Don't waste your money on Kraken 'rum', it ain't good (unless you want to mix it with a lot of Coke). I've never had a Coke in my life. (yes, a Pepsi or 2 ...)
Thanks for the heads up. Sounds similar to Black Diamond down here, that stuff is the worst. Worse hangover I ever had by far. I'm not a rum guy anyway, much prefer whiskey and only in small doses. CHeers!
I'm not a rum guy either, and I think I've told the story of why not, being my Dad was a big Black Diamond guy, so when I was sneaking rum, that's what it was. And he drank it with a bit of water, so that's what I did. It didn't go well...no matter how many times I tried it.
the Maritimer10:59 AM Forgot about the chick with two fried eggs as boobs, flat as a board as we used to say back in the day. Or flat as a fried egg in this case. the 'get kraken/cracking ' was the inspiration in case anybody wonders how my brain works...
Alternate jersey night, because the best-looking, most iconic jersey in the sport somehow needs an alternate?!? If it ain't broke don't fix it unless you're Gary Bettman and a bunch of cynical money-grubbing owners.
I saw the episode of Ted Lasso last night where they all tape over the AirDubai logos on their jerseys and wish the RBC logo would get the same treatment. But no one bites the hand tgat feeds them in the real worldof pro sport.
Nice thread, Saint Pad. Robin Williams was amazing. May he RIP JHFFB!
I am totally with SIM on the retro Jersey bullshit. Imagine how someone coming to the Bell Centre for their first ever game will feel when they show up to see the Kraken beat some fuckin team in powder blue. Buttman is a cock. JKHFFB!
Sportsnet train their personnel well to hate on the Habs. Or they hire people with that hatred already embedded. First thing in the pre-game Keith Yandle (they for some reason needed to find an American..from Boston to join their panel of morons) and Anson Carter each made it a point that the Habs won't get Connor Bedard. While most likely true, the way they each formed it was clear that they just don't WANT the Habs to get him. They can all fuck right off.
Ah, St. Pad, you are such a young one. The SFU has, for decades, shown its Habs hate. They hire ex leaf and broon for a reason. See an ex-Hab on their 'panels'? These people are bottom-feeding scum. Paid to be bottom-feeding scum. It is what it is.
Guess I'm just eternally hopeful that they might start one day treating all Canadian teams the same. I know...
Small steps but 2 games in a row with Sam Constwhathisname instead of Gally is a nice relief. Sam is good, fair, unbiased and has smart info on both teams.
So, someone explain why a production team decided to dig up this footage and show it during a Habs game with a slug like anson carter on their panel. This shit is planned way ahead.
By Marty's account there were too many passengers on his squad last night. By my eye test that was apparent after the first 10 minutes or less. The game was over early, hence my early departure as well. We all know who the passengers are for the most part, veterans on expiring contracts and those who the season will be over in early April so not much sense in going all out any more. There is also the cascade effect of injuries to the better players so less talented people are in spots they shouldn't be. We know all this as well. However, what to do with a player like #20? He is in over his head, looks lost 95% of the time, not getting much in the way of scoring chances, just going up and down the wing learning how to be a checker. Is that what management wants from a 1st overall pick? I ask you my FHFriends, do you see a 1st overall in Slafkovsky? Is there that much talent or skating ability to justify that spot? I've made up my mind. Hughes and Gorton were sold fake goods and only saw 6'-3", 230lbs. New head scout Bobrov tricked them. Slaf will never be more than a 20 goal winger if they are lucky. If they didn't want Wright fine. It should have been Cooley, Nemec or Jiricek. Those three are currently ripening in the NCAA and AHL exactly where they should be as 18 year olds. The Hab have fucked up. Again.
As Ho Che Min said when asked about the impact of the French Revolution- to soon to tell. However most superstars even at 18 separate themselves from the pack. He should be laval now. Gordon has two players Lafriend, and KOo KO number one and number two and they are now 3 years in both number two, flush.
Based on Jeff Gorton's luck at the lottery, he won twice with the Rags (Lafriend and Krappo) and now with Slaf, I feel he will snag either #1 or #2 in '23. Seems like he has struck out 3 times though. 4th time lucky?
Agree All the way Habs don’t know how to cultivate talent He has talent but the Habs are doing what they have always done which is destroy young talent Sad Go Habs
I think we all knew that Brendan Gallagher, aka kidG, aka Lep, wouldn't have a long career in the NHL with his kamakazi take-no-prisoners playing style. I'd say it's just a matter of time before he's on LTIR.
PK appreciation night tomorrow. Be awesome to sign him to a one day contract to retire as a Hab, but then in a twist he actually dresses and plays in the game. Might as well score the winner in OT too and triple low five whomever is in net.
I want to see them bring Vodkov back and sign him for a day to retire a Hab. He was never traded, just shoved out the door by an unappreciative braindead bergy who had no fucking idea what he had.
Word is he was invited (not sure if the same day as PK?) but declined as he's coaching in Russia. Hard to imagine him coaching...but I wonder if he'd like a job in Montreal?
It will be epic. This city lost a sliver of its soul when PK was traded. He freshened up this stodgy franchise for a time and reminded us of the excitement we once took for granted would never be absent.
I just wstched Beard After Hours (Ted Lasso, S2;E9)
Nice going St. Pad. CHeers (SWIDT?)
ReplyDeleteLOL! This is one of the funniest threads in a while!
ReplyDeleteGoal Armia. Sure he is. The ringing phone. Nice touch!
I've never had Kraken rum, might give it a try.
The Giants chick. Woof! The Dolphins chick. I was waiting for something to fall out there.
Oh no The Tank Tops! Oh well, another loss won't hurt.
Forgot about the chick with two fried eggs as boobs, flat as a board as we used to say back in the day.

Rum Sodomy & the Lash.
DeleteRum & Dope (unused punk band name out there for the taking, kids!)
But none for me thanks
So, the Giants drew the Vikings, if Daniel Jones doesn't give the ball away, Saquon has a big day, and if the D can get to Cousins they've got a shot.

ReplyDeleteHalfway through the first period, shots are 14-1 for the Kraken, score is 2-0. This is gonna be a spanking isn't it.
ReplyDeleteGood thing about being down 3 fifteen minutes in is that in theory there is lots of time to come back. In theory.
ReplyDeleteHabs must be drinking some really shit swill.
ReplyDeleteKraken rum?
DeleteHeh

Just dropped in to say I dropped out at 3 nil, plus those fucking blue rags just make me ill.
ReplyDeleteAnd, the SFU hatred is real, they still believe their leaf with Dougy and Felix would have beat the Habs in '93.
Sportsnet will never, ever hire anybody that ever played for Montreal
Oh look 2nd intermission and there's a video of Anson Carter as a Bruin scoring on the Habs...
ReplyDeleteSo, someone explain why a production team decided to dig up this footage and show it during a Habs game with a slug like anson carter on their panel. This shit is planned way ahead.

ReplyDeleteThe blue pajama jerseys are even messing with Whiskey's mojo. Stop this madness!!
ReplyDeleteWhoever approved those blue rags should be ashamed.

Habs don’t know how to cultivate talent
He has talent but the Habs are doing what they have always done which is destroy young talent
Sad
