Yeah I am not very good at that. Their, there and they're has been a peeve of mine for years also. Thought it was a good chance to catch you on a spelling mistake, as you were too fast in correcting yours the other day.

The ones that get me are "would of, could of, should of" instead of "would have, could have, should have"

Rickyisms/malapropisms are my favourite

I love it when someone tries to call someone else a hypocrite and they end up calling them a hippogriff.

I think some of the blame can fall on spell check and the world being a smaller place with social media (translator apps).

The guy in the youtube has his moments, I couldn't get through the whole thing, but a lot of the mistakes he is focusing on are from posts of people who's names don't sound all that english.

it can be distracting, but the correcting can make it worse.

I am good with:

Heiskanen
Glass
Vilardi

Ok with:

Millestad
Necas
Makar

Not ok with:

Rasmussen
Liljegren

- CanuckDon

I feel like you butchered Mittelstadt

I am sort of softening my stance on Rasmussen. I think he is a longer term project. I don't see Van drafting him at 5. I would believe he's more in the 10-15 range. I also don't know if I see him as a center and more of a winger.

It is in the media. The fans seem to be taking it in stride.

I agree and disagree. The mood in here is actually much better than I ever would have expected. The average fan is crying the blues on social media. I think the media has been pretty tame as well, you get your odd one who cries and whines but it seems to be the tone they take with anything Canucks related.

I would have to say since I stopped reading any article written on the canucks by any donkey face media person. I feel optimistic about the Canucks season and that it will be a longer term project for longer term success.

We got the winner of the wing eating contest in Virtanen. I say our prospect pool just got more valuable with the addition of Tanner Glass.

I butchered it on purpose as he is falling out of favor.

fans are still trying to figure out how to blame Benning for the lottery. He should have made Linden take a good luck charm?

those fans are the same ones who were upset when Bieksa and Lack were dealt though.

I almost, that's almost wish I could listen to 1040 in my car here on the way to work. I need a good chuckle.

I always find it hilarious when fans get attached to players. especially weak players.

I expected the worst from the lottery. Honestly if you're not picking top 2 who cares who's chosen because its a toss up for who ranks from 3-10. Chances are we're taking Heskainen.

Jolevi and Heiskanen could make a great top pairing....assuming Heiskanen doesn't mind playing his offside in the pros.

Bieksa was frustrating to watch the last few years he was here, he stopped playing with any edge.

Bieksa was infuriating to watch. He was more of a personality so it covered up all of his defensive mishaps but he was god awful.
