Darn. Did I shave my legs for this?

Jim Rutherford just admitted the Canucks tanked hard. “It is always difficult when you have a bad season but this one was on purpose. It is about time the Canucks have luck in getting a high pick”. I mean, we all knew, but aren’t you at least supposed to pretend?

Bummer. He was playing PCL AAA for Vancouver when we first moved to Vancouver, saw him play here a few games.

Yep, look how the Tampa found and brought in this season's top 2-4 scorers, post-Yzerman. - Jake Guentzel, C. Signed him two years ago as a 29 year free agent coming off a 30G 77 Pt season. 7 x $9mm. Has produced 80 and 88 pt seasons with Tampa, both around the 40 goal mark. - Brandon Hagel, LW. Acquired him four years ago as a 23 year old at the trade deadline. Gave up quite a bit, two 1st rounders (18 and 19 overall). Two cheap years then a contract extension of 8 x $6.5mm. 90 pts last year, 74 pts this year. - Darren Raddysh, D. Had been undrafted, Tampa signed him to a 1 year deal five years ago as a 25 year old. 70 points this season.

The Canucks need to hire Roberto Luongo as GM and bring in Kevin Bieksa, Henrik Sedin and Todd Bertuzzi as its drafting & pro scouting team.

I haven’t run Boston. I ran qualifying times in the ‘80s but never got around to it and seemed like I had endless time to do so. Then life happened and by the time I got back into marathons starting around 2009 my times had slipped and then I shifted to trails/ultras. Have to admit though, if I could qualify I would love to run Boston. My sister ran it, is glad to do it, but like tigers337’s comment the point to point nature of the course made buses as much of an effort as the run. No interest in other majors though. Chicago was worst experience of my 30 or so marathons/ultras because of having to pick through thousands of people who had placed themselves in faster corrals than they should have. In the mid-80s there used to an Emily & Pooh 10k that ended on the Tiger Stadium warning track. Did that a couple of times then sat in the bleachers in the afternoon.

8-1 brings the Wings’ final goal differential to minus 17.

7-1. They should have just defaulted.

Keith Gave isn’t holding back these days.

KC KO’d !

Why is it taking so long. Obvious overturn.

Possible pickoff to end the game. Let’s see the challenge result. Probably safe.

Losing 4-0 tonight in Florida. They stink.
