  1. Caps gave up Vrana and a 1st to get Mantha only to get eliminated in the 1st round.  That makes me super happy!!   :lol:

      Ahh right forgot about that one! Brutal. They eventually won a cup, hard to knock that. But when you look at some of the individual moves yikes.

      Even in early 2010s before holtby they couldn't find a goalie. they dumbed varlamov and grubauer and this other czech goalie that had a decent nhl career

      I didn't know Ovie was wanting that much.  There's definitely a balance between wanting to get paid while also having cap room for solid surrounding players.  

  2. Anson Carter... Made millions and cried that racism played a factor in his contract negotiations while still making millions.  Now he's playing the victim while praising Dumba's antics as honorable when it's clear he's just looking for attention, supporting and openly Marxist rooted movement veiled as "social justice".  Disgusting.

      i dunno why it matters how much you earn when it comes to racism, but maybe i'm just too european to understand the U.S. situation

  3. Could any of you friendly folk from the north explain to this yank why Edmonton is such a bad city?  I am just curious because I never knew it was looked at as "the arse hole of Canada".

      I grew up in Edmonton, until last year. I can think of a few reasons:

       

      Edmonton is cold ALL THE TIME. The winters in Edmonton are brutal.

       

      Edmonton is very ugly, sure it has some nice spots, like the parliament building and the river valley, but that's about it.

       

      The city was planned really poor, don't even get me started on public transportation or the LRT.

       

      Edmonton is one giant ghetto, save for a few spots south side and downtown. 

       

      Edmonton is full of natives who are trashy and think they're all gangster. Especially north side. No job, just 6 kids and welfare. (I am half native so relax before I get called racist).

       

      The people in Edmonton dress like they picked their clothes out of a dumpster. Literally. 

       

      There's literally nothing to do, except for West Edmonton mall, which used to be fun, but is now a giant commercial tourist trap. 

       

      I'll try to think of more.

      Damn!  I see.  Thanks for responding.  From what you're saying I have a better understanding of why a lot of people on here feel the way they do about it.
