I don't think i've watched a show live in a long while. The kid want something, wife is watching something. We only have 1 TV, I have to share once in a while. I also hate commercials and intermissions. Skipping those makes a 3 hour game 2 hours instead.

I am nowhere near as high as him as most seem to be. Will see how the season goes. Unlike last season where Patrick doesn't even play half a season and he still goes number 2.

Are you hoping for the Russian ?

I wonder if the development of certain D or forwards this year will determine who they pick if they are given the choice

I've ruined more then a few games from social media. Just notifications on the phone. I've learned though. Hockey I will still watch if I know the score. Soccer, I will not. I just skip through to the goals and watch them.

No, I don't like when JB trades away 2nd, 3rd, 5th round picks.

Goaltending will be the reason you draft Dahlin

- Redmile247

I'm not sure I have a preference right now.

Van needs a forward that drives offence to help out Bo. That player could be EP. Gaudette and Dahlen could be helpful secondary scoring possibly.

Van also needs a Brady Tkachuk, guy who scores from the front of the net and is a dink. Virtanen and Gadjovich don't really fit the net front.

Van could use an elite Defensemen.

A center unless generational or elite isn't a need IMO anymore. If Van did draft someone like Veleno because of BPA, I won't complain.

Nilsson is horrible so far . He is a slight improvement over John Garrett.

I thought Sven Dorsett Granlund and Burmistrov played very good , the rest of the forwards OUCH.

I think JV BB and Archie have played well enough and would make this team much more exciting and add Chattfield too.

Tanev has a muffin shot and the next thng he looks like Shea Weber shooting the puck. Nice goal.

I thought Gudbrandson had a very nice game aside from the third goal give away

Great picture, I know. My issue is the packages/programming with any cable company.

Most of the stuff I stream is in HD, works for me.

- VanHockeyGuy

I think we just have basic cable, although I get the center-ice package every year, it's mixed with Internet for 120 bucks....somewhere around there.

Sports, Discovery, National Geo and the news is all I watch usually.

You'd think that you're up to your usual chicanery with this sort of baiting... where is Don? Are you aware of his whereabouts? I'm getting rather tired of this poor Grammer, I'm sure we're all feeling the wear and tear ourselves.

Anyways yesterday we were talking about EG and today we're talking about Lazer, what's that all about?
Any edits? Lefty?

St. Louis got a steal in picking up Klim Kostin. I watched the Blues vs Caps game last night (while playing cards with the family). He could be their next Tarasenko. Great skater, excellent finisher. Probably a season in the AHL but he will be good.

I noticed Tyler Green giving the twins offensive zone starts after icing and PP1. Same lazy habit as the last guy.

I think Canucks have to start looking that they have 5 good forwards with Bo JV BB Sven and Granlund and start focusing on them .
I was wrong so far about Sven he looks to be moving up a notch.

I shockingly agree with what you've said, except Chatfield, I like what he's fine but he needs to perform in the A for at least a season before he's even a call up, to much asset management in front of him on the depth chart.

I think if you have a chance at a Dahlin you take it

Also you aren't alllwed to draft tkachuk ...you passed on one ...you don't get the possibly better one lol

That would be an awesome rivalry for those two to play against each other in the same division.

Stecher didn't.


Chattfield is a heads up guy. Even when he makes a mistake he is fast enough to get back. He will produce more points than mistakes . He will also learn by his mistakes .

I know he will start in Utica but when he gets his call up he won't go back

Decent package, basic cable is a good call. My Shaw tech buddies tell me lots of people are upgrading their Internet services for streaming and dropping cable.

The older demographic, not so much. But there is a shift happening.
