Owen Powers or Clarke?

Hard no on Clarke.  I like Johnson and Edvinsson a lot if we miss out on Power.

LOL....I took my daughter and niece to Fefe Dobson.  They were front row and I wanted to be able to chill/watch them but not...there.  So I climbed up on some "boxes" near the stage so I could keep a close eye on them.  Then the music came blaring out at me...I was on a speaker tower.  I was completely deaf for about 5 days....I could not hear them on the drive home.  It was scary as hell and I learned all about where NOT to position myself at a show.

Damn there's a name I haven't heard in a while.

I saw The Who at the Kingdome!  It was awesome...I had a cabin in Birch Bay back then and we all went back there and partied afterward.

A lot of kids skipped school that day and went. 1982.

Yes, 2-3 years I can see him as the 'right 'balance for Hughes.

Young Bieksa but better defense.  Love his style of play.

Growing up in Kamloops my first concert at age 14 was April Wine backed up by Heart at the Memorial Arena.  My first concert in Vancouver was a road trip to see Rush Permanent Waves at the Coliseum. Unbelievable. The prophetic robes...

 

 

 

 

nice, always kick myself for not taking in a Rush performance.

Every game now they’re reminding us how well every other Canadian team is doing. McDavid! Matthews! Tkachuk! Caufield! And meanwhile we get David Amber calling our guy “Nate Smith”

I know he's the best and I don't take away from his hockey skills...but he bugs me.  Like a whiney, entitled diva.

This seems to be the case for guys are considered the best in the game (at least at the moment), and they also happen to play for the Oilers.... *cough*gretzky*cough*

I saw Heart with Joan Jett a few years ago. Those old gals were brilliant. One of the best concerts I’ve been too and I’ve been to a lot.

A lot of people skipped stuff to go see The Who.

When's he going to develop a set of balls and cut out the flopping and temper tantrums?

He stopped diving a couple seasons ago. Very rarely whines anymore also. Now he just goes and takes matters into his own hands. 

 

It's like saying Crosby is a whiner. Guy hasn't been a whiner since early in his career. 

 

McDavid is extremely special. He's taking command from Gretzky pretty much on how to handle the game. 

 

I've seen him embellish twice in the last two seasons (not dive, but try to sell a call) and I watch 95% of Oilers games as the wife is a fan and we live out here). I used to hate him for diving because he uses to do it a lot. I have a couple videos on my phone of his bad dives.

I'm not comfortable with his play in his own zone given how little experience he has at D.

I missed The Police in 1982. 

Saw them when they did their reunion/final tour 2006? I almost died at the ticket price, but it was worth every penny.

He's made significant strides this year playing pro in Europe.

Wow same. I remember watching her first music video thinking she’s about to explode. But I don’t think i’ve thought about her again until now.

My ears still hurt from seeing the Headpins at Gator’s in Richmond in 1982.
