I Think I'm Addicted to HQ Trivia

I heard about this app a couple of weeks ago.  Naturally, thought the whole concept was dumb, which it is, but for some reason I kept playing.

 Every night 9 PM rolls around and I get that notification and it's go time!  The next 20 minutes of my life are dedicated to a game that is destined to crash and burn hard by Spring.

 The furthest I have gotten is question 7.  You have to get 12 questions correct to a have shot at $2000, but in reality you are probably going to win $15.  The catch is that you have to get to a balance of $20 in 90 days in order to cash out.  If you get all 12 questions right, win $19.99, and you don't win again in 90 days then no money for you.  So how much money is HQ really giving away?

 Somehow about 1 million people tune into this app each night, which is more people than most tv shows.   

 As long as the Habs are stinking and I'm avoiding games I'll be using this app.

 Habs and Avs tonight on TSN 2.  I'm giving thanks that nobody has TSN 2.  Nathan Mackinnon eat your heart out.

We are fucked

As my friend AngryHabsFan eluded to already, yesterday was the end of the world as we know it for Sens fans. Matt Cooke's skate caught Karlsson in the Achilles tendon last night on a scuffle in the corner. First off don't even think that this was Matt Cooke being a dirty player and that he did this on purpose. It was just one of those freak plays that happen. No timeline has been given yet for Karlsson's return but I think its safe to say that he won't be back this season. Hopefully he can return from this injury and still be a great player. We already have Michalek playing on robotic knees so hopefully EK can get a hold of Milo's doctor. Speaking of Michalek he also disappeared before the game last night with a mysterious undisclosed injury. No word on what exactly is the extent of his injury yet. So without Spezza, Michalek, Karlsson and Jared Cowen I think its safe to say we are fucked and need to focus on shipping out Gonchar at the deadline and going

10 Years Ago Today

Where did a decade go? I remember this game, and basically being on my knees throughout most of it.  When Laich scores the late goal in the 3rd I almost hurled, and then on top of that we take a penalty! The ride Halak gave us in 2010 will never be matched!  41 saves in a Game 7! No idea how Sportsnet isn't airing this one tonight!?  I'm surprised they aren't airing random 2016 Blue Jays baseball games instead. I don't need 80s and 90s game all week.  Mix in some modern classics like this!
