I wish I had AC
my room was like a Sauna
it's now reaching somewhat-acceptable levels
dude it's humid as fuck over here and 30+C/85+F
just bought one fuck yessssss
Holy shit how do you guys survive without AC then? Humidity is the fucking worst
Come to SD and you'll never look back, the perfect weather.
I knew that, but I thought they were suddenly implementing that exact type of rule.
we suffer until it's winter again
In Minnesota, from about late may-early october, the humidity never dips below 328%. AC is a must here.
it's raining three times at the same time?
34 degrees is pretty fucking hot for Vancouver and I live in a top floor apartment that faces the sun. it's like I'm being slowcooked
I hate the fucking summer. Anyone who tells me how nice it is outside is getting punched in the mouth.
Damn straight! There's still hope.
:lol are you sure you aren't living underwater?
Some of my family lives in a city called El Centro, two hours from here, and for some dumb reason family reunions sometimes end up being there
It's like visiting hell, I fucking hate it, not even Dallas is that hot.
Fewer Sesselmanns and Tancredis, particularly
Tancredi should had scored on that early chance. Sinclair deked out a few players and set her up perfectly, what a pathetic finish.

What's this humidity thing you're all talking about?

At least it's cooler on the coast. Here in the okanagan it's fucking 42C+ with no wind/shade/rain. For weeks. Dry heat sucks.
dry heat is so much better than humidity though. At least you don't feel as gross

Anyone seen Holland at all? Him and the scouts seemed to have disappeared after the 1st round yesterday.

Yup, replaces Sekera. Anaheim gets to shed $5.5 in cap space to use for Hagelin and Beauchemin. Wish the Wiz played more games this year for Anaheim
SD is the best city for weather. Also not terribly overpopulated. Carne asada fries and California burritos. Hot women. Phil's BBQ
Also San Diego Gulls.

What exactly happened between him and Boudreau/the rest of the team? We got him for basically nothing.

This is true.
Byproduct of having so many awesome lakes and rivers. I'll take the trade off.

They intended for him to be a key piece for the playoff run, but Pittsburgh traded Despres to Anaheim and had instant chemistry with Cam Fowler. Boudreau had Despres pegged as the 7th defenseman but played too well not to be used with Fowler. Wisniewski is a good defenseman but also came in hampered by an ankle injury. He didn't quite work out with Fowler or Stoner or any of the defenseman really. Tried a bunch of pairings.
In the playoffs Anaheim went with the 3 pairings that have worked best and that left Wisniewski out. He was a pro though and didn't complain, even helped with the coaching staff on the power play.
Also Beauchemin is a free agent and the team wants him back which would take some money so this deal was made to free up cap space and have room to sign Hagelin, Beauchemin, and get a goalie that is probably better than what we attempted last year when we had Labarbera and Bryzgalov in case of injury.
So just the situation with payroll and Despres emerging so fast. Nothing much more than that.
Hopefully he plays top 4 minutes in Carolina and contributes!
Bums me out since he's such a good dude, but that's the business I suppose.

Remember to follow the helpful tips along the 401, such as avoid rush hour traffic.
This was the first draft I tried to pay attention to, even though I really didn't follow many players and just focused on web updates. A lot more wheeling and dealing than I expected!
No idea who any of the picks from today are, some of them seem off the board, but I trust Timmins to do his job. Sounds like the Leafs did really good too, which is bad.
A lot of Habs fans freaking out over this, I laugh because when is the last time Bergevin said anything we didn't already know? He always makes the most plain, blanket statements. I have a really hard time believing he's not going out for a winger, I'm not sure what people expect him to say, "I really need a scoring winger, please come fleece me".
Wait, there was interesting soccer today? Copa America, I guess? Or did that end already?
You guys like ceviche? Because we got that too and it's fucking delicious.
Come, everyone! Just don't forget to bring your own water.

I wonder who will be our Rentals this trade deadline. I trust Bergevin. He's probably trying to get something going by trade deadline.

TFC isn't over
They will be once Gio is inevitably buried by some goon ;_;
Should be a Blue or a Duck.

I would be okay with Sharp as a Capital.
I'd rather see him in a Habs jersey though
Plinko
Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Is this even possible?
