I feel like this is gonna be either a four game series where the Avs absolutely house the Bolts in consecutive 6-4 games. Or it’s the Lightning in five, where they just grind the Avs to dust dust with the world’s most boring-but-effective hockey. No in between.

I'm hoping we get at least a couple wild games before cooper shuts it down and everyone including the fans are turned to dust.

I am torn because nicknames like Moose and Pebbles are good automatically because they aren't just -ie -y ending names, but I have no idea who the gently caress those names are referring to now.

There was a goalie who was nicknamed Moose because his helmet had the Manitoba Moose logo on it from before he was called up. Jonah Hedberg, IIRC. here's a thing on how Elliott got the handle if anybody is interested. https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/pro-files-brian-elliott-nicknamed-moose/ He also knows how to moose call. deoju fucked around with this message at 05:02 on Jun 14, 2022 |

Played his first game with the Pink Panthers aged 8, was named captain by 11 and was onto his fourth wife aged 16. Stripped of his captaincy aged 17 likely due to his many affairs. The man is a legend.

The only good options are Avalanche in 7 or the Lightning winning as long as we continue to acknowledge that 2020 and 2021 weren't real Cups.

My favorite 300lb player is Max Bouffard, who played goalie for five years and is listed at 245lbs, then got axed from the show and started hammering slices, and later played forward two years later at 300lbs. https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/61134/max-bouffard https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/152682/max-bouffard He went on to play JJ Frankie JJ in Letterkenny/Shoresy.

I don't think this is something that we're going to need to worry about. I think the reason tickets are inexpensive in Florida is because it's Florida and there's only 12 people there that play hockey. They're all from Canada.

Inventing advanced stats for a sport with 3 scores per game, half of which bounce unpredictably off one or more players who don't know a shot is being taken.
