    Ken, your website content, podcasts, post-game reports, and subscribers video content have always been informative and entertaining. Often controversial as well. I’ve enjoyed the whole ride and hope to do so for years to come.

  4. Vic

    Got 8 correct which means I have no life. Been with the site from the start, and made my initial season ticket deposit due to education from this site. Was starving for VGK info,and this was, and still is, the place. Thank you Ken and Jason for the ride.

  5. JB

    I wouldn’t be to proud of a site that allows the posted crap on here. Mainly a alt-right site that has hockey as a cover.

  6. Emmanuel

    All time worst sinbin:

    1. Mike McKenna Videos (being honest, not trolling).

    2. All the extended non-VGK posting.

    left wing , aka democrat party, neo fascist tactics shut down by courts

    “A recent federal court ruling has temporarily halted efforts by New York Attorney General Letitia James to restrict crisis pregnancy centers from discussing a controversial treatment known as abortion pill reversal. This ruling, which came out of the United States District Court in the Western District of New York, represents a critical moment in a case that pits state authority against free speech and pro-life advocacy.

    Let’s break down what’s going on here. The conflict centers on the use of progesterone, a hormone that some claim can reverse the effects of Mifepristone, a drug commonly used to induce abortions. The Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), a legal organization representing several pro-life pregnancy centers, has challenged the actions of Attorney General James, arguing that her office is overstepping its bounds by trying to censor information these centers provide to women. According to ADF, James’ attempts to silence these discussions infringe on the centers’ First Amendment rights.

    Former President Trump has added former Democrats Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard to his transition team, broadening his coalition of supporters “across partisan lines.”

    “As President Trumps’s broad coalition of supporters and endorsers expands across partisan lines, we are proud that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard have been added to the Trump/Vance Transition team,” Trump campaign senior advisor Brian Hughes told Fox News Digital.

    “We look forward to having their powerful voices on the team as we work to restore America’s greatness,” Hughes added.

    RFK Jr., who began the 2024 cycle running for president as a Democrat, then shifted to run as an Independent, suspended his campaign last week and endorsed former President Trump—a historic move for a member of the Democrat Kennedy family dynasty.

    Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard also switched party affiliation, and considers herself an Independent.

    Gabbard, a veteran and the former Democratic representative for Hawaii’s 2nd congressional district, endorsed Trump this week.

    “I am proud to stand here before you today, whether you’re a Democrat, a Republican or an Independent,” Gabbard said. “If you love our country, as I do, if you cherish peace and freedom as we do, I invite you to join me in doing all that we can to save our country and elect President Donald J. Trump and send him back to the White House to do the tough work of saving our country and serving the people.”

    Gabbard, who ran in the 2019 Democratic presidential primary against Kamala Harris, was recently recruited by Trump to help with debate prep ahead of his Sept. 10 face-off against the vice president at the National Constitutional Center in Philadelphia.

    RFK JR DEFENDS ‘MAGA,’ TEASES MORE TO JOIN TRUMP ‘UNITY GOVERNMENT’

    Meanwhile, RFK Jr. took to social media this week to give his own definition of “MAGA.”

    “‘Make America Great Again’ recalls a nation brimming with vitality, with a can-do spirit, with hope and a belief in itself. It was an America that was beginning to confront its darker shadows, could acknowledge the injustice in its past and present, yet at the same time could celebrate its successes,” Kennedy wrote.

    “It was a nation of broad prosperity, the world’s most vibrant middle class, and a [sic] idealistic belief (though not consistently applied) in freedom, justice, and democracy. It was a nation that led the world in innovation, productivity, and technology. And it was the healthiest country in the world. I have talked to many Trump supporters. I have talked with his inner circle. I have talked to the man himself. This is the America they want to restore.”
