    Man, that is a weak defence: Chariot and WrongSavard + Dish and Kadillak + Tsar and Thin Man, with Less Than Primo in net. The Shane Train chugs along unabated.

  6. I was actually watching Canada vs Honduras World Cup Qualifying. Keeper made a fantastic save to restore the 1 nil lead, then minutes later they scored a beauty to ice it with a 2-0 win.

    But I did switch over to hockey in the 3rd, saw the 5-3 goal and the penalty shot. Flipper actually looked like a decent hockey player on that play. (Dauphin, dolphin, Flipper...trying it out).
    and they had other chances to tie the game. If Dish wasn't cursed or whatever the hell is going on with him, it would have been.

    Anyway it's all good. Kal-El and Flash gotta be pulling some strings soon...

    I'll bet buttman aka the littlest commissioner is super pissed that the Habs keep losing games and are potentially blocking HIS Coyotes from getting the No. 1 pick in the draft in 2022. He'll find a way to Az the first pick by hook or crook. The way those dogs are selling assets, look for Connor Bedard to be sentenced to 3 years in the desert as well.

Gotta be on your game picking that perfect shoveling window. And shoveling in the rain sucks and is probably the cause of more than one heart attack per season.

    It's been wicked here today, lots of snow and heavy winds, no rain so I am waiting until tomorrow. Most of my driveway is actually clear, the wind is taking the snow away but there is a huge drift in front of my garage door on the leeward side of the house. Once the plow goes by it's going to be a big job.

    I hope the Habs play a tight game tonight, if they give up 50 shots to these guys they are going to be run out of their building.

    Regarding the Ottawa 'protest' ... it's hard to believe, and extremely disappointing, there are that many assholes in this country. I thought we were better than this.

    I used to always vote PC when there were honorable men like John Diefenbaker, Bob Stanfield and a maybe little less palatable Brian Mulroney. That party was hijacked by Preston Manning and Stephen Harper and infiltrated by wingnuts and crackpots like Bernier, O'Toole and weasels like Poilievre. It's a sad state of affairs these days for small 'c' conservatives.

  49. I'll say this about the protest and move on. Because maybe I'm just not that smart.
    Journalists don't seem to be asking the obvious questions.
    - When we first heard about this, it was about truckers needing to be vaccinated to cross the border. USA have the same restriction so they couldn't cross to the south anyway.
    - So it's blossomed into this protest against forced mandates in general, getting vaxed, wearing masks, shutdowns etc. These are all provincially mandated with nothing to do with Ottawa. I've not heard any of the interviews with protest participants bring up thelis fact.
    - It is sadly not surprising that even here in Canada, a protest of this nature brings the worst of the worst out of the woodwork. I still believe (hope) that is a VERY small number of Canadians with those extremist, racist views. I don't know if we will ever see the old PC party back. If I recall correctly NS golden boy Peter Mackay and David Orchard each hold blame for this as they sold out at the leadership convention to Harper and then let him merge the party with Stockwell Day?

It's deplorable. And yes, Golden Boy Peter McKay did sell out the PCs to Western interests. Then he got fucked over by Belinda Stronnach the floor crosser.

      Can't see it. It's ok to lose close games but if it's one blow out after another, players are going to want out. You have to be competitive, which they aren't and that is on the coaching staff. DD has to go, let Luke or Alex take over for the remainder of the season. Fuck Legault and his minority of xenophobes.

    2. I disagree. You have Dish playing like a juvie. I loved him and now I hate him. I am not in his mind but when you see goal scoring CHances coming off his blade like curls at the ice capades you have to wonder?
      The twine binders have not learned to tie the knot. They are getting lit up, but the shooters have time an space to make a perfect shot.
      No coaCH can stop the CHaos we must embrace if we really want to win the cup five years out.
      You have to get top 5 picks at least two or better 3 years in a row. In the next two drafts COVID has made it Russian Roulade, easily a 2nd rounder will be the best player from the draft.

      I'm starting to think Steve may be right. Clark said everything is on the table. If they decide to tear this down we could be looking at 2 or 3 years of rebuild misery. If leafools can endure it so can we. That being said, DD has to go now, maybe Luke as well at the end of the year. The games are over before the 1st period is done. Who wants to watch that? Not me.
