I wonder if the SFU 'experts' are still beating the Zach Hyman drum for Team Canada since he ingloriously chose to sign with the Oilers. Hah!

~~~ Scott in Montreal11:41 AM Broons now have six players and one staffer in COVID-19 protocol. Not sure if they should come here to play this Saturday. Legault says things are critical in Québec and he's given a presser tonight at 6 ET. 2,700+ new cases today here. Hold tight everyone.
On the hockey side, Gorton is likely why CP30 was called up today and announced as tonight's starter against the only team he saw his dad play for. Cool. First time we've seen the Philthies since tgey eliminated us in 2020 playoffs and busted Lep's jaw. I am betting the boys will be up for this one. It might also be the last game before fans in the phone booth for some time. GYFHG
Their imminent playoff demise will be even more delicious, unless of course Covid has different ideas. The next 2-3 weeks are going to be something, for everyone.
Love that Plante pic, the true Jake the Snake, no disrespect to Jake Allen who is playing his guts out in ducharme's fucked up 'system'. Good on Dish for calling it out.
Slowly but surely Flash is exerting his plan, I'm glad to see Northlander sent home to get some quality playing time which was never going to happen under ducharme. I'm also glad to see Primeau get some 'Prime' time against his dad's old team. Classy move Jeff. Next, send CC to Laval to regain his scoring touch, no need for him to he involved in this dumpster fire.
I'm watching Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings tonight, got the blu-ray a few days ago. Maybe I'll catCH the 3rd period. Youngest son and a few friends are going to the new Spider-Man movie tonight. He moved out the 1st of Dec., got his own place with a high school buddy, he's enjoying being on his own, but I miss him. I know, I'll get over it.
Shang-Chi is a ton of fun. Every Marvel movie has a scene stealer, this time it's a young actor I've never heard of, Awkafina. Love her. Love the name.
Heard about the no fans directive, gotta feel for the phuckers fans who made the trek and got screwed. Hope they get their money back.
They just made it official: the game against the Bruins Saturday is being postponed. Take care, all. Mrs. SiM reports they cleared out all patients in her ward and canceled all elective surgeries. She walked in this morning to find out one of her patients is their first confirmed with Omicron (not ICU, at least). No word yet on when she or her colleagues might get their boosters either, and they are all over 6 months past their last jabs. The PPE is about to be hoarded I expect.
Lets play some REM. Based upon the level of discomfort the NHL players have faced, I think this is the endgame for covid. The Olympics are done, but lets start the playoff right after. We go into the lottery in 3rd I believe.
The standings show Montreal at 31st with both Ottawa and Arizona holding games in hand. The Habs have an excellent chance of dropping to 32nd and getting the best odds to pick 1st overall. Doesn't mean they will but after this season from hell the hockey gods owe them that much.
Covid is digging its heels in again. Restrictions in every province. NHL teams shutting down to New Year. NFL games being pushed back. This shit ain't over by a long shot. Mrs. The M and I got our boosters back in November because we were over 60 and our first shot was the AZ. Even so, I'm being cautious, I wear a mask everywhere and we don't travel at all.

So this stupid country is pumping out 100k new cases a day but Boris is too busy covering his ass to do anything about it. I am staying at home! You guys all stay safe.
Stay safe everybody... we're watching things very closely as D2 and her BF are supposed to be flying in Xmas day, but man the cases in Ontario are looking scary.
Discovering that there were booster shots available wasn't easy via the gov't website but my son and I got ours this morning. Took about 20 minutes. 3x Moderna.
we are in unCHarted territory. Lots of hope the Omicron is as deadly as Optimus Prime in the Leaf Net. A third booster is well something that has never been considered. I will get mine Jan 8 if I dont fall down before that date.
Wow, St. Pad... Only over 60...thats poor. I do moan about the UK killing itself but the only thing they have done right in this entire 2 year debacle has been the vaccine. Me, Mrs And my two girls are all dobke vaxxed and boosted. My youngest is just 18 and oldest whonis 25 have both done the double and waiting on hitting 3 months vaxxed to get boosted. I think we boosted almost 1m people today alone... So they are making up for letting it run amoke by preventing it from killing us at least. Credit where due I guess...
NS just hit population of 1 million this week. there are a lot of health and pharmacy staff actually in Covid protocol,leading to the delay but I'm pretty confident it will be early in the new year that we see the booster numbers rising pretty quickly. Or so I hope anyway.
