talk about emphasizing how weird the last couple of years have been. Studio guys said "defending cup champions start their defense of it tonight"

My brain spent a bunch of time churning trying to figure out who won last year. Then once I realized that nobody won it last year..... I couldn't for the life of me remember who won it in 2019.


Umm.... 


 wait.  Never mind.  Wow.  I'm clearly not awake today.

Actually, now that I'm thinking about it (much easier to think when there's only one of everything, not two!), we really don't need to eliminate the easy dabs if we add in more difficult dabs and increase the overall square total.

Hard to get 40+ different things, but how about this so slant the cards towards the home team a bit more?   

"Home Team leads after 1",

"Game tied after 1 (not 0-0 score)",

"Home Team leads after 2",

"Game tied after 2",  (could be 0-0, doesn't happen too often)

 

"Goal free period (not 0-0 score)",

"Home team beat the icing",

"Net knocked off moorings",

"Thorny player being thorny",

"Penalty called while one being served",  (5 on 3 or 4-4 for remainder of 1st pen)

"LOL that was funny (game incident)",

'Remove "one goal game" and not replaced 


Generic "beat the icing" might be easier, but otherwise looks good. I've got two relatively naked cards right now though so adding more difficulty could really give us feast-or-famine bingo.

I want to re-dab yesterday's game with these squares, Andy swallowed by net = double dab.

There's a fine line between "Amazing {something}!" and "What the hell was that?"

 True.  But at the same time, it gets hard to keep track of the options after awhile


Pfft, you missed my earlier post...I'm taking the list of squares and going all #DataScience on them, tagging them by scenario. By Game 7 of the Finals, I will have this LOCKED.

Can we come up with a generic version of "McDavid does something McDavitty"? Or how about a "pest being a pest" square?


 We do have the Amazing Goal and also Amazing assist, which can count as a "McDavid does something McDavitty"

Maybe add a "Chuckie would be impressed" or "Chuckie is taking notes".


 "Chuckie is jealous"

If only to block potential bingos at this point.

Double minor square?


 I was thinking about that one. 


 Would be when it results in 4 min PP and not one player gets 4 and player on other team gets 2?


Hmm, are there a lot of double-roughings in playoffs? But I guess 4min PP pretty much conveys the same intent. And, just so we're clear on the semantics, 4min PP **assessed**. evileye
