Both nets, if he plays sheltered minutes with pp time he'll rack up the points feeding McDavid and Dre.

Glad we got a majority during these trying times, I’m ok with it as I said Horgan’s done an adequate job migrating through a global pandemic for our province. Despite being an arrogant douchè

I think you’re going to see the social conservatives fracture off from the Liberal party. I’m glad the province appears to have had a good voter turnout, I don’t care who you vote for, it’s just important to vote.

He has the will to improve. It’s the differentiator for these fringe prospects. You can already see the transformation in his game. From scoring winger to pest. He is smart enough and wants it bad enough to make adjustments. But yes, fingers crossed

People who don't should be pepper sprayed the moment they open their mouth to complain.

Or, like Australia/Luxembourg/Belgium, make it compulsory to participate in a democracy.

Pretty decent writeup on three prospects from the draft. They tend to pump their tires a bit but you never know.

Here's a novel idea, ban the stupid set up fights after the puck's dropped, and get rid of the instigator rule. You'd see a lot of the problems (and problem players) with the game start to go away and therefore less heat from politicians. Just the thought that someone can go after you without taking an instigator penalty and be kicked out of the game and if you turtle every shift you'll be getting attacked for going after say McDavid, McKinnon, Draisaitl et. al? I think you'd think twice for pulling some of the stuff "The Rat" has over the years

If Enrico Ciccone is as good a politician as he was a hockey player, we don't have anything to worry about.

Do they get a hug after voting?
I prefer pepper spraying who complain but don't participate. It feels like a civic duty.

Benning offered UFA right winger Leivo a similar deal to the one-year, US$875,000 contract he signed with Calgary on Saturday. Levio, 27, had 19 points (7-12) in 36 games last season before suffering a fractured knee cap. #Canucks

I'm happy the Canucks injury problems are signing in Calgary. Whats the over/under for man games lost with former Canucks? I'll go with 55....

I like that he's OK with people walking if not getting the value he wants. JL was a little more on the 'soft skill' side despite what some people thought. He's basically a SB

Leivo is a much stronger boards player than Sven. Sven has more skill, but Leivo could play good D and chip in offensively. A good 3rd liner to step into the 2nd line for small amounts with injuries.

55 the first season? Depends on how many games the season is

Marky, Tanev, Leivo... I'll go under on 55. Marky good for about 10-12, Tanev will miss 15, Leivo will miss 10. 37 is my guess.