Strong possibility the all Canadian division may return. I wouldn't be surprised to see the border closed again to non-essential travel. Forget the Olympics, shouldn't be going there anyway.
My Giants lose again, they finally benched the useless Mike Glennon, I liked what little I saw of the new kid. I would keep him over the equally useless Daniel Jones.
I am waiting for Dr Bombay to weigh in. From what I have seen is we all will get the Omicorn. the vax does not prevent in anyway infection. However, maybe because of the vax or maybe because Omicron is as weak a Optimus prime was as a goalie, we are not going to die or get really sick no matter what is correct.
Congrats to Captain Guhle, perhaps a future Habs leader too.
Here's hoping that Flash and whomever his Dale Arden may be, are able to transform this franCHise and return to respectability before long with the likes of Guhle, Romanov, Suzuki and Caufield leading the way, among others of course.
Very interesting and probably a common thing in some states. I've come to the conclusion that America is on the verge of collapse, or civil war, or something bad. They are no different than Russia or China or any other corrupt country in the world. For decades America has tried to impose their political 'system' on other countries from Viet Nam to Afghanistan. Who would want that mess? They are literally committing mass suicide and proving Charles Darwin correct. Nature is taking it's course, across the world actually, and the Earth has decided enough is enough and will protect itself.
No Olympics this year for NHLers. This is for the best. And finally our mega-injured and sickened Habs get a break too.
Army was the first Hab to get COVID-19 and he is looking like a guy who might be quietly suffering from long COVID. I know it did a number on my cardiovascular system and I still get winded or fatigued and crampy with occasional relapse days 20 months later.
Could the NHL not come up with an actual world toury held ever 4 years. It would be so simple and make a ton of money and no one would care about the Olympics which is about as moral compasses lost as any organization. The IOC is a private swiss company. I heard it has been 14 years since the best of Hockey played for their country?
Some bad news from here. My daughter in Montréal has tested positive for Covid. She had two tests done. Her BF tested negative and he will stay with friends. Likely happened at her work party last Friday. She has mild symptoms and is 2x vaxxed. Stressful times. Be safe everyone.
Damn. Hearing this sort of thing way too much this week. What a shaft right before Xmas. May she push through without too much shittiness and recover fully and quickly.
Same news her... The daughter in law to be just tested positive on the day she received her booster. Means kids 1&2 who don't live at home, won't be coming home for Christmas or boxing day... We will try again for NYE... Be careful people. Isolate yourself until Christmas day.
Mrs. SiM has two patients today and little going on (only emergency surgeries and freeing up space for a hot zone if other parts of the hosp get overwhelmed). So some folks' already way long-awaited surgeries are being pushed back again, indefinitely, their conditions no doubt worsening (or stable at best).
At least they have her scheduled for a booster this afternoon. She is working three straight 12-hr days after tomorrow so it'll be me and my daughter eating too much chocolate and playing Scrabble. But fingers crossed, no positives in my network so far. Lots of hermits here.
Stay safe all, and if you're ill, may you be able to take it easy and get all better soon.
Nineteen years ago today, Joe Strummer died at 50 of a heart attack caused by an undiagnosed congenital heart defect. He was such an inspiration, and on a day like today we could use some.
Wow, very un-nerving news from you guys, stay safe. I've dialed back my activities, grocery runs are pretty much it. Omicron has blasted into Nova Scotia and got a toe hold here in NB, just a matter of time. Even though I've had the booster I'm still frightened by the possibilities of getting Covid as I'm well past 65 now turned 67 yesterday.
Concerned the QC govt might enforce Mrs. SiM to a hotel existence at some point soon, to keep her uninfected. There's been talk. Sounds dumb to me, but CAQ is well known for coming up with dumb shit. That would be even fucking drearier.
Bill 21 has to be the dumbest thing ever. Can't believe they got away with that. Also can't believe the feds didn't step in. Can't step on separatists toes I guess.
Been locked into work finishing some big projects and now am finished for the year. I hope you and your families stay safe and recover quickly. Our daughter and BF are still planning on arriving from Ottawa on Xmas day...they and we both only do grocery runs, have very small bubbles... we're hoping for the best.
Rapid tests are free and for the most part plentiful over here. My kids are all testing daily as they all work and we are still hopeful of being able to all be together this holiday. Schools and the govt. Give you packs of 7 tests at a time. Gives you a certain degree of reassurance when you are in the middle of flu season and every cough makes you panic...
Shortage of take home rapid tests and I'm not standing in a 2 hour line with a bunch of people I don't know whether or not are vaccinated to 'maybe' get a kit.
