The fact that Clearshades thinks that Paul Kane is used only for "dog runs" makes me think that Clearshades might be thinking of the wrong park entirely. Baffling comments.

How do you persuade Nurse to waive his NMC to go to San Jose?

In some ways 2006 was a more painful loss, but in other ways this was worse. Very difficult to sleep after coming so close but ending up just short. Hell of a season and playoffs by the Oilers. I hope we get a great GM to replace Holland.

I walk by at least once a week, and they have a steady but small crew that's been working on the north-facing townhouse units on most days. If there's anything currently being done inside the hospital, I honestly can't tell.

They really should just move up the season to start a month earlier. Hockey in late June is fairly unnatural, and I don't understand why the NHL wants to compete with the NBA playoffs directly.

Superstitions are moronic, I know, but whenever I go to Rogers for a playoff game (live or a watch party), the Oilers lose, so I'm not going to tempt fate. I will be white-knuckling it in my living room, instead.

They had some of the best selection in the city. I liked them way better than HMV in that regard.

^Exactly. It's fine.

If Broberg (on his off-side, at that) can be a long-term solution to stabilize the troubled play of Nurse, that's not only huge for this series, but the longer term.

^I wouldn't mind if they got rid of their FEMA huts and did the rooftop thing instead.

There was another one near the old Days Paint space across from MacEwan a few years ago, before the building was demolished for the LRT.

It's nice to see that interest in this mall is not entirely flagging.

I'm very pleased to inform you that this is no longer an issue as of at least a few months ago. You can access the mall from 102 Ave in the evening hours now. They have a security guard posted by that entrance to keep an eye on things, too. This was a huge gripe for me, too, as someone who goes...

I remember waiting for a table at Earl's Jasper Ave during one of their playoff runs (maybe 2017?), and Zack Kassian walked in behind me and requested a table. He was made to wait like a normal plebe like me, and sat directly beside me in the lobby. It took a lot of restraint for me to not geek...

Yeah it works out to something like ~$100K per roster player for teams that make the finals, and about ~$160K/player for the teams that win the cup: https://thehockeywriters.com/nhl-player-playoff-compensation/ Not a massive chunk of compensation compared to how much the team is earning, but...

Is the city responsible for school yard maintenance, or does that fall on the school board(s)?

It should be the ICE District, not the Bank District.

It was a hideous shade of orange. Gaudy and jarring. Yet I couldn't look away!

I'm aware. But this one is in my neighborhood, and is a bigger location than Bonnie Doon's.

Man, there's not much left inside Westmount Mall anymore, but it will be sad to lose Revolver (if they are one of the affected tenants). Not too many shops like that around these days!
