Welcome to my hockey blog, I'm Katrina. Sens/ Avs fan. Canadian in the states. I come from a hockey family, we eat sleep and breathe hockey. Send me a message, I'm always up for some hockey conversation!

We asked our fans what they wanted to see on our Instagram page all week using #AvsFanstagram… And the overwhelming majority wanted this guy.

Who woulda thought.

If there’s one thing that hockey’s taught me, it’s this:

SWEDEN IS WHERE ALL THE BEAUTIFUL MEN ARE AT, Y’ALL

[gnusnoteunuchs]

experiment goal: to determine whether smarties are an effective tea sweetener

hypothesis: smarties will sweeten the tea, but also introduce unwelcome flavor profiles due to their flavoring

procedure: procured one cup (≈12 fl oz) of Barry’s Tea Gold Blend black tea, hot. added 2/3 of a single roll of smarties candy (10 candies). wait for candies to dissolve, then stir well. tea will be sampled after stirring concludes.

[gnusnoteunuchs]

addendum: control group was used. control sample consisted of one cup of the same type of tea, sweetened with white sugar. results will depend on the relative tastes of the control and smarties tea

[gnusnoteunuchs]

results: smarties tea was significantly more bitter and less sweet than sugar tea. additionally, the smarties failed to dissolve in the expected manner, and when stirred, ended up breaking down into particulates that refused to dissolve. 

conclusions: because of the chemical/structural makeup of smarties, they do not function well as an ad hoc tea sweetener because of their reluctance to break down. it may be the case that crushed smarties would work better, but this experiment was intended to study how normal, uncrushed smarties would work as a sweetener

Judy Goss, a sports psychologist at the Canadian Sports Institute (Ontario), has spent five years working with Daleman on her eating disorder and body-image obsession. “I was a gymnast so I have broader shoulders than most figure skaters,” explains the petite Daleman. At school, she’d wear long sleeves even in hot weather to cover his strong biceps. Her shape — and photographs of “Gabby” from age 6, 7, 8 show a youngster with astonishingly contoured muscles in her arms and legs — fed much of the bullying nastiness. “It was: You’re not pretty enough, you’re not graceful enough. Just a whole list of stuff why I shouldn’t be a skater. They told me my dreams were just dreams, they’ll never be a reality.” - Rosie Dimanno, The Toronto Star

Gabrielle “Gabby” Daleman is now an Olympic Champion.
