  1. I'm not watching or listening but HOW DID THAT NOT GO IN!? Edit: well that was some unfortunate timing with my lame attempt at humor. Edit 2: or not? I don't know what's going on lol.
  2. Yeah honest mistake man. It's the dog days of summer, people are getting a little cranky around these parts!
  3. I’d love to be a fly on the wall at Canucks front office today.
  4. I'm predicting that through an unprecedented combination of injuries, bad luck, lack of chemistry and coaching issues that the Flames will have a rotten season next year. On the very off chance that I'm right, I'm going to really enjoy re-visiting this post next year
  5. Well poop. Calgary could be better than last year. DIdn't see this coming after what looked like a disaster of an off-season for them.
  6. I think I'd take less money to not play in Arizona too. Knowing that your team will be playing in a 4000 seat college rink is downright embarrassing.
  7. I don't believe this is a done deal until I see an E5 from Eklund.
  8. I’m bored. Is anyone else bored? This thread could really use a trade or signing. Enough rumours, I want some action!
  9. Haha, I used to be this optimistic every season too! But I’ve been beaten down by decades of failure! I sure hope you’re right! I do think this forward group with the Russians firing on all cylinders could make some real noise, but I’ll be pleasantly surprised if that happens.
  10. You’re right, I don’t think the team itself is a mess. They will probably be a playoff bubble team, mid pack in the league. It’s the fact that they are up against the cap with little chance to get better quickly that’s a mess. If everyone has a career year next season and the new Russians play out of their minds it could be a fun season to watch and they could make the playoffs but ultimately I think they will fall short of real post season success for the next year or two.
  11. Given the mess they inherited, even the best management team is going to need time to fix things. I’m on the fence if we can make the playoffs next year and won’t be surprised if we don’t. Rutherford and crew seem to be taking a very patient approach that hopefully pays off big time in a year or two, but may be hard to sit through next season.
  12. This means Miller is going to re-sign at a reasonable cost now, right?
  13. I’m not sure this is a “plan” but I like it!
  14. I would honestly pay good money to watch JT Miller play a game for Fribourg-Gotteron!
  15. Jalapeno is my favourite, but... I polished that bag off a couple days ago. Without hockey, I have nothing better to do than eat chips and drink beer.
  16. I just polished off a bag of Miss Vickie's Salt and Vinegar chips so this thread hitting 1000 pages is no longer the highlight of my day. Now can we get a trade? Like, anyone? I need new reading material and something to get excited/mad about. Training camp can't come soon enough! I miss hockey.
  17. Everyone who made it on to page 1000 should get free season's tickets.Just sayin', it'd be great PR!
  18. Sadly, this is the highlight of my day so far And... I just barely snuck on to page 1000, I was sure I'd be 1001. This day just keeps getting better!
