I was talking about David Thomson.

https://www.yardbarker.com/nhl/articles/dallas_stars_owner_makes_touching_gesture_to_mark_scheifele_after_his_fathers_passing/s1_17448_42212524 It has been revealed that Tom Gaglardi has flown Scheifele home to Kitchener in Ontario on his private plane after Game 6, allowing Scheifele to get home and be with his family following the tragic weekend that he's been through. Classy move by Dallas owner, wondering why Canada's richest man couldn't have also offered this to Scheifele, given he's an owner of the team.

Made things slightly less painful...

Jake's making the club from the buffet table it appears....

Not sure what religion has to do with it, but yes, he attends the same church as one of my buddies in Winnipeg.

Reminds me of Joannie Rochette at the 2010 Olympics. If he is going to play, have to control the emotions. Man that is tough.

Leafs at least trying to win tonight....so that's a plus...

He's leaving to do figure skating with Rod Black...

Dallas should have had the extra two on that one, no question.

Benn's sucker was bush league. That guy is such a putz.

Welcome to British Columbia every August!

Terrible goal for Ott to give up. Let's build on this!

Jeffcoat was injured too often and it limited his effectiveness. Unfortunate because when he was healthy our D-Line was formidable.

Dwayne Slay annual fan appreciation award for best name and least amount of skill....lol...

Speaking of recycled jokes - how does Manase Foketi look so far? Has Friesen commented on him yet?

why do I suddenly want to go motor boating?

I get accused of recycling jokes (Rod Black and Sam Giguere/Keith Urban and Glen Suitor for instance) all the time so didn't want to go back to the Gowan well again so soon. It will be fun though - Gowan jokes always are funny.

Didn't we already do this schtick a few months ago?

How I feel watching the Jets play up to their potential (finally!) in the playoffs:

yeah I will be cheering for Edmonton in that one, just can't bring myself to cheer for the center of the universe. No offense Bluto....lol...

So we cheer for Canadian teams in the playoffs we normally hate like Edmonton and Toronto, like Canadians normally do, but now we do it in conjunction with a slogan created to frighten Boomers? Where do I sign? I will try to cheer for Toronto at some point. It's tough though. They're usually out by this point so it's a bit confusing. Keep looking for Doug Gilmour....lol...

Wow - all of these old Winnipeg coaches sending love to the Jets - Bones on the post game yesterday claiming that he's all Jets fan even despite coaching elsewhere, and last year after winning the Cup PaMa saying that his biggest wish is for the Jets to win a Stanley Cup. Wonder if we face the Panthers in the finals if he'll still feel that way? LOL
