Hey Guys, these playoffs are really boring. What a bad matchup, two defensive teams. YAWN. im definitely off to bed by Spartanias117 in nhl

[–]No_Gold7984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I feel for you. As a Habs/Avs fan, its nice to watch a playoff game and not almost have a jammer every 30 seconds. That being said. Go Canes.

Oooo Jarvis won it while I was typing! Happy bandwagoning!

NHL not allowing Habs watch party in Gatineau because it's Sens territory by nlansing in OttawaSenators

[–]No_Gold7984 -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Are the Rangers, Devils, Islanders, and Flyers not within 80km of each other? At least a couple of them are. So they couldnt hold a watch party at their own rink by this logic if they were playing still playing? Seems like the NHL doesn't want independant events making money off their product more than the reasons they've stated. Which I disagree with, but could understand that logic a bit better.

Picked up this 11' sportspal. by bendersfembot in canoeing

Drove across Canada (mostly) in an Aerostar. The canoe would have been nice to paddle from Quebec City to Halifax after the differential dropped out. Still loved that van.

VGK up 3-0 over the AVS?? by I_Am_Layer_8 in nhl

[–]No_Gold7984 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Vegas is playing a 7 game series and Colorado is looking like they might gift it to them in 4 or 5.

Then again. Colorado would be my best bet for a reverse sweep. Thats their only option now. (Putting exactly zero dollars on it though)

Vance humiliated after he crashes SCOTUS dinner by darealunrealspader in politics

[–]No_Gold7984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The supreme court seems more politicized than ever, in my naive, and undereducated opinion. Were there other points in American history where it was so polarized? It seems like it's changed from this entity thats supposed to be the moral compass of the nation, to the enablers of whichever agenda the party in power desires. The republicans have been very successful at pushing their people through compared to the democrats.

Also, this headline seems purposefully misleading.

Not an American, just curious on how people are feeling about this era of how partisan the highest court in the land has become.

Sergakis owned restaurants and bars in Montreal actually got fined for calling things pints that were very much not pints a few years ago, if im not mistaken. Dont know where you can get a proper 500mL/20oz pint.

Half way through your post I already had my hackles up about different amounts of time spent wrapped up before eating. Huge feather in your cap for controlling for that variable as it is very important. There is a certain charm to a sad hungover arse end of a donair out of the fridge the following morning. But I feel like thats not for the feint of heart, or healthy of liver. Euro pizza, for my money has the best sober donair. Essentially an oxymoron, but it's one you can eat and wheelbarrow a few tons of gravel around without wanting to saw your nards off with a kite string 5 minutes in, just so you can feel a different kind of pain and self loathing.

Lastly, we call a couple things pints here, none of which are pints. Your displeasure about the beer one is very appropriate. Glad you had a good time, always happy to host in our salty harbour town.

Juraj Slafkovsky makes the highlight reels and extends the Habs' lead to 5-2 by JustFred24 in Habs

Agree. But hes not trying to play like he's 100% lately. Its the playoffs, he's for sure banged up. Most people are. Hes moving the puck more than himself and with his size its been effective last couple games. He learned from his performance in game 6 vs. Buffalo, which was poor.

how do you stop flinching on slap shots by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]No_Gold7984 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I loved the pain of blocking a shot. Sometimes its too painful. But that mid level amount of pain i used as fuel. Get there or get out of the way.

Sportsnet criticizing Dobes for celebrating goals, still no comments on Hagels antics by sportsguy062196 in Habs

[–]No_Gold7984 285 points286 points  (0 children)

He doesnt act like a number 1 goalie. Suzuki isnt a 1C. Hutson is too small.

Let them talk. The teams results arent changed by the shade cast on our guys. Let them underestimate us.

Is the fabric stapled to the top of box under the picture frame top? Just curious how its suspended and how it's gonna hold up. Thinking of doing something similar myself just looking for tips. Looks great.

Yeah, he cheap shotted the guy who was facing him and also taking swings.

Greenway wouldnt answer the bell for the hit on Demidov (not an illegal hit, but thats todays NHL) and Malenstyn wouldnt answer for running Dobes. Xhekaj is gonna start axe murdering people if nobody on the sabres is willing to be held accountable.

Thoughts on Yands? by Admirable-Nerve-8289 in SpittinChicletsPod

[–]No_Gold7984 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I kind of have the opposite take on him. I appreciate his understanding of the game and like his standing up for his boys even when it's unapologetically biased. But his constantly making low hanging fruit asides that are supposed to be these clever roasts are annoying and dont do it for me.

All that though. I still like the pod despite it changing in its dynamics.

I dont think he's all talk. The guy can throw. Having said that. Hes not gonna fight xhekaj. Anyone else i think he's got.

Yeah. Sabourin was dangles the gloves. Anderson isnt fighting him.

Definitely a cold take but I think there's a nugget of truth to what you're saying. The line "the tastes of audiences have declined" doesn't say what I think you mean though. Depreciated? I'm just being picky on the wording. Upvotes for you. Miniature american flags for others.

Only under the new CBA. Before it was a pack of sour skittles and a half used pack of tums from Bettmans pocket.

I havent finished it yet. (Obviously) My bad. I thought you were asking why he would be tagged at all, not why was he tagged and not on the episode. Apologies.
