  1. That must be a serious hang over!
  2. Not that I know of. But I'm going to start using it!!!!! How many times did Anders Nillson go for a sausage this year? Looks like he went for a sausage on the Mcdavid shootout goal!
  3. Here is part of the translation I got from that article: He got Malmö's marked goalkeeper Jonas Gunnarsson to go to buy sausage, when he placed the match 2-1
  4. Was just going to post this. Cant wait except its on Youtube RED.
  5. Has this been posted yet https://canucksarmy.com/2018/03/20/canucksarmy-2018-mid-term-prospect-ranking-15-jack-rathbone/ Based on this highlight video from a game back in November, Rathbone shows well against his peers and is an obvious stand-out. No. 5 in white, his skating ability an apparent strength of his. He’s quick and agile, and generally extremely smooth on his feet. He absolutely loves to get in on the offence, often moving down to the circles to take a shot. He also possesses solid hockey sense and quick decision-making skills which, together with his skating ability, can help him get out of trouble when taking an offensive gamble. It’s hard to predict how his defensive game will translate to the NCAA level, but his offensive abilities are certainly worth taking a flyer on in the late rounds of the draft. In the Canucks’ behind-the-scenes video at the 2017 NHL Draft, we got a brief glimpse of what the scouting staff, specifically John Weisbrod and Judd Brackett, think of Rathbone: Brackett, the Canucks’ Director of Amateur Scouting, actually has quite the history with Rathbone. Both are from the New England area, which means Brackett has been able to watch him play and develop throughout his career. For those hesitant about high school players, the familiarity should undoubtedly create some optimism that the Canucks may have found a diamond in the rough. Speaking of diamonds in the rough, I was driven by curiosity to uncover just how many players drafted out of high school went on to become regular NHL players. Let me preface this by noting that I went through each draft dating back to the year 2000. Considering the total amount of players drafted from high school, the statistics just aren’t in favour of the prospects. Nonetheless, a majority of the success stories didn’t just make the NHL, but they’ve also thrived in the NHL. Rathbone will attend Harvard next season and suit up in maroon and white. It’s difficult quantitativelyto project his potential, but he’s the first pure offensive defenseman that the Canucks have drafted since Jordan Subban. There’s no doubt that he’s a long-term project whose odds are stacked against him, but it’s exciting to think about his offensive potential and what he could potentially bring to the Canucks in the future.
  6. His main shooting technique seems unique to me. I know others do it but seems like his go to. Holding the puck on his stick behind him and waiting. It looks like he is either looking for his spot or waiting for the goalie to go down or move and then flings it up over the goalies shoulder or past him. Shows lots of patience before he unloads. Does anyone else notice that?
  7. nice video but unless I missed it, it needs more "Sick Moves"
  8. Are you talking about Ghost Recon Wildlands? I have been watching videos on the PvP add on called Ghost Wars. Looks good and I want to try it but you have to buy the base game plus the Ghost War expansion. Maybe if it all goes on sale. Also concerned with how many people are still playing? Have you tried the it??
  9. Elias walks into a bar and sits down on a bar stool. Bartender says "Longneck"? Elias says "What did you call me"? Bartender says " Do you want a Budweiser Longneck"?
  10. Was looking for standing waves in rivers and found a video of a river I tubed down in winter a few times looking for chrome slabs. Only found some old boots! Thought the first song was cool. Junip - In Every Direction
  11. Apollo, You change your name?
  12. My Friend Dahmer - 8/10 (rented from Google) Rock and Roll 70's High School hijinxs mixed with chilling early serial killer vibes. Based on a graphic novel done by a classmate of Jeffrey Dahmer. Not sure if the Dahmer fanclub existed but has some laughs and was very creepy. Lesson: Be extra nice to your nerdy teen classmates.
  13. There is definitely too much winging in gaming. There are only a few star cards that are a must so if someone wants to drop an extra $100 to unlock them then thats on them. It probably only takes a week or two to get the ones you need. Regular troops dont need any upgrades except maybe extra health cards or cards that help you get heroes before other players take them. The rest of the star cards dont really matter for regular troops. There are several cards that are a must for heroes as well and those are the ones that get your health back that was lost. I dont agree with having to use $10k to $15k of credits to unlock some of the heroes however. That did take a while and used up credits that I could otherwise spend on star card upgrades. I play a lot of battlefield but have not touched BF1 since battlefront 2 came out. Its a fun game with a lot of depth and free expansions.
  14. They removed the micro transactions for real money. Might make a return though in a different fashion.
  15. Addicted to Star Wars Battlefront 2. Except for over powered Palpatine and a few other annoying things its a fun game. Lots of depth and I actually like the slow progression (which I think they are changing). Makes you think about where you want to apply your in game currency on star cards to power up your classes.
  16. He apparently also adopted a puppy and named it Hotdog Horvat.
  17. A clause in his contract gave him $212,500 for making the team. For the weekend he made just under $550,000 plus a car. Brockstar Money.
  18. looks like Lind tied the game up with 30 secs left to send it to overtime. 1 goal so far tonight.
  19. Was thinking the exact same thing. Character and Team!
  20. He has not had the personal results in previous international play although I believe for one tourney (cant remember which one) they say he was playing well but was snake bitten a bit. He may be feeling the pressure to perform better and along with the smaller ice rink and level of competition this will be interesting to watch. On the flip side his team is stacked. If I remember Brock and Bo did not dominate so its all good if he does not shatter records.
  21. Dudes not going to have a boat hes going to have a yacht like this guy...
  22. For what it is worth I dont think Sikura played the last two games, and maybe more, and Gaudette continued his good numbers.
