      Nikita, we need'ja so?

      I guess that's why they call it the blues?

      GYBR???

  2. If greed wins the day and the NHL expands to 36 teams. That might be it for me. I see nothing but disaster with that. Short term gain for long term headaches. And Vancouver will never win a cup.

    4 teams with the generous expansion rules? It will destroy existing teams rosters.

      Early 90's I started getting very p***ed off with the league's direction.

       

      My suspicions have long borne out; particularly after they brought in that nefarious, sneaky lil' weasel at NY hindquarters.

       

      Always LOVEd hockey..hate what they've done to the league itself.

  4. It’s only a matter of time before a new thread about a certain location of Tim Hortons in Burnaby that has egg laying insects pops up with an updated story from The Outhouse Times.

  5. 32 years ago today Pavel Bure arrived in North America to play for the Vancouver Canucks.

      Recall them storming outa' the gate, that season. When Pavel finally arrived, it was mayhem!

  6. So fortunate to be from a family of fishermen. This week eating fresh wild spring and sockeye salmon. Soooo good!

      Enjoy it thoroughly Deb, before these tainted Fukushima waters completely poison the big pond.

       

      Certainly beyond my pay-scale; but sure hope these scientific yahoos know WTH they're all doing.

      Big chunk of the 1970's nostalgia, gone right there.

       

      But there's a bloke who certainly lived life to the FULLEST! RIP Mr Buffett

  8. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe....

  9. If you could have any d-man in the NHL to partner with Hughes, who would be your pick?

    1. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      That Seider kid would make a nice tandem, wouldn't he?

  10. Alf feels sorry for the Habs. The history of the Gorton/Hughes duo for drafting in round one is bad. Every pick is a bustaroo! Lafreniere, Anderson, Kravtsov, Chytl, and now Slafkoski and Reinbacher. Are these two guys the worst at the draft ever? 

  11. Just met/had a lovely chat with iMac in Tim Horton's (of course it was there...hockey door handles!). He's as nice as he seems. I was quite thrilled to meet him as he's my favourite of all the people who cover the team.

      Have always had time for IMac's take. Hope you splurged a timbit for his thoughts!

  12. Happy "JT MILLER AIN'T GOING ANYWHERE" day! Woo!

      Between him & Bo, would say they made the right call. He adds elements we really need.

  13. Canucks select the defenceman with the highest upside in this draft, Tom Willander, a mean piece of business, who is right handed. They fill a very big positional need

  14. Daily Hive reporting Ray Ferraro in the mix to be John Garrett's replacement. I would totally support that. It is important to have someone in the position who played the game at the NHL level and Ferraro is always worth a listen on the talk shows. He works between the benches so I wonder if he would do that with Shorty in the booth, or if he'd be in the booth with Shorty.

      Woman was such a legend. Wonder how ol' Bryan Adams feels? They had a super hit together.

      You DON'T commit to a passionate player like JTM, then do a 180 on the guy, succumbing to Laff-fantasies.

       

      They'd better get over their JT-envy, just cos' their version is a dud!

  20. Stupid question. Forgone conclusion that regardless who drafts Connor Bedard he's playing in the NHL next year?

  21. Wow. Zdeno Chara just finished the Boston Marathon under 4 hours. Damn.

      So the daft stimulator is more real than whoever picks Bedard?! groovy

      Sorry Ghosts, I'm already there & things like mass media, big Guv & banks are but an endless joke.
