JCon

Flames remind me of the Senators from a few years ago, when they went to the Eastern Conference Final. Everyone assumed that they would be a great team going forward but they dropped off a cliff. I could see Calgary doing the same next year.

It depends on the class of the creditor. Creditors are classified, the highest class getting paid first. Secured creditors will get what's owed to them. But most won't, including the players.

I thought Hnidy was good by the time he left. I really liked Engblom and was sad when he left.

Agree. There is no way Debrusk is near the top. Galley is better and so is Ferraro, the current king. The only good thing is that Paul Romanuk is not calling this one. I've never been a Beyak fan but fear a day when we'll be subjected to more of Edmonds.

Pretty sure Sportsnet is the broadcaster.

Wrong.

Maybe this will make the Argos and Als viable franchises? Haha, nope.

Hate this.

Randorf isn't "bad" but DeBrusk is. The pair are rancid. Sportsnet is rancid.

Yes, I missed the last one. My boss went and raved about it. Lots and lots of stuff. Listening to the early, early, stuff recently, and FM really changed over time.

Well, he's suing them, so maybe he can sue his way back in? I would go, if he's there.

He has played really, really well. But Sportsnet has gone into overdrive on Binnington. I hate Sportsnet and can't believe we still have to suffer their coverage for the next 7 or 8(?) years. An example... Laine drills Perron against the boards. Do they praise Laine's physicality, which he's been criticized for before? No. Do they note how much his game has evolved in the last couple of months, especially in the playoffs? Of course not. Do they suggest that Perron was tired, which is why he staggered back to the bench? Winner, winner, chicken dinner. Only Sportsnet could turn a big Laine hit into Perron being tired.

Great news all around.

The Rebel was granted media access to the UCP victory party. That should tell you about the company they keep.

Yeah, I'm getting pretty tired of gov'ts cutting taxes before balancing the budget. Cut taxes, after you've made the spending cuts. Conservatives here cut the PST by a point but still haven't balanced the budget. Know what would balance the budget? Not cutting a point off the PST!! They've just downloaded more debt to the next generation.

"High" is subjective. But, if it's high and you're getting services that exceed those taxes, not so bad.

But it had Donald Glover and Woody Harrelson.

SW8 was worse, by far. It was a horrid crap-heap. Solo was uninspired but not horrible.

But the CFL is not going to sign a contract with someone who may not be able to honour it. Then, the CFL would have to sue the player. Also, you can't knowingly enter a contract when you're bound by another agreement that would preclude you from playing in another league. I'm sure the AAF agreements are tight.

In my ideal world, the NHL season is 70 games long. Begins on Oct 1st, ends on first week of March. Then 16 teams make the playoffs, and four rounds of best of 5 hockey follows. The Stanley Cup is awarded at the end of April.

Not early on. You can't do it during the Stanley Cup Finals but earlier rounds have been fine. It's too hard to keep a "secret" for the six months that the playoffs are on.

Plagueis transferred his entity to Palps. Palps to Snoke? Snoke to ???. To Kylo? The entity continues to look for a suitable host. Vader didn't work (all crispy and whatnot). Luke wasn't a good host. Kylo, maybe.

Maybe we find out the true identity of Anakin's father is Darth Plagueis?

I think they've got a good chance this summer with all the hype and build up.
