This might be a good thing.  Americans may realize there is much of importance they have ignored so they can sit and watch sports in their free time. Sports is an opiate or Prozac for the masses. Between sports, alcohol, and work leaves no time to pay attention to the world around us and we rely on mass mind control media to tell us everything we think we know about the world around us.

Maybe it's time to read some books, open your eyes, see what has really been going on.
Be careful what you ask for America; you just might get it.

Well....let's look at the bright side...(since the season is over)


Ovi will get a "share" of another Rocket, but sure he would rather have another 50G season.


At least Johnny Q Norris Dylan Carlson's Norris Trophy will always have an asterisk next to in the record books  :snicker:

if the league doesn’t restart in the next 10-14 days, it’s over. They can’t push back a full playoff schedule that far. A few of these arenas won’t make a good ice sheet in the middle of summer and it puts things too close to next season

     Are you assuming he is going to win the Norris? He might but I sure as hell wouldn't vote for him.

      They might have to shorten the season and playoffs if they still intend on finishing this season.

I can't see the season restarting any time this year.
Either no Cup wil be awarded, or t will go to the current highest ranking team, which is undoubtedly the Bruins.

To add......
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:

from Wikipedia on the 1918 Spanish flu...


"In 1993, Claude Hannoun, the leading expert on the 1918 flu for the Pasteur Institute, asserted the former virus was likely to have come from China. It then mutated in the United States near Boston and from there spread to Brest, France, Europe's battlefields, Europe, and the world with Allied soldiers and sailors as the main disseminators.[27] He considered several other hypotheses of origin, such as Spain, Kansas and Brest, as being possible, but not likely. Political scientist Andrew Price-Smith published data from the Austrian archivessuggesting the influenza had earlier origins, beginning in Austria in early 1917.

In 2014, historian Mark Humphries argued that the mobilization of 96,000 Chinese laborers to work behind the British and French lines might have been the source of the pandemic. Humphries, of the Memorial University of Newfoundland in St. John's, based his conclusions on newly unearthed records. He found archival evidence that a respiratory illness that struck northern China in November 1917 was identified a year later by Chinese health officials as identical to the Spanish flu.

A report published in 2016 in the Journal of the Chinese Medical Association found no evidence that the 1918 virus was imported to Europe via Chinese and Southeast Asian soldiers and workers. It found evidence that the virus had been circulating in the European armies for months and possibly years before the 1918 pandemic."


does anyone believe anything that comes out of today's Chinese government??

North America isn't really known for being a source of these kinds of things, I suspect it has to do with the indigenous population being nearly exterminated by European diseases in the 1500-1800s and the widespread deforestation of the place as the Anglo population moved west. Also of note, WWI ended primarily from the lack of healthy bodies from the flu to continue the fighting and dying. Rather ironic.

I'm sure there are ver, very many viruses that are in existence. 

The programme that I saw traced the initial stran of the "Spanish Flu"back to some fella named Richard..somthing.  Sorry, can't remember the surname off hand.  He was a young farmer, who apparantly contracte thde virus through a strain of bird flu, then got conscripted, went to a training camp and then on a boat......

Not the poor bloke's fault.  Or anybody elses, for that matter.
It only got dubbed the Sanish Flu"  when the second and even more deadly strain hit.

yes, I’ve seen what’s probably the same program. I haven’t seen any other evidence to link the Spanish(that’s a clue right there) flu to Kansas. Unfortunately, a lot of those shows you need to some research of your own to confirm what they are presenting.


and where you been?? Thought you had succumbed to the wuhan flu

Lol!  Thanks for caring.   :hearts:
