I have commented on that before. I guess he doesn't remember the blood feud.

He might not have been following hockey long enough to know about that hit. I remember watching that hit and the goalie fights that followed it. Those were good times.

It won't. Dallas is ****ed.

As long as the Canucks can't score, the Stars will win. 20 of 210 series have been won by returning from 3-1 deficits. Ten percent. It's not that uncommon. Remember, the Sedins are the Canucks most potent offence (and certainly not enough to carry an entire team), and they haven't scored since Game 1.

Interesting enough, it was Alexander Burrows who began that post-game scrum, not any Dallas player seeking revenge. Yet, Burrows slash on Brendan Morrow is intriguing. I remember one Canuck captain who was hurt from a legal hit. Steve Moore was declared public enemy number one in Vancouver- I wonder how Dallas will take this offence by Burrows against their captain?

That was so confusing. Why the hell would he have done that?

I was surprised about it as well. The NHL suspended him for 5 games and fined Playfair (head coach) $25,000 and the team $100,000.

Since the Devils won today, the 2nd round of the eastern conference is set:

Rangers vs Sabres

Senators vs Devils

Rangers vs Sabres is going to be a really good series. I don't think Buffalo is anywhere near their peak earlier in the season. They had a hard time dealing with the Isles' bigger and stronger D-men. The way the Rangers' D has played lately, I think they're going to give the Sabres offense a really tough time. If Henrik + the D shut down the Sabres offense like they've shut down every other teams' offense that they've faced recently, I wouldn't be surprised if Buffalo got eliminated.

Sens Devils is going to be a decent watch too. Two completely different styles going head to head. I think goaltending is going to decide the winner of this series.

In the West, I'm pulling for a Detroit and Dallas win, that way we get to see a battle of California between the Ducks and Sharks. That could possibly be the best series of the entire playoffs.

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
