Delving into Tullamore Dew, this moment..another first for this whisky-newbie. It's been a hard wk of disappointments, & there's times one needs a few drinks. Yesterday polished off a cheap bottle of bourbon with another Cdn ex-pat bud..just sitting at the park, drinkin' & yakkin'. It's civilized & reasonable..but I'm sure these freedoms are forever squandered back in God's country. Very hard to describe this flavour(the Tull Dew), but it's fairly mellow & smooth. I'd like to try a lot more of the Irish corner, but there's not much selection at the nearby shop. May have to cycle downtown Osaka & have a look around...

Do the Canucks make any significant trades this month?
Nuxfanabroad replied to Roberts's topic in Canucks Talk
Boeser to Mtl(they can flip him again, if they want). F*** it. We NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEd speed on the wings. The guy has concrete shoes. Lockwood, Bailey, & the 2 young bucks can all jockey for the 2 RW slots under Garland. It's high time - pull the trigger. -

& it seemed the top-8 were all recently gifting pts to our California rivals. Bettman's office is prob lovingly helping US networks set up their PO TV sched, early as possible. -
To be honest, have mostly avoided watching that Hab train wreck, this season. So don't know how bad this guy currently looks? He just put up 42 pts in 55 gp, 8 mos back. Don't see us accomodating BB's 7.5 mill qa, nor should we risk term there. Feel we've tied up too much coin in fwds that have been pop-gun, overall. With QH's dominant, skating, minute-munching style, could see a group of seasoned(& sizeable) D-vets complementing him nicely. During those 2, 3 yrs we build up a nice nucleus of ELC, d-youth. Should we perform well the next few months, there's likely enough cap space left to keep the rest of the fwd core(provided they accept reasonable AAV's)

Petry(retain 20%) & 2, 3rd r picks for Boeser & Poolman? OEL - Myers Hughes - Petry **** - Schenn Upgrade the last pair, LhD position at the TDL. Would be a vet-heavy D-core. They could hold the fort for a couple seasons, while we acquire lots of D-youth I bet Petry would vastly improve on a decent team.

Regarding Chiasson, it's a good news, bad news deal. The good? He's donning the 'C' tonite! Bad?.. they're taking it off his name-plate! :^( #controversyCHIA -

I had traded him 47x, but if he maintains recent form, we can all appreciate the TP-role!
