A Hockey Puzzle:

Claude, Sean and Jacob were sitting around shooting the breeze last September.

Claude: Coming up is the 25th anniversary of the first goal I ever scored in an organized game. Can you guys guess which day it was? I will give you a list of possibilities:

October 11, 12, 15; November 13, 14; December 10, 12 and January 10, 11, 13.

Further, I am going to tell Sean the month and Jacob the day among these choices. No communication between you two.

I will ask you guys questions in turn, and no one can speak unless questioned.

Claude: Sean, do you know the answer and do you think Jacob knows?
Sean: I don't know the answer, but I am certain Jacob doesn't either.
Claude: Ok, Jacob, do you know the answer?
Jacob: I previous didn't, but after Sean answered, I do now!
Claude: Sean, do you know the answer now?
Sean: You bet I do!

Questions to y'all: what the answer to the original question and how did Sean and Jacob guess it?

Allotted time: 5 minutes.

Because everything upsets everyone these days

Apologies for changing the discussion to hockey, but thank (frank) there’s a game tonight.

Hoping they are able to come up with a strong effort. I think Hart is going to have to keep them in it, and we can hope to squeak out a win.

Just noticed that the The isles are coming on strong lately. Passed us for 2nd. Need to get some points out of the next two games and tonight would be a great start. I don’t have high hopes for the Boston game but that’s fine due to current circumstances.

I'm definitely curious to see this game. This lineup looks pretty bad. Hope they can hang in there. Boston could be ugly

The Isles have played 2 more games than the Flyers.

Boston will be ugly. With Lake Tahoe elevation conditioning (or lack of it due no games, no practice period) will become an issue.

It could be worse. As has been said, we have our top 3 centers, all of our D and our number one goalie. Lets win a low scoring game here aye?

The Sh!t list

If we don’t beat the Rangers tonight, I will burn this mother down.

The Sh!t list
- ClaudeFather

good to hear; then I am doing my job well. Maybe you can create a top 10 poop list. That is your assignment for the day.

Thinking of the players tonight who are getting a shot at the big club, who are you looking forward to seeing the most?

I think from a perspective of who could be impressive, I am going with Kase. He played well overseas and has had a good start in LHV. In the "just want to see it" I would love to see Morin have an intimidating game.

IMO Kase can be an nhl player. Not sure if he will get that chance with the Flyers. Maybe he replaces raffl next year.

I would agree, he should be able to catch on to the 4th line. I like his speed and compete.

we're exaggerating how depleted this lineup is

those 6 D are all regulars

our top 3 centres are all playing

the bottom forward line won't see many minutes

There are holes for sure but no need to panic. The guys filling in all want NHL roster spots so it's time to step up and show it.
