  1. This just in from TSN. "Is Jake Muzzin is the last piece needed for a cup run?" I haven't actually watched or listened, I just know it's being said repeatedly.
  2. 'Mom, I'm in trouble': Grande Prairie woman faces decade in Thai prison https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/thailand-graffiti-brittney-schneider-1.4870376 Not an event, but not worthy of a thread either. I don't have much sympathy for someone going to a foreign country and spray painting an ancient wall, but hey, I've done some dumb things in my life too....just not this astronomically blatantly stupid. Let this be a lesson to Canadians travelling abroad, don't be an idiot. Hopefully she just gets the fine and a one way ticket and lifetime ban.
  3. Two burnt bridge comments, but I dare say he wasn't here long enough to burn a bridge. I think he needed (perhaps still needs) some time to mature. The fans loved him here, so why wouldn't he come back? I agree that if he indeed doesn't like the town, we can trade him somewhere he wants to go. He will be even more valuable in a year or two if he continues his progression. I can't see him hating the team because of the treatment he received, it wasn't that atrocious under the circumstances, and I really hope he comes back here and has a career as a Canuck.
  4. I never disliked or crapped on Dorsett, but I've never really give him any credit either. He deserves some credit from me, It's not just the scoring start to the season, he's really working out there, and that attitude is what we need for a quicker turnaround with our rebuild. We've had a lot of mid-level talent in the past 4 seasons and I lumped Dorsett in that group. I didn't really give him much consideration, he was a role player who's talent could be replaced by any number of the Kenins' Cracknells of the league. I think I was missing his intangibles. He can score in the right situations, and he's a perfect energy role guy. I'm glad he's here for this incarnation of the Canucks.
  5. So it's Shaka, when the walls fell. I'll end up watching it at some point I'm sure.
  6. Damn. I didn't want to hear this, just recently "acquired" the first 3 episodes and haven't watched them yet. Not sure I'm a Trekkie, but I've seen all episodes of the original, all of TNG (like 10 times over) and most of the others...and all the movies new and old. So, don't bother with Discovery?
  7. I want to be your dog as posted above ...and ...and
  8. Indeed. It's a smaller time-frame than I remembered. I forgot about 2015. I suppose I was getting at that I think we are in the best position for success since the lockout....even if it's only been 2 seasons out of the playoffs.
  9. I don't think we tanked at all, I think there was some poor choices that didn't pan out. The Torts hire was legit, and it could have gone better if we had a deeper roster. He may have made some poor choices himself, but he didn't have much to work with. I think we are now closer to the playoffs than we have been since the lockout.
  10. I just had a turkey sandwich on toasted pumpernickel bread. I'm down to only dark meat, but I still had some stuffing, gravy and cranberry sauce, so it all went in the sandwich. I did add mayo to both sides of the bread to make it extra zesty. On the side were the leftover peas and carrots. I would have had potatoes, but I fried them up as hash browns yesterday with breakfast.
  11. Why doesn't Sutter have to earn it? They have similar "bests" in points. Myself, I would stop short of firing Willie, but I would have him on a short leash. Bo should have every opportunity to be 2C...the exact same opportunity as Sutter...who has done nothing in my view to show he is a 2C himself. From Willie's comments at the end of last season, Bo will be pigeonholed in a defensive role.
  12. I'm glad to have found this thread. There isn't one clear best bassist in my opinion. Anthony Jackson is right at the top with Carol Kaye and Joe Osborn just behind....and Flea. Flea will be a legend in time...in time I like Chris Wolstenholme and John Myung for contemporary bassists.
  13. It doesn't take rocket appliances to know that.
  14. Parents who bring huge strollers and loud annoying kids into small sushi restaurants.
  15. I just heard Sven on 1040 from the "jail cell". I am so impressed with him, I really hope he builds on last season. Reasonable expectations? I say 18G 25A 43Points. Could be more if he gets a regular 2nd line role.
