  1. Someone explain the attraction of weed smoke. To me its very off putting, like a skunk pee'd in my face. More than anything thats whats keeping me away from trying it (since I was a teen).

      My thing is I hate smoke, period.  I smoked (heavily) for awhile but just hate any kind of smoke as it's an irritant to me.  And the smell of weed is putrid. 

      I AM fully on board with exploring the medical properties should I ever need to.  It's much more natural than the chemicals they pump at us through the pharm industry.  I steer clear of them, so would be inclined to go that route.   

      We partied, hard, when I was young and so I'm trying to make up to my body for all that abuse early on.

      Hopefully Toronto hires him when they finally fire the moron they currently have running the team.

  4. Made a miso-based chicken recipe last night and made the mistake of giving the leftovers to my dog. What I saw this morning was unholy.

      its all good Mike. We've always just used Presidents Choice for our dogs and they've been healthy happy pups. Yeah I break down and give them the occasional scrap but for gods sake their lives are so short and they like it so much I just can't help it sometimes. One thing I do avoid tho is giving them fatty stuff. I often give them leftover rice and they seem quite thrilled by that. For some reason it seemed like an ok idea to give them the leftover miso chicken..... it was probably that I was on my 3rd gin. Maybe I should have mentioned that earlier.

      I spoiled my dog rotten...not gonna lie.  I'd cook a roast...mostly for her.  

       

      My ex's dog (lab) is allergic to everything.  Is on a raw duck and veggie diet ($$).

  5. Would Loui for Kesler straight up work? Kesler would be on LTIR but if they take Loui they get a decent player and don't have to expose a younger F to Seattle like they would if they keep Kes.

      Sucks that we don't have the space for him. 26 goals last year, fast, still prime aged (27), and plays all forward positions. Excellent 4-8 guy to have on your roster.

      well Mr. Funk, I think the aging process must be where the magic is because is just a really smooth drink. Apparently it starts in an oak barrel and finishes off for a few years in a port barrel so there's a lot of good things going on in there. 

  11. was the 7x7 news Benning finally using the media to his advantage to scare off other offers? 

    1. SabreFan1

      SabreFan1

      No, because all the other GM's have to do is call Myer's agent or vice versa.  There just wasn't much competition apparently.  The Canucks can thank the lower than expected cap raise for that.

  12. It would make my day if Bobrovsky re-signs with CBJ

  13. Someone light a candle for Columbus. They're gutted. 

  14. Edmonton going after Perry. That Lucic Perry line is going to be a speedster.

      Might be the first line in NHL history whose speed could be measured with a calendar.

  15. If Sanheim is worth 3.25, signing Hutty to a 1 year deal at his current 2.8 seems more than fair.

      We also need a few D that can get a decent(heavy) point shot on goal. Feels like forever we've been needing that.

  16. Go for it Jimbo, land us Myers and Nyquist to go with JT Miller.  I'm tired of the lotto.

      @48MPHSlapShot 

       

      No I think I've got the numbers correct - we'd need to bury Schaller and Loui in Utica, and buy out Spooner. We'l be pressed up to the cap but so what? I mean who cares? lets go for it. It could be a fun ride.

       

      When I think back to how much effort our guys put in almost every night, and you add Myers, Miller and Nyquist to that? I like our chances at a wildcard for sure.

      @Jimmy McGill

      Excellent point about the salary being mostly in the first four years as bonus dollars.  Then, after those four years, trade Myers to a bottom feeder cap team, like the Coyotes.

      We traded away a lottery pick! Nobody knows what the pick will be yet but I'm sure it's a lottery pick! There's no way the team will be better, it's a lottery pick! What do you mean we can defer it to 2021? That would definitely be a lottery pick! Expecting us to rise in the standings is ridiculous!

      cheers fellas I'm off to the show 

  22. Edler's deal speaks volumes about his character. He could have had his agent play this a lot harder. 

    1. combover

      combover

      And then have to go play in buffalo or some other far away city 

      And maybe get the same amount and risk not fitting in louie eriksdone ....

      Maybe his agent checked around to see if there was interest for 33year old often injured #3 dman. 

      He wanted to stay there’s a cost to that. 

      It would have been easy for the Canucks to walk away from him his agent and he both had to know that. 

    2. Boeserker

      Boeserker

      Very similar to the Sedins. His number one priority is obviously not to win a cup. I'll take the sweetheart deal for the next 2 years, but in the future, Vancouver needs to steer well clear of players that don't have the "Eye of the Tiger". Regular season = Pre-Season

    3. NewbieCanuckFan

      NewbieCanuckFan

      Unlikely the Canucks would walk away from any deal that didn’t have a protection clause or a fairly short term.  Good luck getting D via free agency that can play higher up than the 3rd pairing for that.  Getting a 2nd pairing D via trade would cost you a ton.

  23. SN 650 reporting Edler willing to waive for expansion. Does that change your willingness to 3 years from 2?

      @alflives

      anyone showing an interest in him

      cannot share your viewpoint

      they will have an assessment that assumes the oilers are a mess

      cannot properly develop talent

      and that the poolster is a talented young player that needs better surroundings

      oilers will not firesale him

      so i can see a lower 1st round pick getting it doen

      or a player like virtanen.. high pick, slowish development

      I sure would.  Better team, closer to home, and a better city?  Why the hell would anyone play for an AHL team in one of the worst cities in North America with fans who are deluded into thinking their joke of a franchise belongs in the NHL?
