Yeah, some folks were saying MTL got their asses handed to them, but I agree with Dan. Short-to-mid term it helps MTL, as I also think Weber is better....maybe not as offensively gifted, but he still has one hell of a shot. His contract dollars are a bit smaller, but they go until he's 40. There's something with the rules in that MTL wouldn't get penalized ("recapture cap hit") if he retires early, it may actually be Nashville (?). Didn't look into or understand that. But bottom line, I agree it makes them a bit better now and for the next few. Now MTL needs to get more scoring, and have Price stay healthy. Not sure how well Subban will fit in Nashville. He'll be replacing somewhat of a hero, and not sure they'll like him as much (fans and teammates alike; Subban has a reputation of being intense and not as much a locker room guy). Time will tell; he may be fine without the attention that the MTL market has on it. As for the Bruins....meh.....they will be good again, some nice depth in prospects. But unless they do something in trade or FA, next year will suck as well.

Admit it, it was the online racing setup..... Again, sorry to hear, but as Stretch said, shoe games and all that.....

I really don't get it....I've heard Cavalli amps 4 times @ 3 different shows. Granted show conditions, but each time other amps at the same show sounded better to me. Don't any of these people have access to other amps?! The latest was at the recent Spring NY meet. Dan (MrSpeakers) was displaying his prototype electrostatics with a BHSE, and one of his Ether's with a Cavalli amp. One of the 2 stats sounded promising to me (the other sounded a bit glaring and congested). I went over to listen to the Ether on Cavalli, and it was a bit dull & lifeless, with a frequency response that did not sound balanced at all. I have heard the Ether sound a lot better.... Same thing happened with my own Senn 600's a few years back at the same NY meet. They did not sound as good out of the Cavalli amp that Yikes had as with several other (cheaper) amps at the same show. Heck, my own cheap setup, forgot exactly what it was at the time, sounded better to me. I am no expert at the tech side, so I leave that critique to those who are. But sometimes a lousy design can still SOUND half decent, at least for a period until something goes bad. But to me, these just did not. I haven't heard the LC so can't comment there, but jeez.....I just don't get the enthusiasm.....

Ouch! Sorry to hear Jeff....on all accounts!

My bad on music history, I had heard his name and never really knew who he was. An amazing resume and history@! RIP Mr. Moore.

RIP, an amazing woman. Also RIP to Buddy Ryan, who was coaching (not head coach) on two great NFL teams: the Jets that won the Super Bowl with Joe Namath, and the Bears that dominated in 86. Rob and Rex are decent defensive coaches, but Buddy was in another class IMO.

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday!!

RIP Funk-man....another great one....another cancer....

Agreed. Same with Dell & Toshiba in my experience as well.....

^^^ Just read about that, RIP to an original!!

From reading, it sounds like the new ones are better-sounding; the praise seems pretty much unanimous, thinking beyond FOTM type of enthusiasm. I'm definitely going to get a pair (most likely the SR's), but yeah if I can avoid retail cost somehow I'll do that. Sale, or using my gift balance @ Amazon....not in a rush.

Thanks Haj. I'll likely get the new ones anyway, I really like what I'm reading about them; and I'll keep my older 4P's for a backup. I may wait and see if they go on Amazon soon, I have a gift card credit from Father's Day!

Somewhat similar, though I'm probably more "wait and see" as opposed to full skeptic.

Happy Birthday!

RIP Anton, so tragic.....

I like Dan, and I heard the Electrostatic prototypes at the NY meet. One was blech, the other showed some good promise I'd say. But yeah, if he's suggesting this, not the best idea....

Happy Birthday Kerry, hope it's a fantastic day! Doug beat me to the punch(line)

Very sad, such a beautiful and caring young lady by all accounts, truly trying to do good in the world. I'm sometimes quite sad and scared for the world we are leaving our children.....

Sorry to you and those that cared for Kim....and for all those affected by this shit. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Meh..... I guess I'm not surprised, and they DID play well. The one thing that still sucks is Crosby winning the Conn-Smythe trophy. No goals in this series, and a -2 overall for the entire playoffs. Definitely others on the team deserved it more. But the legend has to be built....! Still love that the Penguins' own fan magazine screwed up his name once on their cover:

How do you stop this shit? I saw a brief news flash this morning, just read more now that I'm back home. Just so fucking sad and horrific!

Nicely done! Brent needs to work on his penmanship and spacing for name tags though

Oh, wow.....not unexpected at all, he had gone downhill pretty badly. But yet another icon gone in 2016..... RIP Mr. Hockey.

Wow.....I think the Bruins traded the wrong goalie! Actually, Jones would have sucked behind our horrid defense this year..... Go Sharks!
