Cross-country skiers.

They always have the best VO2 max in testing.

I was always impressed by the biathlon, watching them lower their pulse and get under control to shoot.

Me too. Crazy science behind it.

Do you push for faster time, or slow down to lower your heart rate before shooting?

It's like chess. On skis. With guns.

Take a moment and enjoy.
Freddie is in great form
Marner is huge right now, completely earning his contract
Matthews is a beast from time to time.
Simmonds has goals in back to back games
Holl is playing pretty darn good
Overall, team defense has been pretty darn good for the past 5 games.

oh ya.

....and the Leafs are 1st overall in the NHL.

Meh, what can you do.

Let's not get too excited about Freddie just yet:

2.84 GAA and .896 S%. His GSAA is also a -1.64 which is pretty stinky. Other fancy stats like XGA are pretty poopty too.

Small sample set but I'm not willing to admit he's improved on last season's form just yet. At the very least, he hasn't been "great".

He was terrible against Montreal and Ottawa. He was good against Winnipeg, Edmonton and Calgary, so he's trending in the right direction in his last 4 games - including making a real nice save against Lindholm last game. One save is just one save, but how he tracked it, how he came across post-to-post and stayed high in the net to make the glove save was noticeable and encouraging. Often, when he's not on his game, Freddie comes across post-to-post too low and exposes too much of the upper net.

But as with any goalie - it's a "what have you done for me lately" position. If he craps the bed tonight, we'll all be back and female doging about him again.

I've been hard on Andersen, but I think he's been good lately. I do believe that not having any exhibition games, it was hard to adjust

Ontario says its officials have been misinterpreting total vaccinations and will update to reflect number of people fully vaccinated- it’s about half what the current number says (96,000), so only about 48,000 people.


this is going well

I might get vaccinated by 2023

I'm just hoping old blowhards like CC and Wedginald can get vaccinated before it's too late to serve unagi in the platinum seats.

So John Gibson is amazing and Brian Burke traded that pick to "Move up" for Tyler Biggs.
And we are supposed to value Burke's "Opinion" on SN.

Yeah, I noticed that. Really odd. That shouldn't be like that in a 56 game schedule

I agree that the players are very athletic and very talented but the sport itself is kinda 'meh'.

Do now these market trading apps are restricting transactions in order to (frank) the Reddit boys and protect the hedge funds. People are going nuts. Liberate Wall Street!
