And me lol. I have 100% full confidence they’ll draft with their first round pick. In fact, they might have two picks in round one when they trade Miller and his sulky ass!

Most rankings, scout and public have 4 as elite players and another 10 that if they reach their ceiling are top line talent. I don’t know exactly what they define top level talent as.

Does another Horvat type make the team better or does a 3lc and #4 D?

For me, in the Canucks current situation, if you’re taking a center you need a center who can distribute the puck, that was not Horvat’s thing. It really depends on where they end up picking. Top four “D” should be priority over anything else.

They may get another asset if Anthony Beauvillier doesn't get things going.

He’s a good complimentary player when he plays with better players but he’s soft as fuck!! Get rid of him.

Having a few lagers on the patio, at home, and smoking a nice Liga Privada #9. It’s 27°C, such a beautiful day. Humidor has the cigars a bit moist though, sometimes it’s hard being me.

Having a couple of Lucky on my buddies back deck. It's a balmy 8°c. Presently appreciating a pipe of Tropicanna Gold after a shot of Wisers Deluxe. Sorry to hear you can't afford a decent Cuban.

He is one of the few that puts any puck pressure on, all over the ice. A much better version of Garland.

I don’t mind Barlow or Leonard in top 10. Tougher wingers than Van has.

If the price is right. Far too many holes still and excess in other areas.

He's not making points with his coach.

The coach is putting him on a line that is struggling. Need someone that can move up and down the lineup like that, to get the line going and Beauvillier is the guy.

Those Caps sure seem to be struggling, losing 41 to Habs, with 4 tough games remaining

Cuban’s are no longer considered the best cigars. More of a novelty now. Too expensive for an average smoke.

Most of the best boncheros or torcedores got the (frank) out of Cuba so they could make a mint in the Caribbean or South America… just like Cuban baseball players.

My dad (who considered himself an aficionado) would applaud you. Nicaraguan growers make a great cigar. Same for the Dominican Republic, some say the best in the world.

Seider was a great find, but Yzerman is a genius. Elias Pettersson the forward was drafted where he was projected, he wasn’t a reach at all.
- LeftCoaster

EP was projected 12 to 15 range.

Totally. I’m no expert (I don’t smoke) but listening to my dad talk about it endlessly for decades left an impression. Mexico benefited too from Cuban expertise. If you were a craftsman, would you choose to earn $10 a month in Cuba or $25 a hour in another country? Simple decision.

You'll still always get idiots like Left Coaster who will gladly overpay for an overrated/inferior name cigar. They don't know any better.

On a trip to Cuba I watched an older lady roll a cigar on the street, I purchased it from her and subsequently went up to the rooftop bar at Hotel Ambos Mundos in Havana. I’ll remember that day for the rest of my life, the drinks and the cigar were amazing. I think we had Mojitos?

Nicaraguan cigars are very nice cigars. The Liga Privada #9 is only $13.99 here for one. That’s inexpensive, or at the very least, a fair price. Cigars in Canada are like everything else, way overpriced. (frank) that place.

Love the mojitos! I have a ton of mint in the garden. My neighbour asks me if he can use it for his mojitos. I said absolutely as long as he makes me some. Every weekend during the summer he brings over a pitcher and it’s awesome. Love that poop.
