Well I definitely don't advocate taking everything Z says as a holly script. It's his opinion, and in a way it might reflect an opinion players have of Calgary. We as fans are not often exposed to what NHLers think of Calgary, Canada, and things that occur in their daily lives outside of hockey.

That's why I was really debating avoiding this topic in general. On my end I just translated his thoughts without attempting to correct things like waiting for dental. I'm guessing he just didn't need to go to the dentist here yet, so he just put it in the general category of healthcare services.

Finally, I think it's easier to get things out of context whenever they're translated. I try to get the message across, but sometimes it's difficult because everyone reads and comprehends something slightly different. I simply thought he was having a conversation of his impressions. It wasn't like he was going into a political debate on the subject.
