  1. What is this blasphemy? Pineapple does not belong on pizza. Ever.

      Pineapples are not native to Italy! They were never meant to be on a pizza!!!!! You're all crazy I tell ya

      Don't see a lot of pepperoni in Italy either, yet here it is.

      two of my favorite pizzas are butter chicken and bbq chicken

      neither is native to italy either

      so you must a an orthodox pizza traditionalist

      so just some dough and some nice tomato pizza sauce then, with a sprinkling of cheese ?   a bit bland for my taste overall

  2. Tkachuk over Svechnikov? Yeah...no...

      If we're picking 3-5 and Dahlin is gone I want no part of Boqvist.  I just do not see what everyone else sees in him.  If we're drafting a defenseman not named Dahlin i'd prefer Bouchard over Boqvist but if we're 3-5 you have to pick the BPA and that is one of Zadina/Tkachuk/Svechnikov but our needs are still greater on the LW and center than they are RW

       

      And as I see not a whole ton of difference between Zadina and Svechnikov I have to weigh it between Zadina and Tkachuk 

       

      My opinions only

      I understand, I'm just fed up with having $&!# defence, and drafting only one 1st round D prospect in forever won't change that. 

  3. MacKinnon out 2-4 weeks RIP Avalanche playoff hopes.

      They're done for if MacKinnon is out. He was carrying them so hard.

      This will be a good opportunity to learn.. He got caught up running around after guys, and finally someone (Edler) wised up to his antics and protected himself, and Mckinnon took the worst of it.

      This Mackinnon injury is why big men like Edler are good to have.  They take hits, and injure guys doing so.  

      Really like the turn Mackinnon took this year.  He was exceptionally good after the Avs big fight a while back, where he pounded some guy.  

  4. I bought it off G2A for $22. Still don't quite have the hang of it yet...

      Add to that his salary of $925,000, he's made a total of $1,780,000 + a Car, + any other bonuses he might get (40 Goals? Calder Winner?) Kid could clear $2 million without breaking a sweat, as a rookie!

      Brock is going to be PAID when his ELC is over, like close to Kane/Toews/McDavid money. Feels good to have one of the best players in the league.

      Apparently Schedule A bonuses top out at $850K total.  http://theprovince.com/sports/hockey/nhl/vancouver-canucks/oh-boeser-canucks-rookie-plays-all-starring-role-at-nhl-showcase

       

      Totally agree on the last bit.  It would be nice if he signed for Draisaitl money though.

      Also, how much is Brock's agent licking his chops right now?

  6. Pedestrian hit right outside my house. Pure pandemonium for the last 30 minutes... Only connector to highway closed...complete standstill.

      WTF is going on? AM730 said there were 5 pedestrians hit this morning alone. Slow down, be alert. Cyclists, Pedestrians, Motorcyclists, make sure you were something that makes you seen. Assume you can't be seen and be careful. Motorists do the same.  

       

      Share the road folks.

      My wife got caught up in that traffic on the way home.

      There is a pedestrian overpass right there and it was dark and very rainy. People should just use it to avoid these incidents.

  7. Too bad the minus button is gone. Kids these days ruin everything.

  8. Hutton + Boucher for Duclair

     

    Think Arizona would do it?

      Gudbranson would walk at season's end. They wouldn't be interested. Also I think Hutton would be an upgrade over Connauton... Connauton and Schenn are both UFAs at the end of the year as well. I'd assume Hutton would be a future part of their roster. So I think Hutton makes more sense.

    3. Ghostsof1915

      Considering at one point he had 44 points, and is only 22 years old. I doubt they'd take our scraps for him.

      Hutton isn't scraps :lol:

      Isn’t donating what “Boxing Day” is for?

      They're headphones. Not very expensive, maybe a couple hundred dollars, but I already have a really nice pair that I love... So I really have no use for them. I decided to keep them for now.

       

      @debluvscanucks I live on the island, maybe I should look for something like that? Maybe I will just sell them and give the cash to charity.

  10. My buddy highly recommended this game. I was thinking of picking it up since it's on sale on Steam. Maybe lemme know what you think?
  11. RPGs and singleplayer games like fallout, elder scrolls, mass effect. Or games like mafia/GTA/Saints row. @MikeyBoy44 is almost old enough to be my dad. Of course he's salty. I've always been a console guy, maybe he's mad I defected .
  12. Just picked up a new PC. Any suggestions for games? Also got VR so some good VR game suggestions would be appreciated too
  13. Anybody playing Fortnight Battle Royale?
  14. Nikita Zaitsev experiment has worked so far so hopefully we see Tryamkin in the future. The KHL is still a good league and to be named defenseman of the month twice is intriguing.
  15. My bad, I thought he was 20. So he will be 26? Still fairly young.
  16. Untrue. He liked Vancouver. What he hated was being benched for the last 8 minutes of a game. He said playing in his homeland was very appealing (even Pavel Datsyuk admitted this). He has committed the next 3 seasons to his KHL club, and when asked if he would return to Vancouver after he said "Let’s see how I’ll play by that time. If I need it, and we’ll get along under some conditions – everything can be. But this is still far away" He will be 22/23 by then, still very young. I wouldn't rule out him coming back to NHL once he has proven himself.
  17. Is there any way to view recently created topics instead of the new version of recent topics?

      Agreed. Thought there was a new report of Tallons interest in Guddy.

      Agree that 'recently created' is of greater interest to me, it's probably just a setting that they're fiddling around with.

      @Stelar I did the exact same lol

  18. Moira announced at BlizzCon. She looks like a symmetra/zenyatta hybrid. Will be interesting to see how she effects the game
  19. I don't really see it that much tbh, what rank were you?
  20. I like that one too, but I feel the skins this event are kinda meh. Also what do I have to do to get a zarya or tracer Halloween skin? Ugh.
  21. Currently have 1 team open in my fantasy keeper league. PM me if you are interested.
