  1. They're smart if they ease him in(first month slowly). Might assist in holding onto an extra asset.
  2. Yes..the sarcasm meter indicates they REALLY don't want to hear about a log-jam in say, the top-5 prospects. That Duch-deal will be equivalent to the Kessel-fiasco. Funny how it always seems to be Cdn teams spoon-feeding top picks down south.
  3. A colourful cornucopia of colloquialisms. So chunky, I dined with a fork...
  4. Of course it's common knowledge amongst folks, with even a room temp IQ. But for a Congressman/woman to bring it up in a speech on the house floor, was, according to Zerohedge, "rare & unprecedented." Kudos to this woman of integrity, I say.
  5. Just read on Zerohedge(saw Utube vid) that Hawaiian Congresswoman called out Trump/Pence, for their hypocisy in Syria. Protecting the Al Quaeda types(20~40,000) as their day of reckoning closes in, in the Northern city of Idlib. Takes serious balls for this lady to speak so strongly vs the interests of the deep state. If even 10% of the world's elected officials had these kinda guts, we'd all be livin in freeken'ShangriLa.
  6. Ben Hutton & Aqua go to Kit's Beach...

     

    Throw down a blanket, & picnic basket fulla' sammy's.

     

    "Hey Ben, let's kick back & talk some hockey..y'know, the room, more rooks, & the whole darn coachin' staff, eh?..."

     

    This might be the equivalent of that Bizarro Ottawa-production. Can't believe more folks aren't doubled over laughing at this one.

     

    On HFBoards(Ottawa page) there's 20 + pages of aghast-fandom. Some pretty funny comments, gotta' say.

     

    Holy-smokes, is Melnyk outa' touch with reality!

      I thought the 12 Tweets of Linden was bad, but Melnyks video makes me feel better.

      @Jimmy McGill That almost has an Xmas-ring to it, eh? I hope this means the EK deal gets done. Them poor Sens-backers need another topic.

       

      Did you watch this debacle(full 5 mins!)?..would love to hear your analysis

  7. TYPHOON-Tuesday!!!

     

    Just blew thru Osaka. Destroyed the panels on our 2nd floor patio. Eegads..never seen wind like that. Neighbours roof flew away. More debris flying about(parking lot outside) than rumours, in a girls' jr high hallway.

    Saw a lil' bird frantically flapping yet traveling backwards..Mother Nature on 'roids...

      and now an earthquake , stay safe. 

  8. Sure hope the Syrian war doesn't flare up this wknd..lots of Russian(RT) reports that the west is preparing a false flag chemical-farce, to use as pretext. Iran, Saudis, Israel, Syria, Russia, USSA..there's so many players, & assorted agendas/tripwires Seemorerocks.com has lots of updates. PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. Could be our version of Zucc. A rare, invasive lil' species(unbeknownst for origin) that causes stress & high heart rate, when afflicted. He's absolute AM..& the early bird gets the worm!
  10. Ditch the skate, & tilt the logo. It'll look like pelting rain. Gimmee some truth.
  11. BE PREPARED!!!

     

    Lots of quakes going on folks.

    Dutchsinse(youtube quake guy) claims it emanates from a DEeeep 8.2 in west Pacific.

    Keep hard hats on, & a plan/bag ready to roll.

      Pretty disturbing visuals. 

      But Ed is hilarious.

