  1. Seems so strange that two National League teams could meet in the World Series. (I still see the Astros as NL.)
  2. All Dmen get beat, and lose puck battles. It's part of the game, and I’m okay with Hutton losing sometimes his one on one play. I’ve noticed a HUGE improvement in his skating from before. His feet appear quicker, and he’s getting to pucks more quickly. I think he’s going to grow into a very good Dman.
  3. He’d...heee...heee...be a good one, isn’t he? Oh boy!
  4. Good point. Drouin is not helping them much, if at all. I’d rather have OJ over Drouin.
  5. I was at that draft, and still can’t believe we passed on Jagr. I thought for sure, when Quinn marched to the stage, he was going to take Jagr.
  6. Can we say what we WILL NEVER LISTEN to? Tried to listen to Drake. My God that is awful stuff. Apologies to any Drake fans, but I really find his music (yes I accept it's music) very irritating. To my fury ears, he just doesn't sound good.
  7. Our defense is actually pretty good. Marky let us down with bad goals those games he played. Having the GIANT Nilsson in nets, will breed confidence within the team.
  8. I see Backstrom as heavier, and more of a complete player than Pettersson. I think Pettersson will put up top five in the league numbers, without OV on his wing.
  9. Couldn’t the same be said for the rain?
  10. Green Mansions: Had to read about Rima again.
  11. How does a hockey player (with the quads those guys have) fit into 'skinny jeans'?
  12. @JamesB It’s great you young fellows love stats (euphemism for ) and respect your wives for allowing you to indulge in your passion. Now just work on that youthful sense of humour. Studying all the stats in the world won’t make our team’s coming season any easier to digest.
  13. After witnessing the best Star Trek character ever - WESLEY CRUSHER - I just can't really enjoy any Star Trek.
  14. It's going to be a rough season or two here anyway, regardless of who plays. Our goal tending is average, at best. I think we need to let the kids play and develop, of which Pouliot looks to be a good one.

    Then we need more, and better young guys. There are a lot of young players making impact on NHL teams, seemingly more than ever before. Where are the JB draft picks?

    Gagner is signed for 3 years...why????
  17. Thing is, I could care less about all the politics. I liked watching him play. If he just wants to play for fun, our Lions could use him. I bet BC Place is full to the rafters with him out there.
  18. So "stats" is what you young guys call them these days.
  19. Favourite breakfast cereal?

     

    Gotta go with Cream of Wheat.  It's an oldie, but a goodie.

      I'm a big fan of cream of wheat. Add a spoonful of jam/ and some milk- yum! I think my favorite will always be raisin bran. Hard to go wrong with that one.

    In 3 years, maybe. He's got a 3 year deal. No team will touch him until the TDL of 2020.

    It's these types of signings ( soft, old, and non compete guys) that are keeping fans away. Yes, we want to see our younger player.
  22. I think he’s more offensively gifted than both those guys.
  23. Love to see my favourite player to watch, Mr. Cam (not fig) Newton, hoist the Lombardi. Guy is the BEST!
