Miller's not getting traded. It's best that he plays out his contract and walks for nothing. It's a Canuck tradition.

Well done Carol.

I will admit to pretty much tuning out the CFL the past 5 years or so as the product has become almost un-watchable. Having said that this version of the Lions and Rourke have me tuning back in again and may even attend the game vs the Stamps. Seahawks are going to have some ugly years it appears so back to the Lions it may be lol. Plus the CFL games are well broadcast in stunning 4K!

Never thought rourke would be this good so fast but let’s see how he does against a great defence like the stamps and bombers.

Main & Hastings right now.

I’m just glad I live in the country so peacefull and I got good neighbours close enough if I really need help with something I can count on them.

The one loss this year did come against Wpg. I covered that game, too. Lions were out of sync right from the start that night, on both sides of the ball.

I'm super curious to see how they match up against Cgy, probably one notch below?

Jurmo's skating drew the holding penalty that led to Finland's 3rd goal, on the subsequent PP.

Or maybe we might trade him at the TDL for like a 3rd or 4th

Nobody wants a 50pt player for a 3rd, especially a Canucks player...try 6th or 7th.

Week 1 started August 5, Arsenal @ Crystal Palace. I think you mean real fake football (vs fake fake football)

Yes, Newcastle actually won their 1st match.

I recall JB saying once teams back east don't value Canuck's players due to the time change.

Came across this beauty JB interview.

"We’re going to be fine going forward. We’ve got lots of cap space, a lot of expiring contracts, in the next couple of years, so I don’t worry about that."

Lol downward projections always a good Canuck meme.

So will offers go up on JTM playing the patience game? Like those teams that lose out on adding the available players up their offers. Perhaps the dominoes effect on competition needing to add make offers on JTM?

Lions have good receivers as well and I would say the best in the cfl depth wise, 4 really good ones and vans own Jevon cottoy who I really like, the guys a beast with great hands.

Benning was right about 1 thing, they got a PP specialist when they drafted Hughes.

I do have more confidence in the new regime.

Yeah sounds like management is hoping for that to up offers before the TDL.

What seems to worry many is if the Canucks have a real shot at the playoffs they might pass on the offers to trade. But then not be able to sign JTM to a reasonable contract.

Just in time for the playoffs! They could still make a JT Miller trade

Jury is still out for me, but trying to remain positive after the Benningitis.

I got a shot of ivermectin today, so I should be good.

Ryan Suzuki and a 2nd❤

Carol brought up the CFL and in particular the BC Lions, they have been a fun team to watch.

A Bo Horvat extension by the start of the season? On the J.T. Miller trade return
Taj: Satiar Shah on Sportsnet 650 on Vancouver Canucks Bo Horvat: “Everything I hear on Bo is it’s still on track to get done…sense is Bo will be signed before the NHL season begins.”

Taj: Satiar Shah on Sportsnet 650 on the J.T. Miller trade return: “They can probably still get what they were offered at the deadline as the season goes on but they prefer to get one really good (premium) player back.”

Thanks Carol!

Hopefully team Canada can keep it in their pants.
