      @Ghostsof1915 I still refuse to buy Lays.  I'll never eat Subway again.  @#$& any company who considers that worthless piece of garbage fit to represent their brand.

      Subway, Lays chips, and Messier can all go "love" themselves, in terrible physical ways.

      I'd be down to find a new venue with the rest of the regs off site or use the Clubs feature if @-SN- is ok with that.

      @Coconuts Exactly much rather draft in the top 7 a coule good classes coming up in 2023 and 2024. Trade JT Miller even though he is a great player and retool. 

       

      The age and construction is not in line to be a contender. They need to get younger, faster, more skilled and harder to play against.

    4. Coconuts

      Agreed on all counts, we're extremely unlikely to contend sooner than later

      From both of em, but I'd want Mac in a seven game series

      no doubt. McDiver doesn't have a physical or defensive side to his game, and Nate has got the job done.

      Nate has to be one of the fieriest  and most determined guys in the league, he works his tail off everywhere 

  10. Looking forward to the twins being first ballot hall of famers, possibly Luongo too

      I'll be genuinely surprised if they aren't first ballot players. How many Art Ross winners haven't gotten in? And the twin novelty, it's an easy choice. Olympic gold, world championship, Hart and a Ted Lindsay, their community awards. All-star teams, almost had a cup too. 

       

      I could see Luongo going in as both tbh, but he had his greatest success in Vancouver. 

    3. Brad Marchand

      Brad Marchand

      Literally every Art Ross Trophy winner that is eligible for the Hall of Fame is in, there's virtually no chance the Sedins don't make it at some point. The only Art Ross winner I could forsee never making it is Jamie Benn.


      The one thing I'm paranoid about is that they might induct Henrik but not Daniel this year for some stupid reason.

      I don't count shrimp by individual counts.  I count them by the number of the shrimp cocktail platters from Costco, or the number of seafood towers at Blue Water Cafe.  I would say, at least three full Costco trays...and at least four of those seafood towers at Blue Water Cafe.  More if you're sharing.  I'll see you guys at the Chelation Clinic getting all the heavy metals removed from my system.

  14. &^@# Malkin, I still haven't forgotten his dirty hit on Willie Mitchell.

      Ive never been that enamoured by Malkin.  Probably the same sort of thing w/ how other team’s fans view EP.  @Coconuts is the Malkin hate related to VAN proposals to go go after him? He’s in the Spezza contract category now if u ask me.

  16. I hope we make the playoffs next year so people stop building a mythology around the bubble performance 

    1. -AJ-

      -AJ-

      I've heard both perspectives. What's yours? That it was overrated due to the low level of competition or that it was a legitimate to nearly the conference finals?

    2. Coconuts

      Coconuts

      Nah, just that we were the world beaters some folks make that team out to have been. We only made the playoffs because of math, after Marky went down we were sliding and then the season halted.

       

      Minessota was well earned but we didn't outplay the Blues, had they played whatshisname instead of Binnington we'd have likely lost, Binnington was awful.

       

      Demko was the only reason that Knights series went all that long, he truly deserves any bubble praise he gets. But the rest of the team wasn't very impressive against the Knights.

       

      We weren't a great team, we just had a fun run. But because it's the closest thing we've had to success this last ten years people tend to look back on it through rose colored glasses.

  20. The Clone Wars animated series is the pinnacle of Star Wars media and I'm tired of pretending it's not.

      Empire Strikes Back is the pinnacle. The heroes go through the wringer. 

      Rogue One gets me the same way. That's one of the few times I choked up watching Star Wars. 

    3. Coconuts

      Coconuts

      To each their own and all that jazz, but to me it's The Clone Wars. If you've never watched it you should, Bad Batch too.

      But there's a good chance he's actually traded

       

      And yes, it's our emotional support thread

  22. With Benning gone I hope we see more of Linden. I know he's a father and he's busy with business ventures, but outside of the twins having their jerseys retired it's been forever since he's been an active presence for this club. 

     

    And as such a massive franchise icon that's sad to see. Hopefully the Aqua's are willing to mend that relationship and a new management group helps smooth things over. Even a once every so often appearance would be better than the almost nothing we've had. 

    1. King Heffy

      King Heffy

      I'd love to see him more but I also hope he is enjoying his family.  He owes the franchise nothing.  Put Gino in the ROH and invite him to that.

    2. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      One wrinkle is that Linden is also a developer. So the Aqua's are also developers. That might also be a point of contention, the non-Canuck business clash. Or potentially a conflict of interest.

  23. Marky, Tanev, Guddy, and Tofu wooooooo!
