Somehow I am getting the Tampa Bay broadcast and broadcasters via one of the ESPN channels. What a lame trio of studio analysts TB has! I was really surprised at what a dull group they are. The TB color analyst is Brian Engblom. Any of you guys remember him?

50 for Caulfield.....assisted by Suzuki and Slafkovsky! What a line!

The key words are "at the moment". This is a something that will get negotiated obviously.

It's not what was agreed to, it's what Iran wants. The point of the ceasefire is to discuss it. There is no way that tolls in the Strait of Hormuz is going to be allowed. These are just negotiating points.

Don't look now, but there is a 3 way tie for 1st place in the Atlantic Division, and all 3 teams have 4 to play!!!! It's anyone's division to grab! https://www.espn.com/nhl/standings

Some years ago, as a joke because my actual French sucks so so badly, I tried to pass myself off as a bilingual person and made some French posts, translating some very literate English ones I had written with a translation app. These often prompted amused responses, and in some cases criticism...

It's a Jihadist Theocracy. This is a problem not just in Iran but throughout the Middle East, where you have no true separation of Mosque and State. There is never going to be any real progress until that changes. And that change really does need to come from within Iran, with rebellion and...

I dislike the taste of kale, but I avoid it for a separate reason: it's too coarse for me to digest. It's an inferior vegetable to spinach, broccoli and watercress. You can leave kale out of the salad.

ESPN Analyzes Tight Atlantic Division Race, Remaining Schedules for TB, Buffalo and Montreal: Who Will WIn? https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/48406843/nhl-playoffs-bracket-standings-2026-wild-card-bracket-games-matchups

It's now sounding more and more like the reason Patrick Roy was fired is that Darche wanted Peter DeBoer as his coach before anyone else could hire him, and Roy (who was never his guy to begin with) was simply blocking him from doing that. I think the "source" that is telling ESPN that Roy's...

I was referring to the 2 women in the article that CR posted, which preceded my post. They are being deported back to Iran.

Looks like these 2 will be deported back to Iran very soon. The hypocrisy is really amazing to me. There are a lot of people who do need to be deported quickly.

I saw a new release on Prime which I really enjoyed yesterday called "Crime 101", starring Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, and Halle Berry with Jennifer Jason Leigh and Nick Nolte in small supporting roles. It's a heist movie about a clever jewel thief played by Hemsworth who is being tracked...

On a related note to the above post is whether we should stick a fork in the Washington Capitals as far as NOT being Montreal's first round opponent? With 4 games left, they need to pass 4 teams in front of them for that last WC spot, all of whom have more points. Which is why they really...

Correct. The Flyers coach is the career holder of the record for Gordie Howe Hat Tricks with 18.

Today's Trivia Question: Who holds the NHL record of 18 career "Gordie Howe Hat Tricks" (i.e., goal, assist and fight)? Clue: It is not Gordie Howe.

Montreal would probably much rather play Philadelphia, which is actually now ahead of Boston and Ottawa with today's win, than either Boston and Ottawa. Boston and Ottawa both have healthy positive goal differentials, whereas Philadelphia has a negative goal differential. I also think Swayman...

Not only that, but with the Flyers winning today, the Islanders are now out of the playoffs and trailing the wild card by a point.
