  1. Poor Jake. He was just following the John Belushi Breakfast of Champions diet plan.
  2. One of my favourite Canucks masks of all time is Corey Hirsch’s....
  3. Deb, you started this thread 10 1/2 years ago. And now this thread could experience an explosion of activity. And it should. We are witnessing Canadian Sports History. BA’s never give up, never say die attitude, is truly captivating and infectious.
  4. I don’t do podcasts, so that was an automatic no. On the other hand, Pratt has never bothered me. I just don’t take him seriously and I rather enjoy listening to all the people who do take him seriously get all hot under the collar. He likes throwing a bunch of crap at the wall and seeing if any of it sticks. I’ve taken colourful jabs at him on Twitter and he always takes it in good humour. Hopefully everything works out for the best for him.
  5. Kyp gone... no big loss. Couldn’t speak intelligently about the west. Doug Mc gone..... was good in beginning, now only talks about PEI, Florida, the Sens and the Leafs. Couldn’t speak intelligently about the West. Darren Millard gone.... Became a pompous tool, who knew about Toronto and Saskatchewan and not much else. Not sure who the replacements will be, but they probably won’t be much better. And as hard as it is to imagine, they still could be worse.
  6. There are a lot of things on that list, that I’m excited for. But for me, I am still most excited to watch the continued development of the Canucks prospects at all levels. But mostly in the A and with the big club. If everyone can stay away from any long term injuries, then this season could be real fun to watch.
  7. How can you listen to that garbage. There isn’t an intelligent sports mind in Calgary radio or tv.
  8. I hope they didn’t give him a NMC. Congrats Jim. Keep the good things going and the oops to a minimum
  9. I’m not sure where he projects to go, but if he is a second rounder, then...... After watching a few of the HGT games, I have been impressed with the skill set of Jérémie Poirier. I’d be pretty happy if the Canucks were able to draft him.
  10. Good move for the Canucks, Chris has an outstanding work ethic. Even Will Smith is Getting Higgie With It...
  11. I’m on board with the optimistic approach to the next season.... But maybe instead of discarding the tank completely, we can just shrink it for now.....
  12. The only home game I’ve been to was in 1982 Vancouver beat Calgary(can’t remember the score, it’s been awhile) Ive been to 6 away games. 2 losses in Edmonton, 2 losses in Arizona and 2 Wins in Calgary. Excellent Home Record 1-0 Away Jinx 2-4
  13. Just going to try to ease the tension on this thread..... Deep Breaths....... And.......
  14. What if JB is signing Fer because he is including Jake as the add on to get Louie out? Louie + Jake, to mystery team. For X I hope not. But .........
  15. Nope. Wrong again. Nice try though. I wasn’t throwing Aqua under the bus. Just throw an idea out there. Nothing wrong with that. Never said it was fact. Never said it was rumour. Just thought it could be a possibility. You don’t think so. That’s fine. Next time come up with your point of view that doesn’t attach someone else. You can argue to an opposite opinion with out attitude. Next time try something like.... I don’t believe Aqua Man would do that. He’s always been generous in the past. I believe he would give Jim full ability to spend money to gain assets. That would be more constructive. Good Luck, moving forward.
  16. You can read right?? might want to re read my post. Never said I got this from anywhere. I was just postulating a possibility. Perhaps in this case Aqua Man just said No, to spending his money this way. Just relax and read things more carefully next time.
  17. I wonder if Aqua Man has told Jim that he is not stroking a cheque for a body that will not play, just for extra picks. Jim might not have the ok to just add expensive dead weight. Aqua Man doesn’t come across as the type to sign cheque’s with a rubber stamp...
  18. Good Job Montreal. Bring a 12 year old girl who is bigger than the player you draft up on the stage.
  19. There is no way you can sugar coat crap news like this. Just prey it’s not true....
