I know I said it ain't over till it's over but with the Kings win and the Canucks SO loss the other night. It ended. Then Vegas OT win last night.

Not getting that extra point hurt them this season.

Minytukov, C. Gauthier, Ryan Chesley are the 3 I'm looking at around that 16th spot.

It's a very very very tight window. Canucks have zero margin for error, and hope one of those teams stumbles just enough. But ya, losing to Ottawa hurt

Can we Back To The Future things... like jump into Doc Brown's DeLorean and go back to just before Benning was hired originally and show FA all of Benning's future blunders and horrible press conferences so that maybe he never gets hired in the first place? Or will that send us on a worse timeline maybe?

Time to create electric zamboni
- manvanfan

They've been around for awhile. We looked at a fleet replacement to electrics for the ice machines but right now they are still working the kinks out and they aren't quite cost effective. Plus outside of warranty when parts/battery issues arise it's massive dollars. They are 50-60K more and don't work as good as the best natural gas models at present but they will someday. I could see the nest fleet change to full electrics in 6-7 years. Plus getting parts for natural gas filling stations is getting very hard. It's coming but kinks need to be worked out. Just because it's electric doesn't mean it's better...yet.

Gillis said that after 6 years he looked back and wished he would have done quite a few things differently. Could have kept him and maybe in another 6 years he would have learned how to do the job.

Could have started the rebuild in 2020

It will be interesting to see where this goes. In Canada we are required to do emissions testing twice per I wonder what it is in the States.

My neighbour who works for hydro and I were talking about electric vehicles. If 2030 is "the date", he should they should have started preparing for it 5 years ago.

I plan on buying hybrid myself.

Also talked about how the human race is pretty stupid and with very simple solutions could not "solve" but significantly lessen some of the "problems" that we face.

I don't think McDavid is a "hold my beer" kind of person. More of a "hold my appletini while I call OSHA"

Should have started in 2012 after the blowout loss in the PO's. Kesler should have been the first to go. #Gillis lol

With Oliver Ekman-Larsson/Tyler Myers pair on the ice 5-on-5 last night against Ottawa, the #Canucks outshot the Senators 12-7, scored a goal and allowed a goal.

In all other minutes, Ottawa outshot Vancouver 20-15 and outscored them 2-0.

This blue line needs a lot of work.


Not one game. OMG no.

Panthers 116 pts
Oilers 96 pts

Maybe McPlayoffs should concentrate on team goals instead of being so focused on personal goals.
