BC Place, went to one soccer game last season, but still haven't had a good chance to walk around the whole place since the renovation.

Free tickets from wifey's work.

I don't know much about rugby, not sure how long we will last down there, but if there is a lot of people, a lot of energy, it should be fun.

I'm the same as you, if it's live and not soccer I'll watch it.

My pipe band opened for Lions during preseason last season and it was such a blast, first time I was there since I was a kid. Such a beautiful field. Got to walk around the field, see the Lions lockerroom, it's crazy how luxurious stadiums are now. I grew up in plastic seats, 2 dollar beer, watching Calgary cannons get thrashed, how times have changed..

Only one more week left before playoffs. You're 3 points out, right behind Nucker. I could bench my team tonight and let you get the extra points...

I don't think it's difficult to compare them at all, one's 20 the other is 21, both are centres. I believe Monahan is currently a better offensive player than Horvat, although like you said, he's playing with Johnny Hockey.

Both gonna be great young players though!
- LeftCoaster

Exactly. The comparisons r too difficult with differing styles n linemates in a team game n both will have good careers.

BC place hasn't changed, it's still a poopty sports venue made of concrete. They totally screwed up by not tearing it down and building something new.

I'm not a rugby fan, never understood the game or why so many people love it. To each their own...
- Scooby_Doo

Just looking at it as an event, lots of people, good energy. hang out with my son, walk around downtown and at BC place.

if it sucks, we will walk around Robson and maybe go to a donair place on Granville.

pshaw dont let the yuppies fool you, it's a good time

What i see JB building is a fast team that plays 200' hockey.
The D has too play smart puck moving n handle the rough goin.
Pretty much the Bruins n Wings mold combined.
Players work hard n skate for 60 r his kinda players.

I'm just happy doing something on the weekend, that is different from the norm. I am a bit of a home body, in my comfort zone, spend too much time hanging around the house and neighborhood... and happy to leave the wife to her things, the pampered princess doesn't really enjoy this stuff.

Yaletown n Granville island is a nice option.

One of the biggest contradictions we heard was the Boston model when JB was hired and then the signings of Weber and Bartkowski...

maybe JB was constrained by lack of cap space, but it just seemed odd.

Have fun. Becareful, will be lots of meatheads there...almost as bad as a ufc event.

Well guys here's to hoping Steaming Lombardi makes it to the Rugby tournament today. If he smokes all 15 jazz sticks on the way over he just might end up on an Alaskan Love Cruise with some Thai Ladyboy.

Go Allblack Go

I'll keep an eye out for Steaming. What does he look like?

Same here n i prolly should do the same.

not my fault you're a salty wiener that can't handle when someone disagrees with your terrible arguements , same goes with Marwood/canuckdon, you all can call me whatever you like/ continue to troll me with crap I said like a month ago (seems like you all care an awful lot). But I have yet to hear anything intelligent or related to hockey.continue your pathetic attempts to troll, you are the definition of a misinformed / idiotic canuck fan

My definition of a typical canuckdon/marwood post=

"no you;re stupid..... this guy is going to be a superstar because I heard the analysts say so." gives no actual evidence, or sources, nor a real arguement.

Go on, continue spouting crap that you hear on twitter/ make up, I'll go on to talk to people that actual know something about hockey K? lets just get over it, and go our seperate ways... I aint feeding the trolls anymore

My Grandparents just bought me a bike (like one of those fixed gear things, that dont hold coffee) because I'm the same way, least you have an excuse having a wife and kids :p . How old's the son? My best reccomendation is to let him drive, get a beer or 10 at the game. Crown donair on Robson is solid (my donair game is strong).

He was plugging holes best he could while stockpiling players to fill the gaps left after the cup run teams. To many holes to fill n we now see it clearly. Its why this season was a bust n why next year will show more of JB's plan.

Look for an old guy that looks really wasted with a ladyboy on his arm

why is it that everything that requires patience takes so long to get done

he had his hands full with few options, I believe we are headed in the right direction.

A lady boy wearing a Stan Smyl Canucks jersey...that's something you don't see everyday.

Monohan> Horvat imo
I like both but Mohahan has a lot of finish. Horvat puts a lot of shot's center chest, will try a great move at really a weird time. I gotta say Monahan is definitely the better player right now, but that could definitely change. He's already a bonafide 1c, and one would say his two way game helps a guy like Gaudreau be offense, despite calgary troubles this year. Horvat needs some more time.
- Crazybagoham

Yes, right now monohan is better then Bo.
Bonofide number 1 center. ... I hope you scouted him in person because right now he is not among the top 30 centers in the league. Nothing wrong with that, he's still developing and should be a number 1 in a couple more years. That's like calling RNH a Bonofide number 1. It's wrong, Bonofide top 6 yes. Number one with a bullet. ... no way son. Not yet.

He will be easy to spot.

If he/she wore their Henrik Sedin jersey you would have

Something old
Something new
Something blue
Something screwed

Alaskan honeymoon cruise

He will be easy to spot.
