You would never survive on your own.

The world would be a scary place for you

Not really, like I told my brother when he got divorced, just hire a hooker and a maid, you'll be happier. Of course, he didn't listen and went and got married again.

In all fairness though, his 2nd wife is a doll and his kids are awesome!

Ryan Howard is a very good player, who has an mvp season on his resume.

And just like that, you're sucked back in.

All good, I've already returned to my usually scheduled ignoring of him.

With an expanded role and better linemates, I feel like PEB's got 15+ goals in him, just based on what we've seen.

I also think this being his first year playing in North American style hockey after playing European style pretty much his whole life has had an effect. I think with a year of NA hockey now under his belt he should be even better next year. He's not young but he doesn't have the wear and tear of a normal 29/30 year old as the European game is significantly less physical. I'm a huge fan of PEB as he seems to play with a TON of heart.

I believe they are paying him around $125,000 per strikeout. I'd need to get a job like that!

Yeah, there's a few people I've tried logic, reason, and probabilities with, but have learned to ignore. Just easier than getting worked up and into a pissing match.

I'm not sure if he has the hands to ever be more than a 10-12 goal scorer. But when you add that to his speed, positional play, ability to kill penalties and his surprising toughness (heck he's fought more than the entire French army did during WWII), he is a keeper!

Love Bellemare and Raffl. After that game against Pittsburgh where they both dropped the gloves, I fell a bit more.

After G and V, they are starting to be next on my list.

I agree with the short term lease & specific services advice

Its what people learn after the cliched 'Find someone you hate and buy them a house" line for men going through a divorce

When all they ask is rhetorical questions, what's the point in answering?

Frank Reynolds covered this in "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia", when he came up with the term "Bangmaid".

Yea I'm not sure what his goal total potential truly is but I really think he'll be even better next year. He does have some skill and he actually has a pretty wicked wrister that he didn't really get to use this year that much as he was really the only person on his line ever driving play

I find it amazing that you still respond to my posts when I don't give the slightest damn what you think of what I've posted.

not sure how you can say that when you're literally replying to him ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That Marcus Hayes piece is dumb and we're all worse having to be subjected to Marcus Hayes' sports writing. He's (frank)ing beyond horrible, no matter what sport he writes about.

I really think Raffl and especially PEB are undervalued by a lot of fans. (Not necessarily here but throughout)

Fact: No Warning is Canadian.

Fact: No Warning is playing a reunion show on Friday night.

Which literally? The one that literally means literally, or the one that literally means the exact opposite of literally?
