Sens fans are gonna get a break on games 1 and 2 from disappointed leaf fans, which is like winning twice, and that's good because those are the only two wins you're going to associate with those tickets.

This is the thing that, so far as I know, hasn't been proven in court yet?

quote:

A few days before [the nanny] was scheduled to leave, Mike and Tamara went out with some of Mike's teammates. When they came home, Mike went down to the basement where [she] was sleeping with the kids. ... [The nanny] woke up with Mike's hands all over her. She did not move. She tried to say something but nothing would come out. Mike saw [she] was awake, but he did not stop. [She] mustered her voice and told him he needed to leave.

She did not scream because she did not want to wake the children who were in the bed right next to her. Mike was fully clothed and wearing a suit. His hand was on her breasts and he was pleasuring himself at the same time. [...]

Mike came back sometime later— this time just in his underwear. [The nanny] woke up with Mike forcing his hand down her panties. She grabbed at the blanket and started saying: "What are you doing?!?" He took his other hand that had been down his underwear and put it over her mouth and held down, intentionally and willfully restraining her against her will and without her consent. [The nanny] could not excercise [sic] her will to leave due to the force and threat of force from Mike.

Having restrained [the nanny] against her will, Mike then sexually assaulted [her] by shoving his fingers inside her vagina. [She] said he needed to leave and not come back.

In non-horrible-human news, Craig Anderson's up for the Masterton. He and his wife (who recently had a cancer scare) seem like really decent people and it's a pretty :unsmith: story even if it is one about two complete strangers who will never want for money again. Must be a bit weird to be Clarke McArthur in that room though.

Honestly Dorion hasn't done a whole lot worth screaming about one way or the other yet. Extending Claesson is something that would've been "One more bullshit move" if it'd been Murray but I think the new guy gets to take a flyer and see if the lovely defenseman they turned into a sketchy defenseman won't mature into a competent defenseman

Did we just get out-coached by Alain Vigneault? What does BruceGuy do differently, and for god's sake don't say "Sit Claesson dress Borowiecki" because I'm pretty sure I'm still drunk from watching whatever that was last night as it is.

NO idea what Turris was thinking there. If he was frustrated about the way that game had gone and he wanted to take that out on the people responsible, he could've waited until he got back to the locker room. The forwards generated basically no zone time ( I think they may have spent longer without the puck standing there watching odd-man rushes go the other way) and the defense is a trash fire but that'll happen when your only ingredients are garbage, methane and the rocks in Ceci's head. EK and Stone are obviously hurt and I wouldn't be shocked if there were something wrong with Hoff either. One win might happen, but two?
