That's right! I paid for a medical exam in Ontario this past Monday, was so cheap with the exchange rate. $15 CAD for the blood test, I almost left a tip LOL. $40 for a chest X-ray, amazing.Yeah, but that's Canadian dollars, so it's not so bad.

Yes, I too am tired of the Bruins.Yassss! Went to the last home game of the season vs the Sabres and plan to get tickets for a second round game - just waiting on the dates and who they'll play. I kinda hope the Leafs beat Boston because I HATE the Bruins! But either way it'll be an entertaining series for sure.

It's at the San Pedro Square market, which is kind of like food trucks, but more permanent booths. They have a large patio in the back with a large screen projector tv. There is seating indoors, like a cafeteria. I'm sure they'll have tv's set up in there as well, but most of the action will be outside. It'll get crowded, so get there early if you can. Too bad they're not playing at home, the street rally is fun. They'll have them before each home game if you're in town again.
Good luck going to a Leafs game in Toronto. I believe the ticket prices are starting at one gazillion dollars. lol
Not accusing the Jets fans specifically but it has occurred to me that there might be a racial component to him being targeted. A lot of different teams have picked on him ever since he has been here. I don’t know if he was routinely booed before he got here. We have other players causing more trouble (like Hartman) who are never booed. It is unfortunate because PK is one of the leaders in supporting charities and is the most well spoken professional athletes that I have ever heard.So, something ‘interesting’ is being floated on Twitter right now..
Jets fans are being asked (not by the media or anything) to reconsider the tradition of singling our a player to boo at every time he touches the puck. For Nashville, it’s Subban, and the thought is that we’ll look racist being dressed in all white and booing a black player. We don’t chant at him or anything like that..just a boo.
Personally, I think it’s ridiculous. We boo other players as well and Byfuglien is one of the most loved players on the team.
No one has brought it up before so not sure why it would be an issue now.

Can I just say I despise crowd booing unless it's really deserved?
Even during the regular season the unofficial secondary market re-sellers roaming outside of Air Canada Center want a gazillion dollars. A few years ago DH and I tried to attend an early November weeknight game against some opponent like Arizona or St.Louis and the prices were outrageous, even after the first period was almost over.

Out of more than 18,000 seats at the Air Canada Centre only 96 seats were released to the general public for the playoff Leaf's first home game. Most were obstructed views and back rows. Only two pairs, the rest singles.
How obstructed? Like the overhang at Barclays Center where you can't see the goal?
I mean - the most obstructed seats I've been to for any sport were at the top of "Mount Davis" in Oakland for several baseball games. They were literally $2. They were not only sky high, but the setup was only meant for football. You couldn't see half the outfield unless in the first row kind of looking over the edge.

I was shocked the first time I saw a game from the Barclays Center. Can't believe the Islanders moved there. Didn't they learn from the Arizona Coyotes mistake?
They had to build a new place for better sightlines, right?
Yes, after about seven years in downtown Phoenix a new arena was constructed in suburban Glendale for the Coyotes.
The place downtown was built for the basketball Suns, and the Coyotes had the same problems as the Islanders do at Barclays Center.
I'm surprised to hear that Air Canada Center in Toronto has obstructed view seats.
