hmmm hey guys just thought of an idea.. we could have a Neogathering for a game at the ACC sometime? It could possibly work! And obviously Leafs vs Habs games are pretty much brutal.. but it's always fun!.

Go Sharks! :)

I really like the Sharks this year. Unlike in years past, their defense this year looks promising. Sharks were always a good team but on paper they didn't have any real standouts in any single position outside of Thornton and maybe Nabokov.

Boyle and Blake should be good additions. The only real question mark in SJ is their offense. If Michalek and Cheechoo can take it to the next level, Marleau plays like Marleau should and we see some much needed depth in Pavelski, I think they'll be legitimate contenders and not just playoff fodder.

Montreal picked up Lang and as expected is out of the Sundin running. Another good grab, but nothing to throw a party over. That said, it is another 20 goal scorer to add to the roster and that is nothing to be dissapointed about.

Isn't this the time of year that Leafs fans say that this year we're going to go all the way?

/me hides now.

As I've said before, my hope for this season is a high draft pick. I think I'll get my wish. Sure, I'd be happy if they make the playoffs but either get in or come last. DO NOT COME IN 9TH or 10TH PLACE!!! (again)

Canucks name Luongo captain wtf!! Now no one wears a C, that's ridiculous.

I hate Mike Gillis :(

Even though they say otherwise, I still think they did it because they are worried he might want to leave as Gillis has done absolutely nothing for your team in the off season.

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      I think the car analogy is more this: Left hand drive, basic commands on the left side of the infotainment screen. Right hand drive, basic commands on the right side of the infotainment screen. Granted, you're not swapping between the two often so it's doesn't really work. But it's to do with the proximity of you (your mouse, or the driver) to the controls.

      I mean, the old one was broken and so stupidly complex for many users, so I don't see that as a feasible option. A context menu needs to be simple to use, and for me the Windows 11 style actually worked really well for me, and many others. I used to have to scroll the damn context menu just to get to "file properties" in Windows 10. That was not a good experience, and I'm sure you'd agree. What they're trying to do is make it the best of both worlds, as clearly you'd prefer the Win10 style. I'm curious how they're going to do this.

      The "Show more options" has its place, as does the simpler context menu, but it should perhaps be a separate fly-out rather than relaunching the entire, old context menu. The old context menu was getting absurd in Windows 10. Often I'd have to make the context menu scroll just to get to "File properties" on my old laptop. Even without much installed, the amount of items was just too much. It's a context menu, not a "do all" menu. Making it configurable is fraught with challenges too, so I'm interested to see how Microsoft tackles this one.

      I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
