Our local news is currently doing a story about a local woman whose father died due to covid. Her father lived in New Jersey. I’m sorry, but “random New Jersey man dies of covid” is not a news story in North Carolina. If they want to avoid fear mongering accusations, this is about the worst way possible to do so.

But what about when they start suggesting we start a fund to incentivize players to play better?

Banjo covers of all the top hits?

How can they fine people with out of state plates? They don't always live in the same state as the plates. Hell, one of my neighbors has been here for around 5 years but still has NJ plates.

But they were right. Every single piece if info about Williams in this thread is proof to that.

I'm starting to wonder if we may see a lot more 1 year deals in general this year, particularly when it comes to the non-elite tier players. This goes for both UFA and RFA. The whole thing feels like a massive "let's see how things bounce back" offseason.

Once again, nope, nothing to complain about. Still 100% rosy.

Why is it only a money grab for them when every other business in the country is also trying to figure out how to restart? Now I know you're going to say because they're rich, but where do we draw the line on who's a money grubber and who isn't? The real fun begins when we realize that this imaginary line may very well put Toronto on one side and Ottawa on the other.

He's 26 years old. I think that little detail tells you something.

Or not

Yeah, I just assume you walk and drive at the same speed. But at least you can’t walk through store front window.

Sorry, missed the sarcasm earlier.

Nearing?

Try the Snyder's ones sometime. They're a game changer.

Slowly working its way from China, through Europe, and then here. There was plenty of warning. Mostly, I worry that comments like those are going to fuel the conspiracy nuts for years to come.

The news here, at least last week, every single story was about such and such person who died. At that point, the death rate was below 1%, so it was pretty clearly a fear tactic. Maybe it's changed this week, but I've stopped watching because it was so horribly put together. I hope this isn't interpreted as me questioning the measures we've taken because I am not. It's just clear when you see an outlet who only cares about ratings. I'm glad I don't have to try to explain these broadcasts to any young children.

I have some of the Snyder's buffalo wing stashed away for when I need a snack. I call those things crack pretzels.

So did they start at the Aud. Interesting. The only thing I could remember was the later incarnation, the Wings, playing at Buff State (thank you wikipedia). Looking over their roster is interesting. UMASS Lowell's current head coach played for the Stampede.

That game was actually in St Louis' arena. I can't believe they actually got that building for something like this. It's funny. I remember that whole experience, but I can't tell you whether or not I actually went to any games.

That Pearl Harbor 9/11 comment has been driving me mad. I don't know if it's just the complete stupidity of it or the fact that it's been replayed on a near constant loop. It is absolutely nothing like those events and the comment is a slap in the face anyone who was involved in either of those days.

Patriot fans actually pointed me to TSW at one point. I know, that probably sounds crazy. Then I migrated over to this side when the lockout was coming to an end. I forget the exact timing, but I'm sure it was dreams of Crosby that did it.

It's a hockey board. Do you really want the entire world to be consumed with COVID conversation 24/7? We've been hoarding TP but maybe we should have been hoarding antidepressants.

It's not like the NHL states that they're playing games out of Englestad whether North Dakota likes it or not.

It's a sad day when shirtless handstands don't qualify as low IQ.

Right. But it's a concept that I couldn't see having much longevity. At least the hockey proposal here is actual hockey. With televised horse, I think the interest would fall off really quickly, even among the bouncyball junkies. If the NHL tried a skills competition right now between a few people, it wouldn't even get 5 minutes of my attention. My point of view on the whole thing is that they should just focus on the widespread restart and not waste much time on the gimicky short term stuff.
