20 Years of the Corner!

I just realized that CanucksCorner has been around for 20 seasons!

That's a long time to keep a website going and I'd like to thank Brian for starting and maintaining this site throughout the years. The web and this site have evolved over two decades, and we still have a great place to talk hockey.

CanucksCorner is older than Google.

I've been here for quite a while and have always appreciated the level of discussion, the humour and this site still gives me a 'connection' back to Canada.

Here's a look back to the oldest archive I could find - 2001

Congratulations Brian!

Seems like yesterday.

Yup, yours truly has been around since Day One.

(started posting as a teenager?) :look:

But someone refresh my memory, how long was it before the breakup (branch off to the Corner).

And what year was it that Central had to shutdown for the summer?

(Centralites flooded the Corner for a coupla months, invoking Lever's wrath)

I’m sorry but this doesn’t add up. I know you were around from the beginning at both sites and claim to have been posting since 1994( you and Al Gore). But you were a teenager when you started ? Yet you go on and on about being just a bit younger than the Clark Parker’s which would put you comfortably in your 50’s. Somethings not adding up to the smell test Good Doctor

Did you miss the... :look: ... Detective Blob?

Did you miss all my posts about the time machine

... and the fact yours truly has disappeared for months on end numerous times over the years?

You young whippersnappers old farts should pay more attention to detail!! :evil:

Don't recall ever saying 1994 but if so it must have been a rare Strangelove typo....

Just out of curiosity, what was Lever's beef with this place?
