Dylan Larkin?

What recent Hart winner most resembles Jack's situation?

Impressive. I'm not sure I've heard of a built-in dresser.

One thing to consider is how empty the experience would be. No home games. No parties in the plaza. No parade. If an NHL postseason comes to pass, it will be for one reason only: the league needs the money that badly. Sad all the way around.

Is this going to be a patented Neo drive-by or do you wanna put some meat on the bone? Where else are you going to get that kind of invite on a Friday night? I see heavily armed, uniformed gentlemen citizens shouting directly into the faces of police officers in Michigan. And those surgical masks aren't really designed to protect the wearer. You could charge the fine young man with attempted murder, but in Michigan they were given a very long leash. Is this about stay at home orders, which weren't really that at all? Religious gatherings? The two Porterhouse limit?

Coronaviruses have been around a long time.

And in the meantime if someone has any Covid symptoms, even if it seems unlikely, how are they handled?

How long does it take for Covid testing to come back? Is it still many days?

Has the Hart always involved the mental gymnastics of trying to figure out of all the individual team MVPs who is the most MVP-y? Or do the writers tend to pick the best player in the league? See the Lindsay Award.

So it turns out there are no FDR voice actors on fiverr. Sorry... I hear the last line in the voice of FDR. I might be approaching end stage coronavirus madness. ESCM.

And that would just be all the coronaries in Buffalo.

I think you might be right. I've noticed declining deaths in NY. Other parts of the country must be picking up the slack. Or #libtardcoroners. I mean, who knows what's REALLY going on?

Is fiverr still around? Oh man have I got the gig of a lifetime. And yeah I'm that bored.

The third paragraph is telling. You've admitted to not being educated about what's going on. And Fauci didn't say that. He said he couldn't guarantee it would be safe by then.

Global pandemics and depressions that come right to my doorstep tend to get my attention.

A lot of people don't seem to want to notice that daily death totals that were supposed to go down a few weeks after the curve got flattened haven't really done so. This week has seen some of the highest daily death counts of the pandemic. That might be because although the spike in cases was stopped and the curve did get flattened, it's been more a high plateau after that. There have bee some noticeable declines in total new cases, but then it shoots back up again. Sort of a roller coaster ride.

A lot of those tests are trash. And that's not even a test for active infection.

I think what's bothering me is the idea that a workforce can consider itself so essential and so privileged that they should be able to move their workplace to a safer area and be assured of testing that even over the summer will not be available to everyone. One of the bidding requirements is that restaurants be available to offer "bubble" service. The NHL entourage and no one else, I assume. This pandemic ripped a bandaid off our society. The NHL seems to be saying... "Yeah we're gross. So what? How are you going to stop us, diseased peasant?"

Uh yeah.

I can't believe you aren't assuming the Sabres are going to hoist the Cup. In September. In Cheyenne.

Neither. Imma lie on my back and get under the seat.

Imma go lick a park bench.

I couldn't. Win a Cup in the middle of a pandemic by making the playoffs when you wouldn't have otherwise, then winning short series on neutral ice with no fans? The prophesy would come true: the Buffalo Sabres would win a Stanley Cup, and I'd still find something to bitch about.

Bob Costas is on CNN now saying that widespread and rapid testing will be the key to sports being able to return. He talks about the public relations disaster (his words) the leagues will suffer if professional athletes are getting tested before everyone in society who needs a test is able to get one. Dr. Birx has said what we need is a testing breakthrough, a rapid and reliable antigen test. Think people lining up to go to work and all being tested and getting results in a matter of minutes.

Thanks.
