  1. That’s the grey area. https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/hockey/news/islanders-richard-panik-loaned-out-of-organization/ Panik is out of the NHL loaned out to a Swiss team, which means he’s useless to me, more than usual. The question is, can I take him off my minor roster, if his contract expires this year in CDCGML and is unavailable to me, as per his loan to Switzerland? @Mike Vanderhoek
  2. That opens up me for asking if Panik going to the Swiss League is fine too.
  3. A Ukraine vs Russia themed game would be phenomenal.
  4. I’d say it was more due to climate change. The northern ocean around the Strait may be ticking up in temperature moving the crabs further North, or simply not procreating as much or there’s a large die-off event, or a combo of all three. In any case, the world has been warned that Climate Change is real, it’s coming like a freight train, and it will affect more things that scientists can predict. This is just one. Although fish die off was predicted. A lot of guys are gonna lose their boats and livelihoods.
  5. And it’s not a huge number that Sig and Jake are reeling in. I have the Alaska fisheries are going to crash for a few years. It’s not these boats that are overfishing but those huge corporate trawlers that basically vacuum up most of the crab out there. The crab have been moving deeper and more northerly. I had Alaskan King crab legs a couple weekends ago. It was more expensive than ever, but man, soooo good.
  6. Fair point. if you wanted the best duo ever( in my time) would have to be Gretzky/Messier and Crosby/Malkin. Yzerman/Federov right up there. For the Nucks, I don’t think it gets better than Nazzy/Bertuzzi, Gradin/Smyl, Sundstrom/Tanti. I’m forgetting others of course. Sedin/Sedin! Those two were also ridiculously record breakers.
  7. Did you expect the Brett Hull and Adam Oates crowd to chime in? Many of these boys and girls were kids, not even born nor a twinkle in their daddy’s ballsack. Two of the best tandems ever. Love the reference though. That was a different NHL. The good ol’ days.
  8. See boys. This is what’s is all about. Understanding others. We may not agree with people, but we listen, think and then give our thoughts. I can’t give a shit about your opinion and you don’t give a shit about mine or others, but at least here on CDC, we just respect and say whatever we think.
  9. Attach yourself. Nothing wrong about that. This is ‘our’ team. There’s people that have generations of their families attached to their team, and they never wavered. Their support only became stronger. Supporting a team isn’t year to year. It’s a lifelong process. It’s saying “this is my team through thick and shit and glory” We’re there for all of it. ‘We’ make the team. The team will come and go as players, but it’s us that make the team survive. Never forget that. Never forget that our support drives this car.
  10. We weren’t ‘duped’ bud. I remember the boys from 2014. I was a kid when we had Tanti and Smyl. I remember the REAL bad days. The 80’s when I was 5 years plus were the worst ever. As a little kiddie I would sit in front of the piece of crap teevee on Saturday to see the team lose, while on my dad’s big belly. We watched them together on the Chesterfield, that’s what he called a couch back in the olden times. He still watched us getting blown out and then watch the playoff and the best team win. We got screwed by the Flames and Oilers a lot. I remember those dark ass days. They sucked. Our team isn’t that bad yet. This team is 3 games into this slide. I stayed a Nucks Supporter since then. Can you say you support them more than me ? If not, then try.
  11. ‘Boys and girls’, If we lose, keep your ‘chin up’ always. Your strength doesn't come from winning. It comes from struggles and hardship. Everything that you go through prepares you for the next level. - Germany Kent.
  12. Scrutiny is something I support and totally agree with. My Lord and Baby Jesus Christ, there’s some scrutiny that needs to be said from the fanbase and the team itself about this current team. But why lose heart’? Just us fans talking. Are we going to be so fickle and without ‘heart’ for the team that we either were born with, grew up with, immigrated into, and sadly, died with? We definitely have questions and deserve answers and change. But, we also need to be steadfast in our unity as ‘Canucks United’. Good or bad. Thick or thin. That’s just us.
  13. He’s allowed softies now and then. The highlight saves he’s made over the last 3 years alone gives him that leeway. Demmer is the best since Lui. We’re lucky to have him.
  14. Right now it’s a piece of shit team play. Piece of shit PP. Piece of shit Defending. Piece of shit effort. But, don’t be a piece of shit fan for losing your faith after 3 games. The team needs to trade for Defence. That’s a known. Until that. Keep your support going. Our collective support is what binds us together. It keeps us as ‘us’. ‘Keep it together’ boys and girls.
  15. Rather they not produce and defend? Right now unfortunately it’s one or the other. So critique them or at least acknowledge them? Which one?
  16. One game bud. He’s the only one we hang our hats on. No one deserves any critique but Demmer. He’s allowed to have bad games and bad goals without criticism. He’s literally the only player allowed it.
