Let's talk BBQ's.

I need a new gas grill. So far I've decided to go with the Prestige500RSIB from Napoleon. If anyone has a reason I shouldn't go with this one or has a better option let me know. Lifetime warranty and costs around $1500 plus tax.

Therefore, telling me I should spend $3k on a BBQ because it's better isn't really helpful.

I have a Napoleon and it’s awesome. Buy Canadian. Stay away from Weber even though you may save a few dollars.

Draft and Destroy would be upset with you revealing the magic formula. But it hasn't helped the Flyers. So building a winner must be a lot more complex. Just avoiding Canuck luck is a huge step.

The Flyers core players are old and declining, plus there’s too big of a gap in between the younger players and the core, not to mention their defence is sub par and the goaltending is sketchy but youthful.

It rusted because I bet you used a cover. Never use a bbq cover. Most Napoleons use cast iron grills. Weber used stainless steel. Never cook on stainless steel.

Give Benning Tampa’s core that Yzerman inherited, the weather and tax advantage and he’d build a winner too

I love how he inherited it when he actually drafted 75% of it

Did well supplementing his 1st and 2nd overall picks he started with. Lots of mistakes as well drafting inside the top 10.

Brisebois than made some real nice trades.

Canucks are trading down.

I can't think of anything Van needs less of, than another soft small offensive forward who doesn't get on the scoresheet.

Can’t see them passing on Kent Johnson, the organization is weak at the center position when it comes to depth.
