    We don’t actually know she wasn’t there. So far she has denied that any evidence of her being there. I’m going to bet she was. 

    x2. We all know there's no such thing as an honest politician.

    Announcement today at 12:30 about new restriction in Manitoba. What's frustrating about that to me is that there was a large rally of anti maskers at the Forks yesterday but no enforcement to be seen.

    They should start off today's press conference by listing the names and addresses of everyone that attended the Forks rally yesterday. Then after they've announced the new restrictions they can say "If you want to complain about this, go see those people".

    Leafs without Matthews or Nylander are a different animal, but I'm enjoying making Campbell and Rittich look like assholes... 

    Wearing a Leafs jersey does that.

    nice goal ehlers but this leafs goalie rittich.... lame.

    If Matthews had scored that goal, TSN would have an hour long documentary about it and would also have it at #1 on every top ten list for a month.

    And commentator Singh singing when Cgy scored...bias much?

    He definitely sounded like a big-time homer. I didn't realize that HNIC was the official broadcaster of the Flames.

    Anyone that says he should be played over Connor Hellebyuck needs to have their head examined.  

    Who said that? Second game of a back-to-back during a tight stretch of games - had to play him tonight.

     It chaps my ass because it's like the team just stops playing for a shift or two late in a game and gives up a bad opportunity. I think Hellebuyck could have a few more shutouts if not for those late game brain farts.

    How about the two home games that we lost literally in the last seconds (EDM, OTT)? If they hung on for a TOTAL of ~ 9 seconds and went to extra time in both, worst case we're in first place by 2 points right now.

    Yes I'm still bitter about those loses.

    I personally don't think there's a "taking it too far". Would much rather see those examples you listed, rather than someone coming too close. Absolutely nothing wrong with keeping as much distance as possible at all times. We know how infectious this virus (and especially the new variants) is, so why take any chances?? 

    Respectfully disagree with "as much distance as possible at all times". Why go outside then? Yes these are extreme examples that I gave but they happen. I'm not expecting a complete stranger walking by to give me a hug (and I hope they don't expect it from me), but c'mon...crossing the street instead of passing by someone? That's just being socially moronic.

    As far as future flu seasons, the fundamentals of staying home when you're sick and frequently sanitizing your hands should be done anyway. Maintaining that physical distance is just extra insurance.

    I'd love to see social distancing stick around, too. Things are generally too people-y.....maintain the 6' rule and people keeping distance in public. I'd be more than okay with all of that.

    A good idea, however the problem is that it was initially referred to as social distancing instead of physical distancing. A number of people take it as "avoid coming anywhere near other people at all costs". I'm out and about walking in my neighbourhood daily (with or without dog) and have had people 1) stop when they see me coming, turn around and walk back the way they came, 2) move over to give about 15' of distancing (even after I've moved over a few feet), 3) cross the street when they see me approaching, and 4) move from the sidewalk to walk on the street when they see me approaching.

    All of these examples tell me that either I'm horribly ugly, or they're taking it way too far (or a bit of both). These folks must have to take a Prozac so they can go into a grocery store - assuming they've been in one in the past year.
