I have a friend who is an organist. She has had both shoulders replaced. After each surgery it was a year before extending her arms to play the organ felt okay. Excruciating surgery and such a long rehab time.
Gophers/groundhogs are such a pain in the ass. I always have a shotgun on my tractor when I'm working or cutting grass or whatever. If I see one, I shoot it immediately.
I think Toronto's current strategy is to just count on their offense to score more than the other team. They have no defense, it's pathetic. Goaltending isn't the problem (for a change), he just has no help in front of him.
