  1. The Penticton Vees Junior A hockey team recently won their 41st consecutive game setting a North American record for consecutive wins without a loss. Penticton is a 55 min drive south from Kelowna http://www.tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/story/?id=389742
  2. nerve blocks befrore shoulder surgery are awesome (but only until they wear off - ouch today)
  3. All I know is Cody is plus 3 and has zero points, yet the team has 3 wins in a row since the deal. Kassian has 2 points in a loss, and the Nucks are 1-1-1 with him in the lineup. I'll take Cody's plus 3 and the 3 wins thank you very much. PS Cody is essentially on a 9 game road trip right now. He is probably a little tired.
  4. I agree Bun.
  5. It'll be fun. What you think of this deal?
  6. I think the canucks will let him be himself more than Buffalo did. He won't be asked to play nice but play his game while in control and not hurting the team. Buffalo pussied him after his court date. I'm sure it will be made clear to him that he will be counted on to stand up for his mates in vancouver. In Buffalo he didn't even dress for the sabs/ b's rematch. That told me something on the sabres' front.
  7. And you could have gone!!!! Really glad we're still going. Sabres win this trade. But Kassian will make sure liberties aren't taken and that could be enuf for the nucks to win it all. They were a game away last year and their team is much better this year.
  8. http://www.vancouversun.com/touch/sports/story.html?id=6045930 The coach doesn't come out and say it but when you watch games you see things. Little things. But the start they had together probably tells the tale Anf FTR he is not soft. He's fairly sneaky, good at gettin pucks out of feet and super aware of the ice. His vision cannot be taught. He has a great shot too. See tim thomas last game they played.
  9. Hodgson is putting up pts playing on the 3rd and 4 th line. He rarely has the same linemates yet still gets his pts. His avg ice is around 10 mins I believe. He's worthy of more. The coach didn't like him and that's that. Put him with Vanek and let them build chemistry for the final 20 games. Don't waste him playing with checkers.
  10. Look up ice time for the rookie fwds and see how little Hodgson played. And rarely with the twins I might add. If we can get a coach who doesn't ruin CH he'll be a fan favourite. Never moans or ###### about ice time or linemates. Just plays
  11. Hodgson is not fast. Sorry. He's a marginal skater, good in short bursts. Sees the ice amazingly well. I asked myself who will have a better career. If's Cody by a mile. Good deals Reiger
  12. Hodgson sees the ice so well. He's gets the least amount of ice yet has 33 pts He has played with almost everyone and still puts up points. He got 30 secs pp time. He can play. But he's not fast nor huge. The coach never warmed to CH. He can play. The nucks needed a big guy to keep others honest. Sulzer is a solid player. Shocked but happy yet not happy. Vanek keep your stick on the ice cuz the kid will find you. Gonna be fun this sat. Lookin fwd to it
  13. In no particular order .... Mogilny in his prime. AC/DC any time, any place. Being pleasured orally (can I say that here) Chips HDTV Days off My kids My wife Back In Black from start to finish Red wine Iphone F150 Ecoboost
  14. Good for you and everyone else who says Merry Christmas! Merry Christmas right back at ya!
  15. Mmmmmmm, breasts!
  16. Sorry for saying what others thought too. I didn't see those posts til now. Glad I'm not the only one who thought that. I liked the post suggesting the hit may turn Miller's season around.
  17. Just gonna throw this out there. Could the lack of response be that they don't care if Miller got rocked? Would their reaction have been the same had Enroth been in net? I certainly hope that wasn't the case. Even if the boys like JE better the lack of response makes the entire team look bad. But part of me truly believes the reaction would've been different if Enroth was in. JMHO.
  18. I don't quite drive it yet, but I have a 2011 F 150 (v6 ecoboost) on order. I should be getting it anytime now!
  19. Super lady too, as well as good lookin' Thanks for that. You can vote daily! As for he big FAIL, sorry but it's not hat big of a deal. Karma
  20. Don't hate me for this, but I figured this would be the best time to ask a favour. A very good Kelowna friend of mine (tyler myers would want you to do this for her) is trying to land a gig as the host of paradise hunter. If you could spare a few seconds and vote for her, it would be appreciated. http://www.paradisehunter.com/vote/dorothy.html Thanks and gooooo Sabres! Beat the stinkin' Sens.
  21. No excuses if they lose another home game and against the Leafs. Can't happen.
  22. Say what you will about Myers, but the kid continues to impress. Yes, he's struggled at times this year, but a guy with his character and skill set is hard to come by. He's the future of this team. And I love his nerve. Most guys would have peeled off and defend and he just went for it and got the winner. Speaking of winning goals, he now has 3 of the team's 7 game winning goals.
  23. They only play the Canucks once this year. I was still under the impression it's one game home and then one game on the road the following year, and so on.
  24. Well, it was the perfect script for me. My Sabres got the two points, the Canucks got one, I'm thrilled. And so happy to see Myers get the winner. He's got balls, I tell ya. If he misses that clearance it's a two on one the other way with 20 secs to go. Great win, although their start was poor. Lucky to score on their first shot. Connolly was flat out robbed in the 2nd period late.
  25. Cory Schneider is 3-0 in his 3 starts, letting in 1 goal in each game He has started 3 games and relieved in one. His stat line is impressive. His first start, Colorado scored with 3:08 left in the third. 3-1 Canucks. His second start, Minnesota scored with 2:35 left in the third. 5-1 Canucks. His third start, he made 32 saves in a 5-1 win against Carolina. He's 3-0-0 with a 0.90 goals against and a .969 save % I am hoping for the usual when my two teams play. A Sabres OT win so both teams pot points. But I have the feeling tonight could be a long night for the Canucks. Just a feeling I get.
