  1. I was unequivocal; about 2-3 months ago about our chances of making the playoffs being essentially this. Go on a nice run only to come short at the end or flame out spectacularly in the last 10 games. Nothing we do from here on out will decide our fate. it's literally in the hands of 3 other teams. We can go 9-0 sure; but that 100% means nothing if the other teams involved don't flag and fall by the way side. So much had to go right just for us to be here and we lost some brutally important and winnable games that helped us be where we are. I still don't see it myself but i'll enjoy the ride over the next 2 weeks
  2. LA is so beat up right now that they're losing ground based on those injuries alone. Brown. Doughty. Athanaisiou, Edler, Anderson. All down. Durzi is questionable right now as well. Whether they're all day to day for real; like thee reports claim, or are going to be gone longer. Only Brown is expected back this week and every game played without Brown, Doughty, Ahtanaisious and Edler is a possible win for us. Dallas is also entirely within reach as well. We can go 7-2 with those two teams going .500 and we're in.
  3. Didn't think so chief hey, Miller hasn't won anything at all. Hansen has won on the world stage though So maybe, just maybe Hansen knows what he's talking about more than some people on a forum
  4. he has a whole show from that night! Not a dubstep fan most days but damn I did love the mashup
  5. Major solar storm right now.  For those outside of cloud cover, look to the north/northeast between 10:30 pm and 3:00 am for a helluva show.

  6. That stat was damning. -23 in the 1st period for scoring? Thats essentially saying you're possibly behind the ball in 1/4 games during the season to start a game. Love that 3rd period though!!!
  7. Remind us when you get drafted essentially as the last overall player in the 9th round of the NHL draft and manage multiple 20+ point seasons over a 13 season, 626 game, 256 point career about how never winning anything means you're not qualified to speak about something you lived and breathed every day for over a decade. Then after you're done; let us know how Hansen is wrong in his statement about cap term and AAV
  8. 0-6 on the PP is not getting you in to the playoffs. Same issue of predictability we saw towards the end of the Sedin era. So you need a body to shovel the rubber in because flash and razzle dazzle aren't netting you much GG Chiasson!!!
  9. Have been on and off but it's hard to follow due to information lock down
  10. Lone-R at the Kennedy Centre
  11. Don't forget everyone, the BC Liquor Stores small batch premium release happens in May. Much smaller than what happens in November, but also carries much more intriguing and harder to find brands and labels.
  12. Tell him to head to Dubh Glass or the Osoyoos distillery and have a sip
  13. I am unsure how to answer this as I am unsure of the context of traditional life. My main stay on this is that people should have the right to govern their own bodies. Period. This includes refusing vaccinations and being allowed to have abortions. I would 100% believe and suggest they also have the right to terminate their life as they see fit. There are so many reasons people might, from bleak futures, traumatic pasts, social, economic, mental and physical issues. All of them (within reason barring terminal or degenerative illness) are in fact treatable and all of them can in fact increase not only the quality of life of said person. But sometimes, these are salves only and a person can back slide and decide that even with a bump in quality of life, or seratonin. That it's just not worth it. I firmly believe that with 8 billion people on the planet. Numerous eco systems at risk of collapse, the general apathy of the world and society as a whole. Allowing people the right to bow out of this life is not only a right but an actual courtesy. I believe myself to be a centrist as I like to see and understand both arguments because life is never just black or white. In a just society in which we allow complete bodily autonomy the right to death should be as enshrined as the right to life, equality and the pursuit of happiness if not basic human rights/decency.
  14. BC is in fact rich. The issue is, how many people from across the nation and in the US/China and even Europe own vacation properties here. The Estimate in Osoyoos is 800 units that are lived in primarily only over the summer or via Air BnB listings. When or if there IS in fact an economic crash, primary homes will not be the ones sold to make up shortfalls. With so many people living less than pay cheque to pay cheque these interest rate bumps AND uncertainty in the market will also cause established investments some level of shock leading to less of a safety net. Make no mistake about it, the moment 800+ to 1500+ units in a region like the Southern Okanagan go up for sale in a month; you'll see wide spread issues in a hurry.
  15. And here comes the NAFTA and Canada/China trade FIPA challenges. It's to little to late after the interest hikes started, but I'm genuinely happy the NDP committed to this as promised once their deal with the libs was signed. Once it crashes, protecting Canadians and Canadian property/farms from foreign run ups will be essential
  16. Hoping to interview them for September
  17. Every single major to moderate oil/gas producer will be recording massive bank
  18. The market has pushed up pricing for a 50 bps hike to 81% from 72% on this. My savings might actually earn me something for the first time in forever!
  19. So....how's the inflation thread gonna look on the 12th and 20th
