Welp Reimer in net against our kryptonite this season but Skjei and Fast back on the ice. Lets get 2 points and say goodbye to these fuggers.

Though maybe no Fast according to Rod.

Larkin is out for the season for them.... not sure how much it matters, hope we close this one out with two, Reimer is in net so we will need 4 goals.

No worries, I had the Moderna and the first one didn't kick in until about 12 hours later. Felt kinda crappy for about 12 hours, but I worked in the yard, worked on my Jeep and didn't let it take over. Got it at 8:30 AM and was fine by noon the next day.

I'm 65, had COVID back in November and it was, without question, the sickest I've ever been. Ended up in the hospital (never before been), and I have no medical history. The sickest I've ever been in my life was the flu before this.

If you're relatively young and healthy, you should be fine. The second shot was a little worse than the first, but same thing- kicked in about 12 hours later and felt crappy for about a day. But quickly went away and was back to my normal self.

Got that right. I thought the team and RBA were talking about wanting to win all of their remaining games?

I think I'm okay with this. Geekie played well in his absence when he was slotted in that spot.
