  1. What's the song that plays from 5:10 to 5:40?

      I think its from a movie, but I can't place which one

      I'm pretty sure it's a cut of Inception starting at around 1.30?

      That's it! Thank you. 

  2. If Virtanen and McDavid were timed using the All Star Fastest Skater rules, is there a chance that Virt could be faster?

      I'm confident Jake could do it, when he's going.. wow. 

    3. Rob_Zepp

      As a junior, he won both the forward and backward competitions with relative ease.   I think if there are "corners' McD can edge better but if a flat out race, Jake would be right there forwards and likely blow him away backwards.

      Straight line Jake wins.  Crossovers and Pimple wins.

  3. Hughes really is a rover, isn't he? From the point to going to the front of the net for a tip twice in the same PP, and ends up getting the assist from the point anyway.

      looks like cyclone taylor out there. 

  4. &^@#in Kucherov. TB scores 7 and he has 1 hit and 1 shot. I picked him 1st in my pool! It was between him and McD in my mind and I made what I thought was the 'safe' pick. FML

      Always go McDavid. Shouldn’t even be a debate! I hate the oilers.

    2. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      his injury to end last season and missing most of preseason scared me off. If he was completely healthy over the summer, I'd have chosen him 100%

      @Where's Wellwood I could totally see that. I wasn’t thinking about it that way! My bad!

  5. Anyone else think that Ferland and Horvat look similar?

      Virtanen and Gaudette have to be twins

      Nah, similar cut, that’s bout it.

  6. Houston Rockets have traded their 2024 and 2026 first round draft picks. Can you imagine if NHL teams traded picks that far away?

      Picks have less value, and NBA stars have more value in the NBA compared to the NHL.

    3. NewbieCanuckFan

      NewbieCanuckFan

      Problem is there are far fewer roster spots on a NBA team.  Compare that to an NHL team.  And you’re talking about deal a 1st round pick 6+ years from now (one of the components in that trade).  Even in the NHL that would have limited value.

  7. A norwegian folk tale about bad trades is called Gudbrand on the Hillside. Guess what my first thought was? 

    1. Neil HD

      Neil HD

      Now we know for sure Benning dropped the ball on that trade!

      But getting Pearson was a pretty good way to make it up

    2. NHL'er

      NHL'er

      A 2nd round pick for Linden Vey? 

  8. The NHL will change the playoff format to help the Leafs avoid the Bruins every year, and then just as the Sharks and Knights are on the downswing and the Canucks are on the upswing, we'll end up having to play Dallas, St.Louis, or Colorado in the first round.

      King Heffy

      I think the format is perfect the way it is now.    Just wait until we get Montreal-Toronto or both Alberta teams miraculously make the playoffs and play each other.  Rivalries matter.

    3. Roger Neilsons Towel

      Roger Neilsons Towel

      @King Heffy Exactly. Just like when we slayed the dragon vs Chicago in 2011 (Burrows :wub: ). 

       

      The Bruins are the dragon that Toronto is going to have to learn to slay if they are going to get out of the first round. 

  9. My nightmare final is gonna happen. The only team older than the Canucks with no Cup vs the Bruins.

      Toronto has also never won a conference finals

      Man I love seeing Toronto lose,with all the hype about all those young stars they have and they just continually suck like Edmonton and all their young stars.

      The best thing is, now they are going to be in cap hell ,having to pay these floater stars like Marner and Mathews and Nylander, you know those types of players that absolutely dissappear come the playoffs.

       

      BOO HOO TORONTO.

  10. Did Ronalds Kenins make the Latvian team?

    1. Baer.

      Baer.

      A quick Google search will answer that

      @Baer. Dammit dude... just answer the question. :P

       

      The answer is yes.

  11. Is Lowry captain of the Raptors? I can't find any confirmation. He should be.

  12. And you all wanted the Leafs to lose. Well now look...

      @coastal.view

       

      I hate the Bruins more than the Leafs. 2011 cut deep. Stab wound right to the heart with a simultaneous bullet to the head. 

       

      The hate for the Leafs because of media coverage and favouritism is more like constant paper cuts. I can live with those.

