/Although they added that kicking Price out of the game may have started a riot in Montreal

Hey, it's been a while since Montrealers reminded the rest of us what collective sacks of giant shitballs they are.

Amazing.

If Comeds were still alive he would definitely have noted that was Vinny Damphousse scoring and not the little girl Plekanec.

That's a lot of term and a lot of clutter bucks.

$375k more per year than Matt Stajan, who has very similar numbers.

Guess who just got their comparable for when they're UFA after next season

Sad news about Kevin Stevens, man I know that painkillers are a necessity for some folks, but the addictive nature of those drugs is very dangerous.

Yeah. Sounds like a guy who has some addiction issues. He was busted for coke back in the day too, wasn't he?

Anyway. Oxy is powerful stuff. I had knee surgery a couple months back and got a prescription for a whack of them. I cut myself off after like 4 days though. I could feel my self relying on them just a little for sleep, obviously pain and for just feeling good. I still have the rest of the pills in case of any setbacks (or injuries) and every now and then I get a little urge to pop one after a long day. They're addictive as hell for the wrong people.

??? Which are the right people?

True.

If I don't consider myself the "wrong people" I'm right on that border.

I had a procedure done last week. Surgeon prescribed Oxy. I bought a half quarter of weed (haven't been a regular user in many many years) and used that instead. Worked great and I'm totally not addicted. I swear. Definitely don't have a rolled j sitting in my cupholder.

Only problem was when I returned to work it was hurting pretty bad and I couldn't really pop out for a doob ya know.

Good thing they're keeping this winning core together.

wow ... i dont think Gillis or Gilman would have signed Clusterfuck to that deal ... timing is everything lol

 

[jstewismybastardson]

they might have given him a NTC though lol

 

[jstewismybastardson]

when i had my diverticulitis episode i was given hydrocodone ... Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ... did become ... comfortably numb

I said to myself that I didnt want to keep taking the stuff and stopped with about 10 pills left in the bottle

cleaning the med cabinet and recently saw it still there and the devil on my shoulder said ... "you know ... you could probably sell those "

/douche meter increased

Trying to suss out a solution to the opioid problem is a major goal of a lot of the research groups in my department, some trying to better understand what they do in the body to become addictive, others trying to develop non-addictive alternatives.

Getting the pharmaceutical lobby out of the decision on marijuana would be a great step, though, to providing a non-addictive alternative. There's some promise in peptide-based drugs, but they're still in the discovery phase, and aren't likely to hit the market for 5-10 years, unfortunately.

For various reasons, we probably have $5,000 (street value) of oxy, hydrocodone, and others in our cabinet. Besides bad luck (ruptured colon, ruptured disc, dental implant, etc) we have so much of it because it just doesn't seem to give the wife or I any actual relief. So the prescription goes unused, and accumulates.

Plus, they hand out scrips in this part of the world for everything
