He's older and retired now. Andre beat his winning time from 2016 anyways.

Yes that's impressive indeed. Hopefully they move the women's gold medal soccer game to an evening start time due to extreme heat.
Game moved to 9p.m. Japan time 5a.m. our time Friday morning. "Go Canada"

Kraken expected to finish ahead of Knucks. Such a rip after the Knights rip off draft all these Biteman teams are weighted to win from the start not fair.

I don't think the Kraken will be anywhere near as good as the Golden Knights were in their debut season. Can't see them making the playoffs either, but I'm predicting that the Canucks will. On paper the team is alot better than last year,the pressure is on Travis Green to make it happen.

Hope so Gumps or it'll be another long winter with no snow in the cards.
