  1. You didn’t need to start this one either. It’s being discussed in his waivers thread..... We have no money to sign him. We won’t make the playoffs. He is clearly on a decline. No
  2. Damn. Toronto making some smart moves. I wonder how much space they have now? They are making a big push this year
  3. I’ve had a day to think about it. My thought now are, Boooooooooooo Same as yesterday I guess. Players like that can be found dime a dozen. He is a declining tweener, leaning on the lower side. This contract sucks.
  4. This just pushed me over. I genuinely thought JB was done with these deals. I have been a supporter, but no more. FIRE JIM BENNING! He continues to hamper this team, and it looks like he’s not gonna stop.
  5. Booooooooooo Couldn't be more disappointed. How has he not learned his lesson signing declining vets to long term, over payed contracts? 5$ says there is a ntc as well.
  6. I was at that show! I’m good friends with the drummer and frontman. I just so happened to be in Victoria both times they played Logan’s. Once with a bunch of girl punk bands, and another with The Corps, Contra Code, and I think an island punk band https://anteaterpunkbc.bandcamp.com https://thecorps.bandcamp.com https://contracode.bandcamp.com
  7. If he is looking at 3mill, that’s gonna be a hard pass for me. He isnt a top 6 (shouldn’t be). That’s a lot to pay for a third liner. Hopefully Jim has learned his lesson with over paying aging bottom 6 players...... Id give him $2.5 max for 2 years at most.
  8. Anyone here into the Vancouver punk scene? There are a dozen HIGH quality bands coming from our town. Ive spent the last 15 years of my life touring and recording with punk, metal, and rock bands...... and to be totally honest, a couple here in Van are right up there with some of the best. The Corps- For a Fat Wrek style pop punk AntEater- 90’s skatepunk/hardcore. I think they broke up, but easily one of my favs. Contra Code- Technical shreddy punk. Awesome. Aanthems- Heart and soul rock and roll. Just two brothers. One on bass, one drummer. Both sing. They are straight up amazing people and musicians. Check it Foo! I’ll send you links if you want....
  9. I don’t know why I haven’t been more active in this thread. You guys are speaking my language. Ive toured and worked with a lot of the bands you are talking about! Have any of you listened to PEARS? Their album that came out in 2020 was probably the best punk release of the year. A beautiful mix of old school punk, hardcore, new age technical drumming, and the front man is one of the best in the game.
  10. it makes plenty of sense. I two years those contract will be gone Sure. Eriksson has been a huge helper in developing the kids. Sutter only plays half a season. Beagle hasn’t been a disaster. That was the joke...... Maybe you’ll get this... you dog gets sick and accidentally poops in front of the door at night. Do you hate that dog now? No, the dog has brought more good than a poop on the floor
  11. As someone who makes a living writing and recording music, yeah. Destroying lives. Not me personally, but I’ve been watching tons of young talented amazing people spiral downhill over the last year. Their lives are touring the world playing music and maybe sling beers at a bar when they are home. Both taken away. Have you not put any thought into the mental health issues this is creating for people? What about the new homeless? You make stupid conservative flat earth comments at me like I’m the idiot here, but you haven’t put a thought into all the people who no longer have a way to provide for their families. Cool dude. If Bonny Horgan were following science they would have acted swiftly and done the right thing. Not waddle around “walking the line”. All they are in this is for the public spotlight and votes for Horgan. They don’t care about you. Also, where was all the hate towards the old people when this was pretty much just retirement homes? Where was Horgan calling old Maybel and George a couple of jerks when they were getting it?
  12. Some people can take more than one thing in at a time and can process their own ideas....... Benning has taken an old garbage team and brought us a full cupboard and a great up and coming team. In a couple years when the crippling dog Pooh contracts Benning has signed are done, we are set up to be one hell of a team. Make sense? He has done an amazing job drafting and rebuilding this team. At the same time, he signed garbage contracts that are holding the team back this year and next. Seeing the changes he has made, as well as the Loui’s, I choose to side with being a Benning fan as opposed to a hater. You’re an oxymoron. Hahaha
  13. Much like the post I was responding too, your is jam packed full of assumptions. Where did I once mention I was anti science, covid, etc...... I didn’t. In fact, I mentioned those boneheads weren’t doing enough........ We should have been properly locked down and restricted long ago. And what do I care what the cons are doing? Ford is a total goof. Did you assume that I don’t like Horgan because I’m a right winger? I left Alberta for a reason. What anti science stuff did I spout? The high horse comments were “me and my family haven’t caught it, so obviously we are doing our part” or something stupid like that. Majority of people are following restrictions, and unless you locked yourself in your bedroom for the last year, you can get it. Im sorry for not liking Bonny Horgan and their flip flop management. If I ran my company like that, everyone would quit. So anyway, nice attempt at a flame job.
  14. First off, please tell me how Guadette caught covid. You made a big statement by saying they let their guard down. So how? Second, Horgan is an a hole. His statement the other day made him look like a total fool. Him and Bonny have completely destroyed these peoples lives. Taking away their ability to make a living, then not helping after that. Both of which are destroying their mental health, then blaming the spread on them..... You can go to the mall, go to school with hundreds of people, fly into and out of the country, go to work in construction, manufacturing, etc...... But we can’t have dinner with our spouses at a table together inside a restaurant...... These two wishy washy idiots with their fly by the seat of their pants plan is the problem. And lastly, get off your high horse.
  15. He didn’t say ‘core’ and let’s not act like Benning’s horrible UFA signings aren’t ruining our team....... Loui, Sutter, Beagle, Rousell, Baer, etc..... These 5 make up over 20 million and not a single one is even close to a positive contributor to this team. Each one was paid more than they were worth, and could have found cheaper and shorter termed players quite easily. He has done ok with RFA. The guys with zero negotiation power. Im a Benning fan, but let’s be honest. He has crippled this team.
  16. So Clark doesn’t get a choice? lol. So dramatic
  17. Salo and Lumme didn’t happen? No Heiskanen? Im almost certain I’ve watched Timonen, Lydmen, Pitkanen and a bunch others. hahahaha. You see what I’m getting at? Your opinion doesn’t mean anything when there are direct facts to prove you wrong. I think blood is really Clamato, and that’s what’s running through our bodies..........
  18. But you are though. That’s why people keep telling you that you are wrong. To have an opinion that goes against fact will get you a bunch of responses telling you that you’re wrong.
  19. Salo wasn’t 30 years ago. And what are you talking about, sensitive Sally? You were wrong.....
  20. I’d rather lose Jake to Seattle as opposed to someone who doesn’t suck.....
  21. Boo hoo. They aren’t coming out and fully explaining ‘the plan’. Why would they? So there is just more stuff for you to complain about when every aspect doesn’t go perfect? They don’t owe you a fully written out and explained copy of ‘the plan’ every year. Not everything always works out perfectly.
