They gambled on PLD and Strome and it paid off. That's really the long and short of it for WSH. I wrote them off after the PLD like majority of ppl. Also Logan Thompson broke out in a big way this year. That was the difference.

Pinnacle have hung a line and I would love opinions.
Ovechkin to break the record this season (895 goals or more).
Yes -223 (bet $223 to win $100)
No +185 (bet $100 to win $185)
He'd need eleven goals in the remaining 22 games the Capitals have. Right now he's scored 31 goals in 44 games this season.

Thought this was pretty cool. Hadn’t heard it before.

If the Flames had a consistent PPG forward and a high end offensive d-man, they'd be way up there too.

Crazy to think he’s scoring at a 58 goal pace over an 82 game season, which would make his 39 year old season his second highest scoring season of his career had he had played the full season.

He'll put up another 30+ next season at this pace.

Do you separate R. Kelly’s and Diddy’s music from all the rape? Just enjoy it.

How about 90% of actors from the Epstein list? How about the Bible from Catholic church pedophilia. How about false equivalence from calgarypuck?

Add Jay Z's name to that list. I heard him on the radio and thought I don't want to hear what this rapist has to say.
That's the key, they are sharing their opinions and attitudes in the form of art. I don't want to hear a rapists opinions. Though I think that rape is an extreme an intollerable example. Political stance is less binary, it is not purely good/bad.
Anyhow more to my point, I don't watch hockey to absorb the opinions and attitudes of the players. Truth is 99% of elite hockey players I have met are huge douschebags. I don't follow the interviews, or social media content. I watch them play a game, most times with the broadcaster volume off.

I was under the impression that Putin had cancer or something.. maybe he could just stop living already. Maybe then some Russians who are just afraid of him could come out and admit it.
I’m sure 85% of them hate him and are just afraid for their families

This is why Zadorov is a man and the rest are boys.

Enjoy the rape or the music?
Everyone is gonna have their own line. For me R. Kelly and Diddy are in a category of their own and I would never support them in any way, including streaming.
Ovi of course is nowhere near their level of evil. He’s mildly supportive of a dictator but possibly under the threat of harm to himself and his family. Until Ovi comes out and says that the only good Ukrainian is a dead Ukrainian I’m gonna give him a pass.
