Crosby is out for today’s game. Apparently, McDavid will wear the ‘C’
Odd to replace an injured captain, unless that is an international rule

Yes, it is an international rule to name another captain if the original one is injured, but to name McDavid is a bad choice because E=NG

Is there any Finland politics or political leader we can spew about. Am I getting this right?

Sadly, not any that are sociopathic tyrants.

One thing that you could do, which always helps, is to take an argument from another thread and bring it into this one.

You literally said this in the other thread "Miss the days when hockey chat was hockey chat and people kept their personal political crap to themselves"

And now you start it back up in this thread?
Bold choice. Let's see how it plays out.

Your right ... I guess only a select few are able to post things. I kept politics out of the my post on other thread but was attacked. All I gave was my brief statement that I was born in Canada and live in the USA and missed hockey chats. Enjoy your threads. Calgary puck is insufferable these days.

Neat. My point is there is no need to re-ignite that argument in a completely separate thread particularly when you were just complaining about things being off topic.
As Norm would say the, what hurts the most is the hypocrisy.

Bennett back. Reinhart 13th forward. That’s good.

A custom brace makes it certainly seem like some sort of knee injury. Hopefully he's not done for the season. The Penguins trying to get into the playoffs has been very compelling. This could certainly spark new debate over if the NHL should even but at the Olympics.
