JCon

My experience has been mixed. I only worked from home a couple of times pre-pandemic, even though my position allows for that flexibility. I was home 100% until May last year and now work a blended schedule. I split my workload between things that are best done in the office and those that are better done at home. I appreciate the social interaction when I'm in the office and find I'm much more active. But, home allows me to work uninterrupted and saves me money. With everything, it depends upon the type of work and how it's organized.

We are ruled by a handful of corporations and this gov't has done nothing to help. They could have blocked mergers and introduced new measures to protect consumers. They have chosen the opposite. Even this is siding with a couple of mega-corps over other mega-corps.

Yeah but freedom. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not enough!

And, hopefully, Sheif will be gone.

Secure the crossover before August.

WJ5 does not always get the sexy stats but he's so ridiculously great.

Story of the game is turnovers, Forde? Really?

Green or Red, CoFaj still sucks. I told my son, right after the big play, this is where CoFaj throws a pick. He didn't disappoint.

Houston!

I expect it.

I miss Prokup.

I'd rather take a ride on the Oceangate.

I do like the play calling with all the different run looks. Should open up the offense in the second half.

What I wouldn't give to hear Cuthbert call another game! Marshall is nearly as bad as Nielsen.

Remember when Forde was going on about player safety, then goes quiet during a neck-twisting facemask?

How do they not see the facemask? Even with incompetent reffing, the command centre should see that. Gross.

We really deserve better broadcasters. TSN is such garbage.

Duane Forde is drunk and not watching this game.

If they win at home in 2021, everything looks so much different. We got the bounces at the end of that game. Also think we deserved to win it too but a bounce goes the other way and Steinauer never buys another drink in that town again. And, yet, here we are.

I can't wait for the rain delay to end in the Yankees game. This is painful to watch.

I was curious, so I pulled the list of IIHF World Junior Championship Directorate award winners for best goalies in the tournament and added their draft position and draft year: 1999 Roberto Luongo 4th, 1997 2000 Rick DiPietro 1st, 2000 2001 Tomáš Duba 217th, 2001 2002 Kari Lehtonen 2nd, 2002 2003 Marc-André Fleury 1st, 2003 2004 Al Montoya 6th, 2004 Jets Legend 2005 Marek Schwarz 17th, 2004 2006 Tuukka Rask 21st, 2005 Toronto 2007 Carey Price 5th, 2005 2008 Steve Mason 69th, 2006 Noice. 2009 Jacob Markström 31st, 2008 2010 Benjamin Conz Undrafted 2011 Jack Campbell 11th, 2010 2012 Petr Mrázek 141st, 2010 2013 John Gibson 39th, 2011 2014 Oscar Dansk 31st, 2012 2015 Denis Godla Undrafted 2016 Linus Söderström 95th, 2014 2017 Felix Sandström 70th, 2015 2018 Filip Gustavsson 55th, 2016 2019 Pyotr Kochetkov 36th, 2019 2020 Joel Hofer 107th, 2018 2021 Devon Levi 212th 2020 2022 Jesper Wallstedt 20th 2021 2023 Adam Gajan 35th, 2023 Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IIHF_World_Junior_Championship_Directorate_award_winners

Good guy with a gun theory goes to h*** every time it's tested.
