Kings Humbled By Golden Knights 1st Period Domination

All any team needs to do is start their backup goalie and we’re done for.

Great article!! As a Kings fan, this article is so accurate. You left out some adjectives though, Kings looked terrible, amateurish, unmotivated, sickly, & daunted. The Kings have probably started looking at vacation plans starting April 28th. All these bad years of rebuilding and now limping into the playoffs. Vegas has rebuilt and are set for the next decade.

I was at the game. VGK played with ferocity and the Kings looked in disarray. We sat next to some Kings fans and I was ready to buy them a beer by period 3 – but not quite. Considering beers are $14/each and there were four fans, I had to refrain. Sorry, budget constraints.

The crucifixion and death of Jesus occurred in 1st-century Judea, most likely in 30 AD or 33 AD. It is described in the four canonical gospels, referred to in the New Testament epistles, attested to by other ancient sources, and considered an established historical event.[1]

In the canonical gospels, Jesus is arrested and tried by the Sanhedrin, and then by Pontius Pilate, who sentences him to flagellation and then hands him over to soldiers for crucifixion.[5][6][7]

Jesus was stripped of his clothing and offered vinegar mixed with myrrh or gall (likely posca),[8] to drink. He was then hung between two convicted thieves and, according to the Gospel of Mark, died by the 9th hour of the day (at around 3:00 p.m.). During this time, the soldiers affixed a sign to the top of the cross stating “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews” which, according to the Gospel of John (John 19:20), was written in three languages (Hebrew, Latin, and Greek). They then divided his garments among themselves and cast lots for his seamless robe, according to the Gospel of John. The Gospel of John also states that, after Jesus’ death, one soldier (named in extra-Biblical tradition as Longinus) pierced his side with a spear to be certain that he had died, then blood and water gushed from the wound. The Bible describes seven statements that Jesus made while he was on the cross, as well as several supernatural events that occurred. Among the eyewitnesses named in the gospels are Mary Magdalene, Mary, mother of Jesus, Mary of Clopas, and Salome, often identified as the wife of Zebedee.

Collectively referred to as the Passion, Jesus’ suffering and redemptive death by crucifixion are the central aspects of Christian theology concerning the doctrines of salvation and atonement. In Islam Jesus’ importance as a religious figure is acknowledged.

The earliest detailed accounts of the death of Jesus are contained in the four canonical gospels.[9] There are other, more implicit references in the New Testament epistles. In the synoptic gospels, Jesus predicts his death in three separate places.[10] All four Gospels conclude with an extended narrative of Jesus’ arrest, initial trial at the Sanhedrin and final trial at Pilate’s court, where Jesus is flogged, condemned to death, is led to the place of crucifixion initially carrying his cross before Roman soldiers induce Simon of Cyrene to carry it, and then Jesus is crucified, entombed, and resurrected from the dead. In each Gospel these five events in the life of Jesus are treated with more intense detail than any other portion of that Gospel’s narrative. Scholars note that the reader receives an almost hour-by-hour account of what is happening.[11]: p.91 

After arriving at Golgotha, Jesus was offered wine mixed with myrrh or gall to drink. Both the Gospel of Mark and the Gospel of Matthew record that he refused this. He was then crucified and hung between two convicted thieves. According to some translations of the original Greek, the thieves may have been bandits or Jewish rebels.[12] According to the Gospel of Mark, he endured the torment of crucifixion from the third hour (between approximately 9 a.m. and noon),[13] until his death at the ninth hour, corresponding to about 3 p.m.[14] The soldiers affixed a sign above his head stating “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews” which, according to the Gospel of John, was in three languages (Hebrew, Latin, and Greek), and then divided his garments and cast lots for his seamless robe. According to the Gospel of John, the Roman soldiers did not break Jesus’ legs, as they did to the two crucified thieves (breaking the legs hastened the onset of death), as Jesus was dead already. Each gospel has its own account of Jesus’ last words, seven statements altogether.[15] In the Synoptic Gospels, various supernatural events accompany the crucifixion, including darkness, an earthquake, and (in Matthew) the resurrection of saints. Following Jesus’ death, his body was removed from the cross by Joseph of Arimathea and buried in a rock-hewn tomb, with Nicodemus assisting.

According to all four gospels, Jesus was brought to the “Place of a Skull”[16] and crucified with two thieves,[17] with the charge of claiming to be “King of the Jews”,[18] and the soldiers divided his clothes[19] before he bowed his head and died.[20] Following his death, Joseph of Arimathea requested the body from Pilate,[21] which Joseph then placed in a new garden tomb.[22]

The three Synoptic gospels also describe Simon of Cyrene bearing the cross,[23] a crowd of people mocking Jesus[24] along with the thieves/robbers/rebels,[25] darkness from the 6th to the 9th hour,[26] and the temple veil being torn from top to bottom.[27] The Synoptic Gospels also mention several witnesses, including a centurion,[28] and several women who watched from a distance,[29] two of whom were present during the burial.[30]

The Gospel of Luke is the only gospel to omit the detail of the sour wine mix that was offered to Jesus on a reed,[31] while only Mark and John describe Joseph actually taking the body down off the cross.[32]

