What's funny is prock ranting in a closed blog about the Blue Jays and that west coasters have never won anything so they have no right to support THEIR baseball team...

yeah, it was a pretty good tantrum. i was tempted to cut and paste it onto here but, we'll let it sit there for posterity.

i particularly loved, "They're not welcome. They're the losers with nothing. These are our teams."

Well actually you can, thanks so much for offering this is really big of you....so could you please go to all the leafs blogs (:yuckand ask all their fans to stay well clear of the canucks blog, even if by chance a canucks poster makes a reference about a leafs ( ) player. I know it's like heroin to you guys, and you're all jittery and scratching at scabs, but cold turkey is the best policy here.

Thanks CC you're awesome for doing this...oh BTW you don't need to report back your progress if fact you don't need to come back at all, thanks again, see ya

As I'll soon be living just outside Vancouver, I assume that I'm welcome......?

He admitted to not even liking baseball or watching it, but the Jays are his team and not ours.

He has to be the most juvenile poster on hockeybuzz. He's never made a good point, and just constantly gets in pissing matches over the stupidest of things. I'd really like to meet him one day, just to put a face to the name.

Just an FYI, you won't be able to root for the Jays or leafs after you move. They are no longer your team, just ask prock.

I think rogers was giving free access to their cell phone customers.

but yeah, if consumers feel they are being taken advantage of, they go to other options like grey market streaming which is apparently legal in Canada.

Legal in Canada ...I like it

As an Englishman, I just feel privileged that I'm even allowed to like baseball...

if it is like streaming movies, it is legal, but actually downloading is supposed to be against the law. (I'm no lawyer so don't call me from jail... )

Well it's a lot better than watching that cricket crap.
To be honest, soccer is becoming unwatchable. I was a huge Chelsea fan for years, but the games are so boring and the diving makes it difficult to become invested in the outcome.

Awwww yeah. Got tickets to the Nov 2nd game in Montreal. Hope we are still in the mix by then.

Cricket is awesome... my dad is an umpire and since retiring from his regular job has travelled all over to watch/umpire.... worst case it's an excuse to drink in the sun


Sadly diving has taken over soccer..... I blame Chelsea

If you could go to jail for watching games illegally I'd probably be there now

My birthday!

Also, how did you end up a nucks fan in Burlington? Are you affiliated with the school there?

So I just did a bunch of number crunching on the schedules for all 30 teams based off a google spreadsheet from here: http://www.ontheforecheck...7-super-schedule-released

I decided to break it down further and added columns for miles traveled vs. league average as a ratio, # of B2B games vs. league avg as a ratio and miles traveled for B2B games vs. league average as a ratio. (I need to get a frickin' job soon).

I then took those ratios and summed them to see who has the worst schedule for 2016-2017. Drum roll please. Note: I did not weight anything so some may consider this useless as they may feel B2B's are tougher than overall travel or that travel between B2B's should be weighted higher (e.g. B2B between LA and ANA is 16 miles, lol)

BTW, 1 would represent average.

1. SJS - 1.0924
2. DAL - 1.0878
3. MTL - 1.0830
4. BOS - 1.0794
5. COL - 10732
6. EDM - 1.0643
7. ARI - 1.0561
8. VAN - 1.0549

Easiest went to Nashville with a 0.8232

I don't watch basketball either, it's a stupid sport.
Why are you a Canucks fan if you aren't from Vancouver?

Back in high school, I started hanging out with a new group of friends that were all hockey fans. I had no real knowledge of hockey outside of John Leclair (his father was a family friend). The new group of friends would throw down on NHL 94 and do big tournaments. All the other common teams in this area were taken. Boston, Montreal, Pittsburg, Rangers, etc. So, I needed to find a team to use... I saw some Bure highlights and was instantly sold. I started using Vancouver and have been a fan since.
