I've never been to the race, but I have attended time trials. As y'all are saying, it truly is an amazing experience.

Per NHL Rulebook:

10.3 Broken Stick – Player - A broken stick is one which, in the opinion of the Referee, is unfit for normal play.

A player without a stick may participate in the game. A player whose stick is broken may participate in the game provided he drops the broken stick. A minor penalty shall be imposed for an infraction of this rule.
A player who has lost or broken his stick may receive a replacement stick by having one handed to him from his own players’ bench, by having one handed to him by a teammate on the ice or by picking up his own unbroken stick or that of a teammate from the ice.
A player will be penalized if he throws or shoots a stick to a teammate on the ice, or if he picks up and plays with an opponent’s stick. A player may not participate in the play using a goalkeeper’s stick. A minor penalty shall be imposed for an infraction of this rule.

A player using a stick thrown on the ice from the players’ or penalty bench will not receive a penalty. However, the person responsible for throwing the stick will receive a bench minor penalty.


10.4 Broken Stick – Goalkeeper - A goalkeeper may continue to play with a broken stick until a stoppage of play or until he has one legally provided to him by a teammate. The teammate cannot throw or shoot it to the goalkeeper (this includes situations where the goalkeeper has lost his stick and a teammate is trying to return it to him). For a violation of this rule, a minor penalty for throwing the stick shall be assessed to the offending player (no penalty to the goalkeeper for receiving the stick).

A goalkeeper whose stick is broken or illegal may not go to the players’ bench for a replacement but must receive his stick from a teammate. A goalkeeper may participate in the play using a skater’s stick until such time as he is legally provided with a replacement goalkeeper’s stick.

For an infraction of this rule, a minor penalty shall be imposed on the goalkeeper.

Go Avs Go!
Played the Pick 3 $1 straight. Played the same number twice for the same drawing. It hit, and each ticket paid $500 a piece.
...by the way they treat the wait staff.
My friend had a paper route. We'd load all the papers into the back of the station wagon, we'd leave the back open and 3 or 4 of us would sit facing backwards with our feet dangling just above the street. Someone would drive a short bit, we'd grab papers and scatter, running to and from the houses as fast as we could...jump back on the back of the wagon and repeat. None of us were over 13, not even the driver. ?? Sooner it got done, the sooner we could play.
When it's open.
When it's on fire.
First of the month.

They were until early January. They're still really good, but not winning 7-8 in a row like they were consistently. They'll still be hard to be in best of 7's.

Would like to see them find their stride and bring Lord Stanley back to Denver.

MacKinnon/Makar/Necas are must watch hockey.
Did the authorities discover the domestic disturbance during a wellness check?
Common word.

Got it in 3.
