yeah, I am ready for hockey. I am loving tired. I spend most days and nights going between worrying about my job disappearing, whether or not I'm being a lovely dad because I'm stuck in a room at home, worrying about America burning down and Canada ignoring first nations people, I can't go visit my family in BC this year because they won't lift the travel ban to Haida Gwaii (rightfully so) and its getting loving hot in Ottawa and I'm out of popsicles and I already made my weekly shopping trip so gently caress you in your butt if you want to see this blow up so you can laugh about it and say I told you so.

You're a good dad and a good poster go hug your kids. I want hockey back because I want all the dumb, young dudes who don't have families to just livestream their Olympic Village poo poo 24/7. Especially since actual 24/7 got shitcanned because Mike Babcock is the worst, and all the knockoff budget versions individual teams made (Oil Change, 24CH, etc they all loving have them now apparently) kind of suck rear end. Like I don't know who who the Bruce Boudreau of this bizarro world version of "relatable behind-the-scenes sports show" will be, but there's gonna be one, and I'm ready for it.

Again, the Bundesliga is back and has had a handful of positive tests, the EPL is back in full contact training and has had around ten positive tests out of 1500. All were asymptomatic and self isolated. I would expect hockey to be back and the weird playoffs to go broadly fine

Eric the Mauve posted:If I was an NHL goalie I'd wear, like, number 8 just to piss people like you off Ban this sick filth. Edit: I was obsessive about this poo poo as a young goalie, and it still runs deep for me... A comprehensive list of acceptable numbers for goalies... 0 or 00, John Davidson and Marty Biron. The association with zeroes is obvious. 1, the Ur-Goalie Number 2, Czech, Slovak and other eastern Euro goalies wear this, dunno why, but they've been doing it for ages. Only they can do it, and only in international tournaments. 20, Tretiak, enough said. 27, Hextall 29-39, this should be obivious. I might even extend this to 28, and through 43 by proximity. Subsequent multiples of 10. 50, Crawford. 60, Theodore. 70, Holtby. 80, Weeks. 90, Ayers (  ).I will also accept numbers that are inversions of numbers they've previously worn if they are otherwise taken. ie, 53 for Khabibulin in Chicago, because it is retired for Esposito. 92 for Vokoun in Pittsburgh because Fleury wore 29. I will further indulge numbers with notable stories, such as Carter Hart not wanting to change his issued number because it would disappoint some kids who bought his jersey while he was still in camp. deoju fucked around with this message at 20:33 on Jun 6, 2020 |

Marty Biron briefly wore 00 as a rookie. He was banned from doing so after it was discovered that the league's crappy stat tracking software couldn't handle it and it caused the program to crash.

Hey you remember that 42 year old Zamboni driver for the Toronto Maple Leafs who played goalie against the Toronto Maple Leafs and beat the Toronto Maple Leafs? He wore number 90 that night he beat the Toronto Maple Leafs.

He eventually wound up wearing 39 because it had a 9 in it.

There should be a rule that if your surname is Griswold, then you have to play with the 00.

deoju posted:Ban this sick filth. Random  :I've waffled on multiples of 10 but they're common enough that I'm fine with it. Elvis wears 90, but Ayers is a more fun example. Markstrom wearing 25 is a sin. One of the EA NHL games I played assigned Curtis Sanford #2 in the minors which made no sense until today. Bob wanted 1 in Philly but it was retired and picked 72 in Columbus because he thought it was a cool number (and presumably because Steve Mason was 1).

Devin Shore, who I constantly forget is on my own team, changed to 74 because his friends always reminded him that it rhymes with his name and constantly gave him poo poo about him not wearing it.
