  1. If we lose again, the mods should switch CDC to 'read only' for a cooling period so we don't get too many stupid threads. Big picture, at the beginning of the season, most fans would have predicted this is exactly where we would be. On the bubble for a playoff spot. It's just that the Canucks lost a few in a row that has people freaking out. Now is not the time to panic.
  2. That's one bold prediction. Imagine if they could also use that beverage to dump over their coach's head in some sort of celebratory tradition?
  3. Not close, just on the same arc. I think in three years time this team will be good enough to contend for real and not just for the final playoff spot. While I agree their D prospects aren't as deep as we would like I think there is enough talent and/or assets in the pool that we have the ingredients for a damn good team. Maybe I'm just more optimistic than you?
  4. Can we start that one now? My prediction: Offsides, icing and the goal light all called by the electronic puck system. Too many men called by the player tracking system.
  5. It is full. It's just a half-glass.
  6. I look at a team like the Avalanche and feel like we are behind them, on the same arc. If the Canucks keep developing the way they are, they should be contenders within a few short years.
  7. Not a 'Must Win' at all. The Canucks could lose tonight and would still control their own destiny in regards to a playoff spot. It's just that each loss reduces the margin of error. I feel like the Canucks might lose this one before turning things around on Sunday.
  8. Can you be a little more specific on which team belongs to which score for me?
  9. Posting early as I know I won't have time on the weekend. Predict the winner and the score - (6pts for both, 1pt for just the winner) Bonus question - Which player scores the game winning goal? (1pt) My predictions: Canucks (finally) win 4-2 Virtanen with the GWG Good luck and Go Go!
  10. I really thought they were going to win that one. Congrats to @Baggins, @Maddogy, @Hairy Kneel & @Lazurus for knowing better. An extra shout out to @Baggins for correctly predicting back-to-back games. I was planning on being at this next game, before my dog spent all of my money at the vet... Predict the winner and the score - (6pts for both, 1pt for just the winner) Bonus question - Which team takes more shots? (1pt) Bonus bonus question - Which player takes the most shots? (1pt) Updated leaderboard: Updated 2nd half top ten: My predictions: Colorado wins 5 - 2 Colorado shoots more MacKinnon with the most shots Good luck and Go Go!
  11. Stecher seems to score a fair bit from right in front of the Canucks' net. Maybe he should try the same trick at the other end of the ice.
  12. You really shouldn't be making any more predictions at this point.
  13. I'm curious which teams will be on is 15-team no trade list next year. Since his pay will be less than his cap hit, maybe there is a deal that can be done with Florida who has told the GM to shed salary.
  14. That's my hope. I watched parts of the All-Star game and wasn't a fan of all the tracking crap they put on the screen. I found it distracting. But if they can perfect the tech and take the human element out of the blue line and the goal line, then I say it's a win.
  15. FYI - Detroit already has 48 contracts. You're only allowed 50.
  16. Hmmm... a thread by @aqua59 proposing to fire JB. aqua59... aquaman... Aquilini Seems suspicious.
  17. Yikes. We need to turn this thing around. Congrats to @ForzaTikare, @Dumb Nuck and @GarthButcher5 for correctly predicting the score of the Toronto game and @Baggins for the Columbus game. Hopefully a better result back home. Predict the winner and the score - (6pts for both, 1pt for just the winner) Bonus question - Which team scores first? (1pt) Bonus bonus question - Which player gets the first goal? (1pt) Updated leaderboard: Updated 2nd half top ten: My predictions: Canucks win 4 - 2 Coyotes score first Keller with the first goal Good luck and Go Go!
  18. Keeping it simple due to the back-to-back games. Predict the winner and the score - (6pts for both, 1pt for just the winner) Bonus question - Which player scores the game winning goal? (1pt) I'll have updated leaderboards from the weekend games on Monday. My predictions: Columbus wins 4 - 2 Nyquist with the GWG Good luck and Go Go!
  19. I watched the same interview. The long term impact he was referring to was the playoffs. He made the comment that the risk of resting players could result in the team dropping out of first place. The difference with the Canucks is that a couple of points could be the difference between making the playoffs or not, and clearly, it is their goal to make the playoffs this year. The Bruins simply have more breathing room than the Canucks.
  20. It's so common though. People expect Wi-Fi to be magic and just go everywhere. They often don't realize how much the things in their home (walls, appliances, duct work, chimneys, etc.) all block and degrade the signal. Plus, as the power and bandwidth of the modems increases, the range decreases. And in a case like yours, in a campus residence, you probably have to contend with wireless saturation on top of it.
  21. The other problem could be the metal siding and roof on the pool house. WiFi doesn't like to go through those types of materials. Full disclaimer: I am a former TELUS technician. You say you have TELUS Optik TV, but do you have a wireless TV box? Do you know which model of modem you have? Depending on your setup, it could be as simple as moving your modem or wireless access point closer to your pool house.
  22. The way I have been predicting lately, this should guarantee the Canucks a win.
