What no more hemp crosses with fantasy strain descriptions today?

- boonerbuck


Durban Poison
Fruity
Herbal
Minty
This pure sativa originates from the South African port city of Durban. It has gained popularity worldwide for its sweet smell and energetic, uplifting effects. Durban Poison is the perfect strain to help you stay productive through a busy day, when exploring the outdoors, or to lend a spark of creativity. Growers and concentrate enthusiasts will both enjoy the over-sized resin glands which make this strain a quality choice for concentrate extraction. The buds are round and chunky, and leave a thick coating of trichomes on almost all areas of the plant.

Meh.
They've all been given shots to stick in the NHL and haven't produced.
Gaudette produced and has stayed up.

If Leivo is injured, put JV with Bo and Pearson on the 2nd line.
Motte with Gaudette and Roussel on the 3rd.
Sutter, Beagle and Schaller/Mackewan on the 4th.

Fair points. Baertchi, Boucher and Goldy produce on the farm but don't get rewarded up here. Seems to be a mentality that Green just can't get around.

For me it's not about rewarding the depth players in Utica. Gaudette is a rookie who's made the NHL. Different altogether.

JB said so.

Excited. Outside of the top 2 in this draft there is a whole ton of soft skill.

Man, this strain produced thigh sized buds outdoors for me in the mid 90's. Was ready late September but the rippers found it.

So what is it about then?

I thought we were discussing the merits of recalling ZacMac, a grinder who will play on the 4th line, no?

@MirokiOnDefence
Gaudette before Roussel 18GP:
50.5 xGF% / 46.7 CF% / 32.9 SA/60

Gaudette w/ Roussel in 7GP:
39.0 xGF% / 40.4 CF% / 46.0 SA/60

Roussel replaced Leivo and ZacMac to replace Leivo.

At what point does the hit count turn into a victory regardless of score? We are still waiting for the hit count and battling and losing pucks *behind* the oppositions net to win the Canucks games. Green is convinced and so are many fans. Look around? This team is soft even with an abundance of checkers. Team lacks skill in the top 9 more than anything. It's a narrative only. "We dont want to be called soft" seems like a bigger concern than actually being tough to play against. Our "tougher" players are easy to play against because they cant actually move the puck. Dump and chase baby.

When you are stringing together losses, giving up leads over and over with a Green "not soft" strategy... does adding more AHL checkers turn things around? He's a fool. We dont have the physical players to play like the narrative. My point is play the best players in your system then.

If you enter a conversation mid way without back reading, it can be about many things I guess.

Thanks Carol

I agree with Pearson. I was thinking last night this is like a playoff atmosphere .

I think Donnie said in the last blog he goes drinking with Bo. That could explain why he hasn't scored at home if he is matching drink for drink.

It’s believed the new deals for Nolan Baumgartner, Newell Brown, Manny Malhotra, Darryl Seward, Glenn Carnegie and Ian Clark are one-year extensions, tying everyone in with head coach Travis Green’s deal, which runs until the end of the 2020-21 season.

Who is Darryl Seward?

I would stay out of Free agency and try to trade instead. Pageau is the only free agent I like.

Makes sure the videos are all gender neutral to keep the media happy.

Detroit is now on pace to have the worst season in the past decade.

No one talks about "the Detroit model" anymore, which was really the Russian Stevie Lidstrom model....

Friedman believes that Tanev and Leivo would have value. I'd trade both with their values high.

Buyout Sutter and Baertschi. Combined savings of 2.1 and 1.6

Would be nice to have cap space next season.
