      Fun fact, Jake played Tuna in blow

      Blow: Manhattan Beach, 1968 » BAMF Style

      He’s been the worst player in their camp, their fans can’t wait til he gets cut

      I really thought he would show up in shape and force the oilers to sign him.  Truly a waste of natural talent.  Enjoy filling bags at costco Jake.

  2. Taking a flight from Bellingham to somewhere else in the states, does anyone else know if any sort of test is required prior to departure?

      I'd check with the airline.  49 states have lifted their mask mandate, and the last time I checked was in December, I had to show proof of vaccination and fill out an online form.  I ended up not flying because I felt it was safe to stay home due to the variant and found out that some people who were joining the holidays were not vaccinated.

      No tests required for domestic travel within the US... 

       

      I just went from Seattle to LA and no testing was required and I believe that to be the case nationwide. 

       

      I believe you only need a test to enter the US or leave. 

  3. I know we don't like the Oilers, but do you think it's worth it to see McDavid play live? 

     

    I refuse to go to Oilers games when they're here, but now that Sid and Ovi are at the tail ends of their career(?) I'm glad I got out to watch them both 4-5 times each.

      I guess some people like McBaby. It is fun to see him get shut down I admit. Hang back, generate speed, rinse, repeat. I'd much rather see someone more physical and dynamic like Sid in his prime. I find McBaby to be a huge whiner, and that boarding he did was pure chicken $&!#.

      I know I'd regret not getting to watch Sid and Ovi play which is why I asked. I do like going to games to see other teams players which is why I don't really get out for Arizona too much unless it's really a steal. 

       

      Ya still on the fence about McDavid tho.

      If you have a chance to go you should take it as nothing compares to seeing someone live.
      I got to see Gretzky in his Edmonton days. I always hated him for treating the Canucks like his personal bi!ch so I didn’t appreciate it at the time. Now that he’s gone I’m glad that I got to watch him play. He was every bit the whiner that McBaby is but incredibly talented and hard-working.

  4. Do you care if the Canucks are good or bad? Or is it 2.5 hours of something to do 82 times a year?

      i cheer for the Canucks to win because I like to follow hockey. I just do not have the time or desire to follow other teams. I like playoff hockey so I want the Canucks to be there. However, if they win or lose it makes no difference to me or my life. That being said I am eager to watch the game when it is on.

      Horvat, Miller, and Pete's recovering to form.  I feel like 40 could take off after his tip-in last game.
      Though they won't always win due to current defensive deficiencies they'll also be fun to watch when the offense decides to show up.

  8. Is it necessary to have a dog in the cone of shame the entire recovery period after being fixed, or only If they’re being left unwatched?

    1. goalie13

      goalie13

      Really, it's only if they are licking the wound.  With my previous pup (my current one hasn't had the procedure yet) all I had to do is show him the cone and he stopped licking.

      Shhhh.....not so loud.  You might give ideas to Stealth Canuck!  Having members who were given an infraction being forced to wear that ‘cone of shame’ as penance.:lol:

      Sean Monahan

      My girl didn't have an issue with licking her stitches after the surgery. I just kept an eye on her at all times to make sure she didn't start licking. I think she only ended up wearing the cone for a total of like twenty minutes.

      Aside from Tyler Myers and Luongos cap recapture I believe all that crap needs to be off the books/team asap.. if this team is going to progress.

      Micheal Ferland - 3.5M -doesn't hurt us on LTIR 
      Roberto Luongo 3M -Not his fault
      Antoine Roussel - 3M -expensive but can play
      Jay Beagle - 3M -expensive for a 4th line center
      Jordie Benn - 2M -is not a bad contract for a vet bottom pairing dman
      Sven Baertschi 2.291M -not sure what happened we just gave up on him
      Ryan Spooner - 1.033M -didnt understand this one spooner sucked for a while

      they traded 3 years of gagne for 2 years of spooner. They would've bought out gagne and been on the hook for 2 more years. spooner was cheaper

      I don't even do that "we're out of the playoffs so let's cheer for the least putrid remaining Canadian-based team" that some partake in.

      The more logical interpretation is that this team should be contending for a cup by the time EP and the rest of the young core hit that age.

    3. c00kies

      c00kies

      A lot of those aged players are the ones the team developed though, so I see it as more of a growing pains and be patient statement than a go-all-in in free agency statement.

       we have a ton of cap if we ship sutter and tanev and hutton  out and let pouliot walk and  retain half of eriksson contract adds 16 mill in cap  thats 2-3 decent players 

  17. 1 more! At least this season was a lot more fun than the previous. Love playoff hockey coming soon, but look forward to the Canucks giving them an emotional component to me in a couple seasons.

  18. So excited for first round playoff hockey, best time of the year whether the Canucks are in or not

      For some reason, I'm almost never interested unless the Canucks are in it. I don't even always watch the finals, but I usually catch a bit of the finals, especially when a team's about to win the Cup. That said, I have a feeling I'll be more interested than usual this year with the Canucks rising closer to playoff-level. I think I'm just a little less salty than usual this year since we're improving.

    3. Zhukini

      Zhukini

      I'm kind of the opposite, I love watching games that matter 10 AM to 10 PM on a Saturday I set aside once the playoffs start. 

       

      I lose interest in the second and third rounds and even the finals depending on the teams. I dont think I watched more than 1 period in any of the LA - NJD series

      McCann with  Elias P could have been a cool combo going forward....

    4. Coconuts

      Coconuts

      McCann was how many years ago now? Who's to guarantee they'd be on the same squad? You seem awfully high on McCann but let's be real here, there's no guarantee he'd have turned into anything more here than he did in Florida. Hell, there's no guarantee he'll be anything long term in Pittsburgh either. Dude was drafted 24th overall, that he's played this much is already a success story all things considered but you make him out to be something more special than he's shown.

      Watch matchups involving top teams/players when I can, but don't go out of my way.  Also watch CHL, both live and on TV, and haven't missed a Team Canada game in the WJHC since the 1995 tournament.
