    People need to consider that Aquilini just might not be one of the developers in the back pockets of our politicians.

     

    We all know how long it takes for anything to get developed in Vancouver. Unless of course you know the right people…

     

    My guess is there will be a long back and forth of who pays for what if it ever gets decided. We’re probably 10 years from getting this team a practice facility.

    No those guys are connected. They have mega projects going in every major city across Canada. Even on native reserves.

    Yes exactly so he's committed to cash, not the leafs. 

     

    All the toronto media immediately rave about what a great deal this is. It might be a fair deal by the numbers, but the 4 yr term can't be possibly be a good thing for leafs. I guess they're just happy that he resigned and worry later. 

    Ok but if you look at Vegas and their history.  being loyal isn't worth it.  everybody needs to put themselves first.  Management and Players

    There’s no reason to think he won’t be as good or better over the next 4 seasons, so this could actually end up being a steal and his next contract could end up really costing the Kraken, but the cap should go up by a lot by then.

    Not sure how much the cap is going to keep going up. The American TV deal wasn't anywhere near what they expected. The canadian TV deal,  Rogers already said they took a loss on it and won't be going for the complete coverage again.

    There's this thing called designated drivers. Have a group of friends and alternate who takes everyone home. There was this thing called Taxi's long before Uber.

    It takes a few minutes of planning and everyone gets home safe. The life you save (and vehicle) might be your own. Let alone injuring or killing others or causing damage to others.

     

    Taxis say no to service if they don't think They're going to get a customer on return.

    Are you saying it's ok to drink and drive? I go to the Milltown Pub in South Van. I tip well. If I'm driving I don't drink. If I walk down, then I can drink.

    Would you rather "kill" a scene, or see people getting killed by impaired driving? Last thing I want to hear is a kid crossing a street in Delta getting smoked by a drunk driver.

    Vancouver has transit, you can get Uber at a press of button, you get billions of dollars every other year for another transit project and don't really need to own a vehicle if you live in that city . In the Valley we got one Transit investment after 30 years for the same amount of population, you can't  do anything without a car . We don't even have Bus service that goes through our entire cities.
