they traded for 2 of their best 5 players in back to back seasons. being aggressive (and having the assets handy) when players like reinhart and tkachuk come available is a big reason they're as good as they are

vegas won on the backs of doing the same with stone and eichel

Florida also acquired their number one D, Forsling, on waivers.

My kid brought home Boston Pizza from school on Friday. She hated it. I had to eat the rest of her kids size personal pizza. Came with a coupon for a free pizza and she told me she doesn’t want it.

Even 7 year olds know Boston Pizza is trash.

i hate wasting food and eat as much half chewed food my kid didn’t finish as anyone. but man, i draw the line at eating half a cardboard pizza that’s been congealing unrefrigerated in a backpack for presumably 4+ hours.

on the hot lunch days my kid comes home and i ask, why’d you bring this home? and most of the time the container has decomposed and it’s leaked all through his backpack. and he says the teacher made him and i’m like, who does she think is going to eat this tiny container of mac and cheese that’s been sitting out for half a day?

I used to work at Boston Pizza for 5-6 years as a cook and closer, during the cup run in 2011.

One evening I was working with my colleague to close everything down, and I stuck my entire right hand into an active deep frier. That was the 2nd dumbest thing I ever did. The 1st dumbest I ever did was, after rinsing my hand frantically with cold running water and giant blisters started forming on my palm, I made the incredibly wise decision to peel one of them off.

Went to ER, waited about 30 minutes, doctor had a look, nurse slathered white cream all over my hand, wrapped it in bandaged and off I go~. First night I couldn't sleep at all because, you know, I had a deep fried f***ing hand. But 2nd day and onward, I felt nothing anymore. Next 3 weeks I had to go to Burnaby Hospital super track every other day to change the dressing, and have the nurse cut off some of the dried dead skin. Lucky for me, I seem to have the healing power of Wolverine, and made a 100% recovery with no loss of function and no scars. My right hand was good as new and ready to conquer the world for the glory of my Communist overlords again.

This Rangers-Panthers series might be the most lopsided 2-2 series I've ever seen. The Rangers basically helpless in getting the puck out of their own zone in both games in Florida.

The miracle is that both games went to OT.....would have been a travesty if the Rangers had scored to go up 3-1. Now it's down to a best-of-three.

The Rangers are relying on Shesterkin and horseshoes and rabbits feet, to stay in this series. If things don't change in a hurry, I don't see how the Panthers will be denied.
