  1. I haven't dove into all the contracts, but I would guess this is a case of Petrovic being on a 2-way contract and the rest not. Most NHL contracts only allow demotion to the minors for specific things. so even if we wanted to play petrovic in the regular season, it would have taken an injury and depletion of our nhl-only reserves before call up. those rules don't apply in the playoffs (per se) so they can basically play anyone in the system and the staff clearly deemed Petro better than Dumba or Smith. Nils still isn't cleared to play and likely won't be for these playoffs - probably better that way.
  2. yeah, but it's no Chicago, amirite?!
  3. I know he was an austin treasure, but he drove me nuts. something about him was like nails on chalkboard. give me Blue Monday and Larry Monroe any day
  4. I mean, that's also not very far from the truth
  5. I'll see if I can find a non-ss version, but someone decided to make the Stars bald and give Pete hair and I'm fucking dying
  6. why are you here then?
  7. I'm not sure most people, and especially dotard, know what it takes to make a top secret aircraft (or anything, for that matter). The AF1(s) Boeing are working on require a level of scrutiny only outdone by NASA. I've known designers that work at Lockheed Martin who were married and working on different parts of the F35 and could not talk to each other about what they were working on. They get to the know the extent of their part and that is it. There's a reason these planes last as long as they do. They are literally the most exceptional vehicles on the planet. They're made to basically never fail. That takes a lot of effort and time and extreme scrutiny. Glad they won't be ready for this POS
  8. micropeen bald white nazis? I can hear the vaginas clamping shut all across the nation
  9. the funny part is he's talking about elmo
  10. isn't pornhub a canadian company? anyway, these people love to shoot themselves in the foot. let's see how quickly action is taken when the porn tap is turned off. lol, dipshits
  11. hope nobody had any open sores. yikes
  12. the lack of introspection, perhaps even more than the base idiocy, is the true harbinger of our downfall.
  13. the south has won 5 cups since then. not proud of that distinguishment, but fact nonetheless
  14. really? really?? you mean the same guy that threw out the pandemic handbook the prior admin left them to deal with exactly what they faced and we're supposed to not blame for shit like a historically bad stock market? it absolutely mattered who was in the oval office and he fucked it up colossally and literally millions of people died. I was there. so were you
  15. funny how few canadians understand hockey. not funny ha-ha, but funny nonetheless. I once had one their representatives tell me hockey should not exist below the mason-dixon line. at which point I asked him how long it's been since a canadian team won and he didn't know and shut the fuck up. lol. dildos, eh?
  16. we great yet?
  17. car companies are probably like lol whatever we're not gonna have gas cars much longer anyway
  18. right? twice picked the wrong decade to try to convince the american public the justice system, as currently implemented, is anything to be proud of and isn't being exceptionally manipulated by bad actors. admitting it's a dumpster fire in the middle of tire fire will go a long way to figuring out how to try to fix it. ignoring the obvious flaws and manipulations is what got us here
  19. wow, i had tried to give stone the benefit of the doubt on the miro injury (not really sure why), but now it seems even more intentional than it did previously. what a sad pos
  20. So when do we slot Miro back in and who comes out? There really isn't a good time to get a player back in the lineup after injury in the playoffs, but if we can manage to win tomorrow, I think you have to put him in for game 5 (assuming he's cleared). Got to start getting him reps and get him up to game speed. I think it would be difficult too to lift a d-man in his stead so it'll probably be a 7/11 alignment to start. I would normally say you take out Ceci or Lyubushkin, but that's 2/3 right-handed d-men in the lineup. Of the forwards, I think it's gotta be Blackwell, but he also hasn't played terribly. Some tough decisions for the coaching staff, but I have faith in them to get it as right as they can
  21. The distinguishing trait here seems to be the fact that it was not headed towards the net after the kick, but only headed there after the WPG player(s) hit it into the net
  22. Fair point. I'm guessing it doesn't because it was the goalie. I dunno
  23. I've finally read an explanation on the Petrovic goal and why it was ultimately allowed: the league determined it was kicked (it wasn't) although it was not kicked toward the goal - the kick actually sent the puck away from the goal. But Helle tried to block it, and it ended up deflecting into the goal. Therefore it was technically an own goal. Lol
