Paul McCann: Preds do the right thing... SSR tonight.

If seeding happens on points percentage Vancouver (.565) actually takes 3rd in the pacific over Calgary (.564), which would push Calgary to the final wildcard spot behind Nashville.

They should just negate the rest of the regular season and start the playoffs when/if they resume. It'll likely be May before they do.

It's still amazing to me that people still think this is a hoax. I mean, the trend has been anti-science for a while now, but even when faced with evidence? People believe conspiracy nuts more than actual doctors and scientists.

As a society, we're circling the drain.

This is the ultimate consequence of dismissing legitimate news media as fake just because people don't like what they're reporting, or cherry picking facts and dismissing others that don't line up with the view you'e trying to sell. Both sides are guilty of this. It's led to a climate where people are more susceptible to buy into bogus stories they find on the internet, or simply pick and chose which news cycle they want to follow based on what they already want to believe, instead of actually doing their research and finding the actual truth which is always somewhere in the middle. One these news networks needs to get their rump, chuck any political bias and report things the way they actually are, and that way sane rational people will actually have a place to go to get actual news from.

This is the biggest problem in he world today. There's no middle ground anymore, nobody's allowed to have a balanced opinion, because if you don't completely fall on one side of the argument you're immediately the enemy and we hate you, and anything you say is going to go in one ear and out the other.

Yeah, no. Bothsideism is exactly what the problem is. Both sides are not doing this. Let's not mince words, the GOP has been peddling conspiracy theories for years and now they've put a tin-foil wearing moron in the White House.

Remember, last week the virus was the latest Democrat hoax. They also think climate change is not real. Birtherism, Alex Jones and thinking the school shooting was "crisis players", the guy Hillary supposedly killed, the child sex ring run out of a pizza place. And those are just the big ones. 1984 is actually playing out before our eyes, but "both sides". Give me a break.

I'm so glad that my elderly parents have been put at risk because some people think both sides do this garbage.

You forgot about the massive voter fraud in all the states the current president didn't win handily. I'm convinced most republicans know climate change exists, they're just paid handsomely to pretend it doesn't, and please don't get me started on Alex Jones and his magic toothpaste... I'd probably get banned.

I probably should've worded that better, in fact I think I'll go back and do that, but I wasn't trying to say both political parties make up their news. My point was that the voters who align themselves with a particular party cherry pick the news stories they want to believe, and try to demonize anybody that doesn't totally agree with what they personally believe. That's what both sides are definitely guilty of. It wouldn't kill anyone to respectively disagree with somebody's views, provided their not completely bat-poop Alex Jones level of crazy, without immediately resorting to flinging poop at each other.
