I don't think their F2P model is as good as it used to be - those Legendary bundles are awful - but it's still pretty good.

Including vendor junk food items in the giveaway is certainly a choice, but from the picture it looks like there will eventually be things that people actually want...

 

December 9: 5 x Rippleberry Fruit Cake

All interviews I've seen have said this is the mainstream Doctor.

Which doesn't mean Picardo couldn't do double-duty for an episode or three...

In all seriousness, from what I've seen Picardo say about the Doctor's state of mind, I wonder if he abandoned any name(s) he'd chosen as he watched his loved ones grow old and die.

Joe The Doctor

I was expecting 50 minutes of them holding hands under a tree!

Okay, okay.

Suboptimal.

There may not be snow (snow by Halloween is neither unusual nor a given), but the temperatures should be comfortably around 0 - good enough to maintain the ice, and be comfortable for spectators.

That said, Winnipeg hit 16 degrees on October 25 this year, which is not ideal.

Xenophobic military propaganda?

Okay, I'll bite on this.

I'll grant that it's been a long time, but that seems like the opposite of the message of both that episode and the season as a whole...

I agree, but also this was a 2700 km trip, as the crow flies.

On the Canadian side, it's still technically up in the air, but you've got your sure-thing players like Sidney Crosby and Connor McDavid.

But there are a lot of players who would love a spot - it's a once-or-twice in a lifetime opportunity, so it's a bit of a subplot around the league as players are hoping to impress their respective Olympic Committees.

It's worth noting that it's an Olympic year, which is always a nationalistic good time.
