    Sure, but how does what you’re talking about apply to this particular situation, which was clearly a rec game for fun?

    Ignoring Biological Reality Puts Female Hockey Players at Risk

    Lot of opinions on this, it's an ongoing debate through sports as a whole. It's not as cut and dry as some folks would like to make it out to be imo. It's a very loaded thing even before throwing hockey into the picture. Biological sex, the spectrum of gender, gender identity, safety, ethics, equity and equality, there's a lot to unpack. 

     

    Very cut and dry IMO.

     

    If you were born a male, then you produce more testosterone than somebody born a female, which contributes to muscle mass and performance improvement. An average man has a bigger structure, more muscle mass and basically far more physical strength than an average woman, any given day.

     

    If you were born a man then you should not be able to participate in a women's sporting event, especially at higher levels.

     

    Example: Gavin, I mean Laurel Hubbard, is 6-foot-1, 287 pounds female that transitioned from being a man. He set national records in junior competition (under 20). She ignited protests of unfairness after winning two gold medals and a silver medal in the 2019 Pacific Games while being the oldest woman in the Olympic competition, at 43.

    I will go with 

     

    Jonathan lekkerimäki and Rutger McGroarty

    Rutger has been removed as a pick and if Squeak wants him he can have him. That being said knowing the caliber of a person Squeak is he will avoid that option so once Squeak picks it will be Time Lord.

    Player Swaps - In case you choose a player and they are cut from the team or injured prior to Sunday December 22nd at 7:59 AM PST, GM's may re-select players based on the draft position of the player they lost. This is not a first come first serve re-draft.
