  1. And as the wife saying goes, "Happy husband, happy shmusband."
  2. Yes, use Crosby as an example, top three or four player of all time. This thread is nothing but a cj for Benning haters.
  3. Such as create the drafting culture, creating the culture of character and compete, growing the close relationship with the farm team, letting Cloutier go and hiring Clark, rebuilding an entire team and prospect pool in only 7 years, and, yes, drafting an elite core at every important position with a potentially elite supporting cast? These sorts of managerial moves?
  4. Having only one year left is also attractive for a vezina Stanley cup winning goalie, because they will soon have the cap freedom and choice to either sign him again for less or move on. I see them taking Holts. Pretty excited to see Gadj progressing so nicely. He was injured for a lot longer than we were told, I think. I remember seeing him here in Victoria at training camp and he looked to me like he was trying to hide a limp while he walked. Now that he's healed, he's starting to show us what he can do. I sure hope he doesn't get taken by the Kraken, because he might turn into yet another great supporting cast member like Hogs, Podz, and Lind. #hirebenning
  5. Current path that has our core players of Bo, Petey, Hughes, Brock, and Demko, with potentially elite supporting players of Hoglander, Podkolzin, OJ, Rathbone, etc., and two years away from having everyone locked up with lots of cap room to spare? Please give me a different path that we should/could be down compared to this current one?
  6. About to dip my toes into crypto with 1k. I'm looking at Ada. Anyone have thoughts/ recommendations?
  7. Sure do! I literally said it the other day and my wife looked at me like a crazy person, ha! Classic. Back on topic, it would be nice if some white space was automatic when quoting someone, but that's real nitpicking. Colours, maybe the usernames could be Canucks blue and the +votes Canucks green? Some team colours like that here and there would be cool. Although I don't mind the light grey for cleanliness, I feel I might enjoy more colour touches here and there.
  8. Do. Not. Tease. I support this 1000%. Btw, I enjoy white space for readability. I love how clean everything feels. Dark mode, tho, would be a game-changer, especially with the skate colours, so yes, please. (Agree with the red button critique. Not a fan.)
  9. Do it. You'll never regret owning and living on SS or Pender. Great little communities with the best weather in Canada all year round. It wouldn't surprise me if it's true. When you hear rumours about it happening, those rumours often have some truth to them.
  10. This ^ The valuation of art started to change - arguably - with the impressionists, where meaning started to drift away from skill and into the revolt of the times. Historical significance became of greater importance with each art movement, which we still see today with Beeple's NFT. I find most art to be increasingly pretentious and narcissistic with each "movement", and I still find my personal meaning within landscape art, as I enjoy looking at nature in real life and prefer quiet moments of reflection in nature rather than some pretentious and narcissistic "message" that the artist is trying to get across to me with their paint splashed on canvas. But to each their own, I guess.

    17/22 sick

    Yet another example of why math isn't fun.
  12. Just wait, because there's still...
  13. You've just simply overpaid with our captain 200ft player in Bo, our leading scorer and amazing assistant captain, a blue chip D prospect, AND a 1st. Maybe listen to everyone saying what I'm saying and you the only one proposing an overpayment. It's not us. It's you.
  14. This is the first time I've laughed at someone's post that wasn't meant to be funny, but this proposal is just simply laughable. What an overpayment.
  15. Sounds like you're in the process of becoming woke, which is good, but the next step - hopefully - is that you then become awake, which is the stage after where you're able to parse through all the woke bs and be able to see and express criticism where it's warranted on both the left and the right.
  16. Hmm, straight across, I'm in, but both our guys I pass; but I sense and feel ya on the frustration. Gawd, I love your hard-hitting posts. Makes me laugh out loud every time. Kudos on one of the best CDC bits around.
  17. I think he's worth picking up, but only for the team that he's not already on. He's a great candidate for a reclamation project, as he's ripe for a change of scenery. I would do Jake V for Jake DB straight up, and I think it's a great win-win for both players and teams, as they're in the exact same situation.
  18. Loui: I'm not dead! I think I'll go for a walk...
