Miscellaneous NHL Discussion XLIX: Covid Cup Edition

is Evander Kane still playing

I wouldn't shit on him nor reaves or anyone else. Can't even imagine the pressure they must be under to do one thing or another and media hounding them at the same time for their sensational click baity quotes. Not everyone likes to be put on a spot. Thing back to Bernier's Mandela comments

Yeah especially in hockey where color is the vast minority, they’re probably being baited for comments everyday since the return. I’m not saying they don’t believe in their actions, just that I am empathetic of the tough situation they’ve been thrust into. Most athletes (most people, period) aren’t going to be deft at public policy, and figuring out how to solve the world’s problems is an overwhelming task for anyone, even the government.

So we playing hockey today or nah?

I hear it’s postponed until tomorrow per ESPN (I know, I know). Not sure if that means we pick up at noon tomorrow as originally planned, or not.

No.

NHL resumes Saturday, when the Flyers play is TBD.

 

[Amorgus]

It's 9:06am EST. Do you know where your heroes and villains are and do their fans buy orange jerseys?

lol wow a bumbling fool

 

[ajgoal]

This one.

I can't hear what he's saying.

 

[Amorgus]

I spent a good 15 minutes laughing, repeating "WTF?" and trying to hear and comprehend every word. Gibberish of that level would make him a prime presidential candidate this year.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

I can't hear what he's saying.

Because the sound is too muffled/low or because you didn't hit the volume button? Either way it's probably for the best. It was incoherent rambling.

I watched it probably 20 times watching it on my TV on repeat and then 50 more on my phone once I recorded it.

It's Doc. I have it on mute.

I actually tried with the volume all the way up yesterday and couldn't figure out what was going on.

I believe he's trying to say that Marchand is a villain and some people root for villains which is why they're Flyers fans. But he suffered aphasia as he declared this. I should probably be offended that he refered to our team as villains but to be completely honest that was why I started watching them as a kid.

I think he was talking about Patrick Maroon though.

I think he was talking about Patrick Maroon though.

They showed Marchand after he said "There's a villain in Boston" so I assumed they were talking about our favorite Rat.

 

[FlyerFaithful17]

Extremely selfishly, the new schedule suits me way better.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

Games 6 and 7 not back to back now. Huzzah?

 

[orangey]

That's a much better schedule for me too. Yay!

 

[FlyerFaithful17]

That's a much better schedule for me too. Yay!

Yeah, I would’ve missed all of Game 6 and maybe some of Game 4, originally. I’m also glad there’s only one back to back and after some extra rest too.

 

[MacDonald4MVP]

Cmon we won't need 7 games.

You’re too kind. If it was time for Milbury to leave, then Emrick should go as well.
