at what point or coordinate does life get good

It's peaks and valleys. I LOVE the stage I'm at in life right now but also had a great time when I was younger. We did a lot of water skiing (and partying), so that was an incredible time in my life, but I wouldn't go back.
Life is what you make it...I truly believe that. There were struggles, but I found that focusing on the simple pleasures brought joy during the everyday grind.
Even adversity can have some "good" to it, as it shows us our strength and resilience.

I get not feeling aligned to anything in our current system, but I personally think it's always worth it to vote for whatever party/individual most closely agrees with your views, or is at least headed in a direction that gets closer to your wishes (even if it's not close at all).
In all fairness, no one is getting what they "want" here. It's just one big compromise.

@Alflives - huh; I've heard of spoiled ballots, but I didn't know what they were/what purpose they served. Thanks for the information--I appreciate it and will look into it more.
@Jimmy McGill - a lot of my values and views come out of my lived experiences. People are typically very critical of the way I think about politics--but very few of them, I think, can relate to the life I've had. I've been living in Canada my whole life but feel like a foreigner. People for whom the current government/parliamentary/judicial/etc structures work can never well comprehend that they don't work for some people.
@Ceres - you should know after that vigilante shot that I'm an all-or-nothing thinker. :p

seemed like a pretty harmless question to me, generally people ask questions when they need help understanding something or don't know what is going on. Merely asking the question indicts someone into already admitting being uneducated on the subject to a degree. Yeah you could have checked other threads, but you found your answer pretty quickly here right so no harm.

@Fateless my question was fine- not my fault people are reading stuff into it.

It looks like the Devils only got 3 good years out of Schneider. That trade is looking better every day.

has trading eriksson been considered?

@Squamfan Source for that? I have only heard that Loui vetoed a trade for Lucic. We were likely taking the extra year of Lucic at a lower cap hit than Eriksson's 6M, which I am glad we did not do.

I bought a vape yesterday in the AM--looking to quit smoking and save some money long-term. It's fun even though I feel like a jackass.

i know it's all about 'BPA,' but i'd be down if the canucks went after nothing but boom or bust defencemen next june.

I'm happy with Benning + co.'s drafting- not trying to nag on it. I just think the core is much more solidified up front and that we have more quality in the pipeline in terms of our forward prospects. Madden is very exciting- I think Podkozlin is going to be the perfect second-line winger for us with definite 1st-line potential - Hoglander has NHL potential..
I think Rathbone is going to be a very good defenceman, but otherwise the pool is somewhat lacking in strong talent on the defensive end imo. None of the guys you listed are ever going to be very dangerous talents; and while some here would disagree, I don't see much promise in Juolevi/Woo beyond in the best case as supporting casts.
Edler's getting older and should be transitioned into a lesser role over the next few years; Myers is going to be getting pretty up there by the time this group really gets rolling and should be expected somewhat to decline in the type of weight he can pull. Tanev is nice and I like him on the team, Stecher is fine in his role... but I see us really benefitting from some high-end D that's not limited to people named Quinn Hughes. It'd probably put us over the top with the front-end looking so much easier to manage over the coming years already.
like, if i were to get to choose 1 thing i could add to the canucks roster through the draft right now (with obvious exceptions aside, e.g lafreniere), it'd be a high-caliber defensive prospect. would you take a winger over a defenceman of equal value/ability considering our current roster and where it looks to be heading over the course of the next couple of years? i know there's no hindsight at the draft- just a fun question.

It would be amazing to draft our first ever NORRIS TROPHY(Best Defense Man) winner.
We are once again getting some fire power up front and another offensive puck moving .slick, fast defense man could really bring us closer to our first Stanley Cup.
Hughes and a crusher or horse( That guy looked upon to play the tough minutes and knocks opposing players on their fanny) on the back end that has some offensive ability sounds very pleasing to a long time Canuck Fan.Most Cup winners have had one or two ,so we are due,right.

Capital 6 in Victoria? As teens we'd wait at the exit doors for the 7:00 shows to finish and jam the door when people were leaving.
Catch a 9:00 movie, snacking on smuggled munchies from sev-0, high AF.

@NewbieCanuckFan The Capitol 6 is back, sort of. It's in dependant and they're replaced all the seats with recliners, but at least they are showing movies again.

@Dazzle - go back to my other status update and respond to my questions there if you want to engage, thanks. You obviously don't 'pity my ignorance' if you're not willing to help me out of it.
