Snow must have called the second time to ensure that we weren't taking Ho-Sang at 24... Sigh. I can't say that I enjoyed anything about that video. I envisioned more decisiveness from Guru Jim. He looked sedated.

I think anyone would swallow a few tranquilizers after talking to Snow

Feck sakes, what an a*sshole, my apologies for my idiotic comment earlier, I can only blame premature senelity. I hope all is going well for you and the family under such difficult circumstances

Anyone on here not have cable or satellite? Just internet? I am thinking of dropping TV provider altogether and just stick with netflx and apple tv.

F cable, only use Internet. Until they allows us to pick our own options, I'm out. They group 30 channels of poop for the one I want. F that.

That is how i am feeling right now and most of the time the kids are watching their shows on Netflix. 60 for internet 45 for phone and 130 for cable. Take away cable and phone and you have a $60 dollar bill. Any show you want you can get online.

That's just it, I got a promotion where all three were 3 dollars cheaper than what I was paying for just internet. I switched and used cable like twice in that six months. Just ends up pissing me off how much crap is on TV.

Do you know if you can get centre ice through xbox one? Thinking about dropping cable as well.

YEs. Cable is overrated. Christ Howard the duck and Jurassic park lost world is on. seriously how many times can you play that crap on TV. I have like 4 or 5 shows that I watch thats it. I think between apple tv and netflix I can make due.

I tried a few last year, but always found they were too choppy.

Center ice isn't bad if you are steaming from your region.

I was using the vlc program to stream in HD. Was good, just grab the stream links off of reddit. Was a bit to figure out but worked really well. Not sure if that still works or not though.

I got a sweet deal on cable last year through Rogers. Home phone, super high speed and a bunch of channels. I even had HBO and my bill was $100/ month.

I have to agree though, being able to pick your own channels is the only way to go.

I dont mind this signing. Not much of a risk at a million. If he can't play, send him down.

I think those are good signings *waiting to have my head put on a pike*. As I predicted a while back, I will bet that Booth gets 20+. As far as Santo, it's a bit more up in the air, as I think he won't be able to get the same ice-time as he did here. But he'll be, at the very least, a good utility player that can slot in where needed
- Zogg

I actually think Santorelli will have a better year than Booth. Reason being I have questions whether Booths head is in the game. Santos head is in the game.

Interesting point. Although I think it's probably a little unfair to judge him simply by his somewhat eccentric life-style (I'm sure many players have boinked moose, cuddled with yaks (#FreeFosco!) or wore their girlfriend's frilly furry boas for their kinky girlfriend's enjoyment *wait, was that out loud?* .

He does certainly seem like a bit of a character. But the question is, can he get back to the Florida Booth a few years ago.

Its not about his life style or his eccentricity it is about his focus. A person can be eccentric as F@ck and still have a main focus even more so than normies. I don't think he has that, he has the natural ability and athleticism but his focus isn't there. Hence the last 2 season.

It's all Tortz fault, he'll score 40 under the uber offence guru Carlyle.

You can get nhl gamecenter through xbox. $150 for the season last year. You need xbox live gold though and all the games were like 2 minutes behind which gets annoying if you're on HB while watching the games.

It streams realtime if your watching gamecenter from your computer though and you can hook it up to the tv via HDMI.

You cant watch games if its on tv in your market though...so if its on national tv, nhl network, or on any canucks game if you live in vancouver, you cant watch it...

Sarcasm obviously but on the real was torts really that brutal last year for you guys? His offensive gave you headache but gabby still scored over 40 twice under him, nash was on pace for 40 duringthe lockout year, and stepan broke out damn near a ppg player the lockout year too.
