mastershakeman posted:Did you guys not live through the last two Chicago winters or are you trolling Yeah I'm confused. The last two winters across the North East are among the harshest winters ever. February 2015 was the coldest month in the history of Toronto, I assumed it was equally nasty across the region.

When I got there I realized I couldn't see anything through the snow and that I was a total idiot Edit: yeah Feb 2015 was all time coldest in Chicago, plus had a 20" snow day on Superbowl day. Also some subzero January days. 2014 had that January with three straight days that didn't hit 0. I know that's nothing compared to Canada but still

You can complain about "bad winters" when it drops below 20F in October and stays that way until March.

The average high temperature for December through March of 2013-2014 was 27º F (-3º C), which was the 3rd coldest Winter on record. The pipes in our old building froze and burst twice, flooding our apartment both times. The past two Winters here have been terrible.

Warm water freezes faster than cold, so if you think about it the South is more hockey than anywhere else.

MRLOLAST posted:Does Mattias Öhlund get a ring or his name on the cup? It takes 41 regular season games or one Stanley Cup finals game to get your name on the cup. Teams can petition in some cases for players who just miss the cut, but considering Ohlund hasn't played an NHL game in 3 years I don't think that will be happening.

I guess he still watches a lot of home games from the press box, so maybe he has a good relationship with the org still and can get a pity ring. go matti

I feel like the hockey is going to be awesome this final since both teams play an exciting style but I'm not that excited about the storylines. Chicago winning again would be whatever and Tampa is mostly full of young guys plus it's not their first franchise Cup either if they win.

Just give me 7 double OT games and I'm happy with whoever wins it. With Kane and Kuch/Stamkos scoring a bunch of sweet goals.

Rahm responded to Tampa's ticket policy:Rahm Emanuel posted:Chicago Blackhawks supporters are known to be among the best in the NHL, and certainly we wish the Tampa Bay Lightning management would welcome Chicago fans to their city and not be afraid to let them into their arena for the Stanley Cup finals. As Mayor of Chicago, I welcome Tampa fans –and hockey fans from around the country – to fly to Chicago and enjoy our world class hotels, restaurants, cultural attractions, and then go watch Stanley Cup hockey in Chicago. It doesn’t get better than that.
