I don’t know if they’ve done an A Football Life episode for Julius Peppers yet, but when they do, they’ve gotta have this story in there lmao

With how Game 2 ended, Vegas getting two goals wiped out by reviews is setting up to make this game extremely funny.

Damn. He will be sorely missed.

JARVIS.

This is a fun series. And that’s only like 60% contingent on Vegas losing, which is a much lower number than I would have guessed.

No idea how the Canes kept that out.

Shout out to the Canes player who hid behind McNabb’s head lmao

McNabb takes an Ehlers slapshot to the shield, he quickly left the ice (no blood in this)

Damn, that really was a slap shot directly at his face. Not even at an angle; just straight into the front mug.

Oh, hi, Ray Bourque.

GHOST.

I would avoid doing anything that leads to Danhausen cursing you

60's young, man.

Yep, that'll just about do it.

This sucks because it's so clearly systemic that there's not much you can do *but* make changes. And that's anxiety-inducing.

The Avs have one shot on goal in the last 10+ minutes.

Insane sequence from Blackwood. This is the kind of play you need to win in the playoffs.

This has the vibe of a 4-1 game.

Sure, might as well just have the entire first line get injured.

This isn’t just an injury thing. This roster has legitimate playoff hockey flaws.

I dunno, man. Maybe trading a first round pick for a fourth liner at the deadline wasn’t the play if you’re just gonna get completely out-grinded, out-muscled and out-hustled anyway.

Everyone just milling around again. Bad defensive reads. No juice on offense.

Cracks me up how much better the Avs are in 4-on-4 than 5-on-4.

Martin Necas is dangerously close to having his career playoff goals per game average (.169) slip below half of his career regular season goals per game average (.312), which I'm not sure anybody's ever done before.

Jesus Christ lmao

Cool. Cool cool cool cool.

Now, it’s important to save some goals for Game 4. Don’t want to get ahead of ourselves here, but be prudent.

Getting way too cute if you can’t even get a shot on goal off a 2-on-1 there.

It sure *feels* like we're headed to a worst-case outcome with this Stanley Cup Final.

Playing Vegas has always reminded me of playing the Dallas Stars in the late 90s, and it just continues to be so infuriating.

I was hoping Wedgewood could at least be like their Antti Niemi, but the offense has to actually show up for that to be the case.

I mean, weren’t gonna win this one 1-0.

I like that 4-on-4 is just a power play.

Would prefer to win this one tonight.

FLORIDA SOFTBALL ONIONS.

Was only a matter of time.

Full time: #AVFC 3-0 Freiburg Aston Villa have won the Europa League. A first major trophy in 30 years. History made, legends immortalised

VILLAINS!

Just saw the latest LSU news, and I've gotta draw the line. If your name is _J, like AJ or BJ or CJ or DJ or EJ or KJ or LJ or MJ or PJ or RJ or TJ, you don't get to also have Jr. at the end of it. That's what the J is for!

Newhook again!

Lil’ bit of Game 7 OT hockey.

Maybe it’s cause I only ever actually watched the first one, but I never realized that Doug from The Hangover is Riley from National Treasure.

Trade is one for one.

Okay, that was a pretty crazy Mitch Marner goal.

So, they ruled it wasn’t a goal on the ice… spent 10 minutes reviewing it and deemed that it actually *was* a goal… and then Montreal challenged it and they overturned it to not a goal again. H…how?

Rest in peace to Jason Collins, an unthinkably brave person and incredible leader for the LGBT community. Over a decade later and his coming out column is still an astonishing piece of writing. Wish the sport had caught up more and that he could have lived to see it.

Just a brutal day, man.

Well.

Mackenzie Blackwood time. Feels like the right call.
