  1. Any guy who plays guitar is good in my books.
  2. From watching Tyler last year, he struck me as a good play maker, good hands, descent defensively and a big body (he could learn more about the hitting side of things). I am thinking he would be a better choice over Bailey. What do you guys think? (he can skate like the wind as well).
  3. Hi Googlie, Have you heard about the AHL not having the Calder handed out this season? Just curious if it is a sure thing or not? Enjoy the Comets game and Nucks game tonight.
  4. Would be fun to see Tranman on the left and Myers on the right. Wow.
  5. It is interesting to go back to read some of the articles and video clips about JT in New York and and Tampa. AV sat him quite a bit saying a lot of the same things people say about Jake. JT's production in NY and Tampa is not unlike Jakes as well. I hope he can get traded and regain his confidence because I think there is more there but Just like JT (26 years old?) Jake is still able to continue his development in a less toxic fan base. I have always supported him and wish he could pull it together here but I suppose time will tell. The year JT played before he came here and he scored 13 goals in 75 games. Quite a big change for him at 26 or 27 to come here and have the best season of his career.
  6. I am looking forward to seeing how Jett Woo's season unfolds. So far he has been looking very good in Utica. Utica plays tonight at 4pm PST. I will watch Utica first and then just slide in for the Nucks game.
  7. Sorry for the mistake DeNiro but I just finished the game and Kole Lind played well. Woo stood out for me as well as Focht was great and picked up his first goal. I think Lind or Focht both could make great third line centers.
  8. Well, its hockey night in the AHL and the Comets play the Devils at 4pm PST. Krock is their radio station and if you want to watch you can watch it on AHLTV. Go Comets!

    Woo has looked good in Utica so far (Only a couple games). He could be close to being ready next year. I think Jett would be a good partner for Quin at some point as well.
  10. I have been saying that Kole is going to be our 3rd line center sooner than later. I think this is why Adam was only signed for 1 year.
  11. I really like the Jake - Brandon - Mac line. I hope it can be kept together for a bit to really gel together as a line.
  12. I have to disagree about Big Mac. Big fan but I didn't think he has had a great start. He has seemed a step slow to me. His game was a bit better last game but it was his best game. I could be wrong but that's how I have see it so far this season.

    Who will be the better LD OJ or Trannyman? I am going with OJ. I don't think Trannyman will be as good as OJ.
  14. Have you seen AG? He is quite scrawny. He has a stomach illness that weakens him until he gets it under control. I noticed Kole Lind is being used as a center at training camp in Utica. I think Kole would be a great 3rd line center next year. He has good hands and is a good playmaker. Plus he is a pest. If I am remembering correctly he played PP and PK last year in Utica. If Adam can't put on some muscle and improve his defensive game and PK ability he won't be able to keep up as a bottom 6 forward because I don't think he is a top six guy. Not responsible defensively and will expose the rest of the line. I like Adam but I am just unsure he is as good as I first thought he was. Just some thoughts.
  15. This guy has really taken me by surprise. I don't think he will be a Calder finalist but he will be a good top nine forward. It almost feels like we had 2 first round picks with Podz & Hogz and Hogz could be the better player.
  16. I wonder if Pete may have a similar mind set that Nathan MacKinnon. Taking less so the team can keep all their high end talent. Too bad more guys didn't think that way.
  17. Out of the adversity they are experiencing new locker room leaders will emerge. The season is far from over and I think 3 games against Ottawa is just what the doctor ordered. Go Go!
  18. 4 - 3 Canucks win. Shotgun Jake with the winner.
  19. Hey Gurn, interesting topic. I used to have the full surround sound stereo set up but I have moved into a condo with my wife, as the kids are grown and out of the house, and needed to down size so I began to think about my first stereo back in the late 70's. So I set out to build the same setup I had when I was younger. I have somewhere around 500 to 600 Albums and 200 CD's so I set out to find the components. I found a Yamaha CR-420 Natural Sound Stereo Receiver (made in 1978). The exact receiver I had before. I needed to do some work on it and got it working good. I then found my Turntable. A Technics SL-23 Frequency Generator Servo (Belt driven from 1979). I have a pair of 2 way Audio Polk speakers but I had a set of Altec Lancing speakers and am still trying to find them. A bit nostalgic but it has been fun trying to find all the right parts.
  20. Canucks win 4 - 2 Goals by Pete, Jake, Miller and Huggy Bear. Go Nucks Go
  21. Jake was one of the best skaters last night. I thought he had a good game. Greener had him out double shifting both he and Hogz because they were the two who were actually skating out there. Jake had a decent game in the season opener and struggled in the next game and last night he was one of our best skaters. I do believe he had 5 or so hits last night as well. Jake could score 20 goals this year and we would still be throwing him under the bus.
  22. Good grief you guys, its only 2 games.
