yes I know, best goal scorer we've had in years. I wouldn't trade him just for the fun of it, the return would need to be huge.
did you visit around or did you stay at the resort?

Mostly stayed at the resort, but we did go into the mountains to play around with monkeys and see how they cultivated their coffee and cacao.

Brought back a big bag of coffee, tastes awesome.

Bought some Mamajuana too, which is a drink they make with spices mixed with other alcohol.

Did you listen to this podcast on the Athletic?

https://theathletic.com/p...-hockey-show/?episode=614

On this week’s Prospect Series episode of The Athletic Hockey Show, Max and Corey are joined by The Athletic’s own Scott Wheeler to discuss Corey’s and Scott’s two-round mock of the 2023 NHL Draft, including interesting choices for the Habs at No. 5, the Flyers at No. 7, the Blues at No. 10, and the Jets at No. 18.

Plus, FloHockey’s Chris Peters jumps in with Max and Corey to help explain why Matvei Michkov is the real story of 2023 NHL Draft and the guys close things out with a bunch of listener questions in the mailbag.

I'll check it out! Thanks!

I don't recall what the mountains were called, only that a few families live there and cultivate stuff for the past 200 years.

I was also shocked to learn the whole region of Punta Cana (where my hotel was) actually belonged to 4 guys.

These people bought part of a country (including the cities, roads, fields, everything) and they manage it themselves. That's insane.

ok you were in Punta Cana, thought it was a different place.
me what I find weird is that on one side of the island you have a somewhat well run country with lots of tourisme, and on the other side of the island total chaos for decades.

I too believe he will sign. it's just that we don't have anything else to talk about for the time being. something like 7x7, maybe a bit more

goals are expensive, hoping the Habs keep his salary below Suzuki, it would instill an internal cap like the Bruins did back when Bergeron/Marchand kept their salary "team friendly" to build a competitive team

Working....or trying to, my neighbor to the left in redoing their interlock driveway and a huge backyard pad that serves as a deck and a space for their hot tub. My 2nd neighbor to the right is redoing their inground pool, it's noisy and dusty as hell right now.
