189lb enforcers? Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I look forward to Edler's stick breaking and retreat combo after he smashes a shot of someone's pads. I look forward to the hardest shot and the speed tests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cramarossa Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I'm soooo salty I won't get to see Tryamkin in the hardest shot. Don't think I'll even watch, tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Gino will be there? So great to hear that....if I wasn't sick, I'd take the trip down based on that alone. Hope everyone has a great time...many fond memories of the Superskills from the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apollo Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Not sure why Sportsnet wouldn't broadcast this... They have naming rights on our arena too... Yet they can't play one game on sn Pacific or canucks? I hate Rogers. Rename it gm place please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
