Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Latvians celebrating their first ever bronze.

According to the Kuz (Ben Kuzma) the Canucks are super high on this Sandin Pellika, could be a ruse though Well he's a swede so the narrative fits. Seriously though, I wouldn't mind that pick. #crapshoot Yeah, I like the scouting reports on him. He`s a shrimp though! We need assholes... He has spen...

Yeah, it's a beautiful city! Lots and lots of fantastic Art Noveau buildings that were built during the brief period of independence they had between the world wars. I should go there again. It's been a while.

And here's a song from the new improved Soviet Union.... pfP7lTXYeJg Not only do they pledge to defend the Kuriles, which Japan still claims to be theirs and illegally occupied, the Baltic shores, which kind of implies a threat to the independent Baltic states, and Crimea, which still is internation...

If we are going for Ostalgie, here is a song from Eastern Germany.
Nina Hagen before she defected to the West and became the queen of German punk rock.



Also the song Angela Merckel requested to have a military band play at her stepping down ceremony when leaving office.

Bobrovsky is 6’2 182 Fleury 6’2 185 The best goalies need to be wiry and really thin. Silovs 6’4 203 That fat bastard doesn’t need more strength. He needs to develop anorexi. Get him down to 190 and he’s gold instead of bronze. Yeah... he might have to play on another team than Latvia though to ach...

Damnit! That article was from 1994. just three years after independence... :o Someone yelled that soldiers were coming to drive them from the barricades, and who knew what might follow? Arturs Irbe would not leave, could not leave. He would stop them. He would be Ka Muris . Like wall. After Soviet f...

Can you believe they won with this roster? :lol: Well, everyone had crappy rosters this year, which at least in part explains why Germany and Latvia could be so competitive. But, no excuses. Canada won, Germany reached their first final and Latvia earned their first ever medals. Congrats to all thr...

The Russians were doing their best to ensure that Hillary would not become president, and succeeded in achieving that. Really? Did Michael Steele have zero russian sources (no) or were his russian sources also feeding him bad information he was all to eager to report to his client? At the end of th...

now this Kratsov

don't sign any -ov players

just like don't sign any more player whose name starts with poo- or pou-

Or dudes with hyphenated last names, or names that rhyme with Tyre fires.

So, I take it you don't want Sandin-Pellika?

Probably works even better if the water is really really cold.

Creatures of the Congo.

It is fascinating that they could show the locals photos of sauropods and a triceratops.
I had no idea that cameras had been around for that long.

So.... roughly half of all Britons, Scandinavians, Germans, French, Spanish, Dutch, Greek, etc, and a quarter of all Canadians, are not welcome?

This could be disastrous for Florida's tourism industry.

Silovs robbed us. :( Sweden won the shots 41-15 (13-8; 13-1; 16-5), but lost the game 3-1. Probably good news for the Canucks, though. :look: ... and congrats to Latvia for making the world championships semifinals for the first time ever! :thumbs: Let's hope our loss wasn't totally wasted and that ...
