I thought it read like some sort of monologue from a Metal Gear Solid game, but couldn't figure it out myself.

Good Effort on the GDT!

Hope the Flames win today. Hopefully the potential return of Smith will rile up the boys. Just win!

Loved the game day thread op Scorpion. Got half way through wondering what I was reading. Then caught on that the 70, 82 were games and started over. Had a smile on my face the whole read. Lots of cool stuff in there, 66 for the Cat, Constellation (Stars), etc. Well done. Nice to have a change up.

Hey, it was like 3 AM and I figured I'd give something new a try -- what the hell. Glad some of you enjoyed it, GFG!

I thought it was pretty good, Scorpion. Could use some humour though.

Just ####ing win!

Some humour? ok

Why didn't Connor McDavid score a goal?

Spoiler!

I'm off to PV this morning for a week. If the Flames go on a tear during my absence, I'll gladly stay away until the 1st round of the playoffs!! Keep me posted.

Hey, if you're going to try your hand at creative writing, you better be ready for some critical analysis.

The metaphor was good, but the overall story was kind of boring. And since there was no actual purpose (for obvious reasons), it could have used a little more entertainment value.

Having said that, now that I have seen your attempt at humour, you should stick to metaphors!

Relax, this is all in fun

I think Scorpion should be put in charge of a Guardian Project revival.

For the love of humanity, just get the 2 points. I don't care how.
