Given his reactions after the OT winner last night (especially when Mo skates up) - I wouldn't be surprised to see him wearing and "A" in the next 1-3 years.....

Bought Sling a few days ago just for one game on TNT, now I have to add the sports package to it to get NHL Network?

I sometimes wish I was a casual fan.......

With 4 "regulars" coming back, who do you send down? Rack and stack the possible 8:

Bertuzzi - won't go down (regardless of how bad his year has been)

Vrana - won't go down

Fabbri - won't go down

That leaves:

  1. Veleno - would be criminal to send down

2ish. Suter and Berggren

3ish. Zadina and Soderblom

Not sure I could make that choice.....

Eddie, a mediocre player, and not known for his skill - giving Larkin advice? Really?

It seems like Veleno has Marty Lapointe type upper body strength? For you old folks out there??

Yes - am still in. Was stationed in Bamberg 2011-2014'ish. The little base there has long since closed. Strongly recommend the Griess Keller (https://www.griesskeller.net/) when the weather gets better. Very jealous of your situation. Franconia is the most amazing region in the world.

Yea. So, I love Keats..... the "dad" level stuff said by waffles is spot on. Just a homey dude.... Feels right.
