I live in the Cariboo and I didn't get bent out shape. We have had a nice spring and it is currently 25 degrees outside. Just relax and quit trying to be the spokesperson for everybody else.

Sign Vey and trade Markstrom. I'm grabbing a beer and heading to the lake. Bring on October.

Excited for NHL 15? Just got a PS4 thinking i could go and buy a hockey game, until i realized they didnt release one on PS4 last year

Yah, I got a ps4 when they first came out. Was not happy nhl 14 wasnt available. However nba 2k14 and Mlb the show are both exquisit.

He's been doing well in the AHL but has under 20 NHL games on his resume. Tough to find a comparable. 2 years at $1.25m?

I thought of upgrading from my PS3 right away but then realized how few games were out on PS4 at the time so held off. I actually haven't played anything since January. Would you say the PS4 is worth getting now?

Just finished Watchdogs, its a really fun game. Kinda repetitive with the campaign as far as the objectives go, but the story keeps you interested i guess. Plus the game doesnt stop, theres still other things to do like side jobs and stuff.

I havent played anything else but its definitely worth a play IMO. That being said, i wouldnt go out and buy a PS4 JUST to play Watchdogs.

Never too old. Different generation i understand.
- BlazinMike


Agreed. Have played the EA NHL Series since I was a teenager. I'm really looking forward to see what the series will evolve in to on the generation of console, specifically Xbox One.

The thing that pi$$es me off about both next generation consoles is that neither of them have 3D Blu-Ray... the PS3 had 3D blu-ray for (frank)sakes! After doing some research, it appears both will be available with future software downloads in the future. I decided to go with Xbox One because I like their driving games better (Forza, Project Gotham Racing, etc)

@VanCanucks: "If young players come into camp and earn a spot on the team, they'll be on the team. We want them here" - Benning

but we have heard that song before.

- PetrolSexual


I think fans will be surprised by how few rookies make the team out of camp this year. They'll really have to blow management away.

My guess is 1 forward. Outside chance of a D-man.

Only way more make the team is if Benning pulls off another trade and ships someone out.

Agreed. We just seem to have too many players in contention on 1-way contracts at the moment.

He looks like he has potential but hasn't proved anything yet. Yr.1/$900K, Yr.2/$1.1K.

And I'd actually prefer it that way. At this point - whether it's a re-tooling/re-build/retooling-rebuild/retoobuild etcetc I'd rather have the prospects continue to develop instead of getting fairly minimal minutes on the big team. As you said, unless there is someone who REALLY stands out (and not just as compared to other prospects) but in general

Been speculated since Benning got hired, kind of bizarre with the amount front office executives they have now. Linden/Benning/Gilman/Henning/Weisbrod. Not sure what to think of it.

Weisbrod was the ring leader of the "Jankowski in the first round" train as well.
