    Crazy thing is if Pens had held on 3-2 in regulation, them, Isles, and Wings would have all clinched playoff berths last night.

    It's okay Grimm, that point was actually pretty big. They can't win a tiebreaker with the Pens, so they have to gain 2 points on you guys with 2 to go, and you play Buffalo last game of the season. Not to mention the struggling Isles next. I think you're fine.

    Hey, it's not a bad thing for new fans. Part of me relishes the idea of playing the Isles in Round 1 just to get revenge for the Easter Epic. Still hurts after all these years, although that was right about when I first started following the Caps. Elurin there actually isn't any scenario...

    Even if they don't make it, some things to build on with some of that young talent. Stone, Pageau, couple others have been great this year. Not sure if Hammond is as good as his numbers have been. If his run had been as long as Dubnyk's has been in Minnesota, I'd be more of a long term...

    Caps clinch! Getting a point was still big for Ottawa. 2 points back of Pitt, Boston, and Detroit all with 3 games to play. They do play Pens though so they can get even with them (although they won't win the tiebreaker). Heard Ottawa was 19 points back of Pittsburgh on Feb. 12th, next...

    Also completely agree with hodj position on the study of homosexuality being linked to genetics.

    Says he read it all, doesn't realize that if a study has found multiple genes linking to sexual orientation there could also be others. Pretends this somehow provides proof IN ANY WAY that this study completely answers the question that some homosexuality is by choice.

    I'm torn, do I root for Toronto to win because any loss by Ottawa locks us up a playoff spot tonight...or knowing the math for us to miss the playoffs is pretty ridiculous at this point, do I root for Ottawa to keep winning to maybe push Pittsburgh out of the playoffs so they can win the lottery...

    Pens just can't beat the Flyers. Scary thought, Ottawa actually controls it's own playoff destiny now. If they win their remaining 4 games (including a win over the Penguins in regulation), they'd be guaranteed to at least finish ahead of Pittsburgh.

    Right, I just wasn't sure if anyone else was actually even suggesting a doctor refuse service to a gay person if they were claiming it was against their religion, or just using that as a hypothetical example versus the shrink one.

    The only time I wasn't sure about hodj was the whole "gays getting refused service at the hospital" thing.

    I would rather you use that cookie to distract whatever went off in Green's head that made him think a way-too-fancy drop pass to the other D man when you're the other D man already committing yourself to the play (during 4 on 4 no less) was a better idea than just putting an uncontested...

    The choice of these people...while at their jobs where they do work...was not to work. Such a terrible thing to have to adhere to fair business practices. If all they're being asked to do is bake a cake, it violates nothing in their religious beliefs, it's just an excuse to show their hate.

    Doesn't it basically mean, you're not turning gay by providing them with service, nor will God strike you down for helping a gay person. That sounds like the gist of it to me. Note not strictly limited to gay, just using for this example.

    No, you make yourself sound clueless when you don't clearly state the difference between ethnicity (we're all human), gender, and sexual orientation. Or even have any case that there is one. None of them are a choice. If someone's freedoms stop where another person's start, why is it...

    So you're saying is blacks, women, and gays shouldn't have individual rights, or we should protect someone's "freedom" to prevent their individual rights over their ACTUAL individual rights because they are undesired groups.

    So basically blacks and women are just as bad as gay people as an "undesirable group", and we need to draw the line somewhere and stop letting the government protect these groups because they shouldn't have any personal freedoms. Is that what you're saying Siddar?

    I think John Harbaugh is a little underrated in that he has a much calmer, quieter personality than Jim did. His attitude I think helps keep that locker room settled when many times with the personalities they have (or had even) on that team it could get a little out of control.
