  1. Let’s not get carried away. Considering he is injured and probably not training super hard, I wouldn’t look too far into his weight gains. And for a kid that skinny, 15-20 pounds in 3 months is crazy. Don’t get your hopes up.
  2. Ahhhh pennywise. The dry, plain toast of the punk world. Hahah
  3. He broke his thumb, not wrist. Healing time was something like 3 weeks. He is already half way there. He will absolutely be ready in time and is going to have a nice long summer to train hard. I really like the idea of playing him with Eriksson. Loui is super solid defensively, and despite his crap production, he is a skilled guy and a great player. Could be a great mentor for our young Swede. Im stoked to see this kid come to camp at 175-180 and ready to go. 10-20 games to adjust, then watch out!
  4. I once got a week long suspension on cdc for calling someone a sheep. Hahahah
  5. This Thursday at the fortune sound club, there is an absolutely amazing punk show. PEARS is touring through town and being supported by two local punk rock powerhouses. Pears is a Fat Records band. They have toured with NOFX, strung out, Wilhelm scream, etc..... they are one of the best punk bands going right now. Opening is local punk favourites YOU BIG IDIOT. they are like NOFX but super silly and with an amazing live show. Every set they play they are in full costumes and character with a full skit behind the punk rock madness they bring. Next up is AntEater. One of the best bands in town. They are technical, fast as hell, rock solid metal break downs mixed with awesome late 90’s skatepunk. This is is going to be one of the best punk shows of the summer. Sure, it’s a Thursday, but who cares? amazing bands, great venue. What more can you ask for? Ill be stoked to see my old buddies in Pears again. I met them in Florida during a fest a couple years ago and have been hooked on the band since. Who wants to party??? Edit; I’m not in any of these bands, and not working for any promotion companies. Just really stoked on the show and like to share the word of great punk rock!
  6. No they weren’t. They didn’t win any elections. The majority of people are choked NDP has shown up and got this chance to screw our province again.
  7. This is incredible. Who said this? It doesn’t show the name
  8. No real 1st line (yet) and just lost 105 points on a team that struggles to score. No point replacement in sight (again, yet). It certainly was time, but are we ready? I doubt it. No replacements for the twins is a huge loss. I’d say they aren’t ready. And seeing how so many fans reacted to a losing season, when we all knew the team would suck, tells me Vancouver isn’t ready either. If if people thought this year was hard, wait until next.
  9. Obviously they aren’t what they used to be, and yeah it would have been great to see some different line ups. None of that means they have been bringing down the Canucks offence. They were again our top scorers (almost Hank). That isn’t being stagnant, and certainly wasn’t hurting our team. Sure teams knew how they played, but still couldn’t shut them down. Our problem is our top line isn’t a real top line (yet). And now we don’t have a second line. The only Sedin problem we have, is they are now gone and we aren’t ready for it.
  10. Lol Wut? They were so predictable that they stagnated our offence? Really? 105 points between the two of them in their retirement season. What the hell are you talking about stagnating? They didn’t slow down their own line offence, let alone the teams. People have no idea how much we are gonna be missing those two next year. We just lost a solid second line. Hahaha. Geeeez
  11. No. Just hopeful Canuck fans who don’t realize the contract is pretty much untradeable, and buyout proof.
  12. Why call him up right befor the playoffs? He needs to be with his team right now. There is zero point of calling him up right now, other than for fans to get a look at him. If you want a look, watch a comets game. Easy as that. The kid is busy. Leave him alone.
  13. Obviously. Subban was just a plain terrible dman. Lol
  14. Those players are few and far between. Being 5’7 is a total disadvantage in the NHL. I don’t know how you could even argue that. There are very small handful(pun intended) of people that small in the NHL. I will say, the league seems to be getting smaller, but 5’7” will never be a normal thing. You don’t even see many men walking around the street that short. It’s the same deal as Subban. I like the kid, and I hope he beats the odds, but I won’t be the least bit surprised if he doesn’t. There aren’t a lot of Theo Fluerys’ out there, but it would be pretty awesome.
  15. Just because you have the fight inside you, doesn’t mean you will be any kind of effective against a man that can easily physically dominate you. 6’4 220. 5’7 170. Im sorry but 9.8/10 that doesn’t look good for the little guy in the ice. I’m not saying the kid isn’t tough and doesn’t have the will, but that is a MAJOR disadvantage for the kid. Im rooting for the little guy, and he does seem to be a firecracker, but I’m not stoked about his odds.
  16. Love the cellys with this kid. Hilarious.
  17. Sick dangles. I can't wait to see this kid over here. 2-3 years from now when he has put on pounds, and fully adjusted to the North American game and rink size, he is going to be special to watch. Pretty stoked about his future.
  18. The WJC cut was the first thing I think of. It kicked him into overdrive big time. I'd say there is very little concern in how he will react to adversity.
  19. Listen to it here for free. Im sure it will have a link to their Facebook to find videos. https://thecorps.bandcamp.com/
  20. I'm friends with 3 of the guys in the Mackenzies. They play in a band called The Corps. Great band. All their songs are about comic books. Great lyrics, great punk
  21. You really need to lower your expectations. He will be good. Maybe great. But franchise? arguably top 3 player in the world? dude, that is crazy fanboy talk. Crosby, Malkin, McDavid, Tavares, P.Kane, etc...... all day hello. He will be a great canuck I'm sure, but you are going to be disappointed with those expectations
  22. McDavid is the fastest and quickest player on the ice 97% of the time. Big difference.
  23. ??? No. I said nothing like that. Lol. I'm saying they have a $&!#ty young team. On paper, they look pretty decent.
