ahhhh points....the sole determiner of a players' worth........

Man, it sure seems like a lot of people over-rating Harris. That second half of the season would terrify me if I'm his agent......

This is what happens when you **** the dog......Finland/Sweden the new World Jr powerhouses?

Next year's A Pool has Canada, Russia and USA in it......yikes!

Everything I've heard is that he's an ******* in business, but he's the ******* you want on your side. He doesn't take no for an answer and gets **** done. I know some people who quit because of him, but I know some people that say nothing but good things about his work with both Pinnacle and the WBB. Without knowing the sheer volume of work the guy has had to do since coming on board, it's impossible to say whether he's done a good job or not. One thing I know for sure: There is nobody on the planet who wants to win more than him.

that's really the shits to lose Howell....not as concerned about Miles, but that also sucks.....

It was almost like the Jets were on the tail end of a road trip and playing back to back nights...........or something...........

It'd be progress, and that's all I've been asking for....

It's not so much "not very good" as "really young". This tournament is often referred to as a "19 Year Old's Tournament", and we are a mostly-18s team. On paper, talent doesn't seem to be the issue, but a lot of questions have been raised about cohesiveness and discipline. There appears to be a lot of guys without specific roles and not sure what's expected of them. Not sure if that's on coaching, or Hockey Canada, or what. At any rate, they're on pace for their worst finish since the 1998 Kazakhstan debacle...

Keep Drew Willy upright and healthy for most of 2016 and we make playoffs...no question.

I had to go to TEP......ugh. So ugly compared to this site.....

Paul Friesen ✔ @friesensunmedia Why is it news the Blue #Bombers are making a scheduled mortgage payment? Come to think of it, given their history, maybe it is. Right on cue...

Huge (literally) news....

I'm not ready to fire anyone till I see what they can do with all their resources available....

Merry Christmas, gang! Here's to that elusive Cup in 2016!

Discovered my new favourite thing last night. While using the mobile version, you now have the option of marking each individual forum "As Read", rather than having to mark the entire site as read. I love the option on the desktop version and had always wanted it for Mobile...so stoked that it now exists!

... and those who can't teach, teach Phys Ed....

Overrated and now laughably overpaid....too funny.

my holiday drink (be it Christmas, Easter, or Thanksgiving) is Rye n Ginger. There is nothing that says holidays to me like sitting around a table playing cards with family and a glass of rye n ginger. Not much for food traditions, except making pancakes and french toast...the old man always did that when we were growing up, and I've tried to keep it rolling a bit over the years.

Some of the cable channels have been running nothing but Christmas movies since end of November. We were chuckling because the Women's Network is around the same place as TSN/Sportsnet, so we scroll by it in the guide, and they've had nothing but Christmas movies on since American Thanksgiving... So, they're there, for sure...and on YTV and stuff.....just gotta hunt for 'em.

Talbot made some 5-bell saves, for sure, but the Oilers are a much better team than people give them credit for. The goals they scored were really nice. Some tic-tac-toe passing and then bar-down......

We have done Bad Santa followed by Vacation every year for a decade now, among our group. For me, personally, I'm a huge fan of Christmas specials, so I have to watch Charlie Brown, Rudolph, both Grinch's, Garfield, and this year I actually found Merry Christmas, Mr Bean! on TV, so I watched that for the first time in awhile. Always great. The girlfriend is obsessed with Tim Allen's "The Santa Clause" trilogy, so we watch all 3 of those every year as well. As soon as December arrives, our house is like Christmas puked in here...

I just realized that Spuds and TBurg are the exact polar opposite posters on this site.......I think the goal of every poster should be to sit somewhere right in the middle of those two, rationale-wise....

...Along with their entire 2nd line on IR.....
