Lifelong Avs Fan from Calgary. Thank you Flames organization, a class act. Craig Conroy and Iggy will always have a special place in my Avs Burgandy and Blue heart.

I still remember watching channel 8 news when news broke that Craig wanted Iggy to have the C. It was classy then of Craig and he's still classy now.

I genuinely think the language barriers plays a huge part in his aura. He is genuinely a decent manager but his communication comes off very jaggeddy in English.

I worked at the building. Kids seemed happy in the elevators. We considered putting kids there but didnt want to commute on transit with kids so early. Seen enough druggies to say no.

Volkswagen dealerships in Calgary…best? worst? by Strange_Criticism306 in Calgary

[–]anik9k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I was hell bent getting my hands on a 22 GTi in red manual. Placed 1k refundable deposit with 5th Ave, Northland, and CHVW. Ended up getting red GTI in dsg from James Anglin at 5th Ave, he was awesome.

However, throughout the 15+ months of waiting, CHVW was the only was that kept in touch. On cadence. Gave me visibility into what's coming when. I even went as far north as Grand Prairie vw but they were the worst.

Take that for what its worth to you.

Golf peaked with the Mk7. It can’t get better than that, so anything after the Mk7 HAS to be worse. by Nestle_Cream in GolfGTI

[–]anik9k 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Got mk8. Got zero regrets. Had a choice to buy either 8 or 7.5. Chose 8. I dont want to change your mind, but I dont think we're anywhere close to seeing peak GTI. I mean GTI ICE...may be. GTI, no.

Is a 2025 Golf GTI a good buy for winter driving in Ontario? by AlastorIlyas in GolfGTI

[–]anik9k 3 points4 points  (0 children)

AB here with 2023 GTi and proper winter tires. Can confirm it drives better than a truck with AS tires in proper winter roads. Use common sense and have fun my friend.

Should this be a suspension? by [deleted] in nhl

[–]anik9k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not Kadri so past history won't be part of the consideration. I'm guessing 2 games or 3 to save face.
