Well...not really. I am not a big Carlson fan and begrudgingly have admitted he has greatly improved his game over the past several seasons. I do not think he is worth his contract, but I have always been down on his marshmallow play and dopey persona.
I will say I no longer dislike him, but will never be a huge fan. I do recognize he is an asset, but I JOKINGLY gave him the moniker of Johnny Q Norris earlier in the season due to all the HYPE and total marketing ploy everyone seemed to be pouring on and forcing upon us.
I realize the role of the "defensemen" has changed, but I feel an ACTUAL Norris candidate should be an EXCELLENT D-E-F-E-N-S-E-M-A-N, not just a star player who scores a lot from the d side. He should be the best defenseman in the game, not the best offensive player who happens to be called a defensemen. IMO
Whoa...put the brakes on the rant...
But it was mostly said in jest. the giggle was from it having an asterisk on it because of the shortened season.
Now Alta is gonna be mad again cause I'm picking on his golden boy :raspberry:

The 1918 "Spanish Flu", (apparantly started in Kansas, through a mutation from bird flu ) killed many people during the Great War. Then there was a lull, then it mutated and came back ever more deadly and virulent.
Programme I saw on the BBC last night....
All Im saying is that a lull in figures of those infected, or dying, doesn't mean it's over and even more care needs to be taken.
This is not a secret, or hidden, or supressed fact. It is widely known and available.
Players in a locker room, showers, changing rooms.... NOT going to happen.
Let alone what sort of hockey they could possibly play with no contact and staying at least a metre away from each other..... :huh:

Well, they did NOT have antibiotics then, so any spread of disease was certainly more lethal.
I saw a similar show....years ago...pretty eye opening.
Research Typhoid Mary....she was a real....humanitarian.
