High and Inside

Aquilini should of at least waited for the rally to happen. Donnelly could easily sue for wrong dismissal if he was on the payroll. What if he doesn’t go now? Plus since when do we fire people for speaking there mind? What if he was going to go there while social distancing? I could follow the rules and still speak against it. I agree with most of the restrictions but it’s easier for me as I’m an introvert and a homebody so it doesn’t change things as much for me. I just wish we provided more resources to the people that are getting blasted by this crisis and not just financially.

This is what I heard. Hopefully these orders they are talking about are meaningful. Although short of a lock down I don’t think there is much that will really put the brakes on this thing. I personally have resorted to just staying home when not working. I have underlying conditions that prevent me from wearing a mask so I just make essential trips and that’s about all. Unfortunately my job has me on the frontline but that’s the sacrifice I make so everyone else can live happily.

No. He said there would be new orders announced tomorrow.

People need to be policed because there is a lot of dumb ones out there. You seem pretty smart and do the right thing. A lot of people don’t do the right thing and this is what we’re left with. I didn’t party at my house before covid and still don’t. Never interested me.

Quotes can get misunderstood. It can be read into different ways. Hopefully he becomes a meaningful player for us.

How they are going to police the new party rule? Everything was going somewhat decent and then Bonnie Henry closed the bars where you can babysit people and make sure they don’t get stupid. Since they closed everything the parties went underground and now everyone’s getting covid. Police can’t see inside people’s living rooms but they can see in a bar.

The GM of his Russian team said that in Dhaliwals extended twitter post.

That’s a valid reply. I’m not totally writing him off but he needs to round out his game more. Even in the World Juniors last year I expected him to dominate a little more. Definitely he could still become a great player.

My concern level is going up with this player. I know he is young and not every player breaks out right away and he could just be a late bloomer but if there saying that he isn’t working hard enough then that is a big red flag. This guy was a top 10 pick and right now I’m not seeing him justified for that spot. We already blew two top ten picks in Olli and Jake so this kid needs to turn into a legit top 6 player. I hope I’m wrong.

Well said. We have enough bottom 6 guys and eventually we a need spot for our prospects. I think Lind plays games this season for Vancouver.

Your so far out of touch right now. If we had massive amounts of people sick back in December then we would of also been seeing people showing up at the hospital doors on a ventilator and that didn’t happen in December. Also your claims about BC having any degree of herd immunity is totally false. The reason why are numbers are lower is due to spring break, travel, population density, lifestyle, weather. Our province has only one real densely populated city and that’s the lower mainland whereas eastern Canada is suburb after suburb. Same thing with the east coast USA. Our spring break was later so we couldn’t travel. Quebecers made spring trips to hard hit areas like France Italy and NYC. We get early springs so our population can spend way more time outside where the virus doesn’t transmit easily. I live in Kelowna and everything we do in the summer is outside covid or no covid. I Dont think you have your facts right. Do some research.

It would make absolutely no difference. I actually don’t mind not having reports on the weekend. Plus it gives Bonnie Henry a little break. She deserves a little bit of time off although I doubt she takes a complete day off.

Sign AP now and talk to Florida and do a Boeser plus for Ekblad. Our D and goaltending would be solid and we have enough forward prospects in the pipeline.

I think we did great today. Better to get rid of a guy a year early then a year late. You don’t pay for the past you pay for what your going to get moving forward. Take the emotion out of the contract and do what’s right for the team. Belichuk style. The Markstrom was too risky and we got a suitable replacement for less money and only a two year deal. Wel done Jim.

Thank goodness this isn’t happening. 56 million and the want top prospects. No go for me.

Will see if the lose out on a chance to get Zary or Lapierre that would be a bad trade for Calgary.

I did a test in BC and Alberta in April and my one in Kelowna was back in 7 hours and my test in AB was back within 24 hours. The tests are available rather quickly you just need to sign up for myhealth or phone them. I don’t think honk your assessment is totally accurate. Maybe at certain times or if labs are down but other then that I thinks it been within 24 hours for the most part.

Not everyone can wear a mask. Get over it. My breathing gets restricted and it raises my heart rate to almost 200 bpm. If it works for 90 percent of the people out there then good enough.

You can’t just shut down the airlines. There is a big difference between a banquet hall and an airline. You make it sound so simple.

Those messages you stated are the absolute basics that virtually every province/state is doing. In BC you can still waltz into a save on without a mask. Im an essential worker so I’ve had to travel all over North America during the pandemic and BC has very few restrictions compared to cities like Montreal, Chicago and NY. I would say promoting tourism starting July 1 set us back the most. I think if we kept the province to ourselves we would of been better off. Cases are going up but its not too late at all to reverse the trend.

I don’t think we did anything real great in March/April. I think luck and circumstances were in our favor. Everyone made Bonnie Henry out to be a goddess when really she didn’t do anything special that others didn’t do. Some get hit early others later. Right now we’re getting hit.

Definitely should kept Albertans out. I live in Kelowna and we were fine until they showed up.

Depth is still an issue. Every Stanley Cup winner seems to have third and fourth lines that can help push the team a bit. I’m thrilled with the way our stars played: Pettersson, Hughes and Miller were great. I would re sign Markstrom if it’s a team friendly contract but I can totally see him wanting to cash in. In terms of the bottom 6 I think we can look in house versus signing any UFAs. As I said I’m willing to let Markstrom walk as well as Toffoli. Resigning Tanev would be productive for the team and for Quinn. We have guys like Macewan Podkolzin Lind and Hoglander at forward/ Rathbone Rafferty Juolevi on defence to build from within and push some of these bottom of the lineup vets out the door. Sutter and Eriksson need to go.

He has been skating in Kelowna during the pandemic on private ice during the crisis. He went out for a drink and what’s the big deal? A lot of guys go to clubs they are entitled to a life too. Patrick Kane goes out all the time and he is just fine. People now a days are so sensitive to other people these days.
