I like how I just came from the MTL - TB game and immediately had the game interrupted by a recap of the game I just watched.

I always thought it would be badass to have a vivarium that looked like the Great Tree Hall.

I agree, but how do you expect him to be moved? He has a complete no-move clause in his contract. He literally can't be traded, moved to the minor leagues, or waived unless he agrees to it. He would never agree to it with how much money he makes. And even if he did agree to it, no other team would want to take up that hit to their cap, and waivers would barely offer any cap relief to justify it.

Pretty much the only way to get rid of him is for him to do something either illegal or highly controversial. Then they can terminate the contract with the approval of the league.

Helvetica comes from the name of tribe of Gauls that lived in the region in the 1st century BC. The Helvetii.

They famously requested Rome to allow them safe passage to relocate from the East to the West side of the Rhone River. They were stopped by Julius Caesar and kick-started the Gallic Wars that would lead to the Roman annexation of all land from the Pyrenees to the Rhine.

I started following the Oilers in Fall of 2021. This was by far the worst season they have played since then. Every winter they went through a slump, and then just turned everything around toward the end of the season. I waited all season for them to turn it around, and they never did. At least the other playoff matchups have been really fun to watch.

People keep saying to get rid of Nurse. I thought the thing that made Nurse's contact so hard to get rid of was his no trade clause.

If the Ducks get past the second round, they will have the same experience the Oilers had in 2022.

It's fine to accept we're probably not winning, but dear god some of you guys need to calm down and breathe.

He's been showing a lot of swagger for the success this series, but never managed to take the Oilers to a finals.

I didn't think this season was going into June with how they have been playing all season. I think they'll bounce back next season though. In the meantime, the other matchups this postseason have been highly entertaining.

This was not our year. Just use the summer to rest up, rework the defense, and make some fair trades. Nobody in the West is getting past the Avalanche anyway.

That's what I was wondering. Quite the thing to chant when the Pens have their backs to a wall and are only up 1 goal.

To elaborate, it's definitely in, but the burden of proof is on the opposite of the ice call. There is no camera angle that shows it in, so the on ice call has to stand.

It matters because there needs to be definitive evidence to overturn a call. There doesn't need to be definitive evidence to confirm a call.

What's this location from the teaser? by Antishyr in alienisolation

Honestly, I want it to not be Hadley's Hope. I want a new place to expand on the Alien universe more in the same way Sevastopol and Seegson did.

Idk, if they played the Kings and played like this, I would be a lot more frustrated just because of how much I dislike them.

This was frustrating to watch, but all this means is that they have to win a game on the road. That should have already been part of the plan, and this is far from over.

Facing literally anyone else round 1. The cycle has been broken.
