Red Wings. I don’t remember the player involved either.

The second one is almost a direct quote of something I posted once or twice in response to early season wins. I still stand by the sentiment, but the season is well past the loose play that we see around the league in the first few weeks.

I just want to be the first to say it here…. I hate Tkachuk.

For this season, we are well past “when teams buckle down and get serious”. They are passing that test so far. They can succeed at regular season hockey . At this point, their next test is the heavy hockey of playoffs.

Yep. No good sides to pick here.

Everyone has their kink. 🤷‍♂️

The least sold costume at the halloween store.

This might be the dumbest exchange ever on this forum.

The economy is booming, a part of why we have inflation. I don’t think we really want it to recede.

What is Dec 29? 4 days after Christmas. Christmas is over. Back to your normal programming. Of course, the same reasoning applies before Dec 25 as well. #Grinchmode

The ability to work from home, not living in one of the lake effect snow alleys, and a plowing contractor make Winter much more tolerable.

Any Sabre living within Buffalo city limits wouldn’t be able to get there.

Noone lost power, so their biggest concerns are snow removal. Surprisingly, Dad remembered to clear the furnace exhaust. Regarding generators and stuff, my plan B if the generator won’t fire is 2 propane buddy heaters and a freshly filled 20lb tank. A buddy heater is a pretty affordable insurance policy against a couple of days without power.

For a less than once in a decade event…. The root cause is people on the road during a ban. Like Eleven mentions, the single most impactful change to storm planning and crisis management would have been to initiate the driving ban sooner, and aggressively enforce it prior to the flash freeze that preceded the snow event.

I think the single largest issue that impacted response was all of the idiots that refused to stay off the roads while the storm was raging, and all the non essential employers that didn’t shut their doors and tell their employees to stay home Friday morning. Those two things happen and emergency response becomes a factor of 10 more simplified, and fewer in volume combined.

Prediction for the new year…. No.

We’re still under a travel ban. Looks like it’ll be Christmas for two this year.

Must be done in haiku format or it doesn’t count.

Its on now

I don’t know ***** about him other than the office he holds. I’m not an Erie Co resident. But hearing how the county emergency response is being affected, and my memories of ‘77, it sounds like the overall impact isn’t that far apart. I’m not gonna dismiss that statement. The impact of this storm just a few miles from me is pretty historic. The rural communities affected by this storm are getting crushed.

Mark Poloncarz (sp?) just called this storm more impactful than ‘77. Wow.

Shades of 1985. What a doozy. Glad to be home and have power. Kids are stuck about an hour away from us, but they are with family so they are OK. Relaxing, cooking a bunch of meals, having an occasional cocktail. What else are you gonna do? At an earlier age we might’ve had a Storm Surprise. Thankfully thats not a risk anymore LOL

100” of snow did not fall. Most of that is old snow blown off Lake Erie

Lame. That’s a GM’s job. It’s a fans job to react to the GMs successes and failures. To this date GT is a GM failure.