There are several details that are only mentioned in a single gospel account. For instance, only the Gospel of Matthew mentions an earthquake, resurrected saints who went to the city and that Roman soldiers were assigned to guard the tomb,[33] while Mark is the only one to state the time of the crucifixion (the third hour, or 9 a.m. – although it was probably as late as noon)[34] and the centurion’s report of Jesus’ death.[35] The Gospel of Luke’s unique contributions to the narrative include Jesus’ words to the women who were mourning, one criminal’s rebuke of the other, the reaction of the multitudes who left “beating their breasts”, and the women preparing spices and ointments before resting on the Sabbath.[36] John is also the only one to refer to the request that the legs be broken and the soldier’s subsequent piercing of Jesus’ side (as fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy), as well as that Nicodemus assisted Joseph with burial.[37]

In Mark, Jesus is crucified along with two rebels, and the sun goes dark or is obscured for three hours.[42] Jesus calls out to God, then gives a shout and dies.[42] The curtain of the Temple is torn in two.[42] Matthew follows Mark, but mentions an earthquake and the resurrection of saints.[43] Luke also follows Mark, although he describes the rebels as common criminals, one of whom defends Jesus, who in turn promises that he (Jesus) and the criminal will be together in paradise.[44] Luke portrays Jesus as impassive in the face of his crucifixion.[45] John includes several of the same elements as those found in Mark, though they are treated differently.[46]

An early non-Christian reference to the crucifixion of Jesus is likely to be Mara Bar-Serapion’s letter to his son, written some time after AD 73 but before the 3rd century AD.[50][51][52] The letter includes no Christian themes and the author is presumed to be neither Jewish nor Christian.[50][51][53] The letter refers to the retributions that followed the unjust treatment of three wise men: Socrates, Pythagoras, and “the wise king” of the Jews.[50][52] Some scholars see little doubt that the reference to the execution of the “king of the Jews” is about the crucifixion of Jesus, while others place less value in the letter, given the ambiguity in the reference.[53][54]

In the Antiquities of the Jews (written about 93 AD) Jewish historian Josephus stated (Ant 18.3) that Jesus was crucified by Pilate, writing that:[55]

Now there was about this time Jesus, a wise man, … He drew over to him both many of the Jews and many of the Gentiles … And when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, had condemned him to the cross …

Most modern scholars agree that while this Josephus passage (called the Testimonium Flavianum) includes some later interpolations, it originally consisted of an authentic nucleus with a reference to the execution of Jesus by Pilate.[6][7] James Dunn states that there is “broad consensus” among scholars regarding the nature of an authentic reference to the crucifixion of Jesus in the Testimonium.[56]

Early in the second century another reference to the crucifixion of Jesus was made by Tacitus, generally considered one of the greatest Roman historians.[57][58] Writing in The Annals (c. 116 AD), Tacitus described the persecution of Christians by Nero and stated (Annals 15.44) that Pilate ordered the execution of Jesus:[55][59]

Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace. Christus, from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the hands of one of our procurators, Pontius Pilatus.

Scholars generally consider the Tacitus reference to the execution of Jesus by Pilate to be genuine, and of historical value as an independent Roman source.[57][60][61][62][63][64] Eddy and Boyd state that it is now “firmly established” that Tacitus provides a non-Christian confirmation of the crucifixion of Jesus.[65]

Another possible reference to the crucifixion (“hanging”, cf. Luke 23:39; Galatians 3:13) is found in the Babylonian Talmud:

On the eve of the Passover Yeshu was hanged. For forty days before the execution took place, a herald went forth and cried, “He is going forth to be stoned because he has practised sorcery and enticed Israel to apostasy. Anyone who can say anything in his favour, let him come forward and plead on his behalf.” But since nothing was brought forward in his favour he was hanged on the eve of the Passover.
— Sanhedrin 43a, Babylonian Talmud (Soncino Edition)

Although the question of the equivalence of the identities of Yeshu and Jesus has at times been debated, many historians agree that the above 2nd-century passage is likely to be about Jesus, Peter Schäfer stating that there can be no doubt that this narrative of the execution in the Talmud refers to Jesus of Nazareth.[66]

Robert Van Voorst states that the Sanhedrin 43a reference to Jesus can be confirmed not only from the reference itself, but from the context that surrounds it.[67] Sanhedrin 43a relates that Yeshu had been condemned to death by the royal government of Judea – this lineage was stripped of all legal authority upon Herod the Great’s ascension to the throne in 37 BCE, meaning the execution had to have taken place close to 40 years before Jesus was even born.[68][69] According to another account, he was executed on request of the Pharisees leaders.[51]

hockey IS politics, in recent years we have been inundated with the “queer, the queens, the fags, the gays, the trans, the gender bender, benders, the trans, the trans genders, the pedos , the dragster rainbow coalition hijacking Noah’s rainbow” or whatever the “cool” flavor of day “identity politics” label they want to call themselves.

In the face of all this FUCKING BULL SHIT the normal people are re confirming their status. If you are “offended’ by my straight talk, then you are part of problem, not part of solution, and if you respond as such I will tell you to your face to go fuck yourself.

It’s called SUPER STRAIGHT. And it means that your conviction to your gender from day you were born, and your respect and love for the opposite sex gender from the day you were born which GOD has given you from day one. Anything less is anti Humanity, Anti GoD and anti AMERICAN.

sez me, that is my opinion and exercise of my free speech. If you don’t like it,
than change the constitution.

if anyone who doesn’t believe this shit is happening in our schools then they are either brain dead or in a coma or just plain stupid

The Texas Senate has passed a pair of bills that seek to prevent children’s exposure to sexualized performances and events like “Drag Queen Story Hour.”
