Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

They were?

I think you may have been pissed drunk

Not sure why everyone has to blame McDavid for the clown show in Edmonton. He’s still the lesgue’s best player. He didn’t make the bad trades and stupid signings.

One thing I find alarming about McDavid though is how much he looks to have aged. He looks like he’s 30 years old for fuck sakes.
ya gotta wonder how long he'll put up with the shit show there

Dylan Strome with 31 points in 33 games. Not doing too badly for the Hawks since he escaped Glendale

Talbot traded to Flyers. I wonder if we will be getting McKenna soon.

Its straight up for goalie Anthony Stolarz. Huge cap savings which oilers needed.

Utica could use him right now. If Flyers waive him we can pick him up and send him directly to Utica . The guy we have now would need to clear waivers. So ya, I'd pick up McKenna just to be sure we have a goalie in Utica.

So did the Sedins. He’s 21 and scoring at basically a ppg pace.
