[Official] NHL 2010/2011


Recommended Posts

^^ Yeah watched that game (have NHL Centre Ice package) and the Leafs are just sad.

Their forwards are just terrible, Colby Armstrong at $3M??? Wow, good job Burke, he's a glorified grinder and missed that open net in the 3rd period.

give colby a break with the salary though. the way he played last season he deserves 3. it's just that if you go to that **** hole, you are not going to play well.

Canucks win again. Only one regulation loss in the month of December. DAYAM!! :woot:

TBH they didn't exactly play too well tonight, but Schneider was huge for them with 44 saves and they got some lucky goals. They didn't really deserve to win but we'll take it. Worst I've seen them play in a long time though. Hopefully they will turn it around on Sunday.

I saw Alex Kovalev get dropped in our fantasy league and my first reaction was to put in a waiver claim. Then I looked at his stats this season and he really isn't pulling much fantasy weight this year. Granted, Ottawa has had a bit of a rough season (not quite Toronto rough but not that far off either) but still...

I also noticed that Yahoo hadn't predicted him to rank that highly either so I'm gathering that his near 38 years has been catching up with him.

A big win last night vs the Kings for the Leafs. 3-2.

And it gets weirder. The Leafs beat San Jose. That means that they have won 5 out of 6 and, since their one loss was their lone home game, that means they are on a 5 game road winning streak.

They have also matched their 4 game winning streak that they used to start the season. I guess Ron Wilson's job is safe for another few weeks.

^^ Seems like a lot of people are. I thought that winter classic this year was so boring it was almost unbearable. We had a whole bunch of ppl over at my friends place and everyone was just... bored.

I understand what they are trying to do, but when you are out side and it's ABOVE freezing temperatures... Then you get a slow, terrible, hockey game.

Just my .02 on it...

January 1st in Toronto would be dicey enough but when they start to host it in places further south then you can't expect much from the ice conditions. When they first concocted this thing they located it in Edmonton but that's a lot further north.

Is there a rule of some kind that it has to be at New Years? Couldn't they have it at a colder time of year? I dunno, that may be stupid I just wish the ice was PLAYABLE! :p

I've seen all the Winter Classics, and I just haven't enjoyed watching any of them. I think that some people really enjoy watching that type of hockey because they grew up playing outdoor hockey. In BC that's not the case and rarely did I ever get to play pond hockey because it's generally quite mild in Vancouver (I'm sure most ppl know that).

Anyways, a lot of people like it so I'm happy about that, it's just that every year I'm expecting a good game, and there hasn't been one, except for maybe Crosby's shootout winner last time. Although the game was hardly playable that time anyways...

I don't think Wilson is going anywhere lol. But yeah, the Leafs did beat San Jose at the shark tank last night. It was also Wilson's 600th Win.

Well there is still one more.. the Heritage Classic.. I wonder if that's going to be the same thing. At least last time when the Pens played at the Winter Classic, they actually broadcasted the whole thing. CBC screwed up.

And the rollercoaster ride for the avs continues. One day we beat Detroit 5-4 the next we lose to Chicago 4-0, it would be nice if we could string a few win together...

i love watching your team play, they are honestly maybe my third fave team (used to love them because of patrick roy was there). the team is still learning. a couple of more seasons they'll be a dominant force, just got to bulk up that defense a bit.

Both Canadian teams that suited up last night were out scored by a total of 13-0. That's something more to laugh about.

How about those reports though of Nabokov getting signed by Detroit. Who do you think is gonna pick him up on waivers? I think if they sign him to a one or two year deal worth $3-$4mil or less, someone else will claim him. Anything more and they'll leave him.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
