  1. my game plan for next year would be; buy out...ferland; trade roussel, sutter and virtanen; retire...eriksson; walk away from edler and benn; hoping seattle takes holtby; resign hamonic and trade for a rhd; take a flyer on petey's brother and see if they have any magic together; bring up lind and rathbone for next season.

    resign green; find out what we've got in boyd, vesey, macewen, lind. rathbone and podkolzin? probably not tough enough yet.

      no - still not tough enough - although Benning did say in his presser that they were going to try to  sign Tramkin - but he didn't seem to like playing that tough game either. We will see - suspect in 2 years this is a totally different look for the team - hope I live to see it.

  3. Gratitude & Love. Let's all spread as much of it as we can during isolation 2020

     

    It seems like everyone is complaining about grocery stores having certain items out of stock... I've had friends tell me they are shook the store was out of chicken, or bananas and that has ruined their day...

     

    For real?! I'm not even going to address the paper product shortage because it's silly. 

     

    Over 29,000 people die every day from hunger... Every time I have gone to get groceries during this break, I've still had an incredible abundance of food to chose from. 

     

    If you show gratitude as much as you can, these times will be more enjoyable.

      You are an amazing person Apollo - always positive, looking for the best in a situation, never getting to high or too low. We could all take a lesson from you. These are trying times - no chicken - eat something else - if we can afford to do so these are the times we should be giving to food banks - the crunch hasn't hit us here yet - wait 2 or 3 weeks. In our little community grocers are opening an hour early 2 days a week for the elderly and handicapped. I applaud them - I see people offering to pick up and deliver things for people who are isolated. We can make it through this if we all use some common sense and be kind to one another. Just thank you for being you

  5. i believe that canuck's management sees everything we see. they know if the problem is coaching; personnel related or something else. i trust they will do whatever they can to improve the product. it may take time.

      I think you are right Joe.  I believe part of it is trying to move  some players - Ferland getting hurt - Eagle out . I just want to see the team play like they did in Oct

  7. silly season proposal, just for fun.

    elias pettersson, brock boeser and chris tanev to new jersey for, taylor hall, ist over-all pick and josh jacobs. 

    re-united the hughes brothers, have hall become the new boeser, jacobs as a younger version of chris tanev and still have our own tenth pick. i know, thank god, i’m not the gm. 

  8. Where is Alf?  I think he's missing because there's been a HUGE increase in the number of stray cats on our block!

      yes, hope he is OK - I asked a couple games ago and someone said he was going through a rough patch - I didn't ask what that meant but certainly hope is is alright.

  9. Started earlier than usual.  Not that I ever stopped. :lol:

    im one blessed old bugger.  Mrs. Alf puts up with me, and takes care of me too.  

    For you young guys here.  Are you stupid?  You should be all over these single women here who are passionate about sports, and are fun too.  Mrs. Alf is a sports fan( okay it’s the Leafs :sick:) but watching and talking sports is fun!   Oh, I’m loaded. :blink:

      sometimes your comments make me laugh and sometime Alf they leave me shaking my head.  If you go for the shock effect - sometimes you succeed.  Happy New Year to you and Mrs Alf - share your scotch with the dear lady

  12. Mrs. Alf brought home a bottle of wine.  She says it’s better for me than scotch.  Next she’s going to be tying pick ribbons in my fur. :(

      I certainly hoped you thanked Mrs Alf - after all she could have just picked up ribbons and bows - instead she's plying you with the nectar of the gods. You are one very lucky furry alien

  15. Mrs Alf is the best.  I’m drink on scotch.  I love scotch.  Stliil Mrs. Alf is nice to me, and makes sure I’m safely in bed.  Who else has such a good spouse?  Scothch is is evil.  It’s so tasty:)

      I can't wait to see him in our line up - him and Kole Lind too - they look as interesting as Elias P - just my opinion though

  24. how many cdc'ers will be choked if benning doesn't pick the player at 5 that they want?

    1. Bo fan

      Bo fan

      someone will always be choked no matter what Benning does.  I have a lot of faith in his scouting abilities.  From reading the scouting reports it doesn't look like there is a big margin between picks as you go down the list - makes it hard to  guess who could  become a great player or could be a bust. I have faith Benning will pull a rabbit out of his hat.
