So...2 more players on the covid protocol today...I think the only player healthy with an NHL contract remaining is Jean-Sebastien Dea.

I wonder if emergency call ups from the CHL is still a possibility...

I read somewhere that we could call up the players from WJC

Yeah I'm not a fan of Barstool for a bunch of reasons.

And yeah you clearly can't please everybody when you've solved a major problem and people still female dog. A friend of mine in high school told me you can't please everybody so stop trying and he was as spot on then as he would be now

I like some of their stuff, but most of their personalities are dreadful to listen to.

But holy (frank) is their customer service rude.

I'm shocked that the customer service who work for Portnoy would be rude. Shocked

Portnoy has some weird fetish for hiring mini portnoys (and 20-something instathots). We're for the common man! Just don't expect to get a shirt in 5 weeks!

Just found out they can call up CHL players that are under contract.

They could sign Logan Mailloux...

Quebec will reinstate curfew as Omicron cases soar, report says

Officials are believed to be considering a curfew starting New Year's Eve. The announcement is expected Thursday afternoon.

pretty sad indeed. not that it bothers me personnaly, but I would prefer they ask for the vaccination passport to get access to the hospital. time for the idiots to play.
10% of the population taking 50% of the beds? enough. we done our share.

I actually have a lot of respect for what he's done and accomplished, just not my thing.

5 weeks for a t shirt has to be a flaw in how they operate because that shouldn't be possible in 2021

I once got a response saying "you ordered this during a pandemic. your shirt isn't a priority."

So Barstool delayed your shirt because they were curing Covid? If so, that's a fair excuse

yup lol, same here. it might be less dangerous but it's far more contagious, so if you look at the numbers you'll notice the number of hospitalizations and deaths are on the rise. it sucks but holding sport events at all costs in this context is not the best of ideas, especially considering the WJC players weren't held in a tight bubble or anything.

They say that the problem was that half of the refs tested positive…

Again, it is the fault of the refs… Like for the Habs…

i think it's code for "our stupid intern incharge of sending shirts to usps (who was probably on drugs) forgot to do it."

I've been a poopty person to customer service on enough occasions in the past but I've found lately that, even if they're completely wrong, I tend to get what I want if I'm patient and friendly...but I get it. I've actually called Rogers back before and asked them to apologize to whoever I spoke with 15 minutes earlier, I was that poopty a person

The Stool. They kept saying it was the shipper. I contacted usps, thsy said they were never given a pick uo date.

Anyway. The shirt wasn't worth it and is at the bottom of some drawer only to be worn again when i need to do something to wear when my clothing will get dirty and/or damaged
