Last time I showed interest in a hockey game at Salt Lake City....



I f***ing loved that team.

Perhaps my favourite hockey play of all time that Mario fake… drool

I was 145lbs out of high school, was 165 until Covid… then got up to 195 in march, and now dropped back to about 175. Happy with that as I am a bit more muscular now.

Do they always start their games at 8 p.m. local? I was hoping for a little Mountain Time Zone reprieve... :(


We have an SLC-based fan in this forum?!

Have you been there for a while? Last offseason must have felt like winning the jackpot!
I haven't followed their schedule this year, but from the Delta Center website the games usually start at 7 MST. Not sure why the late start tonight.

I'm from North Vancouver, but I've lived here almost 20 years. I was excited for the team to move at first. However, the corresponding sales tax increase to pay for the arena upgrades that is coming with the move significantly lowered that excitement.

Glad someone understands. I've never heard anyone say that they are cm and kg's in Canada. My wife is a nurse and she said no one has ever given her their height and weight in cm and kg's in Canada.
It's pretty simple to understand really, if you look at measurement standards from a perspective of familiarity and point of reference. You get used to something and that becomes a point of reference for similar comparison, then it doesn't matter if one standard is better than the other it's hard to change. We have a mix now because baby boomers grew up under imperial so in the home they still use feet and lbs to measure kids growing up while externally you have metric in places like grocery stores and on road signs. While other generations since the boomers have been having kids it's hard to break the cycle of imperial measurement in the home. You'd need to have parents that start kids on cm/kg and then they'd grow up accustomed to that, but it doesn't really happen.
