@AshleyNunn Also, LOL The Sabres traded away 4 players off their roster for draft picks, because TANK TANK TANK TANK TANK

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz cracks up

LessPop_MoreFizz

But I'm happy because it means the Isles have a legit backup goalie now! Yay, Halak can take a night off!

Fun fact, Halak set the teams single season wins record last week. With 20 games left in the season. The Islanders have been bad for a long time, yes, but they were also utterly dominant for a long stretch once upon a time, and won 4 cups in a row, so it's not like they have never had a good goalie before.

It's just that they've been running him into the ground because they had no legit backup.

user15026

Yeah, I have no hope for the Leafs to do anything magical like that

@Yuuki Anything with lots of grease and fat and sugar is good hangover food. So yeah, pho is good.

@LessPop_MoreFizz Depending on the noodle house, they sometimes come separately.

We're going to switch over to ajax ads at some point, but just haven't had time.

Actually, come to think of it. I'm waiting for my boss to get a new VM set up so I should take a peek at that now. Provided I can find the AdTech docs.
