Like trying to start an old Buick when your Lambo is purring in the garage.

ZACHY RUNS THE SHOW NOW!

No ragging on McDavo’s cord!

Someone’s probably posted this already but it gave me a good laugh

DJ, play “I Will Remember You” by Sarah McLachlan.

Before the trade today, the Devils had Nico Hischier, Nico Daws, and Dawson Mercer. With the pre-trade roster, there were 16 letters across player names that matched either "Nico" or "Daws" (counting "Daws" as a substring of "Dawson").

In an ADHD and likely autism-inspired side quest, I then counted every letter in every player's first and last name to see how much of the team's total name-letter pool was represented by "Nico" and "Daws."

There were 281 total letters in names pre-trade with 16 of those letters being "nico" and "daws" (5.69%) and 277 total letters in names post-trade with 4 letters being "nico" or "daws. After the trades, those letters account for 1.44%.

That's a 74.64% reduction in the Devils' Nico/Daws name-letter density.

Have a good day.
