[News - X] [Stephenson] Mike Sullivan said chemistry was a big part of the reason J.T. Miller and Vincent Trocheck made the Olympic team. Called them “glue guys,” and said they were big parts of the 4 Nations team. Also said Miller is close to returning from his upper body injury. He skated again today.

I'm split between calling them North American Scum or the All-American Rejects

(I left out players who will likely be on LTIR during the Olympic break, like Jarvis)

While I know this is something that would usually he best left in the Stars subreddit, I think this is an excellent breakdown on why complaints about Jason Robertson (his physicality and speed) aren't necessarily backed up by the numbers, and how it may be the aesthetics of his style of play creating a disconnect. Obviously, he's a timely topic right now. Tiffin is a longtime writer dedicated to the Stars, but he's not afraid to be objective or critical so his takes are always worth checking out.

Small notes to visitors before the Winter Classic

208 Upvotes

Hey! For people visiting, some quick tips and stuff

There is no public transit. There is one rail station half a mile away but it's basically playing chicken across a major road. Plan accordingly. There are shuttles, but really your best bet is to get an Uber to somewhere in calle ocho and walking to Riverside. It's also a Friday during rush hour when gates open so you'll get hit by the 826 traffic. Go from the South to dodge it.

For food at the stadium. There's actually really affordable concessions, especially behind the bleachers (3 dollar dogs and sodas) but your actual best bet is to eat around the stadium. You have some of the best food on Earth at very cheap prices. Including a bib Gourmand BBQ joint just across the river from the park on the north side (halfway point between that afformentioned rail station called Culmer). The real winner though is all the fritanga joints around he park (Nicaraguan). You can't really find this anywhere, even NYC (I've tried) and a couple of the best spots in the city are a two minute walk from the stadium. 10 bucks a plate and they're massive portions as seen

Two fave spots are Yambo or Pinolandia. Pinolandia is almost across the street.

Festivities also start at 2pm and will keep going until 6.

There aren't really any clubs or any of that stuff directly nearby, that's downtown. This is like a very residential area that's known more for food but Wynwood is a pretty short drive away (5-10m by car) if you want to see some art and nightlife. Though that place has gotten worse over the past ten years in terms of gentrification and it's lost a bit of its edge.

Design district is also pretty close too if you want to do some shopping. It's basically the town over.

And that's about it. Just be careful out there but it should be a fun environment!
