GDT: Game #40 - New York Rangers @ Montreal Canadiens - 7pm EST, MSG

[Mandar]

A grease bomb dinner and 94g of protein? Your farts must be apocalyptic

thats what Kravy keeps telling him

I'm dieting, I normally eat whatever I want and play hockey 3x+ per week & workout daily. Currently have an ankle injury so I can't do much right now, so I have to diet. But today I'm going to eat yummy food but still stay under my calories. What should I eat for the game tonight?

Should I eat the famous EdJovanovski meal of Pizza Hut? I would be going with a small Cheese Lovers Pan Pizza (1260cal | 60g protein)
or
2 Beef Buddy Burgers & 1 Chicken Buddy Burger from A&W and a Medium Onion Ring from Burger King (1415cal | 40g protein)

The Pizza Hut would leave me with enough calorie room to have a protein shake which would bring me to 94g of protein

Hard to say, 94g of protein should be enough to keep me satiated despite the caloric deficit. Meat is quite satiating though too, but shockingly small amount of protein for how many calories that is.

My usual Pizza Hut order is 1 Large Cheese Lovers Pan, 1 Large Cheese Lovers Stuffed, and Mozza Sticks. And I eat almost the whole thing in 1 sitting, normally have about 3 slices of pizza left.

what? no breadsticks? gotta have the Pizza Hut breadsticks!

Montreal is struggling this year. If they can shut down that top line should have no issues getting a win in this one. After a great game against a Top team these games always make me nervous. But I am feeling pretty good.

OOPS I definitely meant breadsticks not mozza sticks they have the best breadsticks!
I sometimes get mozza sticks as well but they aren't ideal for delivery. Mozza sticks are something you want to eat pretty much immediately after being cooked, if they sit for 15min they're nowhere near as good

my faith in your meal is restored.

Do you have an air fryer? reheating the mozz could be messy, but can be revitalized in an air fryer.

I have a dedicated Emeril Lagasse air fryer. I don't want to be a brag.

I'm struggling to find them all in a collective spot, but Jaro seems to have good numbers in that building

I've never seen any other country's fans boo & taunt kids the way Canadians do. Canadian hockey fans are a significant part of why I became a fan of an American NHL team.

Tell that to the folks of Antigonish NS who adopted Team Austria at the tournament and Canadian fans who supported them every game. Sure, there were Canadian fans who were giving Team USA some noise against other teams as well as last night. Team Canada never gets any noise from fans when they play away? Maybe it has been so loud because every game has been packed to the rafters. When have even the relegation matches ever been sell outs?

What's wrong with pizza hut?! Got this delicious pizza from them yesterday!

Thats a giraffe

I do but I rarely ever use it, do you guys prefer leftover pizza cold or reheated? I feel like most people I talk to prefer it cold. I prefer it reheated and as blasphemous as it sounds, I like it reheated in the microwave lol. I find it retains its moisture better, when you reheat it on the stove or in the oven the crust gets harder, and it dries out more.

Are you one of the people in the crowd during the infomercials they play on NHL center ice after a game ends?

2 points please AND smuggle Caufield with them on the way out. Leave the offer sheet on the table somewhere for Gorts.

I had a craving for chopped liver with raw onion and new pickles. HEAVEN!!!!!!

Now THAT'S funny. I just made my own fresh chopped chicken liver with carmelized onions that I had made a couple days prior. Yummy, and I ain't even Jewish! But, somebody very wise once told me.....You don't have to be Jewish to eat Levy's.

 

[EdJovanovski]

All this Pizza Hut talk has me really hungry now, might say who cares about the ankle injury and hop on the Peloton so I can eat a larger portion of the greatest pie known to man!

My X-ray report said it found nothing and said no soft tissue injury either, but an X-ray can't really see soft tissue very well can it? Hmm
Would have to wait a year+ for an MRI in this God forsaken country

On the bike I go so I can enjoy some guilt free Pizza Hut!

 

[Ruggs225]

I cant even remember the last time inhad pizza hut.

Oddly enough i had dominoes for the first time in like 10 years a couple weeks ago. It was heavenly and brought back instant memories of sundays in college.

Thats what the Hospital doc said when they did a CT scan of my head (from the concussion/car accident) He found NOTHING!

 

[haveandare]

You're right lol, I'm always paranoid about cooking meat because I don't want to undercook it so I usually make it well done and then it's dry & gross

Meat thermometer is definitely worth it. I was the same way

I'm not Jewish either -- I did grow up in a well represented Jewish neighborhood, so I had some knowledge of the goodies to be had. (FYI -- I had raw onions.)

Why do so many fitness influencers do it? Is it really unhealthy for you or are you saying it's not good in terms of building muscle? I don't actually want to build much muscle since I'm not very tall (5'9") and a hockey player w/ a very mesomorph bodytype. I naturally have very muscular legs, I feel like big muscles on my sort of frame make me look shorter/stubby. My ideal bodytype is like those shirtless guys they used to have outside of Abercrombie stores. So even though I'm eating lots of protein its not cuz I want big muscles I just know protein is the most satiating macro, and I want to be slim/lean not skinny-fat. I have a babyface that stores a lot of fat, so I need to keep a pretty low BF% not to look 12

That sounds like way too much examining and overanalyzing oneself. I mean, jeez......why don't people do like I have done for 62 years. Just accept the fact that I am good looking and try NOT TO mess with perfection, the way GOD made me. It's easier.

Add THAT to this epic GDT. Your welcome.

or just become fat like the rest of us

I took a personality test... it came back negative.

Our GDT's really are the best, idk if it's because of having one of the larger fanbases or that we have lax mods; but other teams GDT's tend to be strictly hockey talk. Ours is like we're a community.

But to address your earlier point, yea it's sad. I envy you older guys who grew up before social media, dating apps, etc. It's a much different world today. I have no memory of life without the internet, iPhones were already a thing when I was still in Elementary school.

I kind of feel like it was just as bad before social media in terms of social pressure - culture was way more monolithic and it was a lot harder to find niche communities or groups that went against it. It was hard but different for sure.
