If it's safe for the border to be open, then open it. But I don't like the idea of special arrangements just so we can say they're playing in our empty arena.

I think you can fly over the border but not drive.

I cannot confirm nor deny this story.

And you're just as bad if not worse. Two sides of the same coin.

As long as one of the hub cities is in the East, I don't overly care where it is.

Better for the players and TV if it's in the East.

One in the East = ?? and one in the West = Vegas.

Because of the wall?

Montreal and New York have been hit harder than Toronto. Maybe that's why Toronto keeps getting mentioned? If the NHL wants games played in bigger markets in the East, have to think it will be one of those 3 cities.

Yeah. It's a 20,000 foot wall. Only way over is by plane..

I don't think they need to be geographically in the East. It's a one time trip so as long as the game times match with the viewers in the East, it should be fine.

Ice quality and a number of rinks that can house good TV production value is paramount. Most major cities can provide hotels big enough to room the majority of players considering most of them are probably empty right now anyway.

It really doesn't matter because the games will be empty anyway. Whether it's an empty arena in Toronto or in Edmonton or anywhere else doesn't really matter much.

After safety; ice quality, TV quality and hotels for players is paramount. Everything else is secondary.

There's a whole ball of wax that goes into the decision.

Personal, I though both cities would be in the US at one time but now I'm not so sure.
It will depend on the Canadian quarantine regulation

PS, I agree with you on Kapanen. He's one of few with an edge to his game and he has all the tools. I think he is maturing a bit slow but when/if it clicks, he could be even better.

Johnsson or Kerfoot are exactly who they are, either can go before Kap. If we could get a RHD without trading any of them, I'm cool with that too. I like Johnsson's game, Kerfoot is fine for what he is but I wouldn't miss either of them if we had a more balanced D.

Canadian politicians are scared poopless so if they're going to wait for them, they'll be waiting until 2021.

Arthur: I am your king!
Woman: Well I didn't vote for you!
Arthur: You don't vote for kings.
Woman: Well how'd you become king then?

- Canada Cup[Angelic music plays...]
Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering silmite
held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine
providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your
king!
Dennis interrupting: Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin'
swords is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power
derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic
ceremony!

Fox News published digitally altered and misleading photos on stories about Seattle’s Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) in what photojournalism experts called a clear violation of ethical standards for news organizations.

As part of a package of stories Friday about the zone, where demonstrators have taken over several city blocks on Capitol Hill after Seattle police abandoned the East Precinct, Fox’s website for much of the day featured a photo of a man standing with a military-style rifle in front of what appeared to be a smashed retail storefront.

The image was actually a mashup of photos from different days, taken by different photographers — it was done by splicing a Getty Images photo of an armed man, who had been at the protest zone June 10, with other images from May 30 of smashed windows in downtown Seattle. Another altered image combined the gunman photo with yet another image, making it appear as though he was standing in front of a sign declaring “You are now entering Free Cap Hill.”

anqueefastan also has.....segregated gardens..? so progressive! What the (frank) is a "plant ally"?







Ya, your utopia looks great! the bags of Sprite are a nice touch








The irony is the first thing they did was set up borders - manned with armed guards

I agree with you on Kap, however I think you, Max and Roger should get a room where you could all masturbate furiously about Doughty, Jagr and Hintz. Post the pics for the next contest!

Fixed in a very juvenile but satisfying way

Because the ice will probably be better and more rinks equipped to handle NHL level hockey and TV broadcasts.
- JohnFergusonJr

without fans in the arena the ice will likely be better than usual despite the summer dates.

Even when the Leafs sucked, you find a way to do mental gymnastics to say they didn't suck that bad. That's amazing.
- JohnFergusonJr

they sucked but by 1 single point and you are saying kesel makes 0 difference with 24 1 goal losses.

Final four starts today, at least one character picture for each. Here is the first matchup A or B
