  1. Except on April 18 when the Canucks are in the Central time zone playing the Jets (Winnipeg).
  2. The Kings do as well. The Ducks just started their own streaming today. https://www.nhl.com/ducks/news/ducks-set-to-launch-audio-streaming-network-today-ducks-stream/c-335691750
  3. The Canucks are on TNT twice during the season, once against the Flames and Ducks. https://wbd.com/nhl-on-tnt-to-featur...nesday-oct-12/ It does not look like the Canucks are on ESPN this season. https://espnpressroom.com/us/press-r...ng-october-11/
  4. Dave Hodge did indeed do PBP calling. He called the Buffalo Sabres on radio for that team's first season. Then 20 about years later, he was PBP for the Minnesota North Stars TV games. Hodge also called CFL games for the Argonauts in the 70s and other CFL games in the late 80s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Hodge
  5. Game 5 of the 1994 Canucks-Rangers Series, such a clutch win on the road in MSG!
  6. Great idea with the Flyers. The same could be done with the 1975 Flyers who repeated as Stanley Cup champs.
  7. I understand wanting to look back at 1994, but, 1982? Really? They were swept.
  8. Could you do one for 1994? 26 years ago in a parallel universe far away Canucks beat Rangers to hoist first Stanley Cup in 23 years.
  9. You're right Lazurus, the worst case basically happened, the Jets won and passed the Canucks. At least it was a regulation win. The Knights-Oilers was the bad result because it was an OT game.
  10. The Blackhawks loss also helps the Canucks as they stay 6 points back of them. The Wild beating the Ducks is bad news for the Canucks because Minnesota passes the Canucks in the conference standings. The Wild are now in 7th place with the Canucks falling to 8th place. Vancouver is in a 3 way tie for the last playoff spot with Nashville and Winnipeg. The Canucks are ahead because they have 1 more ROW than Nashville and the Jets have played 1 more game than the Canucks and Predators. It is very tight in the west, 6th to 11th place is a 5 point difference.
  11. Totally agree that LRT sucks. Very unappealing way to get new users. Waste of money.
  12. The Evergreen line should be a loop which would include a southeastern route meeting at Coq central station.
  13. Don't forget to four lane highway 99 to Pemberton.
  14. SeaBus Frequency *Feb.8 to Feb.28, 2010 Olympic Days Departing Waterfront 6:01am to 10:01am 15 mins 10:01am to 12:31am 10 mins 12:31am to 1:16am 15 mins 1:16am to 2:16am 30 mins Departing Lonsdale Quay 6:02am to 9:47am 15 mins 9:47am to 12:17am 10 mins 12:17am to 1:32am 15 mins 1:32am to 2:02am 30 mins Departing Waterfront Monday to Sunday 6:01am / 2:16am Departing Lonsdale Quay 6:02am / 2:02am http://tripplanning.translink.ca/hiwire?.a=iScheduleLookupSearch&LineName=998&LineAbbr=998
  15. Studies have shown that a fair percentage of people who took transit during major city events end up driving their cars more often. Translink is admitting that lineups at stations to get on and off will be very time consuming. Delays and congestion like this are major reasons why people give up on public transit. The Millenium line will be getting massive surges in ridership as Renfrew and Rupert Stations will be the key stops for events at the Pacific Coliseum.
  16. The Skytrain bridge is why there are hardly any buses on the Pattullo. Why translink can't put buses on the Port Mann bridge temporarily during this Pattullo fiasco is total stupidity and ignorant. Some of these translink officials, managers should wake up and get a dose of reality as they really have no clue when there are zero buses on the Port Mann.
  17. It is an absolute gong show out there no matter what mode of normal transportation one takes. With the massive increase in bus passengers, buses are running late and leaving passengers behind at bus stops. Chartering a helicopter would be the fastest way to get across the Fraser River. I know every little bit helps but seriously what are four more additional trains shuttling between Scott Road and Waterfront stations to ease the pressure during rush hourtrains going to do? Basically nothing considering those trains should be commencing and terminating at King George Station. The lack of any quick response plan shows the public that if something similar like this happens during the Olympics, we're screwed. For starters, the N19 should be going 24 hours until this mess is fixed. This 4:30 am start for Skytrain is ridiculous because it is only 38 minutes earlier than normal and there are no buses starting earlier to get people to the Surrey area stations for the earlier trains. Start the trains at 3:45 with area buses even earlier and translink better work out a deal to get some more parking around Skytrain stations. On the news, the Massey tunnel's counterflow lane is to start at 5:00 am and that too should start earlier like 4:00 and go until 10:00. Then for the evening commute, begin it at 2:30 and go until 8:00 pm.
