  1. probably the reason why Scheif passed on that breakaway against Ottawa.
  2. missed the game - why did he get tossed?
  3. Who is "Danger"? Is Anthony Weiner playing for the Jets now?
  4. I noticed this too. Toronto's defence is going to get smoked. They don't come close to matching ours. And that's one of the reasons we won, we just ground them into the ground. They are going to have a hard time making it past Tampa or Boston, both pretty good teams.
  5. Edler and Tanev? I can't think of too many others. Tanev was a rookie that year or close to it. Total house-cleaning.
  6. So Becky's husband died. What happened to Darlene's husband? And did DJ adopt his daughter or is his wife African American?
  7. I wasn't a fan of the original show but I will keep watching. Looking forward to more back and forths between Roseanne and Jackie about Trump and Hillary for sure. I want to see what other social issues they deal with too. I assume gun control is going to be high on the list given the whole Parkland thing going on right now. They hinted at it when Dan was looking for his gun in the last episode, and finally found it in the freezer in an ice cream container.

  9. agreed. As to her support of Trump, she laid it out on Jimmy Kimmel pretty well, I thought.
  10. I thought it was great that a TV show finally had the balls to talk about it. These rifts are going on all across the US right now, and a lot of families are still broken up and hurting from the election result. I thought the show handled it well in terms of both sides (Trump and Hillary) getting a chance to give and receive commentary on the weaknesses of their positions and political views (and yes, both sides had a lot of weaknesses). Few shows do this nowadays (Last Man Standing comes to mind) for fear of offending anybody and so we end up with just hours of mindless banal sitcom dreck. The second episode was also pretty brave as they dealt with a boy (Roseanne's grandson) who is questioning his gender and experimenting with wearing dresses to school. Dan gives his grandson a knife to take to school as he knows his grandson is going to get bullied, and sure enough, he gets bullied, but he deals with it by giving his knife to the bully to make him go away. It dealt with a lot of issues including bullying, gender, and how traditional families have to adjust to the new social issues of today, and I thought they did a good job with a difficult subject. They also managed to throw in the "woman's right to choose" issue with their daughter Becky wanting to sell off one of her eggs to a child-less woman (Sarah Chalke, who played Becky off and on in the original run), and how Dan was having a hard time with that. Very brave TV. Wish more shows were like this one. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2018/03/30/why-roseanne-reinforces-a-myth-about-trump-supporters/?utm_term=.a004620b62d4
  11. It was better than good.
  12. I've seen Seinfeld perform live twice now (he was just in Penticton late last year, yeah, I know, why Penticton of all places) and he always gives the same answer when asked if Seinfeld will ever come back - "I'm too old, I'm too tired, and I'm too rich".
  13. have it on the PVR - will watch today. Looking forward to it and like the cast, though Mrs. KBF won't watch it because there's some guy in it from her Outlander show that she hates.
  14. It's all about the flow!!!
  15. And if the hockey thing doesn't work out he can always go sell couches for his dad.

  17. LOL - and there's no doubt in my mind that Germans live in Germany.
  18. Laine is looking a bit frustrated out there. Good to see him pop one in the S/O last night.
  19. "Illinois Nazis....pfft....". - Ellwood Blues "I hate Illinois Nazis" - Jake Blues
  20. I haven't noticed as many errors/just plain giving up on the puck in his own zone like in prior years, however I don't like Toby in the playoffs. At least not in the first three rounds where we are going to be grinding it out against teams like Nashville and San Jose. In the finals vs. Pittsburgh or Tampa or Boston, ok, get Toby back in there because now it's about speed and puck handling instead of slamming heads into the boards.
  21. Don't really care what his contract is, as it will probably be in the Swedish Elite league, or somewhere in Europe.
