  1. Congrats Ortenzio. Nothing against dynasty bob, but it's nice to see one of the good guys doing well.
  2. Get it from my wife Wayne. Lol. Kidding.
  3. http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/why-it-pays-to-finish-fourth-in-the-jam-packed-metro-division Interesting take by ken on how winning down the stretch might not be to your teams advantage. Sidebar: players will NEVER tank.
  4. Brutal. http://news.nationalpost.com/sports/nhl/former-edmonton-oilers-forward-ryan-smyth-takes-flying-elbow-to-head-in-senior-hockey-playoff-game
  5. rubber mixing spatula. Gets every last bit.
  6. I'm screwed w my girl. Sandra Diaz will get th axe faster than a 700 y ar old redwood w trump running the EPA
  7. okay cool. Don't remember doing it, but I'm old! Thanks!
  8. Jim Rutherford is the Donald Trump of hockey. He just added defensive depth and got two other teams to pay for it.
  9. throw emelin out there on D and you'd have the nhls 'most likely to get penalized in the first 10 seconds of a shift' champion.
  10. Montreal trades subban because of 'character issues' and then trades forOtt. Character is Ott, Shaw, and Evelin. Got it.
  11. I think a big part of the bishop trade was as a blocker. They also gain from not having him traded to a WC rival.
  12. If you're just going to skate casually, go to a used sporting goods store and buy two pairs. Shouldn't cost you more than the price of that shock doctor brace. Used skates are broken in and more comfortable anyway. If you're not going to be slamming on the brakes at full speed, you don't need good skates anyway, and you'll get a much higher quality skate used than new.
  13. Governments will never be run like a business. Because the principal goal of every government is to get re-elected. Toronto is a perfect example. There hasn't been a single politician in the past 40 years that doesn't understand the infrastructure of this city is ****ed. But launching a Boston Dig sized project requires long term planning ad expenditure. And chickenshit politicians don't want to the elected official that spent the money that will increase taxes for current residents without seeing a concrete outcome in the very near future.
  14. how much different is this from mcsorley/brashear?
  15. The big question: can the red hot Steelheads catch the slumping Big Ms?
  16. Heavy Rescue Squad 331. Beaten up, soaked, and with bellies full of smoke. Best job in the world.
  17. theres still heavy fire. Trapped heat and big fuel loads made this a tough fire. We brought in a demolition excavator to tear open the roof so we could get at the fire better. This one will still be burning when the sun comes up. But we did some great work not to lose the whole block, especially with how tight the exposure buildings are.
  18. a couple of guys with minor injuries. A fire like that beats the hell out of you. Literally like being punched for 8 hours. We were lucky today....
