What happened to the white male doing sports highlights?

Now it's women or black, Chinese, Indian or mix race doing them.

Let's stack up what he has said.

Not asking players to waive NTC
Not buying rentals
Not trading picks
Not selling either want to play meaningful games

"Riding out these players to develop. Play meaningful games and hope to make playoffs."

So what's left to do as far as make a trade?

Things Bennings says to the public mean nothing to me. There is always an ulterior motive when giving such info to the public on a voluntary basis.

He will grab them by the P***ys and bring in only the best bigly men who will only speak of Right Wingers and ignore Left Wingers.

At all-star break I suggested we would go 11-16-5, giving us 79 points for the season
With the way the schedule looks I can see us in the bottom 5 of standings. Joining us in this group will be Detroit, New Jersey, & of course Colorado & Arizona.

This guarantees us a pick in the top 8, after Bettman's silly game of ping-pong... you all know where we end up.

Nah.

I'm not bipolar than that.
More even keel Sedin-like.
Never too high, never too low.

If we win, i'm stoked.
If we lose and get a good draft pick, i'm stoked.

i would never want to see the team intentionally put together a less competitive team in an effort to secure a lotto pick.

Bottom is quite possible but i don't believe in we have bad luck all the time besides this draft its not as important unless luck gets us top 2.

does it make the sports highlights better to watch?

this is what happens with unfettered immigration over a long period of time. It will only become more noticeable.

Sounds very similar to last season.

I think Van can do better by trading away some players and get somewhere around the 5th pick. I'm okay with that, just need another pick around the 20 mark too. Columbus also has to give us their 2nd round pick.

6 Centres in top 10. Vilardi could be a realistic pick for us.
What I like about this consolidated ranking is the fact that Bob McKenzie's are included.

Edit: may have to scroll down to 2017 nhl draft consensus rankings

Way to go make me find the article. It's weird looking at the rankings that some don't even have players ranked and others have them ranked in the top 20. So odd.

It is strange draft.year for sure. Hoping we get some of.those guys with our acquired 2nds. Maybe bundle a couple picks to get into 1zt for a Cody Glass/Isaac Ratcliffe type of players.
I am assuming we get CBJ pick plus maybe something through a trade before draft.

If lijlegrin falls out of the top 4 i'd take him. If Van is drafting in the 5-6 spot. A lot more skilled forwards next season it looks like. If Van was trading someone like Hansen or Tanev, something with term i'd look at getting some picks for the 2018 draft. Looks like the Auston Matthews, Patrik Laine type players are in that draft.

Watching 3 sets of highlights this morning, Van had some solid chances to score. Sort of reminds me of the 9 game losing streak. This team really needs a finisher. or 2 or 3.

No, but it makes it more 'inclusive' and 'accommodating' without having to 'trigger' people's 'sensitivities' concerning 'white-male privilege'.

'Safe spaces' for all and everywhere!!!
An exciting time to be alive.

If anybody cares. Sportsnet is playing the Vancouver Giants vs Calgary Hitmen. Get a chance to watch Jakob Stukel play. 730 pm Pacific start time.
