I would much rather listen to Faber or Quadrelli over Drance

Livingstone is a toss up at best after my conversation with the dental assistant I was talking to yesterday. She is from Creston, close to the same age as he is and they are good friends. She thinks he will sign with one of the US teams but did not say which or if she even knew. Small town Creston as I know her grandfather. Pretty sure @Boudriaswould know the family too. Grandfather about same age as us, 1st name Marvin.

You couldn't pay me enough to consider moving to the coast. Hunting, Fishing, Kayaking, Skiing are all within a few minutes to a 1/2 hours drive from my doorway. Trophy Mulies like to camp out on my neighbors front yard under his apple tree during hunting season. Sunny most of the winter too. -

That is the normal route for most inspections. We were committed to buying the home at the agreed to price barring major issues and the homeowner knew that so allowed us to proceed with the inspection beforehand. -

Probably depends on where you live in BC. Here in the East Kootenay it cost around $400 back in 2015 when we had the place we ere interested in checked out. I did not tell the inspector that a was a journeyman Electrician as I wanted to use my knowledge as a gauge against what he found and what I noticed while accompanying him on his visit. I was quite impressed with the amount of detail and as I had my cell with me I took photos of areas of concern. -

The hiring of a certified home inspector is well worth the price as they can pick out many things that the average homeowner might miss. A good inspector will give you a detailed list of what he has found. PS: Only have this done if you are reasonably certain this is the home you want and in the last stages of actually buying it. If the current owner will not let the inspector check the place out before you put pen to paper; you should look for a different home. -
Depending on how Hronek pans out; he is likely the replacement for Tyler Myers who, IMO, will be bought out or traded in the off season. Hronek is 8 years younger and cheaper and will not be an RFA with arbitration rights till 2024-25. There could be some cap savings if Myers is moved. Still have some hope for both Schenn and Livingstone to be part of the D next season.

[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Dallas Stars | Feb. 27, 2023

I'll have to chew on your post for awhile before I will be able to reply to it -
He can but that does not mean he will. Still think he will sign with Van.

All NCAA play inc. playoffs are done on or before April 9th. Depending on how far his team goes we should see him by then

Silovs going to have his work cut out for him as many of the Abby Canucks D-men are with Vancouver right now.

There is a great post in today's Canucks Army about the life of former Canuck, Donald Brashear. I was not aware of the brutal upbringing that he endured. Amazing individual to be able to survive that and play hockey in the NHL. He has had his ups and downs now that he is out of hockey but seems to be doing OK these days. It is well worth the read.

@Googlie There is no wildcard in the AHL playoffs this season. The playoff format is as given below. -
I think we will have to wait a bit before we get a true idea of the game plan but it seems that they are stocking on low cost high potential forward positions in order to move a couple of expensive forwards contracts in order to free up cap space. Hard to add high end D-men without having the Cap to do it..

My fear is that the big club will keep some of them up for the duration of the season. Wolanin in particular, was the main play driver for Abby and they will not likely fare well in the playoffs if he is not on the team. Not sure how many can be papered down but Aman, Raty and Pods should be playing for Abby in the playoffs.
