NHL 15: Philly Flyers Regular Season Part 2(Year 4)

After a trade deadline that saw Bo Horvat and Matt Dumba join the Philly Flyers, we finish the regular season in today's post. Will we be playoff bound? Stay tuned!

After acquiring Dumba and Horvat, I did have some concern that the team might struggle with the new players. That concern was quickly put to bed as we finished an excellent fourth season with a record of 48-28-6, good for 102 points, the fifth-best record in the league and the best record in the Metropolitan Division. For the first time in the series, we have made the playoffs and we did so in style with the division win, not bad for a team that spent the past two years in the cellar. We improved our points total from the previous year by 24 points. We scored 225 goals, actually six less than last year, but only conceded 207, 45 goals less than Year 3. I was very pleased with our drastic defensive improvement, and I know our goals tally will go up, as most of our forwards are either young up and comers or older players who have no business on a first place team. We still have some very good forward prospects coming, so the goals will come in the future. We also had some problems with injuries that hopefully shouldn't bother us in the future. Here are the end of season team leaders.

 Goals: Jakub Voracek, 34
Assists: Oliver Ekman-Larsson, 40
Plus/Minus: Anthony Duclair, +14
PIMS: Ryan Reaves, 143
Wins: Jack Campbell, 27

Below is the link to the end of season stats:

Both Jack Campbell and Claude Giroux struggled with injuries again, but if they stay healthy during the playoffs, we have a legitimate chance of a deep playoff run. See you next time, when we enter the playoffs.

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...

American Dad "Stompe Le Monde" Review

You know, I once tried to make it in musical theater. If only I had watched this episode beforehand, I would've known I needed a leather jacket to truly make it. Alas, those dreams are for a more pretentious soul than mine. "Stompe Le Monde" is a wild episode of American Dad, one that starts with Stan's previously unknown uncle dying and ends with wanton destruction of many Sonic Drive-Ins. It's a crazy a journey as it sounds, one that left me just struggling to keep up. The family to use the new inheritance to travel to New York City, but Stan quickly blows the money on the rights to Stomp, which is apparently a real musical. The whole town of Langley is very excited to see the new show, but Stan has no idea what he's doing, never once hiring a director or even rehearsing. Why this only came up literally minutes before opening is anyone's guess. The Smith Family is forced to go on the run, and are attacked by many ferocious coyotes off-screen. In ye...

American Dad "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" Review

American Dad as a show is definitely not afraid to get a little freaky, and nothing is more evident than the existence of Rogu, Roger's tumor that became a character himself in "Persona Assistant". Rogu primarily works as a character because he stays in the background, but this week, he takes a starring role in one of the weirdest American Dad episodes to date. "The Hand that Rocks the Rogu" has little in the way of traditional plot structure, and can only barely be considered an episode at all. It's more a collection of funny and bizarre skits, with a few running plot points that end up forming some sort of resolution. Steve wants to become a babysitter, but Francine says he's not ready, so he needs to prove himself to her. He does that by taking care of Rogu, as Roger is off for a night of NSFW activities. Steve is instructed not to let Rogu have candy or screentime, but violates both rules almost immediately. It turns out that Rogu multiplies w...
