  4. Maybe Rogers Arena can design a blackberry app that alerts fans when to throw hats.... Or cheer.

      Well, they are still useful for businesses. It's quite fitting, considering all the suits that sit in the lower bowl.

  5. Maybe Travis Green is a 'generational' coach :bigblush:

     

    But seriously he has been doing a great job this year.

      I love Nandos.  AND CH.

  8. Not even mad about the 10th, I think as long as JB doesn't trade up he's forced to listen to his scouts and analyze every player within that range as opposed to just picking Jack.  And sorry, Jack Hughes stats are not that great tbh, he finished 12th in scoring on a stacked team in a league that's lower than the CHL.  This is going to be the Pettersson scenario all over again, as in dropping is a blessing in disguise.

     

    Relax.

      I'm definitely on the "don't trade up" side of things. It is just too costly for what could be a real crapshoot. Get more bullets in the chamber... more draft picks instead of higher ones.

    3. JayCanuck10

      JayCanuck10

      @Down by the River Speaking of which, what factors make a team decide whether to trade up or down?

    4. Tre Mac

      Tre Mac

      I hope they don't trade up as well.

  9. Now that the smoke has cleared and the season is done dare I say I think Willie should be back next year.  No coach could've gotten this team into the playoffs this year, give him his final year and if there is no improvement in terms of points and special teams then don't renew his contract.

     

    I know my opinion is in the minority but this team is just entering rebuild mode and despite what most think Willie is a great teacher for our youth. 

     

    I have a feeling he'll be canned just to appease the masses.

      Ovi in Vegas.... you might hear his liver explode from here if he doesn't suffocate under the pile of escorts.

      canuktravella

         anyone thqt thinks ovi is washed up  has no clue this guys a stud  he scored 69 points this yr and 30 goals  no one in nhl scored 50 this yr  so its more like he scored 40. he has 200plus more goals than anyone else since he came into league. Yes hes a superstar and your not gonna score 50 every yr watch he light it up  next yr he should play 23-25mins a game not 17  coaches didnt utilize him properly this yr  some one should be feeding him onetimers on pp every game 

    4. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      It's not that he's washed up. The reality is unless he trains like Jagr in the off season age catches up with us all. 

      To give up youth and a boatload of prospects can be done only by teams that have lots of depth.

      I just don't see any team making a deal that would work to get him.

      PETA is full of $&!# with activists not scientists. Cows may produce a lot of methane but thats only due to the diet they are put on. On a regular grass fed diet they don't produce nearly as much methane. Other animals and livestock also don't produce many chemicals that affect climate change. There does need to be a shift though in the livestock market in which animals are fed natural proper diets to prevent climate change and are treated more humanely. It would come at an extra cost to producers and consumers but would just lead to a trend in which people eat less meat. Which isn't a bad thing.

      Peta kills more animals than they save... Terrible orginization

      I've seen this bumper sticking in AB a few times: People Eating Tasty Animals.

       

      I agree with @RetroCanuck tho, the industry could do things better. 

  12. RIP Trade deadline day coverage.

  13. So all my freight is reliant on one flipping bridge that's out in Thunder Bay, whoever designed Canada dropped the ball on this one.

  14. So if Edm lands Laine will they have the new Crosby/Ovechkin duo on the same freaking team?

      the smart teams will do that... keep losing till they land elite talent... just look at the black hawks. They won the cup so many times now.. not proud of that but look at the results after the fact....the oilers will be winning cups soon as well.

    3. Wilbur

      ^I disagree.  If all the teams did that we would literally have 26 teams trying to tank this year.  

       

      It's also this mindset that is partially responsible for Edmonton's situation.  They have all these "elite talent saviours" and no team.  Did you see McClelland interview after Saturday's game?  He is at a loss for words.  It is not just defense and goaltending in Edmonton that is the problem.

       

      Smart teams don't lose until they land elite talent.  Smart teams continually try to add the pieces they need to build a winner.  Sure, that doesn't always mean being at the top of the standings, but tanking only guarantees one thing...losing games...a lot of them.

       

    4. SedinMadness

      SedinMadness

      ya i guess after losing so much like the blackhawks you can land a couple of elite talents then you can add pieces then you get better so i disagree with you wilbur! no one will trade elite talent before you have to give up the farm... so you can add a piece here and there, but to what??  you have to lose to win! didn't your parents teach you that... otherwise how else will you know to get back up again and again...listen i hate losing i want us to win...but when things are bad as this year is lose baby lose!

  15. So this is the furthest into the NHL sked. w/o having a Cdn. team in the playoffs since the 60's.  Guess that's why Bettman started his playoff beard early.

    I don't ever put my soul out on the line;

    When the witching hour comes I'll always fly away, fly away, fly away back home;

  20. When I was a kid(and a Hartford Whalers Fan) my mom came into my room yelling "They traded Trevor Linden to Hartford!".  I thought wow they traded my favorite player to my favorite team, she even turned on the tv to the news and waited 2min before letting me know "April Fools".  Well played. 

     

    May your pranks be believable, have a happy April Fools(yes I am aware it's tomorrow)

      Distant memory..but I think about 1980 some local radio announced a Larry Robinson for Marcel Dionne-swap.

       

      Funny at the time :^)

  21. Who do I turn to to have my pay statements audited?  Long story short I am in a union and ever since we got a new HR I've been receiving less on my Vacation payout despite moving up into higher pay bracket.  I asked the shop supervisor to contact the union but not receiving much response. 

     

    When I question management they give me the formula and the numbers check out but I think they're not properly adding my whole income for the year.

     

    Would H&R Block do it?  Certified Accountant?

      Thanks guys, this stuff is really complicated to me.  If it's gross pay before taxes than something aint right, and why would my wellness subsidy($500 gym membership) matter?  Not to mention they dinged me twice in one year for that.

      If the union isn't giving you the answers you want then file a grievance.

      the subsidy could be a taxable benefit Tre Mac

      Watts loves to play the 'you have to fear crime' card and will do nothing to help prevent the ongoing violence in Surrey. More police is not the answer.
