I hope they can get together for a mini camp in July.

It may change the asked for return for Monahan, or maybe it won't?

With all the Gaudreau to the Flyers talk when his deal is up in 2 years, maybe they would want a quality winger to eventually replace him, and Reinhart would fit that?

I'm completely guessing on that.

Chatter here in Calgary is if the Flames get eliminated in the play in or first round, Gudreau probably will get traded before next season.

A lot of talk of Gaudreau signing with the Flyera when he hits UFA.

Probably won't have fans at rookie mini camp which is a shame. I like to head down to that, stand in the corner where Tage Tallman shoots and watch him whip rubber around like happy gilmore

Here's the entire hearing without edits. The site's a bit difficult to navigate but it's there in it's entirety. https://www.c-span.org/vi...olds-hearing-hate-crimes#

Interesting to note that the second video you posted added applause and said that there was a standing ovation after an Owens response in the fist part. Although her response was good, no such thing happened.

- Michael Pachla

Yes, I remember hearing that applause and thinking it sounded bogus and added in. I almost didn't post the clip because of that, but I thought it was still worth it to hear. If I would've remembered the clip's title claiming "standing ovation", I probably wouldn't have posted it. The clip stands on its' own, the canned applause and the bs in the title only detract from it by adding the youtube poster's personal bias into it.

Assists and special teams don’t matter.

Him and Eichel flying down the ice could be fun. It would cost so much to get him.

We ranked as the 9th Best Prospect Pool. I respect the people behind Dobber Prospects even before this article so it’s nice to see.

Sorry to go off topic again, but I know all of us want to see things improve in our country. I wonder what more I can do than what I've always tried to do, simply treat everyone w/respect and decency. I've told more than one person over the years that I found their racist views ignorant. The co-founder of BLM in Louisville, Kentucky is helping us out by putting out a list of 10 things white people can do to help. https://youtu.be/085u0NnAgjA
Seem reasonable?
Yeah, it's for real. https://youtu.be/vhWO3kYXsrI
The author of the list speaks here.

The white shaming, guilt trip bs needs to stop. It will put some on their knee, but it will also cause equal parts resentment and anger. The specter they too often try to portray that most whites are racist against black and brown is, well, racist. Isn't it?
The Prove You're Not a Racist! Prooove Ittttt!! (Read in Sam Kinison voice) almost smacks of McCarthy running around ferreting out possible Commies, and anyone who ever even remotely associated with them. It's bullpoop.

Latest info says season won’t start until January 2021. Lovely. This means most, if not all, Sabre’s won’t see action for almost 1 year. Does the league realize the disparity this is creating? Just playing out the final 12 games of the season would have a huge impact on development. Letting 24 teams get such a Huge advantage is going to create a larger gap. Poor planning IMO

Part of me wonders if the league wants it this way. The same goes for the NBA. The later the season starts, the less it has to contend with football, which when you combine college and the pros, has basically become a seven day a week sport on its own.

The kneeling, and (literal) foot washing, and the chanting of oaths is creepy and weird. I will not be joining this new creepy and weird cult and their penchant for racial humiliation and Maoist struggle sessions. None of this is new, and when you look for historical examples of this type of behavior, the culprits are quite easy to identify.

Will the Stars owner make greater attempts to ensure his ice isn't total poop during the hot Texas months?

2 days/year when no games played by any of the major 4 sports. Day before and after MLB AllStar game. I’m all for starting NHL and NBA 1 month later than they do now. Would help get through the major 4 sports lull in the dog days of Summer. Nothing better than cranking up Roundball Rock while AC was driving OJ in the White Bronco.

Baseball is losing popularity, and it's going to get even worse for them given they can't even figure out a plan to come back when indoor sports have at least come out with a blueprint to do so. It makes much more sense to compete with early to even midseason baseball than it does football at any time of the year at this point.
