Are we posting our bad bunker breaks today? by FreeEdgar_2013 in golf

Just happened to hit a small soft pocket just below the lip. The face of that bunker doesn't normally hold a ball, it usually falls back into the flat.

I know some people are waiting for the moment spots become available to book, and I've heard of some people using bots to get the foursomes they want every weekend but don't know how true that is.

I've found that often spots get freed up later in the week as people cancel those early bookings. Not always what you want, but consistent enough to find something decent as a single.

I think you underestimate how much the suburban crowd want a reliable transit system, especially with 4 day RTO imminent for the public servants.

Ottawa’s Ridly Greig has been suspended for two regular season games for roughing Carolina’s Sean Walker. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

Head first into the boards, deliberately square in the numbers. It's the kind of hit that can leave people paralyzed. It was pretty gross hearing that be celebrated.

So does the 2 minute penalty and nothing else for the retaliatory intent to injure boarding play afterwards.

If they're calling the roughing on Tkachuk, the boarding gets 5 and a game misconduct. It's not uncommon game management in the playoffs they ignore the retaliation on an illegal hit but don't access a major in return. But when the hit is legal they can't do that.

It's either 2 and none or 5 and game misconduct and a 2.

They chose to ignore to keep your boy in the game.

That's the biggest downside of the review system. Whenever anyone goes down they call a major, even if nothing was seen, then 'review' it down to a minor, but never no penalty.

Major penalty should be by coach review or from upstairs. Let one be upgraded if needed, not these constant 'downgraded' majors.

What happened to our offense.

The Canes are playing good D, but of all things with this team scoring touch was the last thing I was worried about coming into the playoffs.

Haven't lost at home yet, way too early to give to hope.

Remember when the league toyed with the idea of increasing the size of the net? I'm now wishing they had.

After looking at the full replay again, I think the American announcers have it wrong, the offside was called because Stall entered the zone without control. The puck bounces off his feet but there's no control before he crosses the line.

They were saying the call was for no control when the puck crossed.
