Dogs are the best. How can you say no to this face?

The problem I have with cats is not with cats themselves but with their owners. I have met more weirdos that own cats than dogs. Dog owners would be the ones that try cocaine, while cat owners would be the ones that go on eBay, buy, and hoard every potato chip that resembles Hollywood stars' faces. I take it that the characteristic of cats attract a certain type of person that has strange characteristics themselves.
The Hockey Guy just said that he hates Colorado Avalanche. Wow. Likes Vancouver and Dallas but does not Colorado.
You need to insert context here bruv. He dislikes the Avs due to him being a Quebec Nordiques fan and how Quebec had to endure an endless amount of losing seasons and they win the Cup the first season with Colorado. I understand it, he probably also hates the Avs due to the constant pounding that we did on the Canucks for twenty years lol.

God I wish it was that long. I lived in Vancouver during the bulk of the Sedin era and still drive down when I can. Of the games I’ve been to in Van, they’re up to 1-13 now and that one win was the second game in 2014. Have won the ones I’ve watched elsewhere though. So you can just count that Mar 13 game as an auto loss BTW

Yeah, I was over-exaggerating, but not entirely wrong. No doubt we got pummeled big time during Canucks golden era, but that was at most...like 3-4 seasons at tops. We bent the Canucks backwards from 1996 to 2008 and then from 2019 currently on.

No they haven’t. They’re 3-3 in Van since 18-19 (and I’ve managed to only make it to the three losses) and 2-3 in Denver
 
Thats a gorgeous doggo metal. Makes me miss mine. She died in May :(
i'm sorry, i know how you feel :(
I've been there, too. The silver lining with pets is that the memories are always, always happy memories.


Hey Frenchy, I wonder if it's possible to add reactions to the board? Unfortunate as it is, something like the hug reaction that's on Facebook would be good to have sometimes.

We've have been talking about it in the past , i will have to check the reason why we didnt do it .
You're not the first person who made this request .
 
When is the verdict on the 5 players going to drop? Why is this being kept so private?
It'll be prior to training camp, but could be any day prior. I'm not sure of the legal ramifications in Canada with statutes of limitations and libel... but I'm sure that plays a role in these efforts to keep it quiet. It is also a pretty touchy situation that you don't want to get wrong or have improper names leaked as it will ruin reputations immediately.

Not sure. But at least we can clickbait a little bit more on the subject and keep in in the public sphere by having people guess which 5 players it is….

We've got 4 (likely) and another one of them is lying.

FYI statute of limitation on sex crimes doesn't exist in Canada.

It is unfair to say cooperating with authorities implies guilt here. You can dig into the rumor mill on this deeply, but ~10 players have direct knowledge of the incident in question... cooperating could simply be the guys who noped the F out of there and are simply giving testimony.

FYI statute of limitation on sex crimes doesn't exist in Canada.
Then there it is... can't have the names leaking out for legal reasons. Especially with the flight risk many of these players present.
