  1. looks like a good one all right. I expect the Jets to go D heavy in this draft, seems to be quite a few available. That being said, if we can luck out again and be in the top 2 then seeing Nico Hischier on a line with Nikolai Ehlers and Patrick Laine has me convulsing. That line could be legendary, like Bobby, Ulf and Anders legendary.
  2. That's what Rick DiPietro said.
  3. Roslo and Connor developing some serious chemistry. Roslo scored a beauty last night too. Now if they could just get Compher out of Colorado....
  4. http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=176931 Unless you've got some more updated info I think he's still with the Condors.
  5. http://www.bakersfieldcondors.com/team/player-stats/ Looks like Poolparty is doing ok in the AHL too. Is he eligible for the Calder next year?
  6. still haven't gotten around to talking to my relatives on this one, but the above statement does ring a pretty large bell. I know farmers were getting arrested for going across the border to sell their grain. It ain't right to stop farmers from marketing their grain on their own, and especially ain't right turning them into criminals for trying.
  7. Any fans of SuperTroopers here? The Broken Lizard comedy team all went to Colgate.
  8. yeah that gitch shot encapsulated all we need to see when it comes to junk pics.
  9. Hellebuyck definitely shows flashes of greatness. Last night against the Isles he made some jaw-dropping saves. The problem is that he also still lets in too many floaters. I think its a combo of experience and confidence. The Jets need to invest in a goal-tending coach that is going to build on Helle's strengths, and build his confidence.
  10. we're not going to make the playoffs this year. It's over. Too many injuries and not good enough goal-tending. Next year if we can somehow get some help on D (and Myers is healthy) and Little doesn't get hurt on his first shift, Helle continues to develop and we get him the goaltending coach and mentoring he needs to gain some confidence, and Connor and Roslo make the jump and give us some offensive punch, then I think we can push for a wild card. I am hoping that Chevy can work some draft magic and we can grab Cal Foote in the draft, but I know that's not going to happen. And yes, I am an unabashed Kelowna Rockets homer, so yes I am biased.
  11. he played at Colgate? I bet he has nice teeth.
  12. yes at this point you should just present junk and expect it to be punched
  13. I'll ask my relatives. I am also going to ask them how happy they are about the carbon tax. Not sure if the government has thought of farmers and the onerous burden this useless tax puts on them - anyone know?
  14. hope that he invents fast!
  15. if you are ever in Kelowna and need to find charging stations I can let you know of a few. There's a charging station at Mission Hill winery on the West side and a charging station in the parking lot at Home Depot in Kelowna.
  16. I think we are missing out on the real questions we should be asking on Vandervoort. 1. What is his hair like? 2. Is his mom hot? 3. If answer to #2 above is "yes", or even better "oooo baby" then the follow on question is - will she come to training camp in short shorts?
  17. I'm really not loving this trend in social media to create hash tags out of every post. #reallytiredofit #makeitstop
  18. I am looking at buying a new car this year. I usually drive my vehicles for at least 10 years. I am hoping this is the last gas-powered vehicle I ever buy. There are a few electric options now but none really appeal to me. I am hopeful that there will be a lot more options when I go to buy a car again in 2027.
  19. One of the biggest scams pulled by the AGT crowd is getting 97% lie to be accepted as truth. This comment just isn't true. But besides the point about whether man-made climate change is real, there is a whole other argument here as to what should be done about it. Obama may have "lead the charge" but according to the alarmists, all of that money spent has done absolutely nothing. So what should be done? What money should be spent? I suggest those here interested in reading about this subject should read Bjorn Lomborg's stuff. He actually crunched the numbers, and is "leading the charge" in terms of questioning the costs and showing how all of that spending is doing no good. I don't even want to get into the discussion of who is "reputable" etc as it just detracts from the discussion as we argue over what is considered "reputable" and who is not considered "reputable" because they GASP don't parrot the accepted narratives.
  20. Laine should have scored on that play in OT last night where he deked three Predators out of their jock straps. Because he didn't score, Matthews has my vote.
  21. Barbecue is definitely better in Nashville.
  22. basically the world would not be any different right now in terms of climate whether Obama had blown all of that money and made those punitive regulatory changes that cost the American economy trillions of dollars. That's my view.
