The Wire Troll: Brandon Dubinsky Tearing it Up in February

The former second round pick is currently playing outstanding hockey. In Calgary, Dvorak scored twice as part of a three-point game, going +3 in a shutout victory over the Flames. Then, on Thursday against the Los Angeles Kings, he picked up an assist, and once again was a +3 in another win. In the month of February, Dvorak has scored eight points (five goals, three assists) while going +5. He’s averaging about 16 minutes, but recently his ice time has increased, since he is being used on the power play more often.

The Wire Troll: Alex Len is Rising in Phoenix

Of course, the other dude that stands to benefit from Jackson being shipped out is Smith. Given that he’s got a long-term contract, Smith might be handed the keys to the offense in Detroit, but again — either way — he’s in line for a boost in PT. Even as the backup, he’s developed some nice chemistry and at times has done a better job than Jackson of running the Piston attack. Smith has put up double-digit scoring efforts in four of the last five games despite getting over 21 minutes of action just once. That’s efficiency, people. So imagine what he’d do with a consistent 25 to 30 minutes.

Blu-ray Review: Beavis and Butt-Head: The Complete Collection

Despite its age and the simplicity of the animation, the series still delivers some laughs. Not all of the episodes are gems, and certainly the lack of music videos hurts (more on that later), but Beavis and Butt-Head have lost little of their simple charm over the years. The supporting cast is better than we remembered it as well.

Video Game Review: Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue

Final Chapter Prologue sits at an odd point in time. It is out on PS4 a couple of months before the other collection that includeS the games that set up the stories in this one. And so right out the gate it is hard to recommend this as a point of entry for people that are new to the series. Even as someone that had played most of the games prior to this, we found some of the storyline elements borderline incomprehensible.
