I kinda feel that if a lake cannot freeze at ambient temperatures at any time of year in your locale, you really shouldn't get to have an NHL team.
That being said, congratulations Florida Panthers, on your Stanley Cup win. Again! 😁

The RFK Jr. version of health, where health creates health and healthy people don't get sick and the thing that keeps you healthy is /living the right way/ is very seductive to a lot of people. It also places the burden of illness back on the ill, which decreases the value of human life.
