As I said, each to their own. I’ll watch it to see how it plays out, but from a long time Canuck fan, it’s kinda blah.

I find it much different from when I was younger and outside the top few picks nobody really cared. There's so much more information these days on the prospects, video, etc. It's like the NFL draft was a decade ago.

I have the day off, forecast of 50mm of rain...... I think I might just catch the draft this year.

Boooooo

Today was gorgeous on the left coast. A bit windy, but I've spent the past three hours on my deck, drinking wine and eating pizza. I'm full AF, and a little tipsy.

that's a big part of the reason why Torts lived in Point Roberts while coaching the Canucks.

The other coast has had beautiful weather for roughly 10-14 days. 22-26 C, mostly sunny. It became overcast late this afternoon and the rain started an hour or so ago. It's supposed to last all day tomorrow. A day of R&R is in order.

Speaking of taxes did you hear TB Rays have requested MLB to play half their season home games in Montreal?

You pay income tax wherever you work throughout the year but you claim wherever your principle residency is.

If you play in Carolina (41 games a year, you’re out of state the other 41) but live in Washington State (primary residence), example, you can claim your yearly taxes in Washington State and get a refund from overpaying. I know that’s an oversimplification but you get the idea. There’s also so many things you can write off in the USA vs Canada.

one thing the NHL can learn from the NBA/NFL drafts is that the commish should make the draft announcements.

It's annoying hearing this 25-30 teams: "thank you for your hospitality Vancouver, congrats to the Blues, shoutout to our wonderful fans watching at our draft party back home"


The commish can just say it once at the start of the draft and get it over with
