  1. Catch-22. China is their only major lifeline.
  2. So as long as his success doesn't interfere with the Canucks success....I wish him the best of luck.
  3. I don’t think there is a lot of trust in any form of government nowadays. Stay safe man.
  4. Still amazes me to this day that the pairing of Edler and Juice was HORRIBLE. And this was during each of their peaks. Each a more than solid top 4 D that could skate. Strange how chemistry works. I also still chuckle whenever I hear about Burke’s story about Bieksa meeting Fedor Federov on the Moose.
  5. How do you know there wasn't a "Coneheads" convention in town? Really funny skit back in the classic SNL days....
  6. Are you talking before or after the beatdown. Never struck me as the sharpest tool in the shed.
  7. Defensive ability is an underrated skill. Problem is as you said is durability. Same issue with dealing Tanev. Both players have NTCs that makes it harder to deal either player. Tanev's deal is an expiring one that would interest playoff contenders more at the trade deadline than Sutter's contract which has an additional year left.
  8. Too soon to make jokes? I wonder if Ozzy Osborne should donate his blood so authorities can figure out if they could make a serum of sorts ala snake venom? He did bite the head off a bat and survived.
  9. Montreal fans mostly were in our corner. Granted, mainly because they LOATHED the Bruins. **** Toronto. **** Edmonton. **** Calgary. **** Ottawa.
  10. That's how I understand it. Course I got my knowledge of the law from watching Perry Mason.
  11. Will you marry me Alf?  (I know Melmacians can be married to multiple partners....)  :ph34r:

  12. Late 1960s....Trudeaumania Plague caused a horrible epidemic in Canada. And just when it looked like the disease was gone, it mutated in 2015. Signed Ryan Strome
  13. If he gets real prison time, he'll demand to be put in "protective custody". Sex offenders aren't too highly thought of by other prisoners.
  14. I thought it was Ric Flair? Or was it Tully Blanchard? Or one of the Anderson ‘brothers’?
  15. "Living next to you is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt." Justin's daddy....
  16. Rats are the first that desert a sinking ship. I can overlook the offer sheet he signed that made Dave Nonis' job more difficult....it's the handcuff he put on Benning that makes it tougher for me to swallow (one or two team demand list).
  17. She's a professional fraud. At least Bone Spurs is just an amateur grifter.
  18. Quality D cost the most as most teams other than maybe a team like the Canes are looking to add here. Cost the Coilers Taylor Hall, a first line forward, to get a 2nd pairing D.
  19. The guys we can afford to deal pretty much have limited value because of either NTC type clauses and or the fact we can't retain much due to our cap situation. Sometimes the best move is to do nothing....especially not dealing any more picks. This is the clear strength of the organization. Let them find more gems via drafting.
  20. Doubt Sutter gets moved as he has another year left on his contract after this season. It’ll take a pretty hefty salary retention (which eliminates the purpose of dealing him for cap purposes) for another team to want to take such a risk in acquiring him (given his injury history). He also has about a 50% ‘do not trade’ clause which increases the difficulty in moving him. If he can EVER stay healthy, he provides a valuable skill in the postseason.....defensive play.
  21. I have your reported your post to the Emperor Palpatine. Expect a visit from Darth Vader. Rebel scum.
