Official NHL 2005-2006 Playoff Thread


Recommended Posts

Great news!

I opened my web browser for a reason and then I got distracted. It was bugging me that I couldn't remember the purpose. So, I went of to Neowin because that is usually what I do when I have a browser open and I saw this thread. Then, of course, I remembered why I opened the browser in the first place. I was intending to go to NHL.com to see what happened.

Its a bit of a funny coincidence that edmonton wiped out anaheim 4-1, who white washed colorado 4-0 who beat dallas 4-1. Does that mean that Calorlina of Buffalo are going to win by the same margin? :whistle:

well, it appears finishing fast can definitely cause problems.

edmondton will take it to 7, whoever it is...

Carolina will win. They were going to win regardless but since Buffalo lost three key defensemen it's going to be hard for them to win the series and then continue to the cup. I'm calling Carolina to win this and Carolina win it in 6 games for the Cup.

I hope that Edmonton wins. I think they have been playing pretty good, plus, Canada needs one of our teams to win the cup sometime soon. Calgary almost got it 2 years ago, hopefully Edmonton gets it this time. Rolly the goalie has been doing pretty good, let a few easy ones threw, but still doing pretty good.

Well tough luck for the Sabres tonight as Carolina advances. I say tough luck because Buffalo would have won this series as easily as they did against Ottawa. Too bad that 4 of their 6 defensement were out with injuries, and their top centerman too. Just an unlucky series of events. But hey, theres always next year.

In the begining of the season people pegged buffalo to miss the playoffs and be another disaster. With their low-low salary I could venture and guess that Buffalo will have no problems retaining key players. I think this years salary was only $29m; $10m less than the cap. Next season the cap should jump to 43-46. Buffalo is going to have a great club in the future.

$1157.60 in tickets.

3x Game 5, Section 116, Row 2 = $890.75

And just in case

2x Game 7, Section 336, Row who cares, it's upper level already = $266.85

I wanted to get at least one game with really good seats, and then I decided to get some Game 7 tickets too, just in case. I figured IF we do go to Game 7, I DEFINATELY want to be there, but I didn't have as much to spend becauase of the Game 5 tickets so upper level works, as long as I'm there and screaming my fool head off :D.

Plus I plan on going to the arena every away game to watch with the rest of the fans, assuming they do that again this year. They did in 2002, but I haven't heard anything official yet. I'll have to ask my friend who works at the RBC Center.

    • For the purpose that it was built for, it’s a great machine. It’s okay to own multiple machines, it’s okay for machines to be different. If every computer was the same, they’d be boring af.
    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
