I’m literally getting on a plane to Dallas for the game as I see Kadri to Avs

Holy crap

Well I guess we now know that the Lightning will make and lose the Cup Final - welcome back Cory Perry
I was able to get into the travel packages with some good options. Seats themselves were still $650 ish.
Ultimately decided to not do anything with it and take my chances later
I'll have more options with dates and hotels, if I pay more it is what it is.
I was at a conference for my field which is great time for job interviews. I had 3 interviews lined up for that day and all of them involved a meal. Little did I know, they all took me to Ruth's Chris in the conference center hotel.

I was at meal 3 at Ruth Chris in one day and all I could fit was an appetizer and half a glass of wine. Must have looked like a huge bitch to these people. Never ever thought I'd complain about that. :lol:

Anaheim rebounding nicely tonight against the Islanders


I'd love for Anaheim to win that shitty division
They're the only team in that division that has technically has more wins than losses. The Pacific being so bad is the only reason Seattle and LA are still hanging around in the playoff race.
Vegas have been OT merchants and Edmonton can't put strings of wins together.

I don’t know
Personally think Kadri is too expensive with too much time left on contract for his age to make that move.
Wouldn’t be surprised to see Colton out.

Very curious to see what happens.

Any big predictions on blockbuster moves?
I gave up after yesterday
If I want to see this show, I will have to do so alone without my main group of concert friends (they can't afford this even without scalped prices) and at a very high cost. I'll still think about it.

Very disappointing. I was done seeing Metallica with the exception of a Sphere show.
178965 suck it

:lol:

Guess this is karma for laughing at Taylor Swift people during that tour

I'm also trying the Vibee travel packages but my wait went from "over 1 hour" to "over 3 hours" since I opened the site :lol:

I'm liking the Kulak addition for Colorado so far

I'll be at the Avs-Stars game on Friday - this weekend is huge for the central division.

If the Avs lose both games to Dallas and Min, the race tightens considerably given how well all teams are playing right now.
Started the audiobook yesterday so need to finish and then watch while it's all fresh in my mind. So far, so good.
I was number 254000 in the queue :lol:

And they're already sold out

Actually med students like him are becoming less common as admissions committees move away from GPAs and scores. They want diversity and "a good life story" now.

Now you're getting more of "interesting people" that can't actually think critically or aren't cut out for practicing medicine. Not sure which one is worse.

Trocheck is the probably the best center out there available, then O'Reilly and Kadri
If only the Avs could get Trocheck for 3C, oh boy. But not happening.

I just don't want Minnesota or Dallas to get a big piece. Unfortunately, they both have the cap room to do so.
The last one of the trilogy was borderline unwatchable and took lots of shine off the first two. I personally preferred the second one.
Out of the nice ones I've stayed at would rank in this order:

Four Seasons
Chloe - classy and perfect uptown situation, great for a staycation
Eliza Jane - classy and understated
Virgin - cool offbeat vibes
Hyatt Regency - not bad overall, good location next to dome, but it's a Hyatt regency if you've stayed at one you've stayed at them all
Bruins Flyers is such a terrible nationally televised matchup
But NHL always does this with the crappy east coast teams

Had a package out for delivery - nothing that day
Then status changed to delivery attempted but was restricted - which is BS because everything was fine
Go to the physical location and apparently the package was on a truck in the warehouse but they couldn't get it or do anything until the truck was opened and everything was put on the delivery trucks

So then why the hell mark that it's out for delivery? Also I go there to the location where it physically located, but yet I can't get the package. Idiots.
But it was awful for the first nearly 4 minutes
3 on 3 OT giveth and taketh away
Grew up watching Berman do NFL highlights, home run derby, and the occasional Sportscenter

Never liked him. Thought his act was washed and annoying at best. He was always the show, never the highlights or the game he was covering. The off camera stuff makes him seem like an a-hole IRL too. All the love for him is pure nostalgia and not based on fact.

Good riddance.
