Okay, this seems like it was the wrong place for my previous question (about the new zealand coverage of the visit and questions) - Is there a thread I can ask it? Or is that off limits here?

No, San Jose wouldn't have won even if Hertl wasn't injured.

Sounds like just about everything stayed apolitical and went without incident. About the best we could have hoped for

A healthy Thornton's Knee + Hertl might have dragged it out another game, but there was no way SJ was going to win, you're right. But I did finally get a sharks finals puck for my collection, so it wasnt all bad.

But what if they had Johansen?

There used to be a political board (not that I ever used it), but it seems to have disappeared. High probability that such things have become too resource-intensive to moderate.

Toyan Johertl?

Glad the white house visit turned out as well as it did. No coverage on NHL.com where it has had a front page splash and stories previously and no jersey photo op either. Seems like everyone decided to keep it as low key as possible and just get it out of the way. Phew.

Toyan Johertl?

It's one way to get two good legs for the final. It would never work for the Pens but maybe for teams made of less fragil stuff.

It's too bad you couldn't just swap limbs like the Pens were Lego men. With the injuries we have, it would be nice to have replacement parts for each player.

Oops. I guess I misconstrued the "all purpose" in the title as meaning it was a safe place for politics. Carry on, penguin fans. Good luck this year (not that you really need it)

Well, there's the answer. I'm entirely unsurprised the URL says it's "unmoderated." I can't imagine wanting to moderate something like that.

Yep... no politics. I thought it was so nice seeing the Cup and the guys dressed up having their day. Now time to move on for the chance to 3peat.

And then we get to discuss the Penguins visiting the White House all over again.

They'd break all of the spare parts, Letang would have an allergic reaction, players would get the wrong part and Crosby would be too superstitious about it.

Our medical staff would end up replacing Sid's hands with a square block and not realizing the problem for a year.

They didn't always look like that?!?! We were busy checking out his shoulders...

Instead of a jersey, this is what they gave Trump. I actually don't think this is bad.

I wonder if its a little tongue in cheek about all the golf he plays...

 

[Ugene Magic]

Look away, Burkle. Look away.

Good. He doesn't deserve a jersey.

I like the practicality. I always thought giving presidents a jersey that they'll never wear was kind of cheesy. Now, the next time he golfs with Mario or Burkle, he has this.

Somehow I thought straight to this.