  12. Glad you've highlighted Dutchsinse's youtube site. This bloke's brilliant(very informative)..perhaps controversial in methodology(?..hard to say); but appears to me, quite the pioneer in the science of earthquake forecasting. Today he has a feature on the Venezuela 7.3 quake. LOTS of Pacific Rim activity recently folks..50+ quakes of 4.5, + over a wk or so. Best to keep a bug-out bag(tasty vittles, H2O) stored in a handy place.
  13. Heartily agree, PB. Also noticed(just now) that @Warhippy referenced this crime in the Saudi thread. Shout out to that Okanagan lad. I've grown increasingly disillusioned with the 'modern world' we've set up. To make it even more galling, once respected mass media sources(like Gerald Celente says of NYT.."The toilet-paper, of record!") only serve as a veil to deceive & discombobulate us unwashed masses. I've posted a lot of anti-western diatribes, over the yrs. I've also had many shiny(rather new) computers go kaput. Should it all disappear today..I'd just read books or go hiking.. I can take it or leave it. But it wouldn't surprise me if we some day discover the degree to which dissenting voices are marginalized/minimized amap. Spidey senses activate increasingly Orwellian-warnings. So lastly, I wonder if our net-hobbies reduce us to mere ostriches..heads stuck in dirty data of passionate pastimes? There are a lot of agendas at play, but soon I suspect the crap hits the fan. In Japan, the oppressive summer heat is almost past, & my house-sentence almost served. Think I'll revisit my plans for a lengthy break. Take it easy, man.
  14. Has anyone(on CDC) mentioned the bus full of school kids, bombed & killed in Yemen last wk?(about 50 p, ferGawdsakes!) ****in Saudis. With US weapons, of course. Good thing Trump took part in that 'sword dance' thingy, to keep the relationship strong. Hockey's important..but is the avg NA'n sports fan always oblivious to western hypocrisy? Wearin' me down, as I hit middle age...
  15. A- the kids are very good ..8 players/48 mill AAV (avg 6 mill per young stud) B- The kids are Brilliant! ..7 players/49 mill AAV (avg'd to 7 mill a dude) To me, the crystal ball winds up with these two scenarios. Either way, we gotta' pay, if these kids can play!
  16. Everyone blames the Willie for something, it seems...
  17. The Beatles in Hamburg yrs...

     

    That's probably where the Canucks are, right about now. Just before the plane REALLY takes off.

     

    Maybe they should all grow mop-tops, act corny, & change arena title to The Cavern Club!

     

    Y/N?

      @johngould21 Yeah, they played(on & off, about 1960~63? stints in Hamburg, Germany), then returned a lot more polished, to entertain their hometown..mostly at the Cavern, I believe.

       

      I guess George was too young for the first couple trips.

       

      Sutcliffe(John's buddy) died there..brain hemorrhage. Was it after they were jumped by thugs?(read that somewhere)

       

      & Pete Best would go on to the WORST luck of any white man in this world's history. Man, ya gotta feel for that guy!

      @NewbieCanuckFan

      You gotta know Ghosts is more of the suave Bryan Ferry type, who likes the old classics.

       

      Who's our Mal Evans(tough hombre, roadie)?..we should all appreciate for spotting 'The Ivey's', who they'd go on to sign to Apple, & re-name, Badfinger(awesome band!)

      hey @NewbieCanuckFan you dont like my girl yoko …..thats it I quit.   edit ...she wont cause any  problems ...I promise.  can I come back.

  18. Having a bunch of buds(similarly aged) that mesh well, prob plays a bigger role than we all realize. They all seem like pretty good blokes. Hopefully some take 10~20% cuts(negotiating deals) to keep the core intact.
  19. I realize we're just throwing around silly speculation-numbers, but you're up to about 75 mill/15 guys. Hopefully our books are clean of all hassles(eg: Luongo thing)
  20. Reminds me of the scores I gave ex-gf's(outa 10)! Ya start low & monkey-branch high as possible :^)
  21. We can probably get Tram signed a couple yrs cheaply, since he's laying low in the gulag. By then we might be at war with the Russkies(who knows?!), due to dodgy dossiers by Hillarity & the gang. The best persuasion for NT is if our team is rolling with talented youth.
  22. Four yrs on, & all kids storm outa' the gate... Petterson - 8 Brock - 7.5(pipe dream?) Hughes - 7 Demko - 6 Bo - 5.5(Thanks Bo!) OJ - 5 Jake - 4.5 Gaudette - 4.5(say other C's limit his offense..does he have the humble character to accept scenario? Probably) 8 young, key guys coming into prime yrs Total - 48,000,000 AAV Hopefully the cap keeps climbing higher. Since JB has emphasized good character with these kids, would say it's quite possible they'll find the ways to make the numbers work.
