GDT: Canucks host Kings April 28 7 PM PST SNP

Post by donlever »

7-1 Kings.

Edler with 7.

Speaking of the Kings, Gretzky was on Spittin' Chiclets yesterday.

Had some interesting comments about the '88 trade that sent him to LA.

3 teams were in to obtain his services at that time.

The Kings, the Wings and us.

I recall the later opportunity to acquire him that we choked away but not this one.

I remember hearing about Arthur being hot and heavy to acquire him in 88. And then McCaw tried again in 96 when he was a UFA.

Yeah...interesting.

I don't recall the Arthur thing at all.

Clearly, as you indicate, it happened so I was asleep at the wheel.

Final score 6-3

Also heard there's a new soup and sandwich combo at the arena.

Gotta explore all sources of revenue!

So where are we with the tank positioning? If we lose we draft...where?

Who's been reverse calculating?
