No surprise today, tomorrow, next year or 100 years from now. Although a 100 years from now it might be really nice in winter.

What evs. To each their own. Room for improvement? Sure. More than other Cities? Maybe, maybe not, depending on what specifically one is looking at.

Noeller Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 I'll tell you this: Winnipeg is absolutely no worse than either Calgary or Edmonton. I'll personally take Winnipeg over either of those two any day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember interviewing Mike Vernon for a university HR project I was working on and I asked him what city was the worst to be in on the road, and he said "Winnipeg. Nothing else comes close". Good to see nothing has changed. Floyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCon Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 I am so thankful this game on the Isle is finally here, so I can stop seeing all the "national" Leafs media fawning over Tavares and scolding the Isle fans for their disappointment in him. Seriously, it's disgusting. FrostyWinnipeg, HardCoreBlue, blue_gold_84 and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCon Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 I have finally rid my Twitter timeline of all the "national" hockey journalists, with the exception of Elliot Friedman. My fault for keeping them so long but my feed will be so much better. Started with Mirtle a month or so ago. But, he's really just a Leaf booster and doesn't pretend to be a national reporter. rebusrankin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue_gold_84 Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 What a stupid question to ask in a poll. "So, where do you least like to travel to get paid an insanely ridiculous amount of money to play a sport?" Oh, and Boucher out in Ottawa with Crawford taking over in the interim.

Avery spent a career hurting other players. Of course, the Toronto Sports Network needs to go out of it's way to soothe the poor feelings of Tavares. And the Toronto media were scolding fans. blue_gold_84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_gold_84 Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 Sean Avery needs to shut his mouth and go back to being the irrelevant sack of rat droppings he is. And the assbleed from The Big Smoke is pretty rich. For a fanbase that loves to adulate its team's otherwise long-forgotten past, their short-term memory sure sucks. Weren't these the same fans a few years bullying Reimer's wife on Twitter? Weren't these the same fans throwing jerseys on the ice at ACC? Were these not the same fans booing their own player last year? Hypocrisy sure is a stinky cologne. And L'Eau de Biased Blue Foliage is really selling well at the moment. I can't help but wonder how they'll react should this same scenario take place in Toronto in about five years. Goalie, JCon and Noeller 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help but wonder how they'll react should this same scenario take place in Toronto in about five years. I saw a Leafs fan saying how great they treated their former players because they cheered a 37-year old Mats Sundin when he returned. I pointed to how the fans treated Vince Carter because that was the first thing that came to my mind. Not good enough for this individual. "Leaf fans are not Raps fans" So, I replied that Leafs fans watch from home because ACC (I know it's not called this anymore) is filled with Suits and those Suits don't know any of the players, anyhow. And, yes, the Leafs fans booed Jake Gardiner this season!! Goalie and blue_gold_84 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
