yup - just go with a plot-line whereby the First Order starts building another Starkiller base that's fully operational and have its power shield be on a forest moon inhabited by cute little furry creatures and boom, great story line.

sorry, I hadn't seen this before I posted. Yup, totally had the same experience.

one thing that bugged me (yes I sweat the small stuff) during that entire extraneous plot line where Rose (a character that didn't need to be created in the first place) and Finn were letting the horse things go from the stable, Finn said "we have to hurry before the cops get here" of something like that. "Cops"? They have that word in Star Wars? And how would Finn know it, being an ex Storm Trooper. Are we ever going to find out where Finn came from? Does anyone care?

just came back from seeing the movie and I believe that there were replies coming in. I fully expected Lando to show up, but that was just me being nostalgic for Billy Dee.

broken collarbone or?

Canada was really undisciplined out there. That game was there for the taking and instead they piss it away with really stupid penalties.

That was just shitty hockey. I really hope this idiotic playing outdoors fad is almost over.

this mob blows...

Roslo with Wheelers and Connor. Done. Ha ha and now I am going to buy $5,000 of lotto tickets and bet on Belarus to win the WJC.

how dare it get cold in December!

I wonder if Migs is still enjoying his Kia Forte.

I haven't seen a goalie like that until Kelly Rudy and Grant Fewer.

he skated around a lot without getting a point, and yet was named player of the game. That's quite an accomplishment! Very Armia-like for sure!

well the Finns do have Vesalainen so that's a huge advantage for sure. Watching him out there he did remind me of Armia. Big kid!

didn't he play for the allah akbars or something?

really? I hadn't heard that. I think the US is the team to beat. And we won't do it with this team.

and also the message we learned from Clarence in "It's a Wonderful Life": No man is a failure who has friends. Happy New Year everyone!

missing Buff anyway....

I'd rather Peluso than Thorbs myself (and Buff over both), even if just for a few shifts to go out there and set the tone.

I really felt that that game last night was one where we missed Buff out there. I doubt Nashville would have been so dirty and pulling all of the cheap shots knowing that 260lb Buff was lurking waiting to take their heads off. At the very least Buff would have had a very serious chat with Mr. Subban about his deliberate intent to injure attempts on Scheif. And that other guy Yanick what's his name. Total tool. Combine no Buff, dirty team, and a really shitty ref and you've got what we had last night. What a satisfying win though after all of that BS and garbage reffing. Couldn't believe that Rinne opened up a hole bigger than the Grand Canyon between his legs on the Tanev goal.

I was watching the TSN3 feed. I just can't get into US announcers and hockey. Unless Rod Black starts calling hockey games.
