Used to be how the defense kept the ice clear in front of their goalie but Gary Bettman wanted to expand the league in the US and wanted more scoring to attract more fans so you can't do that there anymore. It used to cause whiplash injuries so It's hard to say cracking down was a bad thing but not allowing crosschecking in the slot leaves the D kind of helpless.
I CAN'T UNSEE THAT!!!Whoa whoa whoa!!!
A high school nickname. So I didn't create it. The only thought I put into this was which nickname to use. Had I chosen differently you might know me as "Shwamper" short for swamp-piggy.
Cheers and be well.

Well, that's a horse of a different color. Mighty, mighty, they're strange folk in Texas.
I call myself the "parser" because I love to parse sentences.
I think that the English language is magnificent, so I try to use correct English.
For example, I am very disappointed that a lot of people do not know the difference between "it's" and "its."
And considering that ancient Greeks colonized Sicily and much of Adriatic coast of Italy most Italians have significant amount of Greek blood in them.There's a ton of Greeks in my city, and I grew-up with quite a few, with GreekTown just one neighborhood over. You've got that (bolded) dead-nuts on. They grow Oregano, we grow Basil. Big deal. Everything else underneath is the same. Well, except maybe the Greeks are a little easier going, and perhaps a little less likely to take an insult hard.
The way I heard this described by a new Asian immigrant citizen, is:
"The Greeks are just like the Italians, just a little crazier!"
I think that's an astute observation!
A bird specialist? Or do you just like that bird?
