Big spender. That's one of the better tastings we did when we were in Napa.

Did you have Merlot or Cab Sauv?

This is definitely not the year to have a ton of draft picks. I would draft a lot of young kids. Hoping after 2 more years, someone turns out.

I've heard this draft is way deeper than last years.

Oh nice. They are known for the white. Red is good though.
I just took a 30 mins nap on the couch after dinner, wife says I'm getting old.

Nice. No matter what bottle you have next, the first few sips will be disappointing. It's the only downside to really good wine.

We've been buying some bottles in the 40-50 dollar range, California wines, really nice wines.

Check out Farm Collective if you can find it. It's a blend of a few different Cab Sauvs, about $55 at Everything Wine. It's so good.

Not as much high end talent, but deeper if your looking to fill future top6/9 and top 4/6. Much better year to get late 1st/2nd round picks.

Whatchu talking about son?

At 20 years old, Nylander is taller and weights more than Brendan ever did....and he came up in the era of clutch and grab, rough and tumble hockey....?

- Whiskey-Tango


Nice euphamism....though it was supposed to end with Willis.... lol


So guess Mo played bigger... good old tough Maple Ridge boy....

Anyway... my point to you is do you see Soft Nylander as a 1LC in this Conference...?

He just doesn't have the moxy for a little guy either ....you get me... son

He's already thrown up 14 points (would be leading the Nucks) in 18 games as a 20 year old, albeit mainly on the wing.

In 3/4 years I don't see why not. It's not the 80s anymore, the league has systematically been moving towards a speed and puck possession type game. If you can skate and handle the puck with a high degree of skill, all of which Nylander has already demonstrated in this young season, you can be successful.

There's no hight or weight restriction concerning success, look at the guys leading the league in points right now......................

Morrison, like a lot of college kids, developed or soaked until he was 22 or 23, I think that really helps young players. He still played over 900 games in the league.

I hope they're successful moving the draft age back to 19.

What is more important for this team now....

entertain the fans with a style and effort that can be watched while improving the team through all means ( quality draft, free agents, development, trades for position and future needs.

OR....

make sure this team stays as bad as possible by all means (tear it all down and play the clowns) for the next X number of years to guarantee high draft picks...?

Safe to say Canucks should have taking Nylander, larkin or Eilers before they took the entitled Jake Virtanen.

Just got home from 'Hacksaw Ridge', holy cow, I feel for those men that fought in the two world wars.

And while I'm at it, I'm sorry for being so insensitive Don, you're not dumb.

Ok I feel better now....
