Last time I showed interest in a hockey game at Salt Lake City....
I f***ing loved that team.

Ah yes, I forgot about Liam O'Brien. If he plays tonight, what's the over/under before he does something stupid and dangerous?
I am toxic

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... 
Have you been there for a while? Last offseason must have felt like winning the jackpot!
We have an SLC-based fan in this forum?!

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

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.
Di Giuseppe & Karlsson
- If Di Giuseppe didn’t get hurt, he would have been recalled earlier
- Di Giuseppe has been skating really well
- Karlsson is playing really well
- Wanted to get a couple of guys up to practice with the team
- May or may not get into a game
- Demko starting tonight
- Giving Lankinen another day to recover from the flu
- Could have played tonight but wanted to give him an extra day
- Easy choice for goaltending because there isn’t a wrong choice
- Coached a lot of their players
- Really impressed with Clayton Keller
- Team skates well, well-coached, & getting good goaltending
- First time there
- Had been to Salt Lake City one time before
- Looking forward to the fans
- Keller has adapted and learned new tricks
- Won’t play tonight but good possibility to play tomorrow
It’s very close in the standings right now, Canucks need to make some headway - starting now with Utah

It's a wolf v2.0
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.
I remember this one! It was my first experience with a soaker. Could really squirt.
Heh, fair enough. I mostly only ever go to one Sens game a year -- when the Canucks are in town -- but I do love having the local team here just for that.
That is kind of how it is in the US isn't it? A sales tax to help pay for stadiums and arenas. Typically either a hotel/entertainment tax targeted at mostly visitors or for those who spend in that entertainment area.
Still surprised it is a reno and not a new building since they are a lock to host the 2034 winter games. And given the costs that seattle incurred and what AZ would have been had they done a reno to accommodate the coyotes, it's almost better to go new than do that major a structural reno.
I loved it on my one visit. It honestly felt a lot like Vancouver, with mountainous surroundings and similar urban design, and the people were very nice.

Is that legendary Kings’ goalie Rob Stauber’s son? I loved Stauber in NHL ‘94 for some reason. Same with Rick Knickle.
