NZ has very relaxed liquor laws, especially compared to BC.
pubs and bars stay open late.
kids allowed in pubs (more family friendly environments).
booze is cheap, readily available and socially acceptable.

They kinda treat booze like you guys treat cannabis.

Definitely has some negative consequences

It was kinda an anti-mask joke...

But yes, BC’s liquor regulation is a joke. This would be an appropriate spot to include a video of Vincent explaining hash bars to Jules.

I read this morning there’s 47 total cases in Australia with a population of 25 million due to imposing proper restrictions which the public generally followed.

They don’t have Alberta & USA on their border. 🤪

#NYR prospect Karl Henriksson is the next Swede to miss the upcoming World Juniors due to a positive covid-19 test, as reported by
@adamjjohansson
. Another huge blow to the Swedish team as he was likely going to be the team’s first line center.

According to
@cmoresport
, 2021 draft eligible forward William Eklund will be stopped from participating in the World Juniors. This due to a positive Covid-19 test. A huge loss for the Swedish team as Eklund has been a breakthrough player in the SHL this season.

----------------
Canada just shuts down the whole camp. Good thing they got started early.

According to some previous projected line ups, that means that Arvid Costmar might be 1LC for Sweden.

Too bad though, Eklund has been really good so far in Sweden. Like way better than last years top Swedish picks.

On this day 31 years ago, Tony Tanti became 1st player in @Canucks history to put up 100 power play goals. He had 2 PPG that night in LA vs Kelly Hrudey.

FWIW, Tanti is 3rd all time on #Canucks PPG list. With 102, he trails only Daniel Sedin (138) & Markus Naslund (114).

So hard to rank players of yesteryear having only read about them.

#11 - #20

Mark Messier
Doug Harvey
Steve Yzerman
Maurice Richard
Jaques Plante
Denis Potvin
Phil Esposito
Alex Ovechkin
Nick Lidstrom
Marty Brodeur

- Pacificgem

I think you have Plante a little high. I'd put Roy and Sawchuk ahead of him. You're right though. It's very subjective and not an easy list to make after the first 5 or so.

Bit old and out of date. 1st one listed is Washington Caps who won the SC that year.
I wonder what the list looks like now

Since the stone age. Remember I said the top 22 richest people in the world have the same amount of wealth as the poorest 3.6 billion people.

It's why they're not worried about losing a season.

Mayweather is fighting Logan Paul in a "special exhibition on feb 20. 2021



All the homers will be out saying Logan Paul can take Mayweather. Probably the same ones that thought Conor belonged in a boxing ring with Mayweather too.

If LE is owed only $1M in salary for the season why would Canucks say no to waiving him?

If they LTIR Ferland guess they don't need to waive LE to be compliant.

But if there is a chance to stick him in Utica and let him decide, to stay or not, isn't that worth a $200K gamble to do it?

That's an interesting video.

The new kid Ryan Garcia is fun to watch but he just knocks everyone out in the first round.
