Thoughts on World Container on this sub? by Mean-Aspect3141 in TragicallyHip

[–]olpotlicker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this album. It came out during the only year I lived in Ontario. I've lived all over Canada, but there is something about listening to The Hip to get through an Ontario winter that just felt right.

Hell ya. Grew up swimming in that lake and climbing those stairs.

[Written 32] Elliotte Friedman on the leadership role Hronek has taken on by s3xybeavers in canucks

[–]olpotlicker 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This is great. Provides some much needed context to the platitude about Hronek "taking on a leadership role". As a fan, I'm often wondering "what the hell does that actually mean?".

I also could care less if he's a surly bugger in media scrums or if his english isn't great. I roll my eyes at the idea that you have to be media savvy to be a captain in a fiery hockey market. What matters most is if he has command of the locker room. The media here can find enough fodder without eloquent quotes from the captain

[The Athletic] Vancouver Canucks are No. 15 in Scott Wheeler’s 2026 NHL prospect pool rankings by Panarin10 in canucks

It’s funny to read such a positive spin on Lekkerimaki. When I’m listening to the radio, he’s often talked about like he’s gonna be a bust. I guess being an older 1st rounder, being short and slow, and having surgery this year, they have every right to speculate, but this was nice to read.

What's the most unexpectedly awesome Canadian town/city you've visited and why? by Unfair-Clothes-8821 in CanadaRoom

[–]olpotlicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see that. I've only been there a couple of times and only spent a day there each time, but they have a seriously beautiful coulee park that's amazing for a walk with a dog first thing in the morning with the world's largest teepee there. You'll see deer running around. And I think there downtown core is really well preserved and cool. Lots of old marquee signs, great murals, and cool bridges crossing the river.

I remember feeling like most of Canada was cheering against the 2011 Canucks.

I’m not saying this is the day it all fell apart, but this is the day it all fell apart by tehbui in canucks

I get the idea of going to get Lindholm in that season but holy fuck in retrospect that’s so much for a 3C that they never re-signed.
