Thee Official 2023-24 Playoffs Thread: Stop fucking crying bro, it’s not junior

[Fleetwood mactavish]

I'm trying to figure out how to get to Miami tomorrow but it's looking impossible. Any flights still available are like 15 hours, get there after the game starts, and cost like $2 grand.

My current gf is, uh, quite wealthy so I'm trying to hint that they should gas up the private jet for me, but it's too new a relationship to outright ask.

well like Marty Reasoner famously said, "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take"

no better way to find out if it's really meant to be than to ask here

as a bonus you can introduce her to user captain at the game, she'll be super impressed you know people from a hockey forum in Florida !

on that note, I can confirm user captain survived game 6 - he had a stop over at our place before heading to Florida

probably should have fed him a green smoothie instead of potato chips

All Dressed for the Cup

[pissfarm]

Oh man no way he went, did he?

[pissfarm]

Fuckin user captain living his best life.

[practice]

after game 7 there will be a flight quota for all CL members, 10 more flights this calendar year, and each way counts as a flight so book in soon

you can introduce her also to user practice who will be chained to the wheels of her family's private jet

anyway I will be watching at the worst 'pub' in London with an Edmontonian and the Globe's senior international correspondent, who really should replace whatever he was planning to file on Ukraine or Gaza with an account of game 7 with the buds

listening to on Struderick's podcast

[practice]

along with everything else that sucks about having to watch all these games in the middle of the night usually on my laptop imagine how much more difficult it is to wait an entire day plus an entire night for a game like this to start.

I got roasted in the climate emergency sun in St Leonard on Sea yesterday and woke up today feeling like I hadn't slept at all. I might experience some kind of organ failure on the night bus ride home

[practice]

imagine sitting in a big room full of people and not a single one of them is thinking about game 7 tonight and how fucking drunk and stoned they're going to get etc. unfathomable right

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Goilers! Janmark!

[nick]

Cody Ceci!

[Grand Moff Larkin]

What a pass by Ceci

[sutterfamily]

Reception by Janmark is the key, tho - good vision by Ceci but it's like fuckin bouncing. To take that off the bounce and on the backhand and maintain speed is pretty nuts!

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Tkachuk kicks his legs out enough there

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Welp

[Cacophony]

I have no stakes here and this is stressing me out
