Hope Goldy is watching and studying, not just stuffing his face with popcorn.

Boom! Leivo shows his great shot.

Fuck the stats. EP makes linemates better, because he plays all 200 ft. Not Goldy.

But overall attendance has been better this season.
Can you whip out fatties there now?

Most fans have to smoke or drink something in excess to sit through the games :lol:

It's Vancity, mate! You smell it everywhere, at every gate at Rogers while you're filing in... and that was BEFORE it was legalized.

So, to answer your question... Yes. You can pretty much whip out whatever you want :mex:

(No, not that kind of fattie, UDL)

Jeebus, the kids have played their hearts out. They've been competing and been in almost every game.

This season has brought back the excitement and most everyone agrees it's been pretty good hockey and they've really enjoyed watching it even if the results haven't been there.

Man, you are a serious Negative Nancy!

Dude I’m loving the games. It doesn’t mean it’s good entertainment. The d can’t make a breakout pass to save their life, the team isn’t physical and they are still really slow as a group compared to the rest of the league. I love the effort and they are getting better at a turtle like pace but it ain’t worth dropping 100$ a ticket + refreshments to watch live. Keep on keepin on my friend. I prefer to get lit up to watch Elmer’s production

To your point Hank the kids have tried hard. The veterans on the team have stunk like shit.

The point is that this season, it has been good entertainment. This is Vancouver, if you're going to talk about value, it wasn't good even when they were winning. Over a $100+ in the upper bowl isn't good entertainment value no matter what. $10 beers, $12 burgers, $20 parking on top of that.

Not sure that is true. Kids like Goldobin, Leipsic, and Pouliot did not do much when they had their chances. Most of the veterans have been injured in the first 20 odd games.

Eriksson has been weak, Schaller has been crappy, Gudbranson was ok, then horrible. Del Zotto has been meh. Tanev hasn’t looked like himself. Markstrom has been pretty meh, so has Edler coming back. Roussel has looked ok but isn’t the physical presence we were sold on. To me the kids have carried the team
