Nope ,still working outside even when it hits minus 35....Just makes me miss home a bit more & dream of the Northern beaches..

 

[globaleagle]

-35?!?!?!

that's nuts, you are an alien like the sedins.

 

[robbiea]

Must be nice in tropical Vancouver !!

snowing all friggen day here at vail, colorado....

and sick of driving around on summer tyres.

some f-wit, on an icy road decided to pull out from behind a truck into my lane.

trouble was we were side by side. He actually drove me into a snow drift...then as my car slowed down, he took my spot!


he's dead now.

I was in prince george for awhile.....summer...but still coolish.

-50 is just obscene!

tropical vancouver...teehee

atm we are at 8,000 feet. It's still hard to breeze and my nose fills with dried boogers (tmi)

 

[globaleagle]

squeezed home 5-4 v oilers (4th win over them this season and oilers yet to beat a western conference team)

not that exciting a game (c'mon miller!)

there's a good pic somewhere of Henrik with all 5 oilers around him....yet he still got to the corner and made a pass! (lol)

 

[robbiea]

Getting 4 put on us from the Coilers is a worry .
Not exciting at all ,lets hope this one tonight gets better soon ..

 

[globaleagle]

3-2 nucks after the second with horvat getting his first nhl goal (and winning 5 of 6 faceoffs which the nucks need!!)

 

[Dan]

One of my friends was there watching it live from a suite....Lucky bugger

Nice! Did he/she say what the view was like from way up high in the stands?


Pity about the result.

 

[Dan]

It was a lower suite I'll post a photo later

 

[robbiea]

Glass seats ,behind bench ..Here is your Fave goalie boys !!

---

The coaches can get in the way though !!

 

[globaleagle]

Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Great seats.

Hey...the sedins are sitting next to one another!!!?!?!?! lol

Daniel to play in his 1000th game on sunday!!!! wow.

Against the blackhawks (booooooooooooooooooo)

 

[robbiea]

I used to love the Canucks v Hawks rivalry ..The intenseness of these games have worn off the last couple of years.Hopefully a good one again Sunday !

 

[Dan]

Lu getting switched out, must have been a playoff game....and we were already down by 4

 

[globaleagle]

4-1 against the hawks. A very good win! glad to hear the boo's for keith, esp for Daniels 1000th game.

Makes him and Henrik 1 of about 5 pairs of brothers who have played 1000+ games each.

Sad part about that is....how many more years are left for the sed-aliens??

The green men finally turned up last night!


edit: rip Pat Quinn. A Vancouver great.

 

[robbiea]

They have at least 3 good seasons in them. (my guess )
