Carol Schram: Sizing up Eastern Conference opponents in the possible Canadian Division If the All-Canadian Division becomes a reality to start next season, the Vancouver Canucks could be facing some tough foes from the Eastern Conference representatives of that division.

Thx Carol

I don’t see Melnyk wanting to spend more. He’s tight for revenues & not a ceiling cap team.

Cheers Carol.

I forgot all about the drama in Ottawa with Hoffman and his wife.

With JB's penchant for targeting people with upstanding character, I guess we can put that rumour of Hoffman signing here to bed.

Well written, and good assessment, Carol. It'll be fun if it shakes out like that.

Whats the skinny today?

Hockey?

Detroit might be an idea for Loui. They have an emerging young group of sweds, framing Loui as a mentor. Speculation.

Podz is getting points? That's swell
I appreciate people posting clips, I don't care enough to track them down. Maybe when he comes to NA. I am the king of links, so if anyone is a glutton for punishment, I can hook you up with links to live SKA or whatever European league you need.
I can't sit through a 3 hour game in all Russian. Not that hard core.

Benning. Genius. (put me in my group)


Pop culture.
Star Wars. Original 3 all the way. Prequels were diminishing returns. New Trilogy started with a bang, ended with a whimper. Identity politics took over in SWTLJ and that's never what Star Wars was about.

The Timothy Zane books would have made a good blueprint, but Disney tried to flush all that. Funny now they are backpedalling and mining that stuff for ideas, as todays Hollywood can't have an original thought. (example Grand Admiral Thrawn)

One thing that always bugged me....New Hope. Ben Luke on the Falcon for the first time. Ben used the helmet with the blast shield down (I can't see Ben!) and the ball droid to help Luke experiencing the Force the first time. (It was like I could see it Ben) But episode 2 the younglings are doing the same thing. George retroactively made it the way they are trained, when Ben was just using the crap that was around to help this kid see.


Mando episode two....good stuff
