Yeah, an earthquake just a week after the lunar eclipse... keep your eyes open for four horsemen.

Here in Comox we definitely felt it. Nothing major though, just swaying objects etc.

I like the whole tone of "Obviously I wasn't at fault for my words but 'Sorrrry.'" Despite the fact that the severity of the hit was immediately apparent.

That was my understanding... so why would Hughson move back to Sportsnet?

Am I missing something? I know CBC is no longer competing for sports rights but HNIC is supposed to continue for at least 4(?) more years. Was something else announced?

Lets just call this game...

I missed them, can you elaborate? Agreed.

Thanks Doc

Yes, barring the lottery changing the draft order.

Yeah... but if you watched it was clear that he said that because that is something he knows needs to be said. I think he's lookīng longer term.

Funny, I ended up with the opposite impression ("I believe in this core" etc. etc.) though I also get the impression nothing has been officially decided.

I do hope Naslund joins the new regime in some capacity though I'm also a little wary of simply handing out jobs to retired jerseys...

Perfect* conditions! Gary's on the phone right now trying to get them to move the men's hockey tournament outdoors. * That is, "perfect", if you think having an outdoor game in Los Angeles made any sense whatsoever

This reminds me of a funny story. I was on a ship where the Captain was a die hard Leafs fan and the Second Mate was an equally die hard Habs fan. As we passed a group of people waving on shore in the St. Lawrence the Captain ordered the Mate to sound a salute on the whistle and wave to the crowd. The Mate didn't know why but he shrugged his shoulders and followed the order. Turns out it was Richard Peddie and his family and we had a giant Leafs flag flying from our stern...

To be fair - they like to point out shortcomings at the best of times. This is their opportunity to legitimately point out how terrible the team is. They're about as content as your golden retriever rolling around in its own crap.
