Face sure. Wanting him to win over a new American market with its success from their stupid expansion draft rules...doubtful. The owners and Bettman want more teams. They make huge money off expansion.

I have a degree in hotel management and worked in them from age 16 to being a GM of one at age 38. Worked in a 3, 4 and briefly a 5 diamond hotel. There is a massive difference in a 3, a 4 and a 5 rated hotel. I know because I had the damn binders full of what was needed to upgrade and oversaw moving a 3 to a 4 hotel.. Now I agree that most non slum places a fine. Unless I had a hook up I wasn't booking the Wall Center or Four Seasons etc. That was a joke about the mediocrity of the Sandman brand. Honestly their newer ones are fine. Older ones are worn out with bad beds. A 4 star or 5 star has a mattress quality rating they need to hit and thread count etc. My suite recently at a 4.5 had a Nespresso in each room with real cream. Now am I happy staying at the Sandman oin Georgia when down for a game or concert? Yes, I do it all the time. But I wasn't there for the quality and the extra money spent really depends on what you can afford right? It was just a joke really

They also have pretty high taxes in that county. A buddy who moved there complains about it a lot. Hah!

I cheer against them all season. Why would I cheer for them in the playoffs?

Chubarov was actually a solid 4th liner. That leaving his car behind was funny

For some reason I thought the Aquilinis still had a stake but it is in the hands of Gagliardi. They're teaming up on the proposed Squammish ski resort...so beef might be over. However, that totally makes my joke fail...sad day. :p

The Canucks are like Sandman hotels: mediocre and poorly managed but you will stay there due to location.

So it all your fault this whole time!!!!

Actually was a complete beast his last playoffs...but boy I am enjoying watching the Isle get stomped.

If so better be good because they shoehorn in a hack like Cassie Campbell again.... Yes Cassie knows her stuff but she is not a good TV personality.

Well damn. I guess I have to watch some more games this year for Cheech. It's been since late January

Stipe is a hell of a fight but ALWAYS figured Jon would move up right and take over. I don't think any can deal with him grappling wise. That sub on Gane...holy .... He is the best there has been and the bar is f**king high, Only one I will entertain over GSP.

Only one I don't loathe is the Lightening. The rest can *&%# off pretty much equally.

Shame he didn't bankrupt him and force a sale....

Would hilarious...on 31 other teams...but it is our team....wheeeeee!

There is no certainty of that. Hell the economic forecast is pretty bleak globally.

Still better than the orca imo.

*&%#$@$!$@$@ I have tickets to Five Alarm Funk anyways ...far more entertaining .

Actually at 7pm...a minor miracle right there......

Nah.....it has to work eventually...maybe the 37th retool when FA's kid is trying to win it all for HIS dad....

Futile

Except history Kidding. I hope this turns out amazing but I honestly feel a tear down was needed but knew we wouldn't get one. Really hope I am wrong and a heavy retool works out well

My first thought was along the lines of ...yup Yzerman knows how to build a winner while our owner can't leave well enough alone and hired 2nd tier management.

I'll accept up to 3.23546 percent. Beyond that...

You can't fault this move...well some can...but....
