until he sleeps with Scheifele's sister and gets his ass kicked....(reference: rumor that Drai slept with Nurse's sister, causing locker-room strife and an ass-kicking from Nurse)

watching Trouba talk in this interview made me think of this:

not sure what video you are referencing? where was Scheifele's facial reaction? Drinking game - take a shot every time Wheeler says "You know".

Throw in a kitten and I'm good.

it's not about being ok with 2019. It's about the $8.5 million we'll be paying him in 2024.

I regretted it before the ink was dry. Also regretting Wheeler too.

I can agree with this.

ok thanks Rich. Now put in context I am a bit more empathetic. Paul Friesen is just such a ******.

Does someone have a link to this?

Dallas Eakins come on down!

Trade Trouba, let Myers go to free agency. Time for some of the kids to step up, Niku, Samberg, Stanley. I don't know what Buff was smoking the last two games, but he was just not there mentally. Watching him slide helplessly out of the play haplessly trying to defend a two on one on the third goal reminded me of watching my nephew's bantam team. Just not good enough, but Buff is an enigma. I don't know what to do there. Sign Connor and Laine to long term contracts. Those two guys are our future. I was pretty frustrated with Laine during the season, but in the playoffs he was one of the few guys who showed up and played hard. He's a guy that can take the playoff pounding, and give as good as he gets. Ehlers - I think I am done with that guy. Won't cry if he gets traded in a package with Trouba. Two playoffs now show how ineffective a little guy like him is in the playoffs. He can get us there, but he won't produce in the rough and tumble. Reminds me of the Sedins that way. Hellebuyck - redeemed himself for Game 2. I am good with him. Wheeler - I really am starting to not like that guy very much. I don't know totally why. I just don't see him as a leader. He seems to be getting Andrew Ladd syndrome - believing his own BS. I won't cry if he gets traded. Random thoughts...

Brainfart kids. Much more accurate.

Had we gone to the third round the year before?

perhaps if she hadn't antagonized them by calling them "baskets of deplorables", they might have been more sympathetic. That was a brilliant move to show that she wasn't an elitist. I still say that by far the biggest mistake Hillary made was posting this tweet a week before the election: How can you be so stunningly non-self-aware that this would come off as arrogant and elitist?

This statement by Mark and Rich's comment about Trump's aids not doing what he asked really tweaked what I had already been thinking. Trump's got a road-map to follow, laid down for him by our own government here in Canada, who essentially is caught in the same kind of quagmire (did Trudeau break the law? If his aides didn't do what he asked, is that mean he's off the hook? Did he commit obstruction?). There was a huge out-cry here in Canada too, and the Trudeau Liberals have just been saying "nothing to see here" and changing the subject, hoping everyone will just forget about LavScam and the potential malfeasance committed. Can Trump get away with the same strategy? Granted Trudeau and Trump operate differently. Trump just doesn't care, and says so, while Trudeau tries to play the sanctimony card. But the strategy is the same - just deny, ignore, lie, spin, and hope it goes away in time for the next election. I am not saying that Trump would have acted differently if he didn't already have the Trudeau model to follow, but he does have a precedent now to follow, set by our own gang of lying slime right here in Canada.

I was thinking the same thing, but then there is a lot to digest. And there was a Jets game last night. I have been watching CNN, and my take is that a lot of Democrats are reluctant to proceed to impeachment, despite a lot of goading from Wolf, Chris, Jake and Don. May be smarter to just use in the upcoming election as impeachment is pretty tough even with a smoking gun.

I don't know what planet Buff was on last night but it wasn't Earth. Just staggering.

I can't stand the Oiler guy. Prefer Beyak.

Not really. All he's done is offer a differing opinion.
