Fair enough,

Try not to make posts that are critical or demeaning of my opinions..

- Makita

sure.

I will probably continue to post things that the team is doing well though.

P.s. if that leads you to believe i'm planning a parade. Well nothing I can do about that.

When they are not trading away their top picks it means they are building through the draft. Notice they haven't traded away their 1st round picks.(Not players) A couple now are ready to have an impact in JV and BB.

So the build has been happening and you'll see the two highest picks in OJ and EP accelerate their development playing against men.

Though they traded for position between former top 3 1st rounder Guddy and prospect extra 1st pick Mcann. Plus dumped a MG dud to get Granlund.

It all counts in a rebuild.

It's the quality of the rebuild. If players on ELC mean a team is rebuilding lets compare that to all the teams in the league.

Next year theyll be worse when they trade Hopkins for nothing, and have to split up Mcdavid and Drai and not be able to afford another top 6 for them

The goalies name on Victoria Royals is Griffin Outhouse. That is a really sh1tty name. Yes I went there.Calgary should draft him seeing their goalies are always on the crapper.
- VANTEL

Hes damn good though, he played midget for caribou cougars I watched a lot of him, I think hes from quesnel.

If they trade Nuge, they would have 12 mill in cap space and need to sign Strome, Letestu, Maroon, Caggiula, Benning,Nurse and Brossoit. And of course someone to replace Nuge.

Next year they'll be one year closer to McDavid leaving as a UFA.

Word is Chia is regretting the Eberle deal. Big dummy had things going in the right direction then he (frank)s it up again. He’s got a Cup ring as a GM but he’s as dumb as he is smart at times.

Chia had lots of help getting that ring, a blind person could have seen that.

Everyone has help, why the discredit? Seen what? The Eberle deal going bad? It was about money not quality of player vs player. He gave too much to Draisaitl, that was his mistake.

Edmonton signing Eberle and Nuge to 6 million dollar deals wasn’t his fault either.

I think he’s been lucky but he’s done well cleaning up the mess he was left.

You're right I don't know the specifics of your purchase. But until your file is cleared for closing you are not completely approved. I'll refrain from adding any further advisement from my years of experience in the area.

Probably shows Canucks aren't rushing their kids. Besides just looking at ELC and not type of players isn't the right analogy for example as Hawks aren't rebuilding. Also Canucks have a lot of quality prospects and are ranked 7 and likely to go up now.

After the intermission they played:

Dogs
Sheep
Pigs (three different ones)
Wish you were here
Us and them
Money
Brain damage
Eclipse
Mother
Comfortably numb

I might have it a little out of order, and he played another song from his new album as well that I don’t know.

Was a great show, I hope I have as much to offer at 74 as Roger Waters.
