      It's the title of a manga.

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

     

     

    1. -AJ-

      -AJ-

      Definitely similar. Different vocal mannerisms though.

    2. Rounoush

      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. 

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

    1. naslund.is.king

      Pears

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

      I got a bunch of “enlargement” emails....I wonder if it has something to do with I browse on the internet?

  4. Any one know what's happening around cambie street?

    1. coastal.view

      coastal.view

      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

  5. Congratulations to Utunen and Virtanen on the Gold medal

     

     

     

    Santeri Virtanen

      it hasn't got a lot of attention on CDC, but Utunen looks like a solid prospect for us. 

    3. Cramarossa

      Cramarossa

      @Hairy Kneel "Virtanen" is one of the most common (if not the most common) Finnish surnames. Liken it to Smith or Johnson in NA. So maybe a distant relative :)

  6. 3 guys from SB Nation (for what little they're worth) did mock drafts with the knowledge of who's confirmed exposed. Gaunce, Boucher and Sbisa were each selected once.

    1. HerrDrFunk

      HerrDrFunk

      With the other team's lists being released, I could actually see Bouchier being picked.

    2. stonecoldstevebernier

      stonecoldstevebernier

      I think it really depends on what Vegas sees in the other teams. If they identify a group of six d-men they like better than Sbisa, there's no point in taking him so they may as well add Gaunce or Boucher for forward depth. They'll still need reserve players, after all.

    3. CRAZY_4_NAZZY

      CRAZY_4_NAZZY

      what makes Gaunce even more appealing is that he is waivers exempt next season.  all the more important Vegas selects a few guys so they dont end up losing them on waivers come the end of training camp

  7. Is anyone else finding themselves signed out of CDC on mobile? I used to be able to stay signed in 24/7 but after the last forum crash, I get randomly signed out. 

    1. Toews

      Toews

      Same I will drop a message for Stealth in the feedback forum.

    2. Master Mind

      Master Mind

      Same for me, been happening for a while now. Stealth told me to try deleting cookies/cache, but that didn't work.

      Beary Sweet

      It's been working well for me oddly enough. Maybe you need to keep the browser open and not close it when you go to a different app. Works perfectly fine. It's worth a try

  8. Reading in youtube comments that people voted for Trump just to see the reactions if he won, hurt me. Those people are a new kind of stupid. At least actual Trump supporters believe in what he's saying and doing. 

    1. SabreFan1

      SabreFan1

      You believing the low IQ trolls on YouTube saddens me.  Chances are it's BS comments from idiotic younger teens.  They flock to the YouTube comment sections.

       

      Pure and simple, Republicans showed up in the numbers needed in the states they needed to win.  The Democrats weren't too thrilled with Hillary as a candidate so they stayed away from the polls on election day.

    2. Toews

      Toews

      Were you hoping for nuanced discussion in the YouTube comments section?

    3. JM_

      JM_

      the only requirement to vote is being 18 and older and alive. No one said you had to be informed. 

  9. What's the Canada line station nearest to UBC?

    1. Squamfan

      Squamfan

      broadway city hall or king edward

    2. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      That's still really far. Damn.

    3. Squamfan

      Squamfan

      ya mayor moon been need's stop making bike lanes, also stop complaining about he viaducts and needs to focus on the broadway subway to ubc

  10. Lucic should not be playing. He should still be serving his minimum 5 game suspension. I think his suspension should have been more than the 7 games Cooke got.

    1. Wheels22

      Wheels22

      It's the NHL and he's on the Bruins.. He could bring a gun to the game and just get 2 minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct

    2. King Heffy

      King Heffy

      Lucic should have been banned for life after he headshotted Miller.

    3. Tearloch7

      Tearloch7

      Lucic is a cretin .. plain and simple

  11. What I don't like about the new playoff format is that the final 4 teams won't necessarily be the 4 best. They'll just be the top team from 4 geographical groupings.

    1. TheRussianRocket.

      TheRussianRocket.

      Yea, don't like the playoff seeding format. Divisions I like since they make more sense, but the seedings are bad in the long term/near the end of the playoffs. Beginning sure we'll see great matchups but they might be better than the later ones.

    2. Del Rio

      Del Rio

      end of the day the best teams will meet in the SCF

    3. BanTSN

      BanTSN

      Agreed. Stupid regional BS. Stupid NHL.

  12. I can't believe Edler made a good defensive play!

    1. Mainly Mattias
    2. Kryten

      Kryten

      Edler was behind his goalie instead of in front of him knocking guys and pucks away. I fail to see how that was a good defensive play.

    3. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      He directly prevented a goal. Everybody lauds Bieksa for his goal line save, but when Edler does it he was positionally bad? Okay, he was, but if he wasn't there, Minnesota scores.

