I'm probably over-reacting here.

It's probably going to be just fine.

It's going to be rough for every non-white or non-asian ethnic person.

PS This includes Finns

And what about the other subjects?

2 things:

1. epic debate over kessel trade last night. i'm not surprised that it happened, i'm surprised seguin wasn't brought up in any meaningful way.

2. turtleneck showed his value last night...i'm not surprised the haters of babs seem to be missing on these boards today.

The Joke is on them! The Finns haven't qualified for a World Cup in like... 50 years or something!

Correction: Never!

I'm always dumbfounded by the fact that China and India with their populations can't produce a competent team. It's nuts.

3, and it's just used as a way to keep track of them. most mysteriously die of natural causes 3 weeks later

I said it a few times before the playoffs started, I think its an underrated move overall. Especially now we see Kadri is out. It kept the Leafs from either nullifying Matthews line or getting Bozak torched against Bergerson line

he wasnt scoring but he was getting poop zone starts and not getting smashed all the time like most 4th lines

The Kessel talk was a little weird, several pages of it and there was no resolution to any of it..

All but Moskva, but it's illegal federally to promote homosexuality which causes a fine. The law is (frank)ed.
