  1. Brian Johnson's vocals should never be paired with anything but Malcolm Young's guitar.

  2. Can anyone recommend any podcasts to listen to?

      Not sure what type you're looking for but some of my favourites:

      WTF - Comedian Marc Maron each episode does a long interview of someone in entertainment (usually comedy or music).  Lots of good stories and insights on life in these interviews.

       

      Stuff You Should Know - amusing episodes on fairly random topics.  Lots of pop culture references, especially if you were born between the 70s and 90s.

       

      Real Time with Bill Maher - podcast of his HBO tv show.  Not for someone who has more right leaning political tendencies

       

      Planet Money - shorter episodes on an economic topic

       

      The Sunday Edition - CBC radio's end of week show of news of the week, and general interest topics.

       

      Ideas - another CBC radio podcast.  Each episode is a 45 minute radio documentary on a topic.

       

      Freakonomics Radio - podcast by the writer of Freakonomics author Stephen Dubner

      Stuff You Should Know is a good one. Malcolm Gladwell's is decent as well.

       

      I'll listen to Jordan B Peterson's podcast sometimes. Not sure why- I don't agree with most of what he says but it's interesting nonetheless.

      Post2Post YouTube channel has weekly podcasts you can listen to or watch, they talk about some good hockey stuff.

  4. Can we all just agree that the refereeing this year has been cancer?

      Nashville had their chances but man that early whistle was bad. You just knew the series would turn on that. 

  5. Can we give CDC a dark mode, please?

  7. Can't wait to see Virt get 10 games because the other guy missed the Olympic swimming team.

  8. CDC has certainly become more toxic lately.

      Society has forgotten how to discuss things. It goes from disagreement to "Well that escalated quickly.." pretty fast.

  10. Despite our team's utter suckage, I still find myself looking forward to Canucks games.

      Saturday was the first game I've missed in years.   I don't even call it utter suckage because they aren't floating around, not caring out there.  The young guys have heart and speed and I find it highly entertaining, even if we do lose.

      I'm just looking forward to playoff hockey no matter which teams are involved.

      Honestly, Saturday's game was probably one of our best all season.

  11. Did you know that Katy Perry's single Hot N Cold was actually about the Vancouver media? True story.

  12. Do people really blame the Sedins on the Canucks not getting Dahlin? That's not how probability works.

      no winning games that mean nothing  hurt our chances we should have drafted in top 3  like thats the message u send to players ya lets win meaningless games to  win  nothing ever

      No respectable GM or coach is going to tell his team to lose on purpose for a coin toss.

    4. Drive-By Body Pierce

      Drive-By Body Pierce

      If you've been playing sports enough to make it to the highest professional level, there's a certain level of pride and drive to never want to lose, or you would never make it, let alone stay at that level. To me, throwing a so-called "meaningless" game near the end of the season is like a professional boxer throwing a fight for gambling reasons. It shows an absolute LACK of character and no respectable professional would do so.

  13. Do you think they'll put up a picture of Al Montoya with the Habs logo behind him as a gesture of support on Facebook?

  14. Don't go away again, CDC. I had to listen about how we're apparently toxic from Reddit.

      @Brad Marchand I find that hilarious for some reason

      I feel like half the hate for CDC comes from people that were banned from CDC. I've never been to Reddit but wading through HFBoards was just too painful. Pretty sure that HFBoards is mostly 50 yr old men that failed to accomplish anything in their life.

      We're definitely the most positive too

      I would agree that Naslund and Bertuzzi got a lot attention in their heyday, but also agree that the twins probably never quite got their due.

      I love wine! What type of wine did you have?  I have not drank wine lately nor champagne, but I can drink more champagne than wine in one evening.

      Before the pandemic, did you take visits to the wineries?  When I was in my early 20s, I used to go to the wineries all the time on the Olympic Peninsula.  I was such a lush!  I would also take the ferry over to Victoria to go to the Vista 18 for an afternoon of wine and the view. That was a long time ago.  I'm almost in my late 30s now.