  13. Anybody listening to the broadcast of the Vancouver Giants game? The Keeper of the (Stanley) Cup is being interviewed and he said that the Vancouver Millionaires engraved their names inside the bowl when they won in 1915. That means that unlike the people whose names are engraved on the side (because the body segments of the Cup are replaced every so often) the Millionaires names will always be on the Cup.

    1. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      1915 FOREVER!!!!

    2. nux4lyfe

      nux4lyfe

      Obviously they knew that Van wouldn't be seeing the cup for ages after that, so they engraved a permanent reminder.

    3. Rounoush

      Rounoush

      Just doing a quick Google search, it looks like it was the Montreal Wanderers who did that. :/

  14. Torts says that Jensen has balls. Awesome.

    1. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      So....did he inspect himself?

    2. Shamu101

      Shamu101

      Are the balls as big as mind

    3. Dazzle

      Dazzle

      I liked his shootout attempt.

  15. I feel terrible for Stanton and Eddie. :(

    1. people please

      people please

      Or nah, trade them both

    2. Phil_314

      Phil_314

      what happened?

    3. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      Two of TB's goals were off Stanton who was trying to take away the pass.

  16. How long does it take to get a new account validated?

    1. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      To be clear, I'm not making a dupe. I wouldn't do that. My brother just made an account and it's already been a couple hours.

    2. Baka

      Baka

      You're lucky Bertuzzi Babe isn't here anymore she would have banned you both immediately

    3. King Heffy

      King Heffy

      Ask Kesler87

  17. Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped; turned upside down; And I'd like to take a minute; just sit down, James; I'll tell you how I became the undisputed King of Card Games

    1. Baka
    2. Blame Obama
    3. Keslerific

      Keslerific

      haha me and my friends used to love the yugioh abridged series back in highschool

  18. Anybody know, or are there any rumours about, how long Torts' contract is and salary?

    1. TIGER SINGH

      TIGER SINGH

      Gillis said that his contract is 5 years long

    2. TIGER SINGH

      TIGER SINGH

      and was getting payed 6.67 million with the Rangers

    3. Grapefruits

      Grapefruits

      5 years, 10 million is what I've been hearing

  19. If we could get Torts and Stevens and head coach and assistant coach, that'd be great.

    1. BananaMash

      BananaMash

      Why would Stevens leave his job in LA to do the same job in Raincouver?

    2. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      He wouldn't but wouldn't it be nice if he did?

    3. Avicii

      Avicii

      Pretty sexy actually

  20. Is there some kind of program or application offered by UBC where you can plug in which courses you've completed and it tells you which degree requirements are met and which need to be done, by when, and which courses will meet those requirements?

    1. ManUtd

      ManUtd

      Did you try degree navigator on the ssc?

    2. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      I just did. It seems sort of outdated and more geared towards helping arts students.

    3. ManUtd

      ManUtd

      It's great for engineering but then the requirements for it are really specific.

  21. Am I the only one who sometimes holds their breath when people pass by them just in case they stink.

    1. peener

      peener

      i do the exact opposite

    2. :D

      :D

      If you inhale as soon as a man walks by, you're probably gay

    3. peener

      peener

      i do a lot of things that are probably gay. probably because im probably gay

  22. Ever since an argument I had in elementary school about this, I've gotten extremely irked whenever someone pronounces 'infinite' the same way as 'infinity'.

    1. AngelicHearts

      AngelicHearts

      Never heard anyone pronounce it like that, but I can see why it would be irritating.

    2. Salmonberries

      Salmonberries

      I guess it doesn't take much to set you off then eh Welly!

  23. Is Baer to the BBB line what Morrison was to the WCE? The underappreciated third piece?

    1. JM_

      JM_

      sort of, but Morrison played tougher... :huh: I'd like to see a bit more grit out of Sven 

    2. Baer.

      Baer.

      Sven is highly underrated, but I do agree he needs to get stronger. I like him because he fits the speed Horvat and Boeser has and all 3 of those guys like to go to the net. 

  24. As long as Demko shows progression this year, I'll be happy. We can't expect Vegas level goaltending every game. Especially with the Defence he has in front of him this year 

    1. NewbieCanuckFan

      NewbieCanuckFan

      Goaltending is WAY down the list of problems that need to be fixed.

    2. Heretic

      Heretic

      Well...I expect it.

  25. Canadian Paralympic Committee releases 3D Printing files for 20 custom pieces to customize existing Lego figures to better represent individuals with disabilities and certain Paralympic sports

    https://paralympic.ca/expansion-pack

    1. JM_

      JM_

      neat, thats great. 

       

      Do you have a 3d printer?

    2. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      I don't. I wish Lego would get on board and just sell these (with partial (or all) proceeds going towards the Canadian Paralympic program).

       

      That paralympic website was careful to never use the word Lego
