I appreciate the offer.

But in light of what Georgia is doing, I don't think the border will be open for a long, long, long time.

Of course - Well, whenever it does and things resume to normal, just let me know.

Edit: Speaking of Georgia, have you seen that gyms are among the first phase of businesses to reopen?

I know you're not allowed to criticize a trade if you win the cup, but after years of trying to acquire him, he just didn't deliver what we expected. Our powerplay was so damn bad. I've been rewatching their '11 SC run (airs every night on NESN) and I just can't believe they kept doing the same thing over and over. That team won a 7 game series against Montreal without scoring one powerplay goal.

He lead your team in assists, while being 5th in ice time.

Chara and Seidenberg were each averaging more than 27 minutes a night throughout the playoffs (a franking astonishing number).

Kaberle was 16 minutes.

You got him to make passes. He lived up to his end of the bargain.

And bowling alley's. Two of the more unsanitary places people could go to.

Tattoo parlours. How in the frank are tattoo parlours one of the first things you open?

Fair enough. I think I just expected him to have more of an impact on the PP and it just never materialized.

Not sure what everybody expected other than a solid offensive defenseman who can drive the play forward and will get punked on defense if he isn't helped. He did his job.

Some offensive defensemen aren't good on the PP weirdly enough

Why are Americans so offended by this hand gesture?

I remember watching the Aerosmith video "Cryin" and they actually blurred out Alicia Silverstone's middle finger.

Like, you can show people being killed and their bodies being cut up on prime time TV, but not a finger?

WTF?

We have an office in the basement of my house and we have an employee, who my dog loves. She still comes in every day, gets the mail, and goes down to get some work done. My dog knows when she comes and gets excited every time and we just open the door and she runs on down. Now we can't do that so she sniffs under the doors like crazy and cries for about 5 minutes

We're consistently inconsistent with what does and does not offend us.

If they did continue the season or even if heavy restrictions are on until August just before next season MDZ had a great point.

Players living in Sweden are able to skate right now and they are going to be months ahead of every other player.

So what I am getting at is Willie is going to win the Conn Smyte

I think the point is that you start opening business that are more essential than others and that really goes against that.

Yeah I agree.

I’d like to see what else is on the list as well. But I’m just saying I’m not surprised, it’s a pretty low risk environment and their goal here is to re-open the economy as much as possible.

Most plans I've seen all have phases, so it just seems a little interesting that those are in phase 1 is all, but I see your point.

This is the list after a quick search:
Gyms and fitness centers
bowling alleys
body art studios
barbers, cosmetologists, and hair designers
nail care artists
estheticians and their respective schools
massage therapists
