@darlngal It's the same company that operates in Camden Yards. Both teams have concessions run by Levy Restaurants, who is in charge of several different teams around the league.

@__KerryLyn130 Definitely true for the older generations (my aunt & uncle raised their boys as O's fans but immediately became Nats fans once they came to DC), but for people in that late millennial to Gen Z range, most of us were too young to remember a time where DC didn't have baseball.

@pauloffstage @BKHockeyTalk It's not about that. It's saying "Edmonton won't do anything in the playoffs" because they lost a game where they're missing their second-best player. It's to be expected that they're going to lose a few games to inferior competition when they're missing one of their top guys

@finznationftw @BKHockeyTalk I'm saying that judging how a team could hypothetically do in the playoffs off a game where they're currently missing one of their top two players is a bit of a reach regardless of who the opponent has.

@BKHockeyTalk Looking at their division though, if they stay in the top 3 of the Pacific, I could easily see them making it to the Conference Final. Vegas is mid and Anaheim's is not great defensively. Wouldn't surprise me if Edmonton beat them both in a playoff series

@b_acker70 They’re just incomplete even with Drai back. They’re not nearly as deep. and the goaltending is a HUGE issue.

@rutsburgh I know, but the principal point of contact here isn't the head. Wilson doesn't elevate up into the hit and drives his arm/shoulder through the chest of Pinto. I think people are making a big deal out of it just because it's Wilson. Anyone else, no one bats an eye

@b_acker70 If you make contact first that's a problem. They teach you in Junior not to make contact with head. Wilson is a heck of a player and his hit on Larkin in Olympics was clean, but this one murky at best

Have we really gotten THIS soft? Head is contacted first, yes, but Wilson drives through the chest/shoulder area to knock him down. Refs didn't even call it a penalty and got the roughing call for knocking off Cousins' helmet, which is a penalty. People only care bcuz it's 43

@RT8785 @Sports15110338 Just because you have Cups doesn't mean you're relevant. You've missed the playoffs each of the last three seasons and haven't won a playoff series in almost eight years. They're relevant again but they've been out of the news cycle for a couple years now

Tom Wilson's hit wouldn't even be getting attention this morning if it wasn't for Penguins fans being back on this app because their team is actually relevant again. I've seen 5x more Pens fans complaining than Senators fans about it. Never change, Pittsburgh, never change

@RT8785 @Sports15110338 He scored 44 goals last season mind you and has 25 this year. And the Penguins have missed the playoffs each of the last three season and haven't won a playoff series since 2018. So, in conclusion, this is the most relevant you've been in years

@Sports15110338 @b_acker70 they’re still holding on to a player that has to be roped to other players to drag him around the ice

@justinmcreech It is unbelievable. When Leonard got his head taken off by Trouba, my mentions were flooded with people saying "Rook has to keep his head up! Clean hit! Hockey's a contact sport!" As soon as it's Wilson, they want him banned from hockey and sent to Guantanamo Bay. Ridiculous

@letsgocanadien @kingconnor24 @grok Lane is as well, we're just messing with ya lol. I guess Grok being a paid service is a recession indicator, at least here in the States.

@torvarun It's just human nature. Puck is at his feet, he's looking for it, Wilson hits him. That's why I'm ok in certain instances with some hits because the players do have some responsibility. Like on boarding plays, if you turn at the last second and a guy hits you, that's not on him.

@b_acker70 Agreed. He drives through Pinto, not up. I still can’t get over how vulnerable Pinto makes himself. I feel like we need to get back to the basics of know who’s on the ice, head up, expect contact, and brace yourself
