Broken in spirit is worse, lonesome.  I get a kick out of the constant refrain of fixing up costing more than it's worth, as if everything has to be a profitable commercial arrangement. I doubt members think that way generally, including collectors who admire provenance and craftsmanship as much as the dollar.

Watching the Caps, they are on autopilot at times. Playing crushing defense,  then turning on the offensive pressure for a couple minutes then going back on defense. Its like they are conserving energy for later in the playoffs. Works on lesser teams, like the first round, but dont expect it to work in the next round. But if they are not too banged up they should be better off in the next round. Guess thats what the coaches hope for. Easy first round to be healthy in the next.

Watching the Caps... Playing crushing defense...    Not tonight.  Ovechkin did crush this kids face though. Young, dumb, and full of con cussion.   (Then Mrazek hits him on the head going to the locker room :-) ) https://youtu.be/SeUmmkn4meg____________________________ This is a hockey thread, King. Not that interested in your philosophy.  Looks like Sid is going to get a jump on fishing season, eh?

Winnipeg will be winning tonight just as the Conservative party  in Alberta has won tonight. By a commanding majority. Good riddance to the socialists who screwed up Alberta for the last 4 years. 
  We can only hope the Conservatives sweep Trudeau from office in the same fashion come October. Before Trudeau is able to pass the bill prohibiting handguns.

Yeah, on the Kid. You didn't mention Sunday night's other Nova Scotians, MacKinnon and Marchand, deciders in their games. Go Nova Scotia go!
