      Luck is just the perception of chance. Chance and probability exist, whereas luck is made up like a social construct to explain things that seem unfathomable.

      not if it is falling at the time, while supporting a can of white paint. if the paint is green, you can pretend your part of the grass. hard to white wash it any other way. cheers chonsy.

  4. Thanks Rupert, I'd seen Twittish-quotes from eco-bigwig, McKibben & Swedish press-Princess, Thunberg. Also had seen an article from RT In truth, I spend little time with MSM, & don't really know what they're saying anymore. To me, their societal-betrayal got to a point of no return(many yrs back), & there were too many alternate sources to gather info one desires.
  5. Verhojansk, Russia(Arctic, Yakutia region) Anyone heard of it? Just set a record on June 20th of 38 degrees C!(highest ever temp in Arctic). Also now hold the record for greatest temp-swing. -68 degrees to +37 C. In Farenheit that's -90 to +98 !!! Imagine swinging almost 200 F between seasons! MSM is so busy with garbage updates of what they call 'news', these important matters seem to just kinda slip by, unannounced. Read yest the fires up there(Siberia) are already getting outa' control. Top part of the world is a blast-furnace. All that methane up there..you'd think it's(a little) newsworthy?!?!
  6. Hypothetical scenario: league grants a buyout per team. Bye LouiE. After further moves, we've got a decent whack of cap. The CBJ GM(Hannikainnamannan?) whatever his handle, calls. They've got the major hots for EP. For EP & Stech, they offer... Seth Jones & PLD. Personally, don't think I would. EP is our golden kid, absolute beaut. But can't deny, I really like these 2 great Jackets players, thus figured it's a fair question. Kinda curious how highly everyone values our Swedish star, so would like to see replies. Pls don JB's hat for this astonishing ph call... No tweaks..& NO!, I don't want to deal our star(for any reading-impaired). I hope EP stays his career in Van!
  7. I've seen other Van fans mull this option lately..sacrilege? I don't know... To balance our fwds/cap hits/line-depth, it seems pretty reasonable. We have so much talent arriving(soon) on RW; if TT signs, really think it's our best position to sell from.
  8. Are folx arguin' over imaginary-visions? Cos' I'd like to possibly throw in MY 2 Yen... :^)
  9. Fine & dandy..but they'd damnwell better not steal another rising Cdn franchise to drop into another US market!
  10. Agreed..these numbers look pretty sketchy. Unbelievable they claim markets like FLO & Desert Mutts have higher attendance than the Sens. Prob giveaway prices in them markets, as well.
  11. ...& it BADly burned my bacon to a charred crisp! edit: I also remember Bure getting tossed(mid-series game) for boarding; yet players like the #11 Rag a**hole could pull off any stunt, carte blanche
  12. Y'wood think it'd be pretty poplar, eh?
  13. Are today's reports the final nails for this COVID cough-in? Don't look good. & has anyone pondered a 19 yo draft, within the NHL ivory towers?
  14. It's debatable, but they are deciduous.
  15. All 22 of these guys were drinkin' in Greeley's privately owned tavern(3rd on list)..they were plannin' a hootin' & hollerin' pursuit of prospects, & then in walked Munny...
  16. @gurn I'm with you on being allergic to all this crap. Check my flip-phone once or twice a wk..f**k it. Why would companies go to the ends of earth to track customer heartbeats(sorry, just skimmed the article)? My guess is the Orwellian pr*cks in charge will justify/force-feed this tripe thru the commercial angle, then deviously convert it's usage to a more surveillance & nefarious purpose(even moreso than they've already!), when the ptb want even more societal-control. In my youth I was quite a free-spirit & outgoing, but this tech love-in(& sheep herding) is seemingly designed to show one the beauty of becoming a reclusive introvert.
  17. OTTAWA SUN publishes apology to Melnyk/Sens. Just heard about this, was mostly out for the day. How many times have I complained on this site over contemporary, wh*ring, disingenuous media? Goes back over a decade. Here's the latest prime example. The original post of this very thread(15 mos. back), was viewing the Sens situation through the prism of today's bs-press. It's become predictably tedious & manipulative. They're in such a rush nowadays to be first(MSM) to any slagging morsel/tidbit, journos can't slow down to get the facts straight. If I were an owner, would sue the A** off these clowns, after they lazily reached for (what appeared) the low-hanging fruit. Looks good on 'em.
  18. Here's another bump of an old fav. It's time again for a lil' team-positivity. Yeah..we have a pending cap-crunch, & some hard decisions soon arrive. But I bet 10-15 teams have cap/personnel probs at their doorstep. The COVID-mayhem has made every darn thing feel like a gambling crap-shoot. There's just too much whining, that pops up too frequently(mostly on cap/potential asset-loss). Consider the Blue Jackets as an example. Went all-in, Spring 2019(kept Bob, acquire names like Dzing & Duch, win a lousy 1 round). Imagine how many assets they prob squandered within a few short months. If JB rolled dice to such degree, what would the masses/media do to him? Perish the thought. It's simply too disproportionate, in our puck-obsessed market. At a certain point, it likely works against our team, by undermining the players/FO to go all-in, for fears of blow-back if any season's plans run adrift. Love our fanbases's enthusiasm & passion; but the skepticism, bashing & cynicism needs an equal measure of patience, balance & reasonable optimism. JMHO.
  19. Whoa..that's my kinda team! Interesting ideas man
