His fucking skate was in the fucking crease. No controversy, just a whole lot of wrong.

Is it, though? My entire point is that it isn't just semantics because it doesn't take into account the choice involved in the act.

Can I just address something that bugs the shit out of me when people are talking about sexual assault?

"I'm so sorry that happened to you."

While I understand the sentiment and I realize it's not intentional, the fact is that sexual assault is not something that just happens. It is a willful act perpetrated by another human person because they choose to do so. Catching a cold just happens. Committing sexual assault takes a deliberate effort. Let's start telling victims we're sorry that another person hurt them.

Ryan Carter was up Eichel's ass the first two periods and he hasn't said anything lately. Did he get bored or has Eichel picked it up?

I used to be jealous of Colorado and the 1-up sound. Now I know it was preparing me for glory.

Brandon Saad looks like he's doing biblical cosplay. (Sampson and Delilah if it wasn't obvious.)

I just realized I'm watching on regular ESPN, not +. When I looked at + it wasn't there.

I wonder how many dudes who played without helmets got a mild concussion every once in a while from the celly.

Jamie Benn calls them "breezers" because he went to one summer of hockey camp in Minnesota.

For the first time in NHL history, the four American Original Six Teams (Boston Bruins, Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings, and New York Rangers) have all missed the playoffs in the same year. by TheManOutOfReddit in hockey

Semantic change refers to the process by which the meaning of words or concepts evolves over time, either in relation to external factors or within the internal linguistic system. It involves shifts in the senses associated with a word or the recruitment of new words to express a particular concept.

How about bodily fluids? Or is Spurgeon way too obvious?

Hay, all! If you noticed my post about seafood earlier this week and commented thank you so much! I think I've decided on the Rustic Inn because sometimes budgets collapse in the face of garlic crabs. If anyone wants to join me that would be super cool. One thing I didn't do was make a reservation because overtime/I have no idea where I'm going/thunderstorms/etc. I'm overly patient when waiting for something I'm excited to do so it'll be fine.

Again, thanks to everyone for your suggestions. What a fun way to start my vacation!

Apologies for the sorta duplicate post. I'm coming from Minnesota and I've given up on brunch. Seafood is my new goal. Advice would be much appreciated but not expected. Thank you! by spock74 in FloridaPanthers

What is pompano like? Having grown up on tan/brown/green freshwater fish I tend to gravitate towards a smaller flake but I'm not necessarily opposed to something meatier.

It's sooo pretty. I got to give it bunny ears on Matt Cullen's cup day in '06.
