  1. We've kicked this stuff around on CDC before..namely bogus media. I'd say a discerning(healthily skeptical) reader should always ask him/herself..Why are they telling me this? next problem: There's PLENTY they're not(nor likely will ever) be telling you. One needs to seek out more sources, particularly from the opposing philosophical side(s). But then, time is money, & many folks are simply too busy/tired for such pursuit. ************************* Yesterday the Duran had a brilliant 42 min discussion on the new gas pipeline(Russia/China), & related biz, illustrating how the economy is shifting in this Eurasian sphere. The geopolitical/economic implications are very significant, & it's certainly worthy of analysis. Global citizens simply Deserve to know WTF is going on in the world, if we're truly in "free, DEMOCRACIES!", as the *$$holes rigging the deck have long claimed. But no. 5 or 6 elites shall control almost all significant media conglomerates, & they'll force-feed us tripe about SJW's, or protesting t**** llama farmers, fighting for all of us in some Peruvian village. ...Thanks, but I'll wipe m'arse with whatever is printed in the west today(net sites, about the same)
  2. Scenario: Edler is back(rested, 100%) in January. Whoever filled in for him in Dec(say, Fanta & Brise), both looked good. They can handle a 5, 6 slot, late-season. Benn tries a few games on RH-side, & looks solid. We get confirmation(quietly) that Tree is returning in March. ** ^If these things happened^ ** I'd look to deal Tanev in Jan, Feb. Either a 1st, or 2nd/solid prospect. Also Stecher is possible, although just one or the other.
  3. That was quite the hip-check.
  4. Just Love their show..is about all I can add here. Strongest endorsement.
  5. It's an almost daily source, I've long enjoyed on Utube(Bitchute, as well). The Two Alexes, are absolutely brilliant(Christoforou & Mercouris). The older chap speaks with an elite, stodgy, proper Brit accent; but has a wealth of knowledge, peppered with an arsenal of brilliant vocab, to both illuminate & educate. The younger fellow I believe was raised in a Greek ambassadorial family; intl knowledge, & an excellent interviewer. Frequently I've seen these blokes on RT(apparently chums of P Lavelle). They're usually harshly critical of western policy, but back it up with important info, derived from hard facts. They delve into financial, political & geopolitical matters of import. Line your birdcage with the dailies, & turn off that F***in' TV! The Duran will keep you well-informed.
  6. Do the Laffs get SMOKED tonite, by the upstart Avs? 6-0, I'll guess

     

    Just hope their grinders score, & that D rookie does d-squat.

      In b4 the Nichushkin fans say we should have drafted Val before Bo. 

    2. Wilbur

      Wilbur

      Guy behind me in the pool has MacKinnon and Makar.  3-1 was a fine result :P

  7. Is smart $ an oxymoron, when globally, there's(supposedly..it's likely understated) 220,000,000,000,000 in Dumb Debt?!
  8. Over on HF the C-deficiency, crying matter is being cranked up, once again. At a point now I don't care WHERE the farm is! Anywho, go Comets go!
  9. Love it..starting to tumble again. Honeymoon period was a shorty, eh Keefe? Only 1 game above .500, & apparently Avs & Blues are coming next. Oh, & Marner coming back? Cap-attack, gotta' WAIVE a line of stiffs.
  10. I was out this morn & missed the first 38 mins of game. Very happy to see all the names that nabbed a snipe! Now it's a tough choice: read fun comments here, or go look at the Fleas tire-fire on HF Pgt?! :^)
  11. Yes folks, he was a guy we Really Needed!

  12. Gaudette's reply^ alerted me to this earlier post. So glad you chimed in on this, Rekker. Bet it's the vibe/sentiment for 99.9% of Van fans. So tired of this mealy-mouthed, ingratiating, self-serving attn-wh*re. Who the hell has time for his oblivious monologues? How the hell did this schmoe last so long on the boob tube anyways? There's the door, MacLean. Shoulda' walked out with yer pal, (if the guy had even a shred of dignity remaining).
  13. Perhaps this could be the game where he fully emerges, & EXPLODES on the scene?! ************************* Gotta say, missing Vancouver this morn. This is one day I'd really like to be out there, in that beautiful town. Enjoy it y'all. GCG!
  14. One will be GM, & the other, a western "scout"(lots of vacay time). They secretly alternate the gigs on even/odd days, and/or wks. Already mapped this out, so a guarded secret(keep it under the cap, eh). Pay Brackett handsomely to assist in this ultimate op. JB can leisurely enjoy a light sched after a few Cups!
  15. Darn injuries keep piling up, we might have to remember the quality of the 2020 Draft class.
  16. Heard this was staged & JG Pageau was wearing a Groucho Marx get-up. Seriously this Boro guy is improving his image..wasn't it he who pulled that BS judo-throw on poor old Derek Dorsett? I hope he properly apologized..but yeah, he's a pretty tough, grinding D-vet.
  17. Hy-phens are tricky-biz..I won't cast-i-gate a guy for 'dat! Also tired of PITB moaning about the local team. So I'm very Biased :^)
  18. It's a fair analysis. I'll sit back now with popcorn, for interested what they do leading up to TDL.
  19. They're speeding down Brutal Hwy, as we speak. Blow it up. Start over. & as I told you last season, next should be Price to Cowtown. These two contracts are SILLY on a roster that requires gutting, & deeeep down, I trust you know that!
  20. Except for 1 team, I generally cheer for Cdn squads vs their US counterparts. Edm has to start aggressively trying to win/compete hard now; whereas Mtl should blow it up, like the Coil, Fleas(3, 4 yrs back) & more recently, Sens, have done. Exciting prospects(extra picks) is one way to keep fans interested. Bergevin's gambles/contracts are now blowing up in his face. Make these kinda' deals(below), & PUNT the guy back to some privileged US market. HABS: Weber(retain 1 mill x forever), Max Domi, Armia Cap hit: about 12.5 million EDM: Ryan Hannibal-Hopkins, Larsson, Gagner, Evan Bouchard cap: 13.2 million 2020 2nd, 2021 2nd(change to 1st, if RNH walks to UFA status) Mtl can turn this into 3 1st's & 2 2nds, if they flip the two good players acquired. It's time for them to bite the bullet, & go all-in on a proper rebuild. Also this yr's roster will sink into bottom-5 range, for the ballyhooed 2020 draft in their barn. Coilers would be somewhat terrifying, adding this vet D & depth-scoring. Imagine their PP?! Neal - McDavid - Drai Klefbomber - Weber ..that would be ugly
  21. Incredibly harsh..but wonderfully apropos meme for the chicken littles, who constantly drop such grenades in various streams of thread-conversations.
  22. Just saw Ferland *LTIR* on capfriendly.

     

    Keep him there until late Jan/early Feb, would be smart.

    1. JM_

      I think teams are allowed to do this retroactively so not sure it means a longer stay on IR for Ferkie. He's in a non-contact jersey now. 

    2. Pears

      Pears

      ^Yep. This was just to allow us to get Chatfield up and stay cap compliant. 

    3. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      Just get him to say, "Yeah, still dizzy with light headaches, after workouts."..& continue saying this until late Jan.

       

      It gives him more time to rest up(esp his noggin) for the grueling spring wars. If other big salaries have to go LTIR, he can always come back a little sooner.
