Was thinking about it today and looked up some reddit threads.

Lots of people complaining and saying they'll insta mute it in the main sub.

Low sodium sub seems way more welcoming of it. Same similar concern though if people have open mics and don't manage it well.

I would think that ideally they would need to make some proximity chat mute. Like you can mute the people in your vicinity who have active mics?

How does Arc Raiders handle it and make it work?

Now before anyone says costco; it's a plant based gravy and the curds aren't squeeky, and those frozen cavendish fries are meh.

I'm talking double fried home fries, squeeky curds, and a real beef brown gravy.

Ownership has a massive say in this hire (confirmed by Dhaliwal). He's leaning to get Evan Gold as GM, he has the law degree background, that makes sense to him (I swear he roams around this sub lmao).

Ryan Johnson is out there on skates. He's part of our last bits of a person instilling a stronger culture that the Canucks have. He made the culture in Abbotsford, and it's so strong that you can see it coming up into the big club with players like Sasson, Karlsson, Tolopilo, the list goes on. Ryan Johnson, a Vancouver Canuck of 2008-2010 - some of our golden years.

When comparing to Evan Gold and his role, honestly the (public known) experience between him and Johnson is more or less the same with having a strong AHL team - maybe some analytics changing that here and there. Analytics can be fixed or modernized by an analytics firm, proper contractors, etc. It doesn't have to be the GM that instills it, they just have to be smart enough to make use of it according to how an analytics department presents the data and it's use cases.

It'd be more ideal to have a guy like Evan Gold in the front office WITH Ryan Johnson - someone to handle the contract stuff so Johnson can just focus on hockey. Not sure how that all works out together. Maybe Kevyn Adams takes a POHO role (he made a great collaborative environment in Buffalo during their main rebuilding years)

Ryan Johnson has earned it and it would be a big blow to this franchise if we ever lose him.

Ok arm chair experts, who's the BPA at 3OA?

I keep flip flopping back and forth between all three of these guys.

I think the thing that really sets in the decision for me, is Verhoeff had some really good chemistry with Cootes on Team Canada, he's 17 and the fact that he's making plays and getting points like he was at the beginning of the NCAA is a bit more assuring to me than Reid in the OHL.

Reid though seems so much quicker out there, and fast to make slick plays - I wonder how he is boxing out and playing in front of his net? Does he throw down for his team mates when push comes to shove? He'll be playing for team USA.

Verhoeff is a seeing eye point guy, makes wicked plays and his accuracy in his shot is pretty unreal and kind of deceiving for where he plans to shoot it. Plays mostly at the point, wonder if he has the motor though to play at the NHL level.

Malholtra has had an absolutely unreal playoffs. If he had this level of production all year, he would probably be a no brainer for 3OA. It's hard to gauge players off seasonal/playoff point production in leagues like the OHL though.

Thoughts?

Mentioned on Halford and Brough this morning, the pact that no matter how tough it got with the on ice product, they wouldn't ever drag down the fans or let any of that effect the culture in a negative way. Saying that Cheech was like your best friend reaching out through the T.V.

This taught me a lot. Just so much passion, and just so full of life, and enjoying it in the moment, and making the most of it - never taking it too seriously.

It's really so beautiful how this can come so naturally to some people like Cheech, and Shorty.

Such bright spots of the Canucks, evoking feelings of watching the Canucks and core memories that I hold dearly, like so many of us do.

I can't put it into words.

Cheers Cheech. Amazing legacy, absolutely amazing.
