He will need a hobby in his retirement to smooth it over.

Maybe he can map out all the possible landing spots for the Sedins and their return value. That will keep him busy

I suggest golf.

Lets do something constructive since I have an hour left at work.

What Prospects would you target at 1-15 in the draft?

My brother missed the New Year's Eve Lotto 649 by one number for 20 mil. He had 30 and it was 31 or vice versa. He won close to 3 000. Quick pick

I have also missed out on a 7 mil jackpot . I had a 7 and it was 9. I got 1004 dollars.

My father also was off by one number once and got 1400 .

What are the chances of that happening to 3 people in one family

Just like the Canucks, you and yours choke when you're oh so close.

I can't wait to retire, pay more video games, complain about how the Canucks still haven't won the cup.

The whole team stunk except Strome. Christ sakes we had a shoot out against Switzerland . If anyone couldn't figure out right there that this wasn't a good team, doesn't know much

This is what I was damn straighting about BTW.

"Chris Higgins, Radim Vrbata, Yannick Weber, Burrows and Prust have all, to varying degrees, been productive NHL players throughout their careers, but right now they carry the weight of being yesterday’s men. Presumably some, or all, will be moved at the trade deadline for what they can fetch. But does it make any sense to keep playing Higgins when Brendan Gaunce has 18 points in 21 games in Utica and Hunter Shinkaruk has 25 in 26 games?"

You talk about the process and development.

Yes, snatch the kids out of the AHL when they are just beginning to find their stride and bolt them to the bench with 8 or 9 minutes a night in the NHL.

I remember way, way back, with the initial "Olympic Lottery" (montreal?) my grandmother had the 1st 6 numbers. Missed the 7th (and last) by 1 ....
Next draw she had the 1st 6 and missed the 7th by 3

Got squat. secondary prizes were based on getting last 3, last 4 etc.

You sure it's not all virtanen's fault?

Ya me too. You know the kid cares a lot. Kid threw a lot of solid hits during the tourney, and was a solid net front presence. Hopefully he doesn't take too much of the criticism too hard

John Tortorella excited to start new feuds with Vancouver reporters. Earlier today, referred to Jason Botchford as Jason female dogford. #Canucks

With a number of veteran players gone the younger guys will get minutes. Travis Green said those two kids have come a long ways and they've earned an opportunity. I feel the same way.

You can't bring up Gaunce, it'll hurt Shink's feelings.
