PG is always near or at the top for crime rate. You are more likely to be a victim there than most cities(or all some years). Great central location though. North coast isn't too far, Bulkley Valley is just 2 hours away, Alberta is very close, the Peace Region is just a hop over Pine Pass... Cariboo borders it to the south. Most of the people I meet from PG are decent... unlike Williams Lake. If the locals don't (frank) you over there... the police certainly will...

I could handle PG in the summer, some awesome fishing when you head West, winters, not so much. Quesnel winters are more my style.

The two towns are an hour apart. Pretty much the same winter. South Cariboo is much colder being drier and higher in elevation but it also gets much less snow... in 2005, it reached -48 at my cabin near 70 Mile. I only had one baseboard heater running while I was on the road in Kamloops... came home... there was ice in the kettle on the stove, dogs water bowl was frozen and my toilet froze and lifted off the seal. That was nasty... Nothing like listening to trees explodeding in the woods on a clear quiet -45 night

I lived in Quesnel for 18 months during the startup of the WestPine MDF plant, I thought it was milder than PG for sure.

That's damn cold

Net front player

He's a nut job... awesome job on the remix... they have dozens of good ones... some of the breaking bad ones are good.

- boonerbuck

never seen him before.....that was pretty funny though.

Your fav?

This guy actually believes they have "Child Slave Labor Camps" on Mars
- classic321

the most obvious part of this is how the hell would he know? Has he been to mars?
so much nonsense on the internet and youtube.

This bc lions game is on 3 channels. I dont like the CFL lol. I want to watch hockey!!
- Codes1087

Id rather watch any sport than anything else on tv
well, except for GoT of course.

I missed that. I'm actually still over in the Middle East working, there will be no gay pride marches over here lol.

Im assuming there would be shootings?

No...certainly some jail time though.

The same Toronto media that suggests Matthews is a better player than McDavid.
- VanHockeyGuy

that is just plain crazy, mcdavid is the real deal of generational player

Pettersson is much better than his stats show. Its evident he needs to get strong though. Less focus on weight, more focus on strength. I know they generally go hamd in hand but not if it sacrifices speed on a bony framed guy like Elias. I see lind being cut 100%. Gadjovich should grt a spot on the 4th line or spare. Dipietro imo could start, hart was brutal in the last game of the showcase. Im aldo hearing lockwood is considered a lock for usa even though only playing non contact in practice.

Matthews isnt mcdavid and never will be. Matthews is going to be an absolutely great player for the leafs for soo many years though. Hes really good.

just saw it...nice! Good hand / eye on that

No...certainly some jail time though.

ahhh so its not an assassination country then. I remember seeing this video of some arab nation and a womans face cloth slipped off for a second, they took her outside and blew her brains out. Cant believe mankind is capable of such atrocities.

Lockwood is massively underrated by this fanbase. If he can stay healthy he is going to have a huge year

The NHL gives a two minute penalty if sweaters are not tied down

Matthews isnt mcdavid and never will be. Matthews is going to be an absolutely great player for the leafs for soo many years though. Hes really good.
- Codes1087

ya hes good. But not mcdavid good.
You know i've had this opinion that a fan base often becomes like its fan media. We certainly see that in TO with its parade planning and gross overvaluing of players and in Van with the negativity and crucifying of players

What do you mean?
- boonerbuck

I meant your fav of his episodes....probably for entertainment value and laugh fest value
figured youd have an interesting choice

wifey and I just watched the new episode.

the new one has already aired today?

- VANTEL

LOL nice! You never cease to make me laugh

Brings me back to me stance on penalties. Sweater penalties, too many men penalties, delay of game, broken stick etc should not be the same length of punishment as a dangerous contact penalty, stick infraction (high sticking / crosschecking, slash), charging, head shot, boarding. Yet they are all usually 2 min

Greetings,

Summer showcase wrapup in the new blog with thoughts on DiPietro, Gadjovich and Will Lockwood.
