Shh…
Listen – in the distance…
It’s faint right now, but familiar. It’s a comforting sound, one that brings to mind hope, and glory.
But also pain. The heartache of allowing yourself to be vulnerable. To wanting something you know you can’t have.
Yet, you must. You need to feel alive. And this will give you that feeling again. It’s not a first love or a fond memory, but it is something you need to feel… alive.
OH YEAH – HOCKEY IS BACK, MOTHERFUCKERS! IT IS A TIME TO REJOICE, AND LET THE SEVEN TRUMPETS BE SOUNDED BY THE SEVEN ANGELS!

With this in mind, there will be no playoff previews until after the play-in round is over. No one cares about the NCAA play-in games except for that school’s fans; such as it is with the NHL. When it’s Cup time, it’ll be preview time.
Still – look at this bounty we have been given, and rejoice in the Lord.

Chicago’s my only hated team that won today
pretty good teevee, that
ET LE BUT!!!!!!!!
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I was all excited there was another ice ball game, then saw that one the “teams” was Winnipeg.
lol, guess it’s time to rest up for tomorrow’s F1 race.
That was bad.
Can’t remember when I last saw two penalty shots in the same OT period.
Woooooo!!
Hockey on one screen, soccer in the other, and AFL to come on ESPN2. Not too shabby.
Agreed.
Can’t anyone bait Milbury into saying something about having threesomes with his coworkers? So he can get fired as well? That would be great.
I cannot imagine you’d need to trick him into dropping a racial slur or four.
O’er time
Brass Bonanza always brings a tear to my eye.
Mostly because it startles the shit out of me; as a Whalers fan we rarely heard the goal celebration song.
I live in Calgary but am from Winnipeg. I have way too many bets on this series.
I went to took up the playoff history of these teams head-to-head, and Wikipedia tried to tell me that they’ve never met before, but that the Flames did battle the “Arizona Coyotes” three times in the 80s.
lol at hockey in Arizona. No way.
I remember the Flames kicking the shit out of the Jets in the 80’s. I also remember the year they left for smokes only to somehow come back all these years later. SEE DAD COULD COME BACK RIGHT?
“Oh look at me, my name’s Shea Weber, known for dirty hits my entire career but I somehow can’t manage to end Crosby or Malkin’s career, durr durr”
“Ha, they used to give me Norris Trophies for that shit.” — Scott Stevens
Oh we were supposed to end racism! This whole time? My bad guys.
All of this time I have been fighting FOR childhood obesity as well. Mixed signals for sure.
I’ve been saying it Philip instead of Phillippe Dano. The French must be incensed.
J’Accuse!
Gonna have to ask that the Canadiens go back to not being shit
What a punchable face. How does anybody resist?
The “rulebook” says that’s a 10 minute misconduct but for Crosby? Nothing.
Keep talking like that and he’s going to get one of his friends to beat you up so he can sucker punch you without any fear for his personal safety
Counterpoint: I fucking love him!
In your defense, you haven’t met him.
I have served him at the bar I worked at, sad to say, he is a really nice guy.
Was that after you punched him in the face?
Crosby just flopped to the ground and cried to the ref, simply because he sensed this comment
If he was on your team, you would love him.
Every four years he is, and I do. Then I go right back to hating him.
Like Marchand, Tkachuk’s etc.
No, Marchand I hate even when he’s on Team Canada. That shit runs deep.
Crosby hatred is just ordinary sports hatred.
Did Marchand cause the beginning of the spread of chartreusevirus when he licked that guy? People are saying he did.
If he licks someone in these playoffs, he will get a sternly worded letter from Bettman. Very stern indeed.
Ha, just kidding. The Jacobs family owns Bettman’s balls. He ain’t doing shit.
Tom fucking Brady.
Crosby probably. Tchakucku possibly. Marchand no fucking way.
During that same event Marchand got so drunk I had to walk him out the back way and throw him in a cab. Sooo wasted.
You had a chance tom murder Brad Marchand, or at least steer him into the frozen wastelands of Alberta, (I assume they stay frozen year round, as I am an idiot), and didn’t take it!?
Shall we say pistols at dawn? My second shall call on yours to address the particulars.
ole ole ole ole ole
DFO is fortunate to have CN sherpas like beerglassron ushering us through this pan-diddilly-am-BAM-dimic.
Shit, was just reminded that the Canadiens have a Domi on their team; consider all my previous statements under review.
Whenever I need cheering up, I always put on this little video.

Watched that at a buddy’s apartment in Hartford. Still remember it like it was yesterday. Such a great game.
As always, fuck Duke.
NSFDFO! Great moments in cinematic history.

