While I was reading it, the Penguins scored another four goals.

I kid, I kid…

Philly should really consider putting a goalie in when they play.

I think the East belongs to Boston this year. I'm a Lightning season ticket holder and I have to admit that Boston might be a better team (when they are completely healthy).

My bag:

Taylor Made R7 (x-stiff).
Taylor Made Burner 2 irons (stiff)
Cleveland Wedges (gap and 60)

Bite your tongue. It far too early for that level of negativity.

Besides, in this season from hell, Boston not winning the Cup is all I got left.

Giroux got nothing for his hit on Letang. That’s probably not going to get anything. Minor fine at most.

Maybe it's just how I was raised, but if that was me who caught the second puck, I would have handed it to the little girl the player was trying to get the puck to, instead of my own kid. Sorry, son.

Have you not cup-checked anyone before?

There was a phase or two as kids when we'd do that. Didn't take long for people to start making sure the old supporter was where it needed to be.

Of course, kids are douchebags.

Well some people can remain douchebags even after they become adults. Maybe he's one of them.

Let me start off by saying I know nothing about hockey. I went to one game in my life and had beer dumped on me.  I have seen the game in short spurts on TV , but that's about it. 

Now my wife, and daughter love the game. They have been trying to get me to go to one of the local Las Vegas games. I made them a deal that if the Vegas team won their first playoff round, I would go. 

So I guess I am going to a few hockey games. Outside of buying a Vegas Team hat, and yelling at the appropriate times, I am going to assume I will be having a good time. I hear tell they serve cold beer. :beer:

   You should have a great time.  I haven’t been there to watch hockey, but Vegas is supposed to have one of the more entertaining fan experiences in the league.  

 Glad to see Anaheim swept.  I can’t stand that team.   

 Sharks and the Knights should be an interesting second round matchup.

Have fun. It should definitely be an interesting experience. 

Also appreciate the fact that you are seeing one of the more preposterous things in NHL history, a first-year expansion team that has dominated on the way to the playoffs. The NHL has traditionally had expansion drafts that assure the newcomer of being hopelessly bad.

Unless they wear different cups for hockey than baseball, a cup doesnt protect underneath like that...

Can't say that I've ever really compared them. Any baseball playing I ever did was without.

Also, I never meant to suggest a cup-check would be entirely painless. That was part of the point.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
