Sadly they're limiting it to two stands though. I think I'll continue doing the Costco stop before in order to avoid that lineup. Happy I'll be able to catch more games with the afternoon start times; the new ownership has done a great job so far.

Look up Putin's hero, a certain Austrian painter. -
IIHF bans Russia and Belarus for 2023-24 season
King Heffy replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in General Hockey Discussion
Going off personal experiences at WJHC's in multiple countries. Any time a situation was about to get out of hand, the Russians were involved. The tension is now orders of magnitude higher and alcohol will be a factor. Doesn't matter if a Canadian, Czech, or Russian fan starts it once things really get going. -

Not too mention their fans can't handle themselves even under normal circumstances when they travel to these tournaments. The host city doesn't deserve the havoc that would occur. -

That would be the logical reaction. -

Good. As much as I love the WJHC, I personally would have given the tournament a miss if the IIHF got it wrong. -
New Salary Cap. New Player Representative
King Heffy replied to Sharpshooter's topic in General Hockey Discussion
How would you compensate defensive specialists fairly? -
I'm going to try to give an example so those who think crippling the club in the future is a good idea can understand: Let's say you have an older car that's overall kind of a pain to deal with, but mechanically sound. You have the following options given your financial means: 1. Wait 4 years, save money and live within your means to buy your dream car. 2. Wait 2 years to finance a new, reliable car. 3. Use whatever you have now and get a payday loan to get another beater, and then repeat the process once it's time for a new one. An OEL buyout is the equivalent of the third option.

And he was absolutely dreadful in the tournament. He'd be #1 on my do not draft list.

Reinbacher is good; Sandin-Pellikka is an absolute trainwreck in his own zone and is incredibly unlikely to ever learn how to play defence at a level that will be acceptable to an NHL team.

Sadly, he is probably stupid enough to take that pylon.

New Salary Cap. New Player Representative
King Heffy replied to Sharpshooter's topic in General Hockey Discussion
Exactly. A GM would have to be a complete and utter moron to even consider that as a possibility. Even Benning isn't THAT stupid. -

And then the Canucks are crippled for 8 years if management is stupid enough to think this is a good idea. Sadly, they likely are. -

Paul's kid? He was a pretty solid pitcher in his day. -
[PGT] Anaheim Ducks at Vancouver Canucks | Mar. 08, 2023
King Heffy replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
I'd probably have them on ignore to avoid violating the board rules against personal attacks on other members. Regarding a friend or member of my family, I would cut off all contact.
