  1. the park across the street from me also has "no tobogganing" signs with threats of fines as well. However it seems like everyone ignores them, which is a good thing. I hope that the sole purpose of the signs is to remove liability, so that when someone does get hurt their parents dont try to sue the city for millions. I would pray that the by law would never actually be enforced. Theres two ways that i see this, I know that in St. Catherines people build their own private ice pads under the big hydro lines, clearly on Hydro's property but not one seems to have an issue with it. Personally Anything that gets kids out of the house is worthwhile.
  2. Pete, The pictures are even better on a big screen! Your phone didnt do these gators justice. I am heading up to Pointe Au Baril tomorrow to try chase some as well. Weve got the sardines just as you suggested!
  3. Anywhere in the world I have been, money talks....remember there is no salary cap for coaches, and you are talking about one of the wealthiest sports franchises in the entire world. They will throw an unlimited amount of money at him and make him an offer he cant refuse. Do you honestly think Babcock loves Detroit so much that he would turn down an additional 1-2-3 maybe even 4 mill per year...ya right lol.
  4. not gonna lie, just personal preference here...yes co pilot is amazing, the GPS feature is awesome for hitting your local honey holes effortlessly but it also has its downfall of the fact that its clumsy when you are trying to fish. really think about how you fish before dropping a pile of cash. To be honest if you are a bass fisherman covering ground constantly shorelines etc...foot pedal is better, it drives me crazy in the wind when i constantly have to stop reeling to re-adjust the boat so that i dont end up on the rocks etc. However the anchor feature etc is the best
  5. The leafs literally make 1 million dollars profit for every playoff game they play. Do not think that this organization wouldnt love to play 4 seven game series in a year. In fact I am sure a Stanley cup final game's revenue in Toronto would possibly be some of the highest grossing sports events of all time. The money involved would be nearly unfathomable.
  6. these guys are NHL caliber hockey players. Facing the most shots against in history is a systematic problem. You can reduce the number of shots a goalie faces purely by changing your style of play. The leafs still have the best offence in the entire league along with some of the best goaltending. Even if the defence isnt mediocre they instantly have a recipe to be a middle of the pack 7th 8th place playoff team or better. The team can beat tough teams, the inconstancy wreaks of something fundamentally flawed. Call Phaneuf a bum etc etc, plenty of other teams would love to have him. Maybe he shouldnt be the captain, but hes not a garbage hockey player.
  7. time to salvage the season. Will be looking forward to what the leafs can accomplish when they dont face 50 shots per game. heard mclean is looking for a job.
  8. do i sense some gasoline butt hurt?
  9. Here we go boys Saturday the Brappppppppp returns!
  10. or the colorado...ive been waiting for this truck for years... although now i have the TDI it might be a bit... Forget 100 a tank, how about 1100km on 50 bucks...just did a trip to montreal last week, now thats what I am talking about.
  11. at the very least wear a friggin float suit.
  12. Pacioretti cant be admiring passes like that. At the same time the hit wasnt even a hit, it was a cross check to the side/back. I think he deserves 2 games.
  13. deadsticking at night with a shiner...you dont say... lol 100% exactly how i caught it.
  14. ughhh This fall i heavily planned to get a tattoo of a pike done on my leg, but the funding didnt work itself out and now im stuck only dreaming of what could have been. I even had the concept ready to go, and had a consultation with an artist. Oh well maybe some day. Nice tats though, like your choice of colour realism, much the same as my idea.
  15. The girlfriend just texted me "if you were to get those gloves what size would you be?" sounds like i might be getting some sealskinz Lets hope they live up to my expectations.
  16. Holy crap, i need to try this! Have you tried them with the standard mashed potatos additions, garlic, sour cream etc?
  17. that was 5 years ago, the pattern has changed in Detroit...as the city has travelled further into decline the shift has been made, If you watched the games they played in Detroit this year it was close to 50-50 and the go leafs go chants range through the crowd very loud.
  18. Buffalo, Detroit, Ottawa, Florida, Tampa, phoenix all home crowd arenas for the leafs...
  19. hard to keep hands in a muff when you are casting big baits for pike!
  20. your username cant be real...
  21. 11 shots over 3 periods, very very meh. Especially when you are up in the 3rd...you can expect to get shot on more as you play more defensively and less on the attack. pretty sure the waiver wire lasts 48 hours? (correct me if im wrong) If someone is looking for some PK help they will scoop him up. Ill be surprised if he makes the marlies.
  22. The webcam shows the channel being frozen going into the Pointe au Baril, but I actually wonder what kinda ice it is.
  23. I would like to point out the fact that yes, they gave up 40 shots to the best team in the NHL. And Yes they have done that a few times, but its still a major improvement over last year. They played detroit saturday and held them to 27? shots...Yes its still a concern absolutely, but they have definitely improved, and once again ill reiterate, good goal tending and the best offense in the league is nothing to complain about. Do i think they will win the cup? no...but neither will any other canadian team. Its like saying that Montreal doesn't rely on Price...Every team has its flaws, some far less than others, but by no means is Montreal perfect either...They stand no chance in the playoffs either until they gain some strength and size, because every time they hit the 2nd and 3rd round they are so beat up they gas out. What do you expect from guys that wear turtle necks
  24. already asked for the following Ice fishing Rod 1000 Series Reel Ice fishing Tip ups lets see if my family delivered lol. update soon! ...aka next week
  25. oh man, now im excited about this. I just watched the youtube video and this guy says that these gloves do everything that I want from a glove. Looking at the way his hands move in them seems to make me believe they are the real deal. As a footnote, I was at Al Flahertys on Monday and they had some sealskinz waterproof cotton gloves. Unfortunately they only had size XL, but they seem very very promising as well. I need to try some that are actually my size and see how the feel is. From what i could tell though, for the most part they felt just like your standard cotton gloves but slightly thicker.
