Funny, you can’t get that anymore. Open bottle of Maker’s Mark on the counter though.

haha i had a shot of that and a "prairie fire" on my 19th, haven't touched or seen the stuff since, so I am not surprised.

Googling just now I found out 151 has been discontinued. Funny enough, the first time I got drunk in high school was on that stuff.

Not sure about acquiring a pending UFA without a contract in place though. Unless the plan is to flip the player for more at the TDL

Or resign them?

As long as it’s not a Skinner situation where the agent/player are insistent on waiting until after the season

Any potential 2nd or later round draft prospect that people like?

Curious to see.

Albin Grewe
Jamieson Rees
Samuel Poulin
Jordan Spence (later RHD pick I prefer to Soderstrom at 10)
Xavier Simoneau (later little person pick I prefer to Caufield)

I had 2 buddies in university who lit shots of it on fire for one guys 19th. One got it down fine, the other spilled in on the floor of our dorm and lit his carpet on fire.

NHL central scouting has Simoneau as pretty much a player who won't be drafted.

... and?

If you’d prefer a bust at 10 to a lottery ticket late, be my guest.

I had a muff diver on my bday last weekend. I was not amused. On the plus side it was placed between a girls legs

WTF does 10 have to do with anything about a player who is ranked 200 plus in central scouting rankings?

No one was talking about taking Caufield at 10.

Good one though. A few more Palmu, Manyakan will please this fan base.

The only reason I mentioned him is because I like his overall skillset better than Caufield’s considering where they’re both projected to go. If you think it’s smart to ignore players of a certain height because other players of a certain height failed to reach their ceilings, then I don’t know what to tell ya... The point is to fill the system with as much talent as possible & adding a player like Simoneau late in the draft could pay huge dividends - if he goes undrafted, he’ll be a 2nd or 3rd rounder next year.

I've seen a couple of Caulfield at 10 suggestions in here actually.

if Zegras/Boldy are there at 10, I think the Canucks take one of them. If they are still available, and the Canucks take Caufield, I would assume Brackett and company did enough research and did their due diligence in figuring out they got the right one. In other words, if we take Caufield at 10, I wouldn't be upset about it.

Yeah, I'm not interested in Caufield at 10 either but if he becomes the next Debrincat. A lot may look stupid again.

Considering CLB size just beat up the best team in the league, could see him drop a few spots because TB has some smaller players.

devils advocate.

CBJ leading scorer this year was Cam Atkinson. 41 goals in 80 games. 5 foot 8.

not disagreeing that size and speed and grit has been tremendously important in these playoffs, as we are seeing.

I don't think it was their "size" that won the series.
