Excellent response? what is bs about it, everything is spot on
-
you are going to look silly, if you compare schmidt, with stetcher. there is nothing really impressive about stetchers numbers, he played very sheltred minutes. he got out played by 1st,2nd,3rd liners and only played better than 4 liners. what is impressive about that?

Something’s gotta give (Trade deadline coming?)
Bad_BOI_pete replied to DeNiro's topic in General Hockey Discussion
its acheivable, but it means that all injuries are going to be 3 weeks long for LTIR or potentially running a short bench. i haven't heard of any final rulings on the taxi squads. -
i would value cal foote around a first + 2nd, tyler johnson value around nothing maybe slightly less than nothing. kole lind has the less value as cal foote right now maybe worth a 1st, we would really need to add to the lightning trade, maybe a 3rd i would value tanner pearson around nothing, maybe slightly less than nothing as for loui its a little harder to guess how much negative value, but to compare we would have to look at the marleau/stall trades. marleau a 1st and 7th for a 6th. the difference between marleau his contract was able to be bought out and was for only 1 year and cap of 6.25m and 4.25 salary staal is a 3rd pairing defenseman and was traded for a second, only 1 year on his contract and is expected to play salary 3.2 million and cap of 5.7m loui contract is for 2 years and cant be bought out, hes maybe a 4th liner and he might not make the team he gets traded too. salary owed over 2 years is 5 million cap 6m he can be bought out next year i honestly think LE value is around - 2 1sts or - 1st and a - second. two years of wasted 6m in cap so your other trade is way off for LE the trade would look something like pearson, loui and 2 1sts for a 7th i would not trade loui and 2 1sts for a 7th rounder. we need those 1sts still if were serious about competing in 2 years

Should Gino Ojdick be in the Ring of Honour?
Bad_BOI_pete replied to cuporbust's topic in Canucks Talk
i honestl i honestly think ron delorme deseves a very serious look. he has been with the canucks orginaztion for almost 30 years now, as a player and a scout. he is very active with the indigenous community and speaks to youth on the reserves. sharing his story of breaking barriers in the sportwhile also encouraging youth to play sport as well. -

im going to agree with you in alot of the points you make, i have always said its better financially to live in the states if your making large amounts of money. but, i dont agree that jobs pay 150% its more like 95-250%. 150% happens only when you get into very specialized jobs, wich require lots of education and experience. wage disparity in the united states is very extreme.take in point entry level jobs like mcdonalds new york cook 10$hr US vancouver cook 14.6$hr cad you can see the wage disparity in the median household income vs average salary 57,782$US 2015 NUMBERS MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME. 72585$CAD 2015 NUMBERS MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME. average salary in new york 77kUS average salary in vancouver is 62kCAD the average person is better off to live in vancouver oh and here is the average software engineer salary (including bonuses) at amazon vancouver 110k CAD New york 160kus -
it's great that you had the courage to admit the mistake, and now have changed your thought process. That quality really is what seperates the good from the great. PS your story about your grandmother was kind of similar to mine with my mom's death. I could have gone to the hospital that night, but after a 12 hour day of shovelling snow i was rather weary. I was planning on seeing her when i found out. But after checking the bus routes it was going to be another 1.5 hours of travel, somehow I changed my mind. Since then my sister and I have been helping out my step father alot. He's actually in a really bad state right now, and due to his severe rheumatoid arthritis and his alcholic coping mechanisms is not taking care of himself or the acreage. i dont mind helping, which is a good thing because he really needs it right now.

honestly im not going to take your word for it, since first ou said 600000 and now your saing 300000. the cost of commuting 2 hours is also a real cost to consider. but i will search a couple tech jobs for you. new york 95,933 before taxes san francisco 103,390 vancouver 80,300 also you could buy a 3 bedroom house in abbotsford for 500,000 with only a 50 minute commute. still the advantage goes to vancouver -

yes, mom was in the hospital for a seizure. i got the call from my sister and me not knowing how serious a seizure could be i decided i would see her in the morning. i honestly thought nothing of it. she developed pneumonia from the seizure and later on that night stopped breathing. my brother commited suicide when i was younger, at the time i was very depressed due to my mental illness i suffer from. i missed a call from him 2 days before he took his life,i never called him back because i was so miserable at the time. i have forgiven myself from my brothers death, but am still upset over my mothers death which was just this year. there has been a lot of things i wish i never did in my life, but for the majority of them i have forgiven myself.

experienced carpenters are making upwards to 40$ hour, the reason to show the average salary is that thier is more data points,and therefore a more accurate comparison. -

the wages are less in edmonton than in vancouver. its the cost of living and taxes thats the big factor, you will save about 550 dollars a month if you lived in edmonton compared to vancouver. you would save about 300$ a month if you lived in edmonton over surrey. you would save about a 100 dollars month to live in edmonton over langley -

i honestly dont care what you think about my comparison, i didnt do it for you i have friends in milwuakee, and i live in edmonton. as for your second point, what is your point? the average carpenter in edmonton makes 60k a year this factors in new hires and experienced alike. im not even comparing the difference between edmonton and vancouver,but if i did cost of living would be a big factor. its cheaper up here next time maybe i will consult drummerboy before i make a comparison -

Dallas vs vancouver in a cost analysis standpoint,seems like dallas wins handsdown. everything is cheaper and you will make more money. i imagine at some point having a family of 4 in vancouver makes more sense if our family makes between 120,000 in CAD 160,000. if your single though it will be assuredly be better to live in dallas https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/compare_cities.jsp?country1=United+States&country2=Canada&city1=Dallas%2C+TX&city2=Vancouver Consumer Prices in Vancouver are 12.79% higher than in Dallas, TX (without rent) Rent Prices in Vancouver are 5.32% higher than in Dallas, TX Restaurant Prices in Vancouver are 2.45% lower than in Dallas, TX Groceries Prices in Vancouver are 32.09% higher than in Dallas, TX Local Purchasing Power in Vancouver is 40.24% lower than in Dallas, TX San Francisco vs vancouver in a cost analysis standpoint,seems like its more complicated. everything is cheaper in vancouver but you will make less money on average 60% less (including exchange rate).
