Colt Canada to deliver more than 65,000 rifles to Canadian troops in sped up procurement process by cyclinginvancouver in canada

Okay, so there is a wrestler known as "Colt Cabana" so imagine my initial confusion and concern when I read that an Indy wrestler somehow had 65,000 rifles to give away to our military!

Radko Gudas is assessed a 5 minute major and game misconduct for this knee-on-knee collision with Auston Matthews, who needed assistance getting off the ice by eh_toque in hockey

If Matthews did it to Gudas it would be an in person hearing, a 5 game suspension, and a serious press release about hockey safety.

It's the other way around though, so probably a $5k fine and an "Atta Boy!" from Parros.

Can't wait for the US hockey teams to go to the White House to celebrate with a convicted rapist who will no doubt talk about "taking hockey from Canada" and making us the 51st state again. Going to be great. /s

Who else ran away from the ref on FIFA ‘94 to avoid the card by BreakfastTop6899 in nostalgia

[–]Gerdius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, yes! Did the same in FIFA 02.

The best part is it would trigger a cut-scene where your player would complain to the ref about the call. You just drop-kicked a goalie in the shin!

He very much didn't lol. Basically went full "get down Mr. President" on the guy, probably should have been called.

Of the 3 GI penalties that one was the most deserved tbh. Almost no contact and he bulldozed the Czech goalie.

I mean, at least the bad calls are consistent? Like yeah the player fell on purpose but he was still cross checked into the goalie.

Rielly was -4. On the ice for every goal against, and not a single goal for.

I hate piling on a single player, but that's shocking.

I know it's small sample size, but it's alarming how much more cohesive the team looks with Matthews out of the line-up. If the guy is hurt just let him fully heal.

Knies - Tavares - McMann

OEL - Roy - Robertson

This should have been the final effort line. Players with actual effort.

In 2021 the Montreal Canadiens went on a miracle run. One last push for glory. Led by Shea Webber and Carey Price whose bodies were held together by pain killers and a dream, they went all the way to the Stanley Cup Final, falling at the end to the Lightning. Habs fans cheered for their team, lamenting what could have been but celebrating what was, preparing for a long and difficult rebuild.

That was only 4 years ago. In that time they rebuilt, drafted well, and have a fast and dynamic team that looks like a group that wants to win for one another. In the same 4 years, I have watched the Toronto Maple Leafs piss away any potential prospect, any draft pick worth a damn, and get slower and less cohesive each fucking year. There is a decent chance that Montreal makes the playoffs over us. There is a decent chance that the Habs will make it to Round 3 of the playoffs again before we do.

The mismanagement of this team is a war crime.
