  1. Jumping a few decades forward from my last run of posts? Two great current cuts... (sorry @gurn , no halloween theme, but good job on those)
  2. With a twist of irony, could be Tkachuk? We are trending higher than that. I'm leaning to a 11 thru 13th pick projection right now?
  3. The year of the defenceman! http://www.tsn.ca/the-year-of-swedish-defencemen-1.852963 7 of the top 11 pre-season rankings were held down by D men. Led by Dahlin!
  4. Simmonds was also Petterson's weight at draft age. Lind 20 lbs heavier... http://www.hockeysfuture.com/prospects/wayne_simmonds/ I read somewhere here on CDC that Benn was overlooked for a myriad of reasons. A great hockey player, but a better baseball player? And many scouts thought that was where he was headed... Added to a bit, a lot actually, lackadaisical outlook about hockey. Don't give a hoot was the appearance. Running amok as a young lad. In spite of being able to turn it on with great physical skills. So everyone was not ready to invest higher picks. Dallas apparently had some intel that he would indeed play hockey. And was very high on his skills! But used the outlook to steal him with a late pick. That's what I read anyway.
  5. Wolf is required listening in my home! Plus 3 Gurn! She's Hot like Red Pepper! Sweet Like Cherry Pie... If you hear me Howling?
  6. Luv the gig! @apollo , as Glam as the Sbeezus Get it on!
  7. No connection for me, never saw them live, just cuz...
  8. God bless my departed friend Kenny. He dragged me down to the Press Club on Granville to see Rhymes with Orange give or take Halloween one year. Miss ya Kenny! A great Small Faces Cover! And speaking of Small Faces covers, and a different Kenny, this time a superstar from Saskatchewan.
  9. Posted in the PGT by @Ghostsof1915 , this one always makes me groove! Great warp 9 road tune!
  10. At times I call Perth or Vancouver (I was born there) my home town. I did grow up in in Winnipeg/ This is a bloody good band from my real home town! What else does everybody got? @chon derry https://youtu.be/kTggop1K7w8 Sorry, wont embed? Baby Cool You Jets!
  11. @gurn From Upstairs at Erics , a fabulous album from start to finish I admitted I was a child of the 80's?
  12. Here is a couple of faves. Powderfinger, maybe the most popular Aussie band for 8 or 10 years?
  13. A bit on the goosey side of rock, probably too pop rock for me, but still a good song. Iconic. Saw them at halftime of a footy match. Every one of 100,000 fans knew every word?
  14. Crap, this is the song about being rejected by a N American record producer. Mucked up that last post. I don't need your crying lies. Stupid alibies.
  15. Thanks for the +'s @Cerridwen Cold Chisel, Jimmy specifically has an absolute heroicgenerations deep following in Oz. But never seemed to make it overseas? LOL, save some ex pat 3rd world Asian countries also populated by mongrel Aussie Surfers? (Like Fiji) I've heard some pretty sad renditions of Khe San in their backpacker lane Karaoke bars. In the Phillipenes, Bali, Thailand. But Jimmy, is loved even more than Gord Downie & the Hip was in Canada.Astounding! This is a song about not making with LA record producers. Going home empty handed when they tried to make it in N America.
