  1. You are quoting an OPINION piece as fact. Get lost. Canada has the least homogenous national identity of any country I know.
  2. Dangerous hit no matter what the commentators say. Kassian's reaction justified to me.
  3. Good. A punishment with teeth. Goddell would never hurt Kraft like that.
  4. Oh no denying the value in versatile grinders. I just think the term doesn't make a lot of sense. But if the GM and agent agree, so be it.
  5. This is a big part of the problem. Why are average players like Sissons getting 7 year deals?
  6. But overall, it's very similar. I can't tell a difference going outside whether it's -20 or -16. It's all about the wind chill to me.
  7. It's the same weather as Edmonton - nut shrinking cold. Calgary gets more snow and it's just as cold.
  8. Wasn't too long ago Poile was at the top of the GM pile until he traded Weber for Subban and the castle walls crumbled. His empire was built from the net out. Problem being, he never brought in enough offence. The team has never had a true number one line.
  9. These stories really hit me in the cockles. Poor kid being used as a bargaining chip between two parents at odds with one another.
  10. Frantically switching lines after every mediocre or poor shift is a sign of desperation.
  11. That sounds like the most boring show ever. It's analysis paralysis.
  12. TSN 1260 in the Edmonton region isn't that bad. Even if it's all Oilers all the time. None of the hosts are 'sports entertainment' guys. They are critical but not hardcore downers. It's refreshing to not have them be so negatively driven. In fact on Fridays on my way home from work, the hosts at that time promote a Positive Friday atmosphere. It's rather refreshing compared to all the years of constant negativity on the Vancouver air waves. Jason Strudwick is a co-host at that time too and he's better than almost everyone on 1040.
  13. She sits on a horse. She could take roids and it would make no difference. This is a crock of BS.
  14. What new GM would come to a team that canned their GM a few months after extending him?
  15. 5 years? I've been a fan since the early 80s. Going on 35+ years of disappointment. A few weeks of struggling is par for the course with this team.
  16. Arm chair coaches unite! All teams struggle from time to time. Canucks are no different.
  17. New 3 year contract extension signed in August. Seems like a vote of confidence from the guy who signs the paycheques.
  18. Perhaps his mandate from above is win at all costs. You don't last long in your job when you defy management.
