  1. We can hope but I can’t say I like the odds given our history.
  2. Canucks should have some decent choices at 4th or 5th overall when the draft hits.
  3. This has deep state, antigun, tofu, soy boy cabal frame job written all over it.
  4. No need to apologize at all. I do appreciate it though. I grew up with guys that use “buddy” as an insult so it does trigger me a bit and you probably didn’t mean it that way anyway so it should be i that apologizes. And I do agree with you on the skill I guess I am just overly worried that we don’t have too many guys with the ability or willingness to push back when it gets dirty out there and I think other teams know that and will try to rough him up a bit. I do hope I am wrong though. cheers!
  5. You are right; the love from the Eastern media is great if not very surprising and you are also correct about the way the game is played imo. That said, with respect to the bolded, I sure hope so (personally hate any suggestions of tanking on purpose) but am not holding my breath for this upcoming season. I think the following is when we really start making some moves in the standings.
  6. Agreed... I do not trust people very easily which is why i take the stance that despite what management says there will be players on the team that have been outplayed by younger players who are shipped down. Salary plays a big part despite what JB or Green or Aquaman say in public (just as an example: the optics of sending down LE and his 6M salary if he is really struggling in the preseason to make room for a rookie/younger player).
  7. Hard to say... Maybe the fans that have been through years of struggle would boycott but i dont think the average person that goes to nucks games would. Specially the ones you see in the lower bowl on their phones the entire game as they dont know wtf is going on aside form it being (or use to being) the place to be. I keep getting tagged because i think some think what i posted insinuates that I hope EP doesnt make the team which is totally incorrect. I mentioned the size issue because the Canucks are not really known for being physical or having any sort of pushback whatsoever so EP could easily be bullied by other teams out there and hopefully doenst land in a situation where his skill could not get him out of a bone crushing hit. You bring up a good point as well about the winning environment in Utica and helping with his confidence whereas i think its pretty much agreed that this year for Vancouver is going to be another struggle.
  8. One of if not the most talented player on the team now. That said, i think he needs to put on a bit of weight before he gets on full time. It may not be the popular decision but I wouldnt be surprised if he is sent down for this season, maybe playing the 9 games allowed.
  9. Goldy definitely made some strides over the off-season and looked better last night. I still see him being sent down though as despite what has been said i believe the vets can probably coast through the preseason with no worries on losing any spots.
  10. Absolutely and I think if anyone can keep him on track it is Belichick and the Pats organization
  11. Pretty frustrating to see as a Raiders fan that’s for sure... Been heartache since the Gannon years
  12. I think the main question is: Should the Raiders just forfeit the season after trading Mack?
  13. If you buy a house it is expensive. Real Estate for Real!
  14. climate accords, protecting future generations, saving for a rainy day etc etc.. F*&k it! You only get one life to live. Enjoy it, and live it up!!!
  15. Would be sad to see people lose work but if the CFL dies, it dies, no big loss imo.
  16. graduates of a certain defunct university perhaps ;P
  17. Well colour me surprised that the stupid government (dont care what party is in power - People will blame Trudeau and the liberals but the CPC would have done the same imo) screwed up the review process and will cost all of us even more money.....
  18. The big question will be: who on this board is going to be calling for his head if/when he goes through the sophomore slump?
  19. Agreed. I do believe there are many advanced life forms/civilizations throughout the Universe but that said Universe is so big that the chances of encountering advanced extra terrestrial life is incredibly slim.
  20. He would be excluded as well as im guessing he is not 'Quebecois de souche' either.....
  21. gonzo in favor of Gaunce who is a 200ft player
