another prime example of how the braintrusts in the east could not care less about us on the best coast.

not really, that was from my kids. Their favorite Disney movie was Snow White and I resembled Grumpy (by personality, not looks).

when I was a teenager, one of my cousins from Edmonton said that I looked like Gretzky....I couldn't have felt more insulted.

[Discussion] NBA Style Mid season Tournament
grumpyone replied to Provost's topic in General Hockey Discussion
So like a one week mid season tourney? Each division all to themselves. All teams play each other once. All games at a neutral site, divisions at 4 neutral sites, possibly indoor baseball stadiums so maximum crowds. They could be like the bubble, 2 games per day(obviously not 2 games for one team on the same day). Everyone plays 5 games in 7 days. 4 separate mini trophies awarded based on points gained with some tie breakers based on goals for/against etc. Charities involved with the monetary winnings, of course. ie: each team plays for a certain charity...Canuck Place etc. Use this to replace the all star fiasco. -
now this is just MY opinion so glean from it what you will and don't shoot me for having an opinion. IF any team can't produce enough players to safely play a game that game should not be postponed but should result in a forfeiture. Going in the books as a 1-0 loss. Problem of having to reshuffle the schedule is now solved. Yes I know some players would be ticked off because their stats/bonuses could be affected, but so what...

[Signing] Flames sign Erik Gudbranson
grumpyone replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Calgary probably figures if they sign enough ex-canucks then that puts them only 2-4 years off of a legit contender. Sounds like a Benning type of plan.... you know always 2-3 years away from being legit contenders. -
If you only could only listen to one band....
grumpyone replied to bishopshodan's topic in Off-Topic General
I have an eclectic taste in music. I'd chose Jim Croce. Too bad his collective work is so limited, but what he put out is phenomenal. My second choice would have to be ABBA. the whole gambit, folk - disco - rock. ( plus the lead singers are cute as all get out ) -
I'd like to see Mc crybaby try to use a 70's style 2x4 stick. I'd like to see Marchand try to take liberties ala he did with Daniel circa 2011 against gretzky... Mcsorely would pound him to oblivion. I'd like to see Dryden, T.Esposito, Tretiak, etc use today's ultra lightweight pads. or today's goalies use the straw stuffed ones of yesteryear.

very hard to compare those from different decades. Perreault and LeFluer used 2x4's for sticks. Then there are those that had to play through the dead puck era. And then compare them with the high flying era where we just have to out score the other team( I don't care if they score 6... we'll score 7)( no defense at all) Then there is today, where it's a combination of them all, sans 2x4 sticks.
