It's the fast food of wine. Every bottle and every vintage tastes exactly the same.

You could pay more for worse, but you can definitely find better at the same price.

I was thinking Cindy Crawford, but as you describe it, maybe you want to puke it up after you finish the bottle, just like a super model?

Just leaving camp...

I watched them scrimmage for about 15 minutes, the first thing that struck me is how very young they all look and are. Really lean kids! Secondly, even with a program it's hard to look at and recognize all of them in a short amount of time.

Standouts, Brock Boeser, the kid was going 80%, unlike most of the others, and he was heads above all the other forwards in terms of pure talent. Juolevi is really poised with the puck, tall lean kid with excellent wheels.

Never heard of Jacob Sweeny before but he's a frickin monster of a kid!

After the scrimmage they brought all the dmen back out for drills, this allows me a smaller sample size to look at. What stood out, Troy Stetcher, holy crap that kid is an extremely gifted skater, so much better than most others. Brisebois is also an effortless skater, but he's a thin kid. Carl Neil, Juolevi, Stetcher and Brisebois were their best kids....today anyways.

Oh, they all came out to sign autographs for the kids, I met eye to eye with demko, big kid!!

I remember saying back when Stetcher was signed that it is just like getting a second round pick for free. I know you say he will be an AHL player but just maybe he might make the Canucks in two years. From what he showed at the NCAA tourney , he is slick skilled and smart.

My take is if a few prospects show much promise all good.
The returnees should rise above if any future is in the cards.
Prefer to see the D stand out mostly but any surprise is welcome.

He was the top free agent college signing and I wouldn't be surprised if he makes the team in a few years. It will be very interesting to see how him and Subban compare in Utica this year as they are likely both competing for the same spot next year.

There's not many risk free moves, but this is one of them.

I left to raid the GF's garden, 2 ice cream buckets of golden raspberries, 9 cucs, beets, peas, radishes, and a red cabbage. Much more fun than what was going on earlier.

I'm not sure this is a better option. Better go back to drinking...

I won't judge. Marwood might take you off his recipe list though. . .
