Well yeah but we can (legally) start drinking at age 18, i think it's 21 for you guys? So we have a better development program!

Also you guys seem to think good beer has "light" in the name, which should be a war crime. In fact in the small store next to my home, i'm not sure if they sell "light beer". It's like, you are drinking beer not making a conscious decision to live healthy.

What's next, "diet" deep fried chicken?

I Am Canadian. We drink at 12

Well, legal age is 21 here in the States but I didn't know a single American growing up who waited until then. Even I was straight-laced as they came until I turned 16 and it was all downhill from there.

Honestly, I don't really wish to defend light beer here (I don't mind Coors Light but Bud Light makes me want to gag) but it's not really about "dieting," it just tends not to fill you up as quickly, so you can drink more. But craft beers have exploded here in the US, most anywhere you go whether it's a private party or a bar/restaurant, there's usually at least one type of craft beer to be had. I honestly don't recall the last time I had a Coors out and about.

Now stuff like Michelob Ultra is more about avoiding carbs and all that nonsense, but even then I don't think people GAF about it--the fattening content of beer is alcohol, ain't no one skipping THAT.

It's water with a slight taste of beer.

And to the rest of your post, i'm all for it and agree.

What's it called when you are going to get drunk at home, alone, in your underwear - with EVERY intention of going out?

America officially lost its way with food when spray cheese was invented.

No sugar beers are the key to staying thin. Trust me I drunk 30 a day

 

[John Mandalorian]

Everyone knows that he's scoring more with the Avs but 21 games in, he's at .86 ppg for the season. His high ppg with Montreal was .51.

Hopefully, the Avs can get injured guys back and remain healthy after that. His scoring might even go up.

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

He might break his career high by the game 33. Ridiculous.

 

[Balthazar]

If there's such thing as a swiss army knife for a winger then Lehky is it. He won't look out of place on any of the first 3 lines, on PP1 or PK1.

You put him on the ice when you need a big goal, you put him on the ice when you need to defend a 1 goal lead...he literally can play any situation and be good at it.

 

[Ararana]

I'm old enough to remember when Barron and a 2024 3rd felt pricey.

Too bad he doesn't play C.

It helps to play with MacKinnon and Rantanen. Of course Lehkonen is also playing great, but let's not expect the same scoring when he's bumped down.

Yup. Once everyone comes back he’s going to be bumped off PP1 I would imagine. I could see that line staying together at ES but I don’t think he’ll be more productive when ever is healthy.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Someone mentioned this before, but Lehky is what we wanted JTC to be. Defensively responsible, jack of all trades, fits in nicely wherever you need him.

If there is one thing Avs are good at, it's finding leeches.

 

[Chiarelli]

Difference is we signed this leech long term before he got the Avs stat boost.

I can register points in the NHL if I was playing with Rants and Mack. I can barely register points in beer league ice hockey.

 

[Pokecheque]

Anyone know how Barron's doing? I believe he's in Laval, right?

Had a shitty camp but he's doing great in Laval. There's no room with the Habs right now so they can't recall him but apparently he'd deserve it.

Habs have too many NHLers right now, they have to healthy scratch a different dman and a forward every game.

You're breaking my heart
