healthy diet so they say. Kids here waste more than they eat.

Because some of us look at a piece of cake and gain 10 lbs.

They paint ice?? I just figured it was a big white board underneath with all of the logos/lines and such painted on it.

Can't tell if serious lol

On rinks that are in a permanent fixture like the ice at the arena there is gray concrete (or whatever its called) floor under the ice.

Under that is about a mile or so of copper piping that the cooling chemicals go through. I think the rink at the arena is an ammonia based system, there are a few different types.

Once the boards are in place they turn the system on to chill the concrete floor so the water when initially sprayed on starts freezing almost instantly for the base layer.

They build the ice up to about 3/4th of an inch to an inch and then paint it white. Then another thin layer of ice then they paint the lines, face off circles, creases and logos. Some of the logos are a vinyl decal. Then another thin layer of ice and boom you have a hockey rink.

Avs Stink,
True if Destroyed, True if Not Destroyed.

Someone (frank)ed over my team

but one thing you guys might notice now is that Zads plays the Right side, the last 30 games or so, and for whatever reason its that switch to his off side that he has started to become more of the Destroyer and Eater of Worlds

Completely serious. I just figured it was all that base stuff and before the first layer of ice you mention they have sectioned off white pieces that go down as the "blank" ice and that is what they'd paint on for everything, then lay ice over top that (some sort of layer to protect all of that would be needed too obviously).

Never in a million years would I have figured they paint actual ice.

Best ten bucks I ever spent.

I was sort of with you, growing up all the natural ice rinks and minor hockey rinks were painted lines etc but you would assume at the pro level it was a more efficient process than that.

Its not just normal paint either, its a very special paint, its a powder that you have to mix, if you dont get the consistency right it chips away easily, stains your hands like crazy when making it. It stinks

Was just laughing at your first post to Coga, then scroll to see you reply to mine. :D

I don't remember what I paid for it, but I had that way before Minecraft. Minecraft is the best $26 I've ever spent...soooooooo many hours put into that game!! I haven't played Terraria in a very long time (Steam says 6/1/2011)

I just always imagined large glossy whiteboard sort of flooring that they paint on and put ice over.

have you ever watch an nhl team take the ice out? Its pretty awesome, just smash the crap out of it with bobcats down to the concrete floor.



just bring out the tractors and mess stuff up

Pretty sure I'd have a bit more insight as to how it's made had I seen that and see the painting all get smashed up.

Sounds pretty awesome though.

Oh, you have to go back and start and expert large world. The game is so different from 2011. Hardmode and expert mode didn't exist, along with thousands of items. Hardmode more than doubled the bosses, expert mode changes the difficult and the loot drops. And then there is the mighty moonlord at the end.

Foligno is the#4 scorer on the team even strength. He is not the problem.

Oh, you (frank)ing bumhole, lol

This guy wins the thread today, people. Lol.

Btw got the answer on a different message board..

Robin's back neck tattoo is a band called " in flames" best friends with them

You may be the ONLY one who didn't know that.

They are a poopty metal band from Sveedin

From Ek's post:

On Evander Kane...

Kane has been scouted by many teams this year and there is an obvious reluctance...A few sources of mine had tied him to Montreal, but one main source told me Therrien would never allow it...However, there may be another look now that Julien is at the helm...

Would we be able to pry out Galchenyuk for Kane & Gio?

Would that even be worth it?
- thatsapickle

you're out of your mind if you think MTL will trade Galchenyuk, plus, he's been injured a ton this season.

I'll take one Pacioretty though. Another guy I doubt they'd trade. They love their American captains.

That's how it's done everywhere.

Turn the compressors off at 10 pm the night before and at 6 am the next morning start breaking ice.

The worst part as a ref is right after the ice is freshly painted you end up with a white residue on your black pants...

After about a week the ice stops bleeding white LOL

we have all the technology in the world, but still its a simple process of making ice, painting lines, and smashing it to pieces haha

If you don't have a Honeybaked Ham store around where you live you should probably move where one exists... Their lunches are cheap and full of meaty goodness (settle down Gerbe).

what's the excuse of the day?
