      nice, thats a neat spot. 

  8. Canucks can use a player like Dylan Guenther

    1. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      The Canucks need defenders like Dahlin and Power. 

    2. Dazzle

      @BoKnows Dylan wouldn't have changed anything. We have too many forwards, and not enough emphasis on bolstering the defense.

    3. Brad Marchand

      They could use the cap flexibility, too.

  9. Got tickets for Canucks at Toronto, first time seeing the boys play live.

      Lager and Ale - great, rockin' song. In fact, I think I'm going to listen to that right now.

      Figure Ol' Kimbo went to the school of Bob Seger(minus the epic, gravelly vocals..do like KM's delivery too, tho). These guys alternate fun, rockin' tunes with story songs, drippin' with sweet nostalgia.

  11. To MBA or to not MBA

      Might depend on what your specialty is in business. As an accountant or finance expert it might make more sense to get a CPA or CFA, but if you're more general in business, an MBA could be good to elevate you to executive management if that's what you're looking for.

       

      I'm not super keen on getting an MBA, but I might eventually get one to open the door to teaching at a university some day, which I want to do.

      Do it.  As much as you might love the company your with now, that may not be the case five, ten, fifteen years from now. An MBA opens up all kinds of doors.  Even an Executive MBA (Queen's, Western, U of T, UBC, or even a place like Royal Roads in Victoria) will serve you well.  If you can have your current employer pay for it or a part of it, even better. But do it. You might be CEO of your company one day with it.  Without it, possible, but not as likely. Good luck.

      If Chuck Berry was still alive he’d say that Beethoven would be rolling in his grave if he heard that opinion.:P

      I like James Horner's work more, but I'd never compare either

      of them to the greatest orchestral composer ever.

  19. Can the Canucks pull of a 2019 Blues run

      Wow, what a run that was indeed. 

       

      How was the 2019 St. Louis roster compared to this year’s Canuck roster? Did they have a deeper roster than we do? 

       

      15-18 isn’t as bad as where the Canucks were 12 days ago, when they were what? 7 or 8 games below .500?

       

    3. Rubik

      Rubik

      i guess they were much more physical, i'm not sure about the talent.

    4. N4ZZY

      N4ZZY

      If talent wise they’re better, than I can see how they went all the way with all of their runs and momentum’s and wins leading into the postseason. Can we do the same? I’m not sure. Those kinds of runs don’t happen too often do they? 

       

      If it’s the physicality, then I’m not sure about that either since I don’t think the Canucks are that physical of a team. 

  20. Anyone else remember the Luongo game that used to be on this site?

  21. They need a vaccine for headaches

      I suffer from terrible migraines and I fully agree!

       

      I am getting my eyes checked and seeing if there is any Migraine proof lenses.

      I've had headaches for about a week now. I usually have almost none. I'm thinking it may be finally time to get some wisdom teeth out and hope that's the problem.

      Hmm.. 

       

      As a chronic headache suffer I have three things that have worked.. 

       

      1) Toradol medicine for serious headaches 

      2) Zomig nasal spray or pill (triptan medicine) 

      3) Head band (compression bands) tightened on the head.

       

      Ask your GP for some of these meds. 

       

      They work way better than Tylenol or Advil. 

  22. Why is October the 10th month and not the 8th…

      Originally, or at least previously, the Roman calendar started in March, and at some point the Roman Senate changed it to where January was/is the first month. I believe it was changed to somehow avoid interfering with some religious ceremony or ceremonies.

      The Lock

      Makes sense actually that it would have originally been the 8th month. Sept wouild be 7. Nov would be 9. Dec would be 10.

       

      The intention for it to be the 8th month was definately there.

      July named for Julius Caesar; August for Augustus Caesar. Don't know what those months were called before that. Julius Caesar was born July 12, so maybe that's why.

  23. Montreal Rays

      I heard that too.  Pretty cool.  Going to be called the X-Rays, and split Their home games between the two cities.

      Average of 9,370 fans per game.

      Geez Vancouver could do better than that.
