It’s the best social media lol. It’s also the worst social media.
The rules were emphatically clear. He knowingly violated them anyway, got caught, then lied about it for decades. I have no sympathy whatsoever for him.
Anyway, it was a great moment for a great player and I’m glad I was alive to witness history being made. I don’t want to go any further than that.

Ay, im not going to die on a hill to defend him. I dont know much about him or the case. However banning a player from the hall of fame or betting when you have betting sites stapled to jersey and sponsorships... It just hypocritical.

The times and people’s attitudes have changed on sports and gambling. The context is very different now. For me, it was always about his dishonesty and upholding the integrity of the game.
I would still have an issue now with players and coaches placing bets on their sport and/or team regardless of betting sites for the general public so as to preserve the integrity of the game.

On a human level, I do feel for Georgiev.
I remember someone here (either Gigantor or Henchy) mentioning when the Avs traded for him that Georgie was very talented, but his problem was "between the ears"...and at some point the end to his 1st season in Colorado, he just got completely broken & hasn't recovered.

This is the look of a guy born in Bulgaria realizing he will be playing in the KHL next year.
His NHL days are done, unless a team really wants to tank for McKenna and gives him a contract.

Jim Nil spoke to ESPN on Saturday and said Heiskanen isn't expected to be back in round one.
DeBoer, about three weeks ago, said he could return at some point during the first round. The Nil statement is more recent.

This tidbit makes me feel like Randolph Duke when he read the fake orange crop report in Trading Places.Jim Nil spoke to ESPN on Saturday and said Heiskanen isn't expected to be back in round one.

I said anarchist... not antichrist. But I honstly don't believe in those, either. Societally, I'm probably more of a nihilst than anything. Just a very grim future outlook. I try to be a rationalist, but admitedly fail quite often as an emotional being.

I didn’t even know he was sick.
Always liked Millen way more than Garrett, Healy, other shitty ex-goalie analysts they’ve put on CBC.
Rest in peace.

Is Millen the one who couldn't pronounce Nichushkin until game 5 last year?
Always liked his colour even if he got names wrong if so

I so don't know if I prefer to face the Stars in Round 1 or that they jump Winnipeg to avoid them in Round 1... My first instinct is to avoid them because you never know, but facing them in Round 1 without Miro is quite enticing... But Round 2 would give Landeskog a few games to get better... especially if Seguin gets the luxury of playing 1-2 games before the end of the year...Jim Nil spoke to ESPN on Saturday and said Heiskanen isn't expected to be back in round one.

I have no idea what emoticon is appropriate in this situation.
Just heartbreaking news.
