Sadly, I dont think the old bird is going to last much longer. :'(
I say, "old bird", in humour, but that belies the huge respect I have for her and her total and utter dedication and service. Her grace, her dignity, her humour and her humanity.
God knows, our monarchy have enough black sheep to fill a field and then some, including present day. Not her.
She is an outstanding woman. An outstanding human being. I am very sad that she can't attend many of the celebrations this weekend.
She is our Standard. Our heart. Our conscience.
She has always been what Unites us and what makes us Great.
God bless her.

For the recored, "Totes Emosh" means totally emotional.

well Edmonton shit the bed again last night. So disappointed in them. Really thought they had more going for them.
For God sake they need a goalie. Smith has showed some spots of great play and then just lets in one you HAVE TO HAVE. Not his fault, but at some point you HAVE to make those stops to give your team a chance. They already barely have a chance and then when you let in goals you should have....it just exacerbates the problem further.
Not sure what happened to Tampa either, but I'd rather see them lose.
Looking like Rangers and Colorado. Ho-hum. I can't pull for either of them.

And one more thing....
Kane is to have a hearing for the boarding call. :huh:
Did anyone see this? I saw it. They gave him a two minute, then got together and discussed and gave it a 5 minute boarding call (I think). As much as I hate Kane....this was NOT worthy of 5 minutes. He taps Kadri across the back and he fell into the boards. Go back and watch it. Yes, Kane cross checked him across the back with a push. Yes it was somewhat near the boards and Kadri fell onto the ice and into the boards. It was not a crushing blow from behind riding him face first into the glass. It was a push from behind - completely stupid and worth a penalty. But not 5. Not worth reviewing. The five minutes could have very well cost Edmonton the game, but they managed to survive it. - many good stops by the GT (who would fail them later)
Killing off the penalty kept them in the game.
My problem is every announcer immediate started lobbying for a major penalty. I watched the same play they did and I disagree. Yes worth a penalty, but there was no violence in it - he didn't drive the guy into the boards, he just pushed him.
They really do want to try and take all the physical play out of the game :'(
