Unrelated to the topic but I wouldn't be surprised if the "Vancouver Penguins", with Alvin at the helm, signed a 40 year old Evgeni Malkin to a one year deal.  😛

There are rumours that we are in on Phil Kessel if we can find cap-space to fit him in. Would love to have Phil the Thrill on the Canucks even if we just have him for the memes.

Shouldn't that be the "Vancouver Penguin-Eating Orcas"?

By any chance, did you drink the water while you were there?  Hopefully you stayed away from Flint area in the first rung of the surrounding towns/cities. 

Drove through Flint in 2010 on my way to Flamborough, Ontario. Whole neighborhoods were abandoned and some of the houses had been burnt down or collapsed. Was like the zombie apocalypse had struck.

That's why Bruce Springsteen wrote and sung the song, "Born in the USA".  It's actually about his hometown of Flint Michigan being basically left for dead.  That song was written and performed 40 years ago.

 

Nevermind... lol

He'll be lucky to play enough to make the playoffs on that resurfaced hip. I can imagine he will be very time managed.

 

But it doesn't cost Lord Stevie any assets so I guess why not try.

Those who've been watching him skate have said its the best he's looked in years....He also signed for one year so he's betting on himself, and playing with DeBrincat again is part of that. He knows he can play, is going to rack up points and is going to cash in as a UFA in the offseason.

Resurfaced hip says 'hi'. Check the history on those.

I'm not going to enter the battle you two seem to be having but... how does a look at past history bring up thoughts of Nostradamus?

He's using the past of other people to predict the future....I am wondering if he can share this week's lotto max numbers with me, I'd like to win!

So Bruce isn't really from New Jersey?  🙂

Crap.  That's right, he is.  He grew up in NJ also.  I don't turn 50 for a few more months but my memory is apparently crapping out on me... lol

 

Let me check and see what his connection to Flint MI is real quick.

Do you know of another way?   I'm going to discount tea leaves, palm readings, and Tarot cards and say all we've got to work with are statistics and probabilities.

I didn't know someone ELSE'S body is a prediction of what your body can do...damn, I guess I can just look at a picture of a dude with a six pack and it will happen to me?

 

My goodness....media has literally stated Kane looks better than he has looked in years and because Ryan kesler had issues Kane will....

Welp.  It has d*ck all to do with Flint.  I just pulled up the lyrics and it's a song about a Vietnam soldier returning home from the war.

 

What friggin' song was I thinking about!!!  If I mixed up Eminem and The Boss, I may as well just end it all before I keep embarrassing myself... lol

Typed too fast and separated the name Vietnam

Maybe instead of Bruce Springsteen, song, and Born in the USA…you meant Michael Moore, movie, and Roger & Me?
