For sure it was just an impulse buy as it was on sale and we rarely se Okanagan wines on sale here.

Been buying a lot of the Castillo de Almansa Reserva from Spain. Great value and wine for $14.99

Just lend Lucic to The Roxy as a door man/bouncer.

I wonder how many times he would hear the question: “Don’t you know who I am?”

I think it cost more to make a bottle of wine in the Okanagan than anywhere else in the world.

You guys seem intent on speeding up the rebuild and making the playoffs next year. ONE first round pick for one of the top 15? wingers in the league, signed for 8 years sounds like a pretty good deal.

Personally, I want the team to suck again and get gradually less suckey by continuing to draft well, and push the old fat slow dogs out.

how do I sound like I wanna speed up the rebuild? I wanna keep our 1st.

Where theres smoke, theres usually fire. It's a totally plausible scenario, LE being traded. I'd be fine with it as long as its not 1 for 1. LE and 10th for Lucic + Puljijarvi + 8th. It would have to be a big enough sweetener to take on that extra year.

How does 1 more year deserve that much of a sweetener?

You can get something decent from South America or Portugal for $15. Not great, but better than Gretzky’s private reserve.

Buddy of mine just tipped me off to a southern French Grenache/Syrah that’s on sale for just under $14. Les 5 Terroirs from Ventoux. BCL listing. Haven’t tried yet but heard good things.

I hit the Okanagan pretty much every year to stock up on the good items we can't get in Alberta. Mt Boucherie, Rollingdale, Little Straw...mostly the Mom/Pop places I tend to stay away from the big ones Mission Hill, Quails Gate etc...

It’s a 3 way deal with lucic, Eriksson and Neal

Van gets lucic
Edm gets Neal and Eriksson

Everyone wins

Go read the Edmonton blog. They seem to be under the impression they’re not really going to have to add to the supposed trade, and if anything vancouver is coming from a weaker position because we want Lucic.

Talk was both teams would retain salary on each player and then they could be moved a second time with salary retained again to a bargain-hunting team.

Problem with that theory is that, even if they could move Lucic again, the Canucks would then have retained salary on Lou, Ericksson and Lucic. Aren't you allowed to retain on a maximum of 3? That would prevent the Canucks from using that strategy on Sutter or Tanev later which would impair their ability to maximize returns there.

Better off just giving Ericksson the Sam Gagner special.

TSN is referencing a writer on the Athletic who thinks the rights to some unsigned prospect from the 6th round in 2015 is all Edm should have to add.

When did Edmonton fans become just as dumb as Leafs fans? Is there a specific number of years of losing that completely separates a fanbase from reality? If so, where are the Canucks on that countdown clock?