PMJT says the Feds are sending more to provinces. Our Premiere on multiple occasions referenced the Hunger Games regarding fighting to get these tests. I'll just stay home, thanks.
Yes I have greviensce but that tommow. Tonite our future captian Google will engage with the Soviets and I dont think we have a dog on that team.. Kudos for the cultural impact of Seinfeld. It is really the global greatest show ever.
If you read, you know that thing where you move your eyes to bring text to brain, we are very far behind the curve of the new generation of amazing players who can do more than crosscheck you.

Fuck the leaf and their SFU
ReplyDeletePreach it!!
DeleteHehehe... Leaf never fail to show us how bad things could actually be... Imagine being top of the league..but having to be a leaf...
ReplyDeleteTheir imminent playoff demise will be even more delicious, unless of course Covid has different ideas. The next 2-3 weeks are going to be something, for everyone.
DeleteLove that Plante pic, the true Jake the Snake, no disrespect to Jake Allen who is playing his guts out in ducharme's fucked up 'system'. Good on Dish for calling it out.
ReplyDeleteSlowly but surely Flash is exerting his plan, I'm glad to see Northlander sent home to get some quality playing time which was never going to happen under ducharme.

Next, send CC to Laval to regain his scoring touch, no need for him to he involved in this dumpster fire.
ReplyDeleteI think CC is here to stay. Too many holes in the lineup.
DeleteGood for Prime to get some action.
Norlinder said as much, that he wanted to go home and play, a lot. Sounds like he and Flash had a CHat.
Norlinder gets home for Xmas before they shut down all travel. Smart move, looking long-term, he'll never forget this I bet.
DeleteI'm watching Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings tonight, got the blu-ray a few days ago. Maybe I'll catCH the 3rd period.

I know, I'll get over it.
ReplyDeleteRe-watched 'Bad Santa' last night. Still funny.
DeleteBe fun to see Csar lay out another big (Robinsonesque) hit tonight.
ReplyDeleteLike the Dornhoffer hit? Where the boards needed repair? Czar has it in him, for sure. Do it for Lep's jaw.
DeleteHuzzah!
Yep.
DeleteNo fans in attendance, last minute directive. Probably for the best. Have an Omnichronic Christmas everyone!
ReplyDelete20th anniversary of Stuart Adamson's passing on this day. Miss him and his talent still.
ReplyDeleteI think Big Country could have made a big impact on music. Died way too young.

ReplyDeleteLeko rather!
DeleteThat was a decent period of hockey. Good hustle. Do it again...
ReplyDeleteOne period at a time...
Not a tough opponent but good hockey.

Five years since Homer's last NHL goal, sez RDS
ReplyDeleteI'm OK with a loser point.
ReplyDeleteLOL! What a cheap fucking penalty!
ReplyDeleteSeems like a dumb call in OT
ReplyDeleteThey killed it! Nice block by Czar. Huzzah!
ReplyDeleteCP30 has been Primo
ReplyDeleteYeah, he's looked good from what I've seen. Either that or Philthy is bad. Which they are.
DeleteOfficials are barely there. Missed a hand pass by the Philthies
ReplyDeleteNHL officials are a joke. How do you miss that hand pass? Answer: it's vs the Habs, let it go.
ReplyDeleteDruid!
ReplyDeleteAtkinson you fuck
ReplyDeleteThis Gorton's first win?
ReplyDeleteYep
DeleteCP30 was fucking great. First win of tge Gorton era is thanks much to him.
ReplyDeleteA Win!!! It's a Christmas miracle!
ReplyDeleteFor some stupid reason he didn't merit even the 3rd star... wuttevs
ReplyDeleteA win is a win. CP30 played great and staying up has finally resulted in a win. Good to see the kids getting more time on the PP and in general.

ReplyDeleteGood on ya Moe👍
ReplyDeleteGreat recap of the biased leaf panel.
ReplyDeleteI thought the best interview of the night was the infectious disease doc in the second intermission wearing his Habs jersey to mclame's chagrin.
we are in unCHarted territory. Lots of hope the Omicron is as deadly as Optimus Prime in the Leaf Net. A third booster is well something that has never been considered. I will get mine Jan 8 if I dont fall down before that date.
DeleteOne would think that the panel would take the high road but nope they only care about their leaf. It is really disturbing. They are sick fucks.
DeleteBig win for the Steelers. Staying alive!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of, good on ya for getting your booster Moe. Still only for 60+ here in NS and I'm many years away from that!
