love you, I love you! I really do love you!
But I want HIM in my life. Because I know HIM too good, too long, to just let it go…
Guilt never lies
The fear. The nevrending fear of loosing something, you craved, you desired for such a long time and what just appeared to be yours.
The neverending nightmare, comming true.

I would like people to stop running my relationship telling me when I can n can't get married or then start a family it's really annoying that you have that much pull on someone they can't decide for themselves
Why do people try to interject into a relationship?? Granted your looking out for him, but telling him when he should do something? How long he should wait? Making an oblivious statement that I am not cut out to handle your deployment? Really…. I'm willing to drop everything, leave my friends, my family, everything I love to move to be closer to him… And you don't think I have what it takes? I've been through a lot worse and I'm still standing stronger then ever!!! I am willing to prove you wrong and I will!! I will show you that I am string enough

Reports suggested earlier today that the Cleveland Indians were receiving interest from multiple teams on shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera, but the team wasn't sure if they were going to end up pulling the trigger on a deal. The Indians have indeed made a move, sending the 28 year old to the Washington Nationals in exchange for infielder Zach Walters.
Cabrera is expected to slide over to second base for the Nationals, given the presence of Ian Desmond at shortstop. Cabrera does have experience at the position, but hasn't played there since the 2009 season.
A free agent at season's end, Cabrera is batting .246/.305/.386 on the year in 416 plate appearances.
The move is an instant boost for the Nationals' infield while Ryan Zimmerman remains on the sidelines with a hamstring injury. Installing Cabrera at second allows the team to leave Anthony Rendon at third and gives the team a strong infield across the board as they try to hang onto their lead in the NL East.
The Indians will receive Walters in the deal, who scouts have had mixed reviews on to date. He's naturally a shortstop but has seen time at second and third base as well. Cleveland is seemingly high on him, as they are paying all of Cabrera's remaining salary this season. Walters has spent most of the season at Triple-A, but has appeared in 32 games for the Nationals this season. In 43 plate appearances he's hit .205/.279/.462.
He'll report to Triple-A Columbus initially, but could join the Indians' major league roster before long.

Opinion: Yes, we can trust Obama to do right by international law
Readers' comments (3)
It is a fantastic article on legal ethics or philosophy which America's newly elected President would like to follow. I personally feel Obama's decision would not be unitary like Bush.It would be more plural based on democratic norms. For he believes in welfare of mass, has respect towards legal process. I feel that though his wife would not be holding any position in his administration, being a successful and well reputed attorney she would be available to help articulate his thoughts.
My Congratulations to Alex.
Liberal ideologues
You do not appear to consider that the liberal members of the Supreme Court are ideologues. I can assure you that they are. I can also assure you that the attempts of the Supreme Court to overrule the considered decisions of the democratically elected government (federal and state) are bringing the law and the legal profession into disrepute.

I am gifting a Lodge cast iron pan this holiday, and curious if anyone has a rec for a good cookbook to accompany this gift? Thanks in advance!
I have enjoyed the recipes in "The Cast Iron Skillet Cookbook: Recipes For The Best Pan In Your Kitchen"
I immediately thought of David Eyre's pancake for a cast-iron skillet. What about The NYT Essential Cookbook? I have it and really think it's outstanding.
Well played.
You deserve a cookie.
