  1. They need to get rid of those ugly ass seats. They need to change it to navy blue so it can fit with both the blue and black color scheme. Also get rid of the same goal horn the blues, leafs, jackets and bolts use.
  2. I remember wanting Rasmus Andersson with that 2nd and of course Calgary had to take him. That said, I liked Baertschi in his time here. Like others have said injuries and inconsistency most likely related to injuries caused him to fall off. Think he carved out a respectable career given the circumstances. All the best to him in his retirement.
  3. He was playing against other junior Swedes, so he’s still playing with kids. Except in NA he’ll be playing against kids who are much more physical and nastier.
  4. Actually they proposed a 2026 1st rounder
  5. Working on his explosiveness :)))) Imagine if Kuzmenko becomes a 90 point or 50 goal forward. One can hope
  6. You’re a tool. How is it any different to canuck73 or Warhippy? You have quite literally baited me into an argument about moral semantics and then you try and falsely equivocate that perhaps I am minimizing other peoples experience. I bring my own fiancé’s example as to where I’m coming from, and then you have the audacity to paint me out as some insensitive person. I am not going to respond to you further.
  7. How are you even equating me finding this to be as abhorrent as rape, or worse, as somehow me minimizing rape survivors? I mentioned the reasons why I think it’s worse. My fiance was raped. She even thinks what happened to Miller’s victim was arguably worse, hence why I even drew to the conclusion that it was worse. That’s not to minimize anyone else’s experience. Hell, that’s not to minimize someone else’s subjective experience and opinion that it isn’t in the same category as rape. Mental, physical, racial, and sexual abuse was involved, for years, on a child with a disability. To me, more importantly, to my girlfriend, she thinks it’s worse than rape. I believe her. That’s the opinion I’ve come to drawn. You are free to think otherwise. I am not here to argue moral semantics.
  8. How was I minimizing survivors experience? Various forms of abuse have significant and lasting effects. Racial abuse causes psychological damage, perpetuates harmful stereotypes. Mental abuse erodes self-esteem, induces powerlessness. Physical abuse inflicts severe harm, impacting physical and emotional well-being. Sexual abuse causes immense trauma, with emotional, psychological, and physical consequences. Forcing someone to drink piss, then making them lick the bathroom stall, is a form of sexual abuse, it involves genitalia, making it inherently sexual. Now take into consideration that this has happened throughout majority, if not, all of the victims childhood. It’s the length of time that makes it in the same stratosphere as rape. I am making a comparison for argument sake the severity of Miller’s actions. If you think that my original comment is somehow minimizing survivor experiences, then that is your opinion. That was simply not my intention.
  9. Don’t know why the thread title made me Lol
  10. What? He physically, sexually, mentally, racially abused his victim, for YEARS, unrelentlessly, and unremorsefully. You can most certainly compare other crimes to understand the gravity of it. There's no shock value here, other than the reprehensible nature of abuse.
  11. Pearson, Myers, Beauvillier, Cole contracts expire at the end of 2024 season, that’s $16.3M. Cap expected to go up 3-5M so we’re looking at $19-25.3M of cap space next off season. If Garland is moved, that’s an extra $2-4.9M that will be available assuming the return. So roughly $19-25.3M. To sign Hronek and Pettersson.
  12. Kid is just a waste of space and air at this point. No job is going to want him. Unless the KKK want his services.
  13. I would’ve asked him straight up “Will you sign with the Canucks in 2033 UFA” lol
  14. Ahhh Jim Benning, terrible then and still terrrible now
  15. Legally speaking, you cannot consent if you’re impaired. So recording it and double checking if they consented or not actually looks much more incriminating. Due to lawsuits and legality reasons, unless there’s a criminal charge, they can’t really release any names, as this was mostly just a civil case. Since criminal investigations are being conducted by the London Police, they’ll be the ones who will take initiative from here on out. Hockey Canada is likely being investigated as well for their handling, but this could be ramped up if Canada can get enough wind for a national inquiry. By all accounts and reports, London Police have 5 players involved that are being criminally investigated. Once they have enough evidence, they will release those names. NHL will release up to 8 individuals names who were involved in this incident, though not all will be facing criminal charges. Twitter account that posted the grooming allegations was a one day old account, with no other tweets or activity prior, and has since been deactivated. They allegedly said Cole had groomed them during his St Louis Blues days, however the dates that were mentioned, Cole was not a member of the Blues. NHL took less than a week to conclude their investigation, and he was cleared of any wrongdoing. More than likely a hoax.
  16. They need to bring back the siren 

  17. Yikes I did not know that. Pass then lol