    3. 6string

      All Leafs - All Lose - All The Time.

       

      It's been great entertainment for a very long time watching the CBC, TSN, SportsNet, Canadian Press, Hockey News and the many owners of Radio and Newspaper scramble after each Toronto elimination round rebuilding the brand soon after with more optimism.

       

      Screw Em!

      well don't be telling me about the nylander poster you have on your bedroom wall

      him doing a double flamingo surrounded by your special lighting

      and that you wear tavares jammies to bed

      all in hopes to ensure that the laffs beat the bruins

      cuz that is just so wrong

  13. Kekalainen has built a tough team in Columbus. Lots of 3rd/4th round draft picks playing big roles and smart trades for Panarin, Jones, etc. 

     

    However, it seems like almost every good team out there has picked top 3 (Dubois for Columbus). Something Vancouver still has yet to do recently

    1. 6string

      6string

      Interesting how we are without a President of hockey operations and many feel we are fine without one. But John Davidson proves by hiring Kekalainen as opposed to Edmonton's Bob Nicholson who hired Chiarelli makes a huge difference!

       

      Colorado also supports your top three picks too....

    2. -AJ-

      -AJ-

      The one big exception to the Top 3 rule is Boston. Their highest picks are Debrusk and McAvoy, both at 14th. Boston is behind right now to Columbus though so who knows how that turns out in the end,

  14. Reminder that Bure was a 113th overall pick, and was number 10

    1. smithers joe

      smithers joe

      bure was picked because the canucks found out he had played enough games to be drafted and scooped him the year before everyone else thought he was eligible. he would have gone first over all the following year. so we can say we got a number one pick.

  15. Reminder than Rantanen was a 10th overall pick

  16. I &^@#in hate Youtube channels like 'Furious Trailers' and others who post leaked clips from coming movies, or clips from movies that just came out and call them 'trailers'. 

  17. Finland was robbed of Gold.

      Thanks @Where's Wellwood

      Sounds really unfair.  But it’s great for the girls that another country is up there with Canada and the US.

      Interference!  I didn't see the problem.  There was both tripping and interference.  One does not negate the other.  That's not how it works.

  18. Hearing Byram in Giant's highlights makes me sad.

      sad??

      that is odd

      he is doing very well

      why aren't you just excited for him

      a local team is producing/developing an elite talent

      what is sad about that?

       

      think cup half full

      not cup half empty

      turn your frown upside down into a smile

  19. Go Ducks! Let's get the Canucks to 8th last

      Gotta play the odds and hope for a loss and the 8th spot.  Better lottery odds and it will give JB one more player in the pool to choose from.

       

      One loss won't hurt the culture in the locker room.

    3. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      For Calder purposes though, I do want Petey to score a hat trick on Binnington. But if we lose 4-3, I won't complain

    4. SabreFan1

      SabreFan1

      EP40 could score an own goal tonight and he'd still easily win the Calder.  He's a near ppg rookie with an incredible future ahead of him.

  20. Go Rangers! Let's get Montreal into the playoffs.

      Pity.  Would have been him great to see them choke after what they gave up at the deadline.

      Also would've given Ottawa a better pick

      Yeah, all 16 teams are confirmed, including Carolina and the Leafs.   I've been sitting on the couch trying to process this while drinking my ginger water.  I should have bought wine.  

  21. Nate Thompson sounds a lot like Luongo, does he not?

     

     

    1. -AJ-

      -AJ-

      Definitely similar. Different vocal mannerisms though.

    2. Rounoush

      Was on the computer and the TV was on. I thought it was Luongo talking too.

      @-AJ-

       

      On Sportscentre tonight in his interview after the Canadiens won, he spoke with the same cadence at Lu so it was even more similar. 

  22. I just got a 41 minute long youtube ad.

      15 second ads on Facebook videos less than a minute are the absolute worst.

      yeah well there is a bridge into downtown as part of that street

      queen elizabeth park is right off it

      oakridge mall is accessed by cambie

      so many things can happen around it

      depends what your interests are

      There were police everywhere around 5pm. Apparently it was a 911 call about a reported gunshot
