      and it was about to be burned down.

  3. If I owned a NHL team, I would trade for Marchand, then send him down to the minors for the rest of his contract!

      @Ghostsof1915 seems to have worked out ok for San Jose sending Kane down before they managed to get rid of him.

      @King Heffy And yet, Kane's still in the NHL in Edmonton. If the task is the put Marchand in the minors and keep him there, Kane's a terrible example since he's still here! lol

      Would get claimed on waivers, better off to make him a healthy scratch every night.

      don't tell alf his scotch supply would dry up.

      without alf our homes would be over run with cats

      without scotch, drivers and pedestrians wouldn't be in fear of alfs driving.

      @NewbieCanuckFan I accidently reported you replying to your post lol. Sorry

      Anyways I thought it was the Leafs and the Habs that c***blocked Vancouver because they didn't want to share TV time. I could be wrong though.

      The NHL didn't want Oakland, they wanted San Francisco, but professional hockey rights for San Francisco were owned by Coley Hall, a Vancouver hockey businessman whom the NHL hated. There was no way that the NHL could get the San Francisco Cow Palace because Hall controlled it. The NHL guys hated Hall so much that they had to go looking for a Vancouver franchise owner, before settling on Tom Scallen, of the Minneapolis -based Medicor company. I believe Scallen later did time in US prison for some kind of financial jiggery-pokery. Eventually the Griffiths family bought it, then the Evil Orcans from Seattle, and now the Aquilinis. And I am pretty sure I have rambled on way past your interest level. so, if yo've made it this far, good on ya and thanks.

      It's wildly impressive that Tampa Bay has basically been at the top of the standings for the last 11 years.

       

      And it's also wild that Detroit used to be in the Western Conference hahaha.

      So like, if you give 'em a quick, short, sharp, shock, they don't do it again.
      Dig it? I mean he get off light, come to think.
      Of rationalising it, once.
      It's only a difference, but why go and ruin it?
      I mean good manners don't cost nothing, do they, eh?

      I don't understand what's going on @Ghostsof1915 that is causing all these unprecedented weather changes. There is something very wrong indeed.

      Yes, the status is a joke - but is it?

      Screw the carbon tax BS.

      It's the soil - and monoculture farming combined with chemicals - been so all along.  

      Fix that - and we erase all the carbon mankind has expelled into the atmosphere.

    4. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      Planting a massive amount of trees would also help. The funny thing is I saw a video on medieval farming. And the fact they would alternate 1/2 the field so it would get nutrients so the soil would never erode, might seem non industrial. But it was vital to make sure the soil stayed healthy, so that you could grow crops year after year.

      @Captain Canuck #12 I think the score was 2-0 with @Rick Blight getting both goals. Blight was a beauty!

    3. Rick Blight

      Rick Blight

      Yes, my namesake did score both goals in the 2-0 shutout. I was actually at that game and always considered that game to be one of Rick's best games and probably the Canucks best game I had seen in quite some time.

      I liked the intro but I didn't, having an intro that starts off with "I want to run, I want to hide" always seemed like a joke
