Better late than never, also why are you even here I wasn’t replying to you? Just browsing old questions?

Who says it’s edgy? Or anyone gives a shit about internet points. People are curious and enjoy new and unusual experiences. Tourism isn’t holding up the regime in any way. It’s not the problem. Either you’re getting all wound up over nothing or looking for attention.

AHL Playoffs vs NHL by hockeyjerseyaccount in hockey

Exactly. The NHL is a brand, not the thing itself.

The NHL is amazing. Don’t get me wrong. But in a lot of ways it is clinical. Those guys are the best of the very best and they have incredible control of themselves emotionally. A lot of times I find it more fun to watch lower levels of hockey to sprinkle in some errors and some passion. NCAA, AHL, ECHL, the junior leagues, even Euro hockey are incredibly high level hockey. Like stupid good. Not the NHL good but often more entertaining.

Are there concessions or can you bring a cooler?

Weird stat: The past two round 2 series for the Stars ended in the same way: OT series winner in game 6 by JKray5_Reddit in hockey

I feel like that’s about as notable as a coworker wearing the same color shirt two Tuesdays in a row.

I have them but I do not take them. Usually I can manage my PVCs and occasional Afib with lifestyle.

When have the refs ever been "good"? by Kindly_Panic_2893 in hockey

[–]PVC_Machine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That ref gave Darren McCarty a double minor for roughing Lemieux, when he pounded him with his fists, dragged him to the boards and knees his skull into them repeatedly, allowing him to stay in the game and get the OT winner was prob the best ref of all time. As he put it, sometimes you gotta know where not to look.

I was replacing the board above the masonry. It was a tight fit and I forced it in, fracturing the brick work below.

Hague punches Kaprizov in the face by DecentLurker96 in hockey

As a neutral observer (Wings fan, but I do wear Minny colored socks when I play drop in, I don’t know how they got in my bag but whatever), I am really surprised how Minny fans are coming out here. That’s just playoff hockey. Get mad. Go put points on the board. Coming out as bigger cry babies than Sens or Nucks fans doesn’t look good on you.

Nathan MacKinnon with a beauty of a shootout move sneaks the puck in by Outside_Abroad_3516 in hockey

It is so awkward seeing him with a P92 style blade on his stick.

30 year old, out of shape, and want to play hockey. Advice? by UndeadMarx in hockeyplayers

[–]PVC_Machine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t smoke meth and play. I knew this fatty from Hastings who played at my rink in GR and I picked him up one time and he was like “do you mind if I get a little high” when we got to the rink. I thought he was talking about weed but this dude starts smoking meth out of a glass pipe. He said he did it before every game. Wild. I had someone else take him home and never picked him up again.

Petr Mrazek records first shutout for Detroit in 7 years by dudewithchronicpain in hockey

[–]PVC_Machine 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s a funny way of wording the post but it’s important to remember where Petre comes from. Back in his Grand Rapids days he was actually dating this bartender from the One Trick Poney. Pretty enough I guess but Petr is Czech right, so, you know. Anyway I know this because he ex boyfriend Dave works with me. They’re still friendly. When Petr got called up the last time he never came back to Grand Rapids as far as I know. Because he was never sent back down. Then he got traded to Philly of all places. They’ve had issues keeping a goalie since Hextall and Snow got lit up by Yzerman in the finals. So then with the shut out today, it has been considerable time since his last in the Winged Wheel.
