    The Official 2024 NHL Playoff Thread

    Except Bobrovski imploded for 4-6. I'm disappointed in how it ended, but couldn't be prouder of this team, being left for dead in November to forcing a game 7 in the Finals. Congrats to the Florida Panthers and their long-suffering fans 👏 I personally cannot wait until next season.

    Took a peek up there today before the rain - still in one piece and aging nicely 👌

    Chronicling An AliExpress Pipe For Science 2.0: The Re-Chronicling

    Well, it did not survive the lawn mower test. A sad end to a proud pipe. The missing pieces of the bowl I can only assume will be transformed into mulch and turn my garden into super plants.

    Roll Call for Musicians!

    Picked up an acoustic guitar a few years ago and fiddled with it for a while. I learnt to pluck Happy Birthday for my wife's birthday one year. I haven't played in a while though 👎

    Don't worry - almost anything can be repaired on a pipe.

    Fishing

    I don't get to go fishing as much as I'd like - if at all. I just love the stillness of the water.

    Oh they'll find themselves, find themselves either golfing or unemployed on Tuesday I think.

    I think Florida is mentally broken. They've been outscored something like 23-4 in the last 3 games, which were clinching games for them.

    Happy Fathers Day to All Dads (and Would-Be Dads)

    If you are a father, enjoy your day today with your family. If you are a father-figure, you are needed. Kids are looking up to you. And if you are trying to start a family, but have hit roadblocks after roadblocks - I know this day can be hard for you. Don't give up - they are worth the wait.

    Brethren, I Humbly Ask a Favor

    If Edmonton comes back to win the Stanley Cup after being down 3-0, their story of the 2023-24 season will be the stuff of legend for years to come

    The fat lady is officially in the building. It's not over until it's over, but I am slo proud of this Edmonton team. 2nd to last on American Thanksgiving, and all the way to the Stanley Cup Finals.

    I'm biased, so I won't throw my opinion in, but unless Draisaitl took off his head and lobbed it into the crowd - they aren't suspending him. The fact that there was a ref in the corner watching the whole thing and only gave him 2 minutes is telling as well.
