Another one bites the dust

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

shocked he found a rope long enough to go around that fat ego
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Maybe he forced a rope of goose liver pate down his throat. When in France...

waste of pate

I think dangling from a rope is this years pound me too moment for celebrities.

”he said one day you’ll leave this world behind, so live a life you will remember” - Avicii
Seems Avicii will continue his career from beyond the grave.
Apart from the album that should have been released this summer and was supposedly finished, he left behind more than 200 unpublished songs...

A single, Heaven, which he has made with Chris Martin (from Coldplay) is apparently about to get released as a first teaser from the upcoming album.

Stan Mikita - RIP

"The stuff you can't buy, Stan had," he said. "You can't buy respect, being genuine and being respected by every one of your peers. And Stan had it."

"He was 5-foot-9 and 160 pounds soaking wet. But guys knew that if you messed with Stan, you'd get something back. He couldn't fight very well but he'd stick you, something like that. If you did your job against him, he didn't mind. But if you were a dirty player, then you got it back."

A little before my time. More in the Dudes vintage when he wore a fedora to the games with his dad before a trip to the No 5 for a hamburger as a young lad.

Amazing Stan was one of the most penalized players in the game before becoming a two time Lady Byng winner. Tough and dirty or gentlemanly his numbers remained excellent. They put him firmly in a top 50 all time player list and likely in a top 20 list.
