Louise, a friend of mine on Facebook, knowing how much I supported the Canucks (not at all is the current support count), sent me the attached link about Roberto Luongo.

Thanks Louise, and I hope most of my friends enjoy this.

When one has a creative block, it is time to bring out the cute and hilarious (insert animal here) animal video.  This one was recorded at the Calgary Zoo, so it even has local flavour.

Another cute video, this one about a Jack Russell who appears to very well trained.  Forgive me if you have seen before, (11,000,000 views), if you haven’t, then you will enjoy it.  Smart dog.

The Talking Dog

Whoever made this video is a genius.  One of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time.

 

Donald Trump Goes Golfing

No matter what you may think of the Donald, he is fun to watch.  Build a golf course in Scotland and 1 guy decides not to sell him the land.  The Donald didn’t take very kindly to this.  Check the link and see what he does about it.  The man has giant kohunas.

Bruins vs Canucks – Game 2 Preview

After game 1, I am very pleased to announce that the Boston Bruins will easily win this series in 6 games. I base this on several factors.

First, a 1-0 loss, against a hot goalie, on the road, with 20 seconds left in front of a rabid crowd, is pretty much a win. With an early couple of goals in game 2, the bruins should overwhelm an obviously inferior opponent. The refs were (albeit for both teams) awful in game 1, and allowed far too much crap to go on. So bad in fact, that if there is a blow out, I fully expect Hamhuis to be destroyed for his blatant attempt to injure Lucic with a low hip check to the knees and also Burrows for his stupid move against Bergeron.

Secondly, the Bruins completely outplayed the Canucks in game 1 who should have been blown out other than some poor shooting by the Bruins and some great goaltending by Luongo. I do not expect either to continue.

A Bruins Fan In Vancouver

A friend sent me this yesterday.  Hilarious.

The series should go exactly as this video.

 

Winnipeg Jets History – Great Story

I found this article online at the Calgary Herald this morning about the time Bobby Hull was benched and not dressed on “BOBBY HULL NIGHT”.  It also touches on a few other moments in their history.

Canada’s Team – Bruins or Canucks

I see a lot of impassioned discussion on the issue of, as Canadians, who we should be backing in the Stanley Cup Finals, the Boston Bruins or the Vancouver Canucks. Let’s examine this issue in depth and without emotion, using only the facts and rate on a logic based analysis.

First the obvious.  Vancouver is in Canada, Boston is not.  This would normally be a powerful argument, EXCEPT for 2 minor, yet nagging issues.  Both Phoenix and Colorado were Canadian teams at one point, yet I didn’t hear anyone say that Colorado was Canada’s team.  What if Vancouver were to be moved to Houston this week, would they still be Canada’s team?  The second point is that Boston was once British and could easily have been part of Canada.  I will give a very slight advantage to Vancouver.
