(have to keep up the reputation of this forum)

np i complain about 1040 and still listen, i'm a glutton for punishment. just like hearing Canuck talk, different perspectives... usually only way to hear those perspectives is from guests to the shows though...
- hillbillydeluxe

On my way home last night I spent too long listening to BMac and Taylor giggle at their dumb jokes and obscure hockey references before spending the first portion of the pregame show talking about the New West Bruins. By the time I realized I wasnt getting the Canuck talk I wanted to hear I was home

I think Horvat should be above Granlund, but the way WD has deployed the lines, it is often hard to figure out which line is which beyond the top line, as in 2,3,4... looking at ice time, pp and pk screw up the totals.

Lots of centres, lots of options. I hope Cassels can get healthy and continue developing.

I think they are moving further into the muddled line up so they can roll all 4.

That being said, I really like the new Sven-Granlund-Virtanen line. I think without Bo being there to lead the line, Sven has stepped up to be the go-to player and its been impressive so far. Their styles seem to compliment each other well

Wow, it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better with the "hysteria"

Some of the quotes coming out of Town Hall are going to provide lots of ammunition to criticize mgmt with.

I agree, that line has been impressive. Granlund is a really good puck distributor and does everything at speed.

little, little doses wouldn't be so bad, but it is the same for the morning show...

another peeve is when they replay audio of tv segments -award shows, whatever and half the time I can't understand what is being played back, poor quality

too much bickering on that afternoon/evening show when they have 4 or more people talking over each other...

Agreed, it isnt that Granlund is better than Bo but the style suits the straight-line JV and crafty Sven better. Bo is a straight line power player and probably is better suited with someone like Etem

Ya I'm not sure if one is better than the other but I have definitely liked what I've seen out of the Granlund line.

Bo with Vey and Gaunce looked good last night as well.

Noticed Gaunce on the fore check too.

I've watched a few clips from the old Leafs Lunch on TSN, with O'neil, McLennan and their host and their show sounds a million times better than what 1040 has to offer, and that includes having most conversations be about the Leafs...

Replace Vey with Hansen or Etem, go with the Abbotsford line, Sedins with Hansen/Etem and I would tune into more games down the stretch. Speed and youth would be very entertaining

True, it is funny because the 1040 guys are on the, Canucks should be doing what the Leafs are doing band wagon, maybe Vancouver TSN Radio should do what Toronto TSN radio does with their shows... be a bit more professional and actually talk Canuck hockey

Hate their 'entertainment' segments. I don't give a sh*t that it's Zaza Gabor's 93 birthday or this day in history Burt Reynolds married Loni Anderson. The twitter segment is always a total train wreck, too.

Sedins with Hansen has run it's course. Maybe Burrows back with Sedins for rest of season to drive up value?

I think Burrows only value is for a cap floor team, if he has any at all.

That's real good to hear as I did not see the game last night. We are going to need Bo to be pretty diverse in the next few years

Also, it will be very interesting to see if Vrbata even gets a contract offer this summer.

Hi,

New blog is up, looking at Daniel's big hit on Thornton last night, the standings, and a few tidbits from today's Town Hall.

- Marwood

yeah, that twitter guy is almost as bad as the regular hosts

I find the talking heads reading advertisements and promos is annoying, just play the commercial, so unpolished, not charming, I wouldn't want any of those guys giggling while they are reading my ads.

True.