I would like very much for the Canadiens to win this series and also the #1 draft pick so they can draft a French-Canadian player who will be out of the league in 5 years
I think I could suffer a Penguins win if it meant they didnt get the #1 pick.
I will be so happy when Malkin’s goony ass retires, moreso than even Crosby.
Then he’ll be melted down so all the fancy Soviet Steroids permeating his body can be reclaimed.
Goony ass is also a Balls search term.
Followed by Truffle Butter.
Of course.
The number 1 franchise I wouldn’t mind seeing wiped out due to charmandervirus is of course Boston, the Brouins. But number 2 is probably a combo of these teams: the Pangquins players and Montreal fans.
Hawkey Bourble!
THINGS YOU HATE TO SEE
NO NEED FOR REPLAY JUST RUN UP AND SNAP HTE BALL
A rare obituary only read by the 2019 Senate, apparently.
It me, the Bill Hicks of the evening
LOL
Deja vu!
shit
I feel like an idiot now
cause I was tooo damn lazy to scroll down…
bye guys.
You’re a good dog. 12/10. STAY!
found a funny:

Is Michael Bubble trapped in The Bubble?
Michael Bubble is the less successful follow-up to Chelsea Dagger
FFS is Buble trapped in the bubble?
I guess I owe you a beer.
At least one.
I didn’t realize MAGAts were so health conscious, seeing as 90% of the people I saw without masks today (and have for the last couple of months) are jogging, bicycling, dog walking, or being 20-40 year selfish white assholes with enough income to live in my neighborhood. Or they are assholes who HAVE to go eat out in converted patios. Same goes with my brother in West Hollywood, known most recently as where those protesters burned LAPD cars outside of CBS Studios. I know the plural of anecdote isn’t data, but pretending like it’s just those people acting like selfish, disease-spreading vermin is why this pandemic will never end.
Let’s see, bikers, runners, dog walking, etc. I suppose these people are indoors, within 6-10 feet of others? Large crowds? No. That’s not how it spreads, jesus fucking christ, and you called Hippo stupid for enjoying photos of women who smoke. This sounds like just juvenile envy because you are a fucking shut-in. You fucking idiot.
Steal?
We give that shit away like we’re breathing
Looking forward to Trudeau appearing in solidarity with BLM before the game
To be fair to Habs fans, they were only trying to show their support for a player and this was back when no one knew how offensive blackface was. 2011 was a different time.
It’s fine.
Time to go to the BBQ.
Scotchy’s family bbq looks nice.
I was thinking more of a COVID pit, but this works fine and is a touch more light hearted.
Give him some drum sticks!

Both of these still look the same.
??? seamless gif. It’s great!
I only steal the best…..
Well, sometimes.
1 please.
To start.
Jesus Christ, why is Drew Brees still in the news?
His PR team is either good, or not good.
PENGUINS HAWKEY
I am taking the last 2 weeks of parental leave starting Monday when Mrs Sharkbait starts her new job. I plan on watching as much hockey as I can. Baby shark is going to learn a lot of new words, as well as receive an in depth explanation of who Denis Potvin is, and why he sucks.
Don’t forget to swear about Billy Smith!
If Baby Shark understands offsides after 2 weeks they’ll be way ahead of the sports watching public.
“Denis Potvin, you suck. Felix Potvin? … You also suck, get out.”
– Ron Hextall
Prime Ron Hextall is not one I would want to mess with.
He probably wasn’t as intimidating at that point, but Felix really came out of nowhere that night
They need a good education and you can’t really start too early.
The Hartford Whalers sucked. Their fan support sucked. Their logo is fine, but hardly some wonder of creativity. Blue and green are a terrible combination.
I’m no fan of Bettman’s Southron Ambitions, but the franchise actually prospered and won Cups in Carolina.
Nostalgia for the Whalers is like pining for your shittiest ex-girlfriend.
RELEASE THE KRAKEN!
Winter Wind intensifies
I just googled that. +1
Allons-y Habs!

gotta rewatch the show
But found BObs Burgers on Prime, so after that’s done
With them interviewing every player they can get their hands on today, all I hear is the letterkenny interview bits

I don’t understand how any rational person hasn’t opted out of MLB/NFL/CFB.
Stay the fuck home! Or in a bubble.
el beisbol is just an incredibly hamfisted attempt to break the union (at least, that’s my only hypothesis), I’m expecting mass walkouts soon – which management apparently thinks will make THEM look GOOD
They’ll also be happy to stop losing money hosting games.
Ayo I sent you an invite to the TWBS Mem. FF league because the NFL is just as reckless as beisbol so they playing.
Got it. All HOX for me, thx.
Also, is what timezone is the draft time? Show 8pm for me and I’m in PST. Is that correct?
Yahoo is weird. It is 8MT but I think they attribute it to Arizona which never changes their time.
Pedant peeve. We are all in daylight time (EDT, CDT, MDT, PDT) until we set the clocks back to standard time this fall. I see this mislabeling a lot in the industry I work in, and whose employees should know better.
Wait, so does that mean Arizona time is 1 or 2 or 0 hours behind PDT now?
EDIT: The answer is 0! Wild, what a country.
I think it is 9 pm on Thursday there.
LOL, nevermind. Yahoo adjusts for my timezone already.
but not to lose the playoff teevee moneys – then again, that is like MONTHS away, so only a dipshit libtard would think/worry about that
oh, U NOE BeerRob is a 5-star man!!
And at least 2 others have given him 5 stars.
