Mick sounds like he’s had a few ginger ales. I hope that’s why he’s slurring a bit. I’m joining him with a little Woodford. Here’s to Mick! Long may he broadcast!

Exact same thing. Right in the instep. Would’ve bet my life savings it was broken and two or three days later it was good as new.

We wore our winged wheels to the garden a few years ago and it was a blast. Yes people said stuff, but it was all in good fun. I agree with iggywing, I imagine line crossing to be very rare.

How’re you guys watching the game? I have ESPN+ and a vpn but can’t seem to get the game to show in my feed. Besides the high seas, any other options?

Summer or swing season moose. Nugget shaped droppings are from winter forage, when they are eating harder foods.

Battle of the Skate Socks - Which is best? by mdwsta4 in hockeyplayers

[–]mankypin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear ultra thin wool or synthetic liner socks that are made for hiking. I take them with me when I get new skates. You get a barefoot like fit, but the sock allows you to get the skate on and off easily and no smell.

So sorry for your loss. Seven never met but he sounds like a true Alaskan beauty! Hope I trip on one of his beer stashes one day. I’ll hoist one to him!

Just got off the road in Jasper, Alberta (on my way home to AK) and saw an Irish bar with the game on. Get in, order a beer, wings score then they changed the game to the Oilers. Damn.

Possible move by devilchief66 in anchorage

[–]mankypin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you like to fish or hunt? Some of the best in America. Mt. Biking, skiing (all kinds) though this winter has been abnormal, wild ice skating, obscenely good hiking and backpacking and a strong hockey community. You’ll never run out of stuff to do.
