  1. Hopefully he gives McCann a nice Christmas card since the only reason why he even had an NHL career is due to McCann forcing the team to keep them both as rookies. Virt always came off as disinterested and lazy at every AHL or Nucks game I've been to.
  2. He has so much tv potential and a love for the game. Hopefully he can help grow the game within the BIPOC community by giving him an outlet on HNIC
  3. You pretty much nailed the situation in Calgary I will miss the iconic building, dome foams and one of the cheapest seats to catch a game in Canada. But the building is literally falling apart and it would be a big boost to the downtown core being able to bring in quality acts. I just hope the new arena looks more than just a shoebox like the initial proposals indicate.
  4. Fingers crossed that they win tonight. I see that some $50 seats for gold medal were just released and I was able to snag one. Now for the 3hr drive tomorrow
  5. Lol I'll make sure i include on my resume that I am a Maritime export that came to my senses after 2 years in Alberta "please save me from my bad decisions"
  6. I know it can be rough living in Cowtown and having a huge hockey obsession. Atleast I can rock the blue and green for some interesting reactions from the locals
  7. I just bought season tickets for the Flames a month ago and now they go into full rebuild. Atleast the Flames tears will make it even more entertaining in the press level
  8. I'm not really sure where he would be a fit. He is an entertaining player to watch. But to get the most of him he needs a high energy fan base and a tanev-like pairing
  9. I was hoping this plug would have been chased out of playing in North America with terrible numbers and history of injuring players (Batherson, Stone)
  10. I would like to see Zegras getting it. He is such a fun player to watch. Anyone but Bunting to be honest. A 26 year-old with 2 partial seasons in the NHL and over 300 AHL games shouldn't be considered a rookie anymore even it he is eligible
  11. I wouldn't mind a 20 team format. Let the 4 wildcard teams in each conference battle it out for the last 2 spots in a best of 3 mini series. The higher ranked team hosts all 3 games as their advantage.
  12. I was at this game Dallas played and covered them well. If Dallas covers the passing lanes like they did last night they may take the series (as much as I'm hoping for a battle of Alberta) Calgary looked way off. A lot of their passes were rushed, going to nowhere or bouncing all over the place. Only in the late 3rd did they look like the team that they are capable of.
  13. I'm hoping Calgary goes far and I may have joined the bandwagon. This will be my first Red Mile experience since moving here. Even though the fans at the Dome have pretty mediocre level chirps when I rock the blue and green when the Nucks are in town.
  14. I think a 3-2-1 point system is the way to go. Gives teams an incentive to win in regulation instead of shutting it down in the 3rd to rest key players. OTW will be 2 points and OTL worth one point.
  15. He hasn't looked out of place during the Flames games I've been to. But I mean anyone would take a hit on the points department playing with Lewis and Shrek on ice
  16. Growing up St.Louis was my favorite player. Battled his way to being one of the greats after being undrafted and deemed too small for the NHL. But strange that they would make him head coach right away. Only experience I could find is being a special teams consultant for the blue jackets..... under the guidance of Tortorella
  17. I would pass on this trade but consider it for Miller (would he even want to do a full circle to the team that originally drafted him) Only saw Laf play one game and he looked invisible and unmotivated far from what I saw in juniors.... to his defense it was a game played in Calgary
  18. Well he would be tied for 2nd on the team for most points by a defenceman playing half the number of games..... I'm kidding we don't need him or am I?
  19. Wasn't it right leaning individuals that fund raised $2 million for his bail in Nov 20, 2020 Heck I'd wear a Habs jersey if they raised that kind of money for me even though I absolutely despise them
  20. I have not seen one reason why KR was the aggressor and deserved to be ambushed by JR. If you don't like a kid wielding a gun, the common sense thing to do is continue walking down the block. Not one video showed KR being aggressive by aiming his gun at anyone (unless being attacked). Just because he went against the grain by putting out fires, cleaning graffiti, and providing basic medical aid does not entitle someone to attack him. JR would have easily overpowered KR if he didn't shoot. A fully grown man, double his age and quite strong (165, 5'3) would have done damage to an average build kid. With threats like "I'll kill you if I catch anyone alone", "I'll cut xxx out of you" it's obvious JR was not in the right headspace. We have already seen videos of women getting beaten by 2x4's, people killed and beaten during the multiple protests/riots that summer, to say an unarmed person can't severely beaten or kill a kid is delusional. You would completely have a case if KR was aiming his gun at everyone that was near him or trying yelling slurs to aggravate the crowd. Saying "does anyone need medical" doesn't sound like it fits the bill and narrative you are trying to portray.
  21. An article from Nov 2020 states that the gun was bought in Ladysmith and stored in Kenosha by Mr. Black. Mr. Black was the one that originally called Kyle to ask him help him guard businesses that night.
  22. Man 3- admitted to Kyle not shooting him when his hands were up, only shot when he had his gun pointed at him Man 2 bashing Kyle's head in with a skateboard and gets shot Man 1 "get him and kill him" "if I catch any of you alone I'll kill you" gun shots fired 2.5 seconds before Kyle fired, 2x the strength and age of Kyle and hands on the barrel of the gun, ran down and chased Kyle into a corner with another man with a gun..... Hope you like my Sparknotes version for you guys. I know I would fear for my life if this man ran me down after putting out a fire unless I have Marvel level plot armor
  23. He and Nilsson really carried Tampa during the last playoffs. Glad Montreal fans pointed it out that the team was over the cap with their contracts.
  24. To be fair I am not sure if there would be any Canadian team if I made the NHL either. I don't have it in me to join the C of Red even though I live in Calgary and Ottawa would be the best spot for a low profile but high taxes. Playing for the Panthers, minimal media exposure and nice weather. Plus pressure of playing in the playoffs once every 10 years sounds more appealing
