Yeah but we're playing against (and probably with) a bunch of players that speak French. We are in the Q after all. :-D

My guy is definately benefitting from being a year older:

Flexx Torso:
Played 29 games with 13 goals, 13 assists, +21, 37 PIMs, 1 fight instigated, 1 fight won and an average rating of 7.38

Don't think I scored that many goals all season. Doesn't look like many people want to dance with him this season either.

Am I still missing practices or is that message a carry-over from the month before?

Maybe he's skipping practice to spend time with all of the beautiful French-Canadian women?

No donuts! I can't compete with the juggernaut that is Dunkin Donuts. They've got one on every corner here. Seriously, you can't spit without hitting one here. The funny thing is, people don't go there for donuts so much as the go for the coffee.

How about a nice pub instead?

No way. Dunkin is deeply entrenched in the US. I think the only place they're not huge is the west coast. There are a few Tim Hortons here but they don't make an impact. Plus, I was just reading an article in the paper and I saw something saying that Tim Hortons was bought by either Arby's or Wendy's. I can't remember which. The article was about Arby's buying out Wendy's. But it doesn't really matter. Your big coffee chain is owned by a second or third rate fast food chain. Here, Dunkin is the big dog and they own other chains.

Tim's is owned by Wendy's now. But they still have the best coffee in the world! Tim's is gods gift to the world. Plus it has such a great back story and name.

Tim's donuts and pastries and the like are garbage.

Always fresh is the name of the program whereby they make their donuts, pastries, bagels, and the like in a factory and then freeze it, ship it, and reheat it in the stores.

I agree with bruins DD is scary in their coverage . I figure at least in connecticut their is one DD for about every three miles. In my city alone their are six dunkin donuts. of course being the North east USA were a bunch of crazy, high stressed maniacs, just try driving around Connecticut, or worse Boston or NYC

I'm in Fredericton,NB a population of 80k when you include the greater area and we have 8 off the top of my head, plus the neighbouring town of Oromocto has...two(maybe more)? Out here, you're not really anything until you have a liquor store and a Tim's. And yes, WHEN the coffe is good it's awesome, sadly it's usually burnt. :rant:
