Good morning!
I spent zero time this weekend looking into Don and Cam’s comments regarding the future. I just needed a break. So, please enjoy Sister’s favorite player Derek Forbort talking to the media.

BTW, Darla is the best.
@nhlbruinsForbs and Darla💞
Also, here’s hiping that Great Britain wins today to avoid relegation from the IIHF.
Woo hoo! Reaping the benefits of gardening and foraging already! Chives, ramps, garlic leaves all in my sandwich today!
There’s a little place near the office that makes fresh pasta and meal kits to take home and make. I ordered the fettuccini, morels, ramps, and peas pasta kit to make this weekend!
And if someone could remind me on Friday to go and pick that up I’d really appreciate it.
I will do my best! Been searching for morels. They are the crown jewel of spring foraging. Grow about apple trees, i’m told.
My cohost discovered a little patch near his house! He was heading out of town this weekend and was very worried about other humans and animals finding it.
They will come back every year, same spot!
*sigh*
Ok
Wow, Czechia beat USA. Swayman got player of the game for the US. He won a watch! Had a great save on Pasta in the third.
The Czechs are a different team with Pasta on board
I’ll be honest, I didn’t realise how mush of a superstar Pasta is on the world stage.
I remember when players would receive a Bulova watch for their inter period interviews, sponsored by some jewelry store…. of course that was in the days of free tv…
Morning all.
FORBORT BEST!!!!!!!!! FORBORT NUMBER 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FORBORT 4-EVA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Forbort over Quaider, even!
Good Morning!
Woo hoo! It’s a top ten day! 72 and sunny. Good thing. One more day in the furnace that was this weekend and i would dry up and blow away.
Still lots of great hockey going on. Nikita Kucherov sure makes hockey look easy and Vasilievsky has been amazing. Canes and Rags is great hockey. I have tuned out noise, er, news from the Hub. Things will fall into place in their own good time.
I do love Forbort. He is the monster the thought they were getting… in his own quiet way.
So if I’m not mistaken, the Canes are now 6-0 at home and 0-4 on the road in the playoffs. How much of their fortunes depend on being able to eliminate the other team’s top line’s chances by icing the Staal line against them? Yeesh.
It’s a crazy stat. Taking it back further they’ve won eight straight home games.
Gong into the playoffs Carolina had won five of their last six on the road, including two against the Rangers …
Canes are living and dying on the last change. That ain’t gonna wash in Tampa
Morning all,
Nice, relaxing weekend with good weather. BBQ yesterday!
This time next week I’ll be in Spain. It’ll be our first “sun holiday”. Hopefully not as much sun as this weekend, though – crazy temperatures in Spain!
Thank you! Yeah, it almost seems like it wasn’t meant to be for GB this year. Three of our best players are injured, got a bad draw and other results within the group haven’t gone their way. Still, they have a good record in these do-or-die games, and Austria should be a beatable opponent …
Ooo, jealous! Have a good trip!
What part of Spain? I’ve been reading a bunch of Spanish lit (over Latino lit) and want to visit!
Oh, of course, I forgot you knew the lingo!
We are going to Mallorca. I’ve been to Barcelona and that area a few times before. There’re so many Brits there you don’t need to know any Spanish (Disclaimer: I’m not saying that’s a good thing!)
Mallorca! Tax haven! They are autonomous, i think. Could be wrong. We just finished The Mallorca Files. I could live there!
