    Two Florida teams? The trouble with a lot of US markets is hockey is way down the list of fan support. They might have a hard core group of hockey fans, but it is a very small number, as evidenced by TV viewership. 

    Lol idk why but always kind of liked them

    Tampa due to Marty St.Louis being my favorite player 

    And the Cats I would always say that they will be my retirement team

  2. Sounds like Lindholm and Backlund are on their way out after their contract ends in 2024. Could be an interesting off season if they decide to shuffle the deck and sell high on them. Let's be honest they will grasp on to the excuse that the only reason why they missed the playoffs is due to losing so many games in OT

  3. Let the flames win so they can get swept in the first round. The team is so bad this year, that I even made a drinking game to finish my drink if Marky let's in one of the first 3 shots (pop of course).... Hard mode: take a sip when UberDough makes a behind the back pass  to nobody.

  4. IS Bruce's favorite number 15 or something? I thought 21 would be more relevant since that was the year that he started coaching for the Nucks

    It's also too bad that the name was too long to include "there it is"

    /S

    But honestly a great gesture and Bruce seems like such a humble guy

  5. It's for all of the mowing the lawn in February pictures that you guys sent to people outside of BC. - Frozen Calgarian here

     

    But media likes to beat teams when they're down and hype up teams that are winning. Whatever generates the most clicks

     

    Matthews scores 3 goals: "Is Matthews better than Gretzky?"

     

    Canucks/Sens lose 3 in a row: "Why bother icing a team? Tank hard for Bedard instead"

  6. I felt the 2 teams were pretty even for most of the game. 1 bad defensive breakdown caused the first goal and an unfortunate stumble by Silovs for the 2nd.  Fingers crossed that this will be a future playoff match up

     

    I am impressed by Karlsson, always dangerous and some edge to him. He looks way bigger than listed

    Only 4 tickets left for the Coachella Valley Firebirds (Kraken) inaugural home opener  Dec 18 and they are priced at $564 each.  Arena holds 9918 for hockey (I won't be going)

    They only have 12 left for their second game 2 days later, at $126.  They get cheaper in mid January, at between $35 to $48 for upper tier seats.   Unfortunately Abby won't play them again this season

     

    San Diego and Ontario outdraw Abbotsford - and significantly outdraw Utica ......... here's the attendance figures from last season:

    Thanks for the link I was curious to see the attendance records since I snagged seasons for the Wranglers (STH price broke even with going to the 6 Canucks games this year). It will be interesting to see the attendance when the Nucks and Condors play since the arena has been pretty empty so far. 4th worst in the league 

  8. I could see a decent hockey trade with the Flames at TDL if we can stomach sending him over the mountains.

    BB 50% retain for 2/3 rd pick Kylington and Kuznetsov. Cond 1st? If Kylington hangs them up?

     

    Why: Kylinton has some offensive potential at 31 points but requires a stay at home D. I think he is the odd man out once he returns from personal leave. Kuznetsov is a solid 6'4 D former 2nd rounder. Sadly both are LHD.

     

    Flames: they need a trigger man and a top 6 to shore up their roster. They keep losing despite outshooting their opponents. They are all in for the next 3 years and I see them in the market this TDL

  9. Nice to see Darth Vlader have some contract security. He has been solid for the Flames and playing him more frequently should help  Marky with the workload since he need to play more of a 45-50 game role to be rested up for playoffs.

     

    As a Canucks/hockey fan in Cowtown - Yes, whenever he makes a big save they play the Vader theme song during the replays

  10. I have no problem when asked to use my debit card at small mom and pop shops that don't have the supply chain like the major companies have. Most businesses already have the CC charge accounted for in their price analysis so it sounds like price gouging to me when inflation has already been up ~8%.

     

    I think it may be time to date stamp an envelope paying for my expenses in dimes
