  1. Have you ever gotten to the point with someone close to you, that their screwups no longer get you mad, but just depressingly disappointed? 

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      You get mad when you think they're better than that. You get depressed when you realize they're not.

  2. If Zadina is at 7, you take Zadina.

      Well...duh.

       

      ...Unless Dahlin is also at 7, then I'd take him instead. :P

  3. according to dhaliwal, canucks are interested in beagle. a good place holder.

      I'm a Beagle fan too. Wouldn't be opposed to overpaying him for a short-term deal (2-3 years).

  4. Would a package involving Tanev and Tyler Johnson be fair/realistic?

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      It makes a lot of sense. But Tampa should add. They are the ones operating under a deadline (Johnson has a full NTC that starts July 1st).

  5. If there’s anyone I enjoy seeing hit stardom, it’s probably Janelle Monáe. Django Jane is awesome.

      Even when she guests on another artist's song, it takes it to another level. Off the top of my head, the tracks she did with Grimes, Fun., and Outkast were all fantastic.

  7. I have come to the conclusion that Houses Of The Holy is now my fav Led Zep album

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      Over The Hills and Far Away, Dancing Days, D'yer Maker, and No Quarter are 4 of my favourite Zep songs, so it might just be mine too.

      If you don't want to hurt, get out of the way! That means you too, goalie.

  10. I'm no fan of No Show Joe but Kadri really crossed a line there.  You just don't mess with a guy's beard.

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      Gotta admit though, when Kadri is at peak SOB-edness, he's a very effective player. I'd HATE to play a playoff series against him.

  11. Red Wings clobbered the Flames.

    1. D-Money

      Correction Red Wings clobbered Lack and Gillies.

       

      Too bad...always liked Lack the person, but Lack the goalie looks done.

  12. Going to Calgary later this week. Won't be able to stop where we want to since it's a tour trip but we will be able to explore some popular places. Any nice places to go/restaurants to go eat out at?

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      Oh yeah, almost forgot - Bear Street Tavern in Banff has AMAZING pizza. And it's right in the middle of downtown Banff.

       

      Avoid The Grizzly House though. It is a trendy pick, as it is in a former swingers' club (even still has old phones that will call the other tables), and serves 70's-style fondue. But it was overpriced, smoky, and the food underwhelming. My wife and I didn't enjoy it at all.

      I will go to OEB for lunch too (love breakfast for lunch!). I think they're open til 2:30pm every day.

       

      I now live in Chestermere, which is a community East of Calgary. But I work Downtown.

       

      If you're going to Banff, another great restaurant is Three Ravens. It's at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity - which in itself is a pretty cool place worth seeing. And definitely go for a drink at the Banff Fairmont (but don't stay there). The hotel is very old and expensive, but it is situated in the coolest location. There is a lounge at one end that has awesome drinks, and an even better view.

       

      Oh yeah, and Village Ice Cream is a great place to grab a cold treat downtown. It's between the main core of downtown and the Saddledome.

      Second Native Tongues - it's phenomenal. (From personal experience, I avoid Mexican restaurants in Calgary in general, unless it's this one.) Went there with friends a few weeks ago on a Saturday night - took us 90 minutes to get in, but was well worth it. Tacos are $1 off on Tuesdays ($2.50 each - regularly $3.50).

       

      For breakfast, the best place in town is OEB. They have 2 locations, one downtown and one in Bridgeland (across river on North side of downtown). My favourite dish is the Wild Boar Spalla...(mouth watering just typing that). If you're going at a busy time, you can check in beforehand with the No Wait app (which is free).

       

      If doing lunch in the Bridgeland area, definitely try Shiki Menya. I'm friends with the owner, but even if I wasn't, I'd eat there as much as possible. Best ramen I've ever had, and it's not even remotely close. There's a long line-up at peak times though.

       

      For interesting places to go, Prince's Island Park, East Village, and McHugh Bluff are all in/around the North end of downtown. And if in East Village, there are 2 fantastic bakeries there: Sidewalk Citizen, and Mari.

  15. What are your guys thoughts on a Granlund - Horvat - Boeser line for our 1st line? I think it would be a good line to try.

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      Granlund - Horvat - Boeser is a great 1st line... ...for a team aiming for a top-5 draft pick.

       

      Of course, that's exactly what we should be going for, so sign me up!

    2. (See 3 other replies to this status update)

  16. Hot take I found on Twitter - Horvat could be had for dirt cheap i.e. Pouliot and 1st. Horvat ceiling is 3C, or 2C on a bad team. Canucks would be better off with Pouliot than Horvat.

  17. On the NHL's Top 250 ranking for fantasy players, Brock Boeser is interestingly rated 247th. Surprised he made it.

  18. Just watched Shinkaruk get a hat trick. 

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      Wow! That puts him at what, 13 AHL goals for the season?

       

      ...I'll still take Granlund, thanks.

  19. We pay extra for 'Non-GMO' food..because people made it normal to pay extra to not eat chemicals. #whatatimetobealive!

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      Why is GMO a thing? Because it makes producing food cheaper. Hence the price for the consumer is cheaper. But if it's not GMO, it's not cheaper. So you're not paying more - you're just not paying less.

  20. Mark Jankowski is eligible to be a UFA if the Flames dont sign him his year. Weisbrod was the one who told the flames to draft him. Weisbrod is now our Assisant GM

    Jankowski to Vancouver COMFIRMED

     he has 18 points in 15 games

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      Flames may let him walk just to get the compensatory 2nd round pick for him. At this point, he's still a decent prospect, but probably not worth a 2nd rounder.

      At that point, he's free to sign with any of the 29 other teams. So why not?

  22. Jared McCann has more points than Eichel in lesser games played while playing on the fourth line while Eichel's been playing top 6 minutes. Not too shabby.

    1. D-Money

      So what you're saying is...

       

      ...MCCANN IS BETTER THAN EICHEL!!!

  23. Making a reboot of Oceans 11 I see, all female cast.  Sandra Bullock the lead?  What could go wrong...

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      The first Oceans 11 remake was fine, because Clooney & Co. were all slick, cool, and believably conniving. Sandra Bullock is none of those things.

      I only eat meat that eats other meat.

      Nothing beats a cow that feasted on the flesh of chickens!

      ...Or, maybe other cows??? (Cownnibals?)

  25. I'm laughing at the 30 in 30 for the Blackhawks today. No mention of Kane whatsoever.

    1. D-Money

      D-Money

      Well, he hasn't been charged with anything yet. And maybe he won't be? I can see why the NHL would want to gloss over it until it's official.
