Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

The lightning can't lightning just any team, but the leafs can leaf it with anyone.

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

I saw from a reputable Jets-based reporter that it was only one bike.

The story from 2018 where Vegas wouldn't turn the arena lights on for a game-day warm up is completely true however.

Damn it hockey is weird.

The Jets looked completely dominant in Game 1, and again in period 1 of game 2.

But for periods 2 and 3 it was all Vegas.

No idea what happened.

Happens all the time. Leafs got hammered in Game 1, hammered right back in game 2

Yonge Street parade this June? :P

Two man parade? Sounds like a plan! :D

See you then.

This is where the false hope starts, followed by crushing defeat. Let's go leafs!

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Leafs still lead 3-2 in their series against the Lightning.  So can still lose this one in 7 games.  In case you are inclined to be pessimistic.  :shutup:
:P

I haven't watched any games this season.  I've barely heard any sports comments either.  I usually listen to a radio show on the morning and listen through the hockey and football segment but skip over the golf part, and usually the other sports too.

I wish the best of luck to the Leafs.  After so many years of getting thrown out of the playoffs early on, they deserve it. :)
