  1. Does anyone remember the Canuck who alleged that Keenan threw a skate at? I'm sure that guy has a few players looking for revenge. Or, did the player throw the skate at Keenan?
  2. A poster (RobZepp) that used to frequent this board once said, he heard through different scouts that Lind might never be an NHL'er. I think this kid is trying to prove them all wrong.
  3. My son and I met him at the pre game skate, in Toronna on our Canuck road trip, he and Mason Raymond did a meet and greet. One of those Canuck moments you never forget.
  4. He was too old two years ago....I don't understand what the Flames saw in him, but, they knew enough to let him go. JM, is getting back into a zone.
  5. Those bridges only affected Surrey, and all points East. As well, Maple Ridge and that area. Most of those folks have to commute over bridges into the City, therefore penalizing them to get to and from work. We could argue about which bridge or road should be tolled, but, until a transit system is in place for all of us, we'll be discussing this until the cows come home. Would a road/bridge toll work for the entire Lower Mainland? 50 cents a zone, which would be determined by boundaries, or landmarks. I have no idea how many vehicles are on the road daily, but would that not generate revenue to get transit to all communities? I'm glad these workers are getting pay increases, they have a job, I would never want. This is good news for Greater Vancouver, the last strike went on for months.
  6. Pretty much all you said. Peters, has probably coached his last game in the NHL. The fact that he got over 100 games with the Flames is more incredible. How did this not come out in the vetting process? This incident could really take a run down the rabbit hole as well. Wasn't Ron Francis the GM in Carolina when Peters was there? How was all this missed?
  7. The only Canuck that was playing with any passion last night was Demko. The entire team was flat, out of sync, and the score flattered the effort if not for Demko. On to the Penguins, it's a looooooooooooooooooooong season. Goldobin isn't the answer folks.
  8. Not many goals are scored on the rush anymore. It's how the game plays out. Line rushes in practice are a lot different than game situations. Line changes, short handed situations, player fatigue, all play into a goal scored on the rush. Goals at even strength aren't the same as goals on the rush, because the two very seldom take place. Sadly the game is all about pp opportunities.
  9. As soon as I saw this check, I said 5 and a game. Kerfoot probably got off light by actually giving a *&it for hitting his former team mate, but man that is getting into a career ending/life changing situation where this hit took place. Both going full speed and right on the back.
  10. Awesome news, but watch those critics in Utica say they need a center, not a winger!
  11. I listen to Classic Vinyl on Sirius Radio, and every once in a while, actually very often, they play Lynnard Skynnard (sp), who I loathe! Soft rock vs Classic, there is no comparison, but don't tell my wife, she hates yelly music as she calls it.
  12. Very true! Not a bad game so far, and the halftime show was as good as the SuperBowl.
  13. TSN gave the CFL a boatload of cash. They have the broadcast rights to the league. Thus no CBC!
  14. I’m not  C&W fan, but that might have been the best Grey Cup half time show, EVER!

      It felt first rate/all star versus amateur.  Really good stuff.

  15. Yes, he is, four games is a slap on the wrist. The next one could be a career ender on someone.
  16. Bortuzzo should be given an axe, the guy has a history of this crosschecking in the back stuff. Someone is going to miss more than 4 games if he keeps this crap up!
  17. Did I miss anything about Kerfoot? He deserves a phone call at least.
  18. Best post in this thread....All of you folks that bash the bands or groups from the 60's and 70's, well guess what, they outsell anyone and anything current.
