Y’know, I don’t think Lauren actually watched the game. Lightning “dominated” the Caps? Stamkos, Kucherov, and Hedman “completely outclassed everybody else on the ice”?

Thaaat’s it. There’s the jinx I was looking for. Thank you, Barry.

I read this in a Captain Holt voice and I’m not sorry I did.

You prefer dry humor to slapstick humor, we get it.

Handicap stall all day, brother.
