(frank) you Alexander!!!!!!!

Ya. South America has really overrun them in terms of affordable and tasty. I find their upper level stuff too expensive and mediocre. Kind of like Californian wines these days. Too much money for the decent stuff when you can get Spanish or Argentinian/Chilean for way cheaper.

That's a shame for sure. Lots of good wine from the US, but anything that's not the bottom of the barrel or Two buck Chuck and it's like $35 a bottle... Would rather have a nice Amarone if I'm spending that

You are bang on my friend. Telling people this for years.

We all don't have your booze budget.

Years ago, we had a guy on our team who was arguably our best player. Off the ice, nice, quiet guy - he was a franking accountant, for frank's sakes.

On the ice, there was a switch. He turned into an absolute psycho if anybody got near him. We could all see it coming - he would get bumped, and 5 of us on the bench would try to pull him off the ice as quick as possible - which never worked. You could see the short fuse burning, burning, burning, and then kabloooom! - he'd take a stupid, stupid penalty. Run a guy, cross-check a guy, whatever.

And then after the game he would go on a tirade about how the refs sucked, they are always picking on him, blah blah blah. Every franking time. Completely oblivious to how he was hurting our team. Completely. Franking. Oblivious.

I left the team, and a few years later, he got thrown out of the league for cross-checking a guy in the head and breaking his orbital bone. In a franking Tuesday night men's league - wtf?

Did I mention he was a Habs fan?

P.S. I'm guessing half of the guys reading this have played with a guy exactly like him, and you are nodding your heads in agreement.

JT with 45 goals.
Most goals and points ever in his career.
Waste of cap space. Fire Dubas.

My wife tells a funny story:

She had a co-worker whose kids (university age) were having friends over and helping themselves to wine. The guy didn't mind, but he didn't appreciate them drinking the more expensive bottles.

So his rule to the kids was:

Drink you age (the bottle of wine should be roughly the same price as your age).

I like the rule for weekends.

For weekdays? Not so much.

I'm still baffled by anyone who didn't see this coming.

The man finally plays for a good team, with good players.

He's currently the Leafs best player, might be the best FA signing of the decade if you ask me.

Of course that could all change once Panarin signs in Montreal this summer... but that's another (dream) story.

When we go to parties, I always buy a $10.99 bottle of wine, but then I put it in an LCBO Vintages gift bag.

Sorry about that, hockey makes me a little cray cray.

If you are going to dream about the Habs, do it in the Habs thread.

Bracco leads the ahl in scoring. Props to the kid.
