Sporkless made me post this. He’s tough but fair: While I’m at it, check out this flukey play: To recap: Roloson tried to play it off the glass and apparently forgot about the whole “angle of reflection” dealie from physics class.

One more strange thing about Canada and America is how people like to write things in lists! I almost think they lack intelligence to write like normal prose, but then I think no, [...]

Until I moved out west, I never realized how generally crappy Hockey Night in Canada’s coverage of the Western Conference was.
