Devils' updates:

Jesper Bratt may become available tomorrow but it would be his first full skate with the team.

Aaron Dell may be in uniform.

Mackenzie Blackwood remains on the virus list.

Sami Vatanen is off the virus list but it sounds as if he won't be available.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Beefy went through his Schenn phase. Eventually we all move on.

 

[Rebels57]

The best scene is the BEST scene. Ever.

Fast Times convinced me at the very last minute to go to my Senior Prom. I asked my ex and she accepted. It was like 5 days before the prom. The night before, after my tux was rented and corsage purchased, she bailed on me. I ended up going on a blind date with a friend of a friend to my senior prom all thanks to Fast Times At Ridgemont High.

If I had a pizza in front of me right now, I wouldn't even have to chew. I'd Hoover that f***er down in one gulp. I am f***ing starving.

You may need to get checked for a parasite. You're always starving.

My prom date wasn't a blind date exactly, but I didn't know her well at all. She was insanely good-looking. I had the good sense to get blackout drunk within 30 minutes of getting to the hotel room we had gotten with a bunch of friends. I woke up in the morning to a knocking on the door. I was alone and surrounded by what could only be described as wreckage. And empty cans and bottles everywhere. Three of the hotel staff were at the door. I opened it and fled. Went home and passed out.

Turns out I left the tux jacket in the room. Had to slink back to get it. I don't remember how I got away with any of that, but I did.

I guess Myers returned to practice today. Not ready yet but close according to AV. Maybe we get him and Couts back next week to stabilize this shit show.

That's because I am responsible with calories, unlike you with your gravy.

It was assumed that my then girfriend and I were going to prom. She got the dress approx 4 months pre-prom. We also worked together part time and after awhile, it wasn't working out. And 2 months before prom, I ended things but she still wanted to go to the prom after spending so much on the dress. And seeing how we had dated for 6 months, I agreed.

1 month before prom, I started dating someone else and informed them of the prom situation. Given she went to a different school so would not be going, she hesitantly understood.

2 weeks before prom, the ex found out I was seeing someone else and things got nasty. Words were said between the 2 of them and I was in the middle. This went on for a week. So the weekend before prom, me and 2 friends did what needed to be done. We egged her friends house where she was staying for the week! Lol. Oh, and that friend was dating my friend....and were were set to double date to the prom.

So after denying we did it, it was off to prom day. That day, I got dressed while my girlfriend was with me, getting pre-prom pics with her. A kis goodbye, then it was off to pick up my buddy and the girls. Of course they want pics....at the same house I egged just days earlier. Then back to my place for pics by my parents with the girlfriend now gone.

Off to eat dinner. Small town of about 8,000 people so not too many options. Things got stressful at dinner with snide comments being handed out left and right. We get thru eating and the girls head to the washrooms by the exit while we pay. The girls come back and say "your girlfriend and her bitch friend are out there". Oh shit. I guess I should have told the gf where we were going so this didn't happen. So they all hang back as I go greet my gf with a laugh and a kiss. I ask them to leave for 5-10 minutes so we can get the hell out if there. They agree.

The drive to the school was silent except for "sure she didn't know we were going to be there". Yeah, like I wanted my gf to show up and see me at the restaurant with my ex before I spend all night with her at prom.

The prom itself, went well after the first 30 minutes or so. Post prom, it was time to drop them off and head home. It was approx 2 am at this point and about 1-2 miles from home....and I hear a thud. I have a flat tire. Having never changed a tire before, I leave the car and walk home. I leave a note for the sleeping parents where the car is. At 5am, I am awakened by mom regarding the note. I am told to get dressed as we are walking down to fix that flat as dad needs the car at 7 to go into work(only have 1 car). Another long walk and getting ragged out by another female. We change the tire then head home where I get to hear dad being pissed about mom having to go get the car. Can I just go to bed??

I slept till the afternoon then called the gf who wanted all the details post restaurant. I told her to swing by and get me and we could go to her place and I would tell her everything. And of course it was prom and I still need to get laid!

Hope you had a chuckle or 2 if you had the patience to read all this. Goodnight.

That is an excellent story!

I just remembered one factoid about my prom debacle..the night my ex bailed...the Flyers beat the Leafs in Overtime of a 1st round playoff game. I think it was the Mark Recchi in Triple OT...April 2003.

Is Canadian prom in March?

 

[ybnvs]

Other than Pokemon, I don't play any Nintendo stuff. I've never played a Kirby game in my life

I know less about Kirby than I do Pokemon, as both are absolutely foreign to me. The only reason I know about Kirby is because of Smash Bros on N64 way back in the day. I enjoyed playing as Kirby and using the Hoover vacuum move to steal other character's skills and abilities, which I guess is what the real Kirby does? Idk.

 

[Tripod]

Is Canadian prom in March?

Lol...no. What gave you that indication? If it was, the story would involve me walking in snow uphill, both ways to and from the car.

 

[Appleyard]

See... in the UK we finish high school at 15/16. (depending on date of birth, like ~25% of the year are not 16 when the year ends.)

Most places have a prom... but it is lame as hell. No alcohol there. Teachers all present all night making sure nothing fun happens.

So no-one who was cool went to ours. We hung out under a canal bridge that night instead and drank cheap alcohol.


Then when we finish "college" (if you go and carry on school until 18, which only like 50% of the population did back then) at 17/18 before going to "University" there is raaaarely an organised prom... unless your college/sixth form is joined to school and smallish.

As the college year groups at a lot of colleges is enormous and just impossible to get a big enough venue. (we had like 1600 people in our year at college.) So everyone just goes off in their own groups on the last day and gets hammered in the city centre.

That is exactly what Kirby does: eats enemies and gains their powers temporarily.

Kirby is a great song by Aesop Rock. That's all I know....

Oh, and I think a vacuum cleaner too?

I'm so dreading the Isles games. They suck the life out of hockey.

Way too much Lou Lam low event hockey in my years of watching. It's effective but man is it tough to watch. I don't know how people who don't drink can do it.

Lol, I don't drink alcohol but I'm in Canada, so I have cannabis

At least that way I can get a chuckle out of the games! And play guitar during breaks.

As a side note, what are people's thoughts on the new gameday production with Taryn and Scott?

Scott? Haven't noticed him, too focused on Taryn's outfits.
