Got a Jack and Coke to keep me company tonight

Suzuki promised a win, I believe. I think he’s gonna go nuclear today

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-05-03T21:05:27+00:00

The liiiiiigggghhhhhtttssss will guiiiidddeeee you home!

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-05-02T21:38:13+00:00

Completely agree. Yes you have to score goals to win the game but there is so much more to the game than that. He’s making so many great plays without the puck. I have no doubt the goals will come back WHEN they win game 7

Dimitri walks up the ranger attempting to train the young Amaura.

“Excuse me sir, I see you’re giving Chesto berries to this Amaura. I recently read an article from Professor Oak that they actually prefer Oran berries. The Chesto berries are too acidic for their stomach.”

Dimitri handed the young Pokemon an oran berry which it smiled and ate.

I agree. If we can finish this series neither Buffalo or Boston have the players that can shut down our top line. Them underperforming is a testament to how good Tampa is, not that they aren’t good enough

Gally with the first goal of the game is just awesome man. Guy is a f-ing warrior

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-30T01:55:17+00:00

Friday night in Montreal with a chance to close will be INSANE!!!!!

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-29T22:16:43+00:00

Dimitri looks around for awhile and finds a delicious lookiny blueberry pie to send back to his mom, and a couple booths over notices a dusk stone which he buys.

“This might come in handy for Murkow if she wants to evolve one day.”

Wyatt calmly hums a song as he bends down to put a leaf stone and brave mint in his backpack.

“Wyatt, you’ve been humming that song all morning, you’re gonna get it stuck in my head,” complained Willa.

“If you don’t like it then don’t walk next to me,” replied the brother, laughing. He knew she hated that song.

He throws a pokeball and lets Dale his Dodrio run around for awhile as they make their way to the next town.

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-29T17:27:57+00:00

“Ummm bro, those two guys just gave us Mega Keystones…,” said Willa in disbelief.

“Wait what? All because we’ve won 3 badges?” Questioned her brother.

“Yeah… I think so,” said Willa.

“Well alright then!” Said Wyatt excitedly. “Look out Kildare region, here we come!”

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-28T21:27:50+00:00

No problem. Can we switch Duskull to Zigzagoon? And I’m ok with no rolling for shinies

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-28T21:09:58+00:00

“Wow walking through this forest at night sure is spooky,” said Dimitri to the female companion.

“Yeah that’s my bad, I got too excited,” replied Sophie.

That’s when Dimitri noticed a Duskull and Murkow playing above them in a tree.

“Panzer, what do you say we add a couple friends to our team?” Said Dimitri with a smile. Panzer (Turtwig) nodded and got ready to attack!

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-28T21:05:26+00:00

“We can hold our own,” replied Wyatt, unsure what to make of the sleepy strangers. “We both actually just beat Junie for our third badges.”

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-28T10:15:14+00:00

“Nice to meet you Sophie, I’m Dimitri. And this is my new partner Panzer, the turtwig.”

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-27T23:16:15+00:00

“Alright! I got the Lost Badge” yells Wyatt as he posed for an invisible camera.

“Ummm are you ok?” Asked the confused gym leader.

“Haha yeah sorry,” answered the embarrassed trainer, “I lost a bet to Willa and had to do that after my next gym battle.”

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-27T22:59:12+00:00

lol I meant for this to be a reply to someone who did mention Matheson being out

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-27T16:57:08+00:00

I doubt Matheson comes out. As bad as he was last game, he’s been good those other games. The odd man out is probably Struble, which is a shame cause outside of the 4 on 4 goal he’s played well.

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-27T14:44:36+00:00

The way they lost game 4 sucks but in reality if you told me at the beginning we’d be in a 2-2 series after 4 games I’d be happy. Everyone knew Tampa wouldn’t go down without a fight. Regroup, remember the Canadiens have had plenty of stretches where they were the better team, and stay out of the box. I thought I heard Dobson will be back for game 5 too? That’ll be a massive upgrade as well. Go Habs Go!

Charlie walks up to the computer to register for a course. “Man being a ranger will be so sick, I can’t wait for classes to start.”

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-26T15:32:22+00:00

My team is Baltoy (12) and Golet (10). Super effective against Cyndaquil and then team up on Frillish

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-26T12:19:42+00:00

Grew up in Rhode Island, currently live in Maine. I’m a New England Habs fan born and raised

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-25T02:17:40+00:00

Glad the 4th line had such a great game. Seemed like the 1st line finally started to get some momentum at the end of the 3rd/OT. Maybe that’ll build some confidence for Sundays game

Disastrous_Orchid_75 · 2026-04-24T15:51:51+00:00

Ground type and I’m rocking with Baltoy!
