  1. Man, Tavares is just cursed apparently when it comes to playing for Canada.
  2. Heh, it was actually Philly and Pittsburgh.
  3. Like Gallagher there were times when I would agree and times when I would disagree but at the end of the day he made me think and, to me, that is what makes a successful writer. With a young family of my own, I can only imagine the pain the family is going through. I truly wish them the best through this toughest of times.
  4. Heh, not too worried. If he wins it, great, it’s an awesome honour. But losing it won’t change what Pettersson’s season meant to the Canucks last year
  5. I can't be the only one thinking "Shhh, don't jinx it"
  6. I remember the rejoicing going on when the Canucks sunk past the Jackets (I want to say on the last day). The refrain "Tank Mission Complete" was sung...that sure worked out well
  7. They'd be contenders if they could play Oakland every other series.
  8. I'm sure LaBamba was banned Shakeywalton, I fear the worst.
  9. Coverage of the two events have seemed the same to me. How can media cover something for two weeks when it has only been 2 days. Seems like "Fake News" to me. Also, being outraged about the use of "Easter Worshipers"? Seems like it is just taking away from the coverage of the real news which is that 290+ people died in a terrible attack.
  10. Was pretty grumpy today, so needed to go for a walk. With another populist, trumpian, conservative government taking power next door I just wanted to listen to this song but my iPod wouldn't play it. I think it's a sign.
  11. Good luck! A lot of that academic stuff can get rusty but it's not hard to become polished again.
  12. The key is the same mass of the sun (not size). That would be a relatively small black hole. Yes, a black hole like the one the picture was taken is estimated to be much denser/heavier than our sun and would surely pull in the Earth with it's gravitational pull.
  13. I just learned this today, but black holes supposedly don't suck things in. Their gravitational pull can pull things in, however,because they are so dense/heavy. For instance, if a black hole the same mass as the sun suddenly replaced the sun, the Earth would continue to orbit around the black hole as if it were the sun. It wouldn't get pulled in.
  14. It probably takes 30-40 minutes + half a glue stick for Bill Daly to put together those pretty cards and sort them in reverse order. My guess going 5-4-3-1-2 throws him off every time and Betman makes him start from the beginning if he gets it wrong.
  15. I'm still cool! I'm still cool! Aren't all the kids nowadays spending their Friday and Saturday nights playing around with statistical probabilities and spreadsheets?
  16. I think 9th was (48.8% from what I saw), 10th was 30.7% according to tankathon. Careful, you never know what can happen on draft day. I would've said something similar with Quinn Hughes last year before the draft. Although I'm done having kids, I'm still glad I didn't
  17. People would start talking about a "heavy ball" theory.
  18. Canuck luck at the draft lottery
