It was great to hear John Walton call that Canes/Lightening game, the Caps radio guy and best in the business.

What a performance by Barzal tonight. Especially after getting his Barzalsac speared by Krejci. Apparently Marchand is rubbing off on some of his teammates.
Dude, Don Cherry would pay you at least 10k CAD for "Barzalsac." Minimum.
For the record, it took me three tries to spell "Barzalsac" correctly. I blame the Glenlivet.
Surprise, surprise.
Good news for either the Jets or Canadiens

Yes, but it is of no help to either the Canucks, Flames, Oilers, Leafs, Senators, Nordiques, or Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds.
Thank God. That would have been such BS otherwise. Even still their home game crowds will be smaller.
Clippers won Game 7! Now we just need the Golden Knights to win to cap off a good day. But regardless, this is a good day.
Kawhi needs to be cautious now. Mark Sheifele could come out of nowhere and floor him with a crushing hit.
Haha in the NBA I think that hit would be a 3,000 game suspension. I think it’s a penalty to get within 2 feet of another player these days. The flops are almost as bad as they are in soccer.Kawhi needs to be cautious now. Mark Sheifele could come out of nowhere and floor him with a crushing hit.
I love that in the NHL if the ref is like “He didn’t hit you that hard, bud.” You get 2 minutes and a fine.
Yep, 3,000 sounds about right, but I'd need to confer with a higher source. Where's Ron Artest when you need him? 
Who is Ron Artest? I only know a guy named “Metta World Peace.”Yep, 3,000 sounds about right, but I'd need to confer with a higher source. Where's Ron Artest when you need him?

Interesting that NBA doesn’t release their viewership numbers. They simply state headline grabbing “UP 60%!”.........(over last season, which was lowest in history?).
Saw they are also looking for a significant increase in TV revenue for next contract. Last I saw asking $75 BILLION, a 312% increase over the current $24 Billion deal? Decreasing viewership, ergo lower ad revenues, ergo..... Give us more money????? That’s some special type of thought process there.
Hey, Hollywood should take a page out of this book. Increase ticket prices to $35, and point to “Attendance up 200%........... versus last year’s dismal Covid numbers and a downward trend in theater attendance”?????

The Hockey Guy has had similar discussions about the inconsistency of crosschecking penalties, and I was just recently thinking about how inconsistent the penalty calls are in hockey.
I mean, watching my Ducks 2007 Stanley Cup DVD would make you think it took place in 2035. There were so many whistles even though it was a fair bit rougher back then.

Wow. Poor Jets. It is my understanding that their fans have an obsession with waving white things:
Does this count?

Fun start to Avs/Knights. Some motivated humans out there. It’s like watching a Ferrari after the Ford Fiesta of a MTL game.
Vegas has been the better team for three games now. Return of the Reaves with an assist. Despite the shenanigans, I might have to pull this out of the closet.
They most certainly were tonight there’s no doubt about that! Impressive game, particularly for Marchessault with the hatty!
