on the cycle

Benning said the defence is fine.

For all the talent on this team this team is pathetic.

One of the best efforts of the season followed with the worst effort of the season.

Höglander and Garland (listed at 5'10" but says he's 5'9") are both 5'9" and are 2 of the grittiest guys on our team. Size doesn't mean tough. Stan Smyl proved that decades ago. I think size is important but not at the expense of speed, skill, and competency.

Anyone remember Ryan Stanton?

I always thought of Petey as more of a Datsyuk. The defensive ability, the dekes, the offensive creativity, and the skating edge work. He's also still young and he'll be more consistent as time goes on. Well you have to play a 2 way game if you want to win, the best offensive teams are also good defensively. It's hard to score when you're stuck in your own zone.

He's statistically identical to Eichel. Sample size! Give him some games to get readjusted, he was off with his wrist injury for a long time. He'll shake off the rust and be in peak form soon enough.

Definitely worth a flyer. More offensive upside than Dowling.

I know guys that know Juulsen, he's an Abbotsford guy. He's had a lot of injuries especially his face as he took a puck to the face twice. He definitely has more upside and potential than his injuries allow.

We lose Hughes for 1 game and we implode. Pathetic.

I feel like I'm having a stroke. Is this real?

Brutal game

Sustr is a big RHD and looks like he had a decent corsi relative to his career defensive zone starts. Could be a good depth guy, however in the last couple seasons he only played an average of 12 minutes so who knows if he's anymore useful than Schenn.

You cannot cause physical harm. I am for people freely expressing themselves in a peaceful manner. So no I do not agree with blocking infrastructure. There are many anti vaxxers not blocking or being violent and they should be allowed to express their opinions in peaceful protest. I have never and will never classify violence or blocking people from critical infrastructure as free speech. I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend your right to say it.

I'm not citing the garbage canadian charter. I'm citing the US first amendment as a model of absolute freedom of speech, I was advocating my ideals.

You aren't making any sense. If you have the vaccine (Like I do!) you are very protected against covid and in regards to children they are almost entirely unaffected (Thankfully!) Blocking an ER or any public service is not classified as freedom of speech and those people doing that should be removed. I wasn't saying that at all. However everyone should be able to peacefully protest and say the opinion even if they are incorrect. BTW as I've already said I am very pro vaccine. I have pre existing respiratory conditions so I was more than happy to get vaccinated.

Do you understand negative rights? You do not have a right to limit others speech just because you don't like what they say. The only caveat is you cannot call for violence against others.

Well you're suggesting we limit freedom of speech which is an authoritarian action. So I will continue to call out anyone who says that. I don't have to make you look bad, you're doing a good job making yourself look bad.

Those who choose safety over freedom deserve neither. I'm a free speech absolutist I'm a Libertarian I will not stand for authoritarianism I will not subject others to my will You do not embody these principles.

Isn't that an indictment of how poor our medical system is? Isn't this an indictment of how poor our health education is? People do not look after their health very well in this country, a very large percentage of people here are obese.

I don't know I don't think you're going to change their minds. I just hope that we vaccinate as much as possible. As of today 89.6% of eligible people in BC have had at least 1 dose, so I don't think we really need to vaccinate much more as we've already reached herd immunity awhile ago.

I tore a tendon because I didn't tap soon enough.

Well it is your human right to refuse medical treatment, this includes vaccines. Also there have been recent studies suggesting that natural immunity is upwards of 14x more effective than the immunity gained through vaccine. I still think you should get the vaccine but to suggest someone who has already had covid is a threat to others seems to be incorrect, especially if you're vaccinated. I you're still afraid of the unvaccinated I would suggest seeking mental health treatment.

If you have the vaccine you shouldn't be worried about unvaccinated people. Either you believe that the vaccine works or you don't.

Thanks. No I'm not a bully haha. I think anti vaxxers are maybe ill informed but I refuse to force my ideology onto others. A Libertarian if you will.
