Nobody insulting it or other people just for eating it are worth knowing either, fwiw.

That Twix shake got me to try BK and see if my tastes changed. Think I'm good for at least another 10 years.

Although I still like a Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwich at least once a year. Bummed I didn’t get to try Popeyes as our token black hockey player on our team said it was amazing.

The only part of this blog that actually rings true is GMJR's lack of effort to speak with Malkin. Treating him like that instead of a cornerstone of this franchise is franking pathetic.

Outside of that, uh, dude just read the Rossi article. Geno literally admits to his lack of follow through with training elements, stretching properly, mental state, everything. Yah, his deployment wasn't favorable, but you are way off point here. Maybe you should take a trip to Moscow and center yourself as well.

There wasn't anyone who played regularly on the second line or pairing that didn't need to be better IMO. Malkin, Kessel, Schultz, Maatta, JJ, the rotating casts at RD and LW, none of them really played well. That group needs to be an advantage, not just treading water.

Optimistic on Malkin and hopeful for better from Schultz. Hope they find the right 3 guys to play with them.

I still have a weakness for Wendy's when I'm lazy. Doesn't help it's 2 blocks from me. But don't do BK or McDonald's anymore.

I know I'm a few days late on this and it's probably already been discussed...

But I cannot believe we let Gardiner go to the Hurricanes for the salary of what a Johnson or Gudbranson is making.

A defense of

Letang-Dumolin
Schultz-Gardiner
Pettersson-Johnson/Gudbranson

sounds a lot better than what we have. Plus it makes losing Schultz that much easier next offseason.

Sounds like Pierre Olivier Joseph has made a good impression so far. Needs to pack on the pounds, but I think him and Addison can give this defense a needed boast next season, if not sooner.

I had a wendy’s spicy a few months back and it didn’t taste the same.

I’ve been eating less and less fast food in general, but if I do it’s generally Fatburger, Chick fil a and raising canes.

What’s Raising Canes?

I never got the Chick Fil A hype. It’s okay, it was always too salty for me. If I wanted fried chicken I would just go to Popeyes.

Bruh. Loving animals and loving to eat animals are things you can do at the same time.
- Feds91Stammer



Yeah I f'n love animals and I f'n love meat. The way I see it is most of the animals we eat were born only to be eaten anyway. So if we weren't eating them they wouldn't even exist.

Have any of you checked out the ingredients on these "healthy" meat alternatives like Beyond Meat?

Crazy amounts of additives, chemicals and sh!t.

I regularly do Chick-fil-A and Taco Bell but that’s basically it.

People always equate Beyond Meats with a healthy alternative when it isnt. There is 0 evidence that their product is healthier than eating the meat. It is purely for people who like the taste of meat but who feel guilty about eating meat.

I agree with you. Its not a good product.

Anyone who thinks turning plants into meat wouldn’t involve an unnatural process is fooling themselves.

I pan seared two Beyond Meat patties in a cast iron on the grill. There was more oil in the pan after that then if I'd cooked a pound and a half of bacon.

It looks like pink dog food before cooking and gives you the poops from all the oil.

Galchenyuk is definitely the LW, I think we will see a rotation of Kahun, Hornqvist, Rust, and Tanev throughout the season at right wing.

Malkin's loneliness? When you make millions upon millions of dollars, is there any reason to be apart and complain about it? It's not like they were barely scraping by and HAD to be in separate locations.

As a person who has had to do this to keep paying the bills, I find this ...
