Short distance + short track = absolute chaos

I don’t know who should come off but Celebrini should be on the 1st PP with McDavid.

I’m not usually this guy but I wish they would hire an editor. This headline states that the semifinal would be against Czechia not that this game is against Czechia. An easy fix, although perhaps a little clumsy, would say β€œFacing Czechia Canada Looks To Punch Ticket To Semifinals”.

What does it mean that β€œit’s not an issue?” Surely, we want more offense in the game and just because other leagues can make it work doesn’t mean it would in the NHL. College basketball uses a 30 second shot clock but that doesn’t mean I want to NBA to adopt it.

Goalies playing the puck in the corner dramatically slows down the game though. It essentially adds a 3rd dman to break up a forecheck and you aren’t allowed to touch them.

It must be nice for all the rest of the Canadians to be able to cheer for McDavid for a change. He really is a treat to cheer for every game.

I read 5 books of yours last year so I’m excited for this one.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: the stage of the Jerry Springer show with an audience watching. A peeved looking person sits in a chair. Jerry Springer stands next to him and says, β€œwe have with us: your ancestor who crawled out of the ocean 375 million years ago!” Panel 2: the incensed audience boos loudly. Panel 3: security attempts to break out a fistfight between the onstage guest and a prehistoric fish, the Tiktaalik.

His β€œdefense” of his stance doesn’t even defend his position and in fact provides multiple points of reference for the other side. Shouting β€œcontext matters” is not a defense for your hate.

All 3 were the fault of the dmen.

Walman with the absolutely egregious line change. Embarrassing decision by a vet.

He’s fast, strong and has a great shot and the lesser responsibility would free him up to be offensive minded, plus he would be a beast on the forecheck.

lol at Sourdif with the 2nd star with 1G and 1A and McDavid being 3rd with 2G and 3A.

lol at the parting of the seas for Bouch. He is not the guy you want stepping in for a wide open wrister.

I don’t mind putting an underperforming d-man at forward and in fact I think Nurse could be an exceptional winger.

They always play different when they aren’t nervous about every mistake costing them.

I thought all along that Bellinger would be their guy so I still have hope.

Yeah he’s like 52nd for gsax/60. Why would anyone want that unless they see real value in experience.

Yeah against Switzerland in Vancouver.

It looks like a garish government building, so, I guess it’s perfect for Washington.

My favourite band, City and Colour, played at a 600 seat venue in Banff and part of it was used for a live double album.

Also, 2 weeks earlier than any of the other days.

That certainly matches the eye test although Skinner’s is higher than I would’ve expected.
