Canucks News and Notes 2016/17

Holy fuck Bubble Bath, what's with you? To say that the leaves and Oilers would still be the darlings of the league without Matthews or McDavid is proof you are very damaged by alcoholism.

I just said they have more young talent than Vancouver regardless of winning the lottery. You have trouble reading ?

RD has selective reading.

Doc has selective posting.

I can't spell.

Blob is a tiny tiny tiny tiny bit negative on our beloved GM.

But we all fracking hate Toronto SN.

To come off pretending not to be biased really pisses me off. I may be a jackass but every time I hear them having financial troubles I love it. Maybe if they stopped sticking their heads up the Jays and Laughs ass they may get more people running in.

To hear that Laughs got a A for their FA day is pure bs.

Your not a jackass at all and your not the only one that's frustrated. Sportsnet has become absolutely pathetic and we certainly haven't received any reductions in our provider costs, far from it.
The two big Alberta markets don't get as much "nose in the air" attitude as we do but they can't be happy about their regional studio being shut down either.
Hey, I'm not saying that Don Taylor & Garry Valk were a great show but this is ridiculous.
They have cut costs to the point of insanity.
How much can it cost to have a dinky little regional studio? That's all it was anyways, I know, I was in there once.
I understand running re-runs all night, I guess, however there are some entertaining programs they could be running at night but W/E.
During the day we have to watch their Toronto based talk shows which mean nothing to most of us.
The only reason they still technically call the two stations I'm referring to-(sportsnet pacific & sportsnet west), is to broadcast the local team's games. Not good enough!!!!!

I agree but as long as we have blobbers who believe automatically that because it's local it must amateur night, why would sportsnet.ca spend a nickel they don't have too?

Just so everyone knows, salary arbitration is not yet an option in regards to Bo Horvat.

I remember Doc saying be patient, this could go on til camp, but he thinks it will get done.
If there is too much difference between the sides, does anyone think he signs a one year?
I don't see it .

All the "cord cutting"" of late is filtering down to where it starts hurting I guess. I know about half of my friends have deleted their cable and run Kodi to watch the games.

A couple of friends and I share a Gamecenter account. Thanks to optic, With a few IP spoofers we just stream and don't notice any lag. Makes it nice when the team is on the road and games start at 4 or 5 PST. Was also nice this winter while I was on the east coast for a few months (other than games starting at 10 or 11 my time that is).

Gamecenter is awesome except when u deal with ghetto internet like mine. I live in bumfuck nowhere and pay 100 bucks a month for up to 10 MB/S.

Sheesh! That's bad.

I pay SEK 349 (roughly CAD 53) for 100 mbs...
We put in optic fibre some 15 years ago; same time as we switched to district heating.
They had a package deal, so adding fibre got cheaper.

Burmistrov has a some quick dekes and a nice shot, & he scored twice on Miller aha.

Holy fuck Bubble Bath, what's with you? To say that the leaves and Oilers would still be the darlings of the league without Matthews or McDavid is proof you are very damaged by alcoholism.

I just said they have more young talent than Vancouver regardless of winning the lottery. You have trouble reading ?

RD has selective reading.

Doc has selective posting.

I can't spell.

Blob is a tiny tiny tiny tiny bit negative on our beloved GM.

But we all fracking hate Toronto SN.

To come off pretending not to be biased really pisses me off. I may be a jackass but every time I hear them having financial troubles I love it. Maybe if they stopped sticking their heads up the Jays and Laughs ass they may get more people running in.

To hear that Laughs got a A for their FA day is pure bs.

I agree but as long as we have blobbers who believe automatically that because it's local it must amateur night, why would sportsnet.ca spend a nickel they don't have too?

The CFL is certainly amateur. Speaking of spending a nickel....... isn't that about the average price for a Lions ticket ?

Well, if that's what a socialist government gets you, then sign me up!

Our town got fibre optic last year because the Canadian gov't is paying the telecoms to get rural areas up to speed. It's taking time to reach everywhere, but slowly it is happening.

Yes, I worked with one of these telecoms the last few years to expand to the first dozen or so of these rural communities.

It is happening slowly and those that have gotten fibre, are happy as pig in sh*t. I also wonder if those towns that built their own network earlier are now regretting it?

Tell us has just completed their upgrades in Vancity too. Install this week for me.
