Well I guess you sort of can, since he (very stupidly) didn't trade him at the deadline

In their defense, its only 11:00 a.m.

Many people in SoCal are just waking up or just coming back in from the morning surf.

Word is he had a deal in place and the Aquilini's squashed it because they thought they could convince Kesler to change his mind with the coaching change they knew was coming when the season ended.

So I have a last minute family thing I have to deal with tonight, but my loss could be someone else's gain. I have 2 tickets for the draft tonight (and something for parking I think) so if someone is interested, I guess DM me. They are in a PDF file so I'm guessing I could just e-mail it to someone. Let me know, I don't want the tickets to go to waste and hope someone can enjoy participating in the draft in person.

I was able to snag 6 tickets for me and my friends for tonight's draft, but other plans were made so we can't use them. Not looking to make money, obviously. I don't really wanna split them up, since it's a PDF file. I'd rather just forward it to one person. Anyone interested?

....which brings us full circle: that franchise is being run into the ground.

I think it's pretty comical, honestly

Last year I couldn't root for them. I was looking forward to going back this season but there's not going to be much left.

How's the midnight sun in Alaska these days?

Don't know if I could ever adapt to that.

Yeah, TSN had Garrison possibly on the move, too. Looks like full rebuild now.

it's there. they have it worse further north. I enjoy it. Have to. Charge up the battery. Unfortunately, it's been raining for the better 1/2 of a week, which cuts into the ability to enjoy the long days outside.

Tough to find someone to absorb all that salary... maybe even impossible.

I know it's not NHL-related, but I know there's some Pink Floyd fans on here. There's a test press of their soundtrack for "More" up on eBay. $5000, but it's probably the only time you'll ever have a chance.

I'm on my phone, so I don't feel like capgeeking, but what do they each make? 7 mill?

I think the Oilers could push for them. Or the Predators. Weber for the Sedin bros??

You are still asleep. None of this is real. Take the blue pill and the story ends and you'll wake up in your bed and Kesler will still be a Canuck.

That's really (frank)in cool.

That being said, I wish I had 1/5 of that as spending money

If you've got the 5k kicking around -- go for it [I would]. Like housing in the 90s, it's only going to go up in value.

I have a test press of my favorite album of all time. Only cost me $90. I wouldn't sell it for under $5000, because it's that cool to me.
