Thanks Carol!

Congratulations to Edm/Tor, good luck.

Fauci said he wouldn’t be surprised to see the US reach 100k new cases per day, I’d give them a week to 10 days to get there. Looks like Canada could drop out of the top 20 in that same time

CDC is counting antibody Positive tests as new cases ... the more Antibody testing done the more positive Test results ...which explains why positive tests are skyrocketing...yet daily death tolls are dropping

Edmonton and Toronto will be fine

Not at all I am use to your boss coming in here daily and female doging about the cap and everything else in the world.



What I do want to know is when you both die who gets to keep the brain?

I will say I am very cautious but realize it is up to me to protect myself and my family. I do know that the numbers are going up for testing positive and deaths are down. That is a good sign. I also realize that at anytime the death rate could go up. For now I am cautiously optimistic but understand an about face could happen at any time and we are back to square one.

I don't think anyone has the answers so for now it is like stepping into a hot bath , test it with your foot and if it is okay proceed .

So people who have had the disease but have recovered already? How many people do you think are simply getting tested to see if they have been sick? I’d say the three hot spots are driving most of the action, but as Nighty pointed out, people are taking getting sick to the next level $$$

I agree, a bunch of players playing with no contact with fans or others shouldn’t be a problem. I have my doubts players (all of them) will stay in the bubble. What if Virtanen sneaks out, gets laid, gets infected, infects Petey and Millsey? Canucks chances of beating Minny just went down.

Maybe Jake wants to get traded

Maybe he thinks there isn't any cap space, I will check with Rubey to see were we stand cap wise.

I know game to game I will cheer for the team but it is not a bad consolation prize losing the play in round.

I’ll save you the trouble, we’re fucked.

I like Jake, just poking fun because of his “troubles” there’s plenty of guys around the league who are more likely to try and get them some of that hot Edmonton ass.

I think there are lots getting tested as testing becomes more and more available.

I think that the players should be way more cautious as they have a lot more to lose if they screw this up.

Not only will she take care of every need but will also share her Ben Gay if your muscles are sore.

While more people are getting tested, more people are testing positive for it percentage wise in the last few weeks. That's the big marker. If there was more people getting it but the positivity rate was staying the same or even trending down, then it wouldn't be as big of a deal.

Well yes if 10 people go get tested for antibodies and test positive but are fine now then they would be raising the percentages now when they were actually positive earlier

The percentages from May and June should be higher in reality ...think of it as flattening the curve in reverse

I think people make too much of it. If they lose you are going to get a good draft pick. Next year the scouting might be a whole lot harder. If you win then good for us , if we lose look forward to the draft.
