Ongoing NHL Thread - Part Brock and Roll Four Lines

Period pain testing, now this. This week is not painting a good picture of the Calgary Stampede.

Have you ever been to the Stampede, Muthafucka????

The land in Vegas was probably costlier (not sure if that's counting into the construction costs on both).

But generally speaking construction labour costs more today, material costs are definitely higher and then there's the technology that goes into these places, stricter codes regarding environmental impacts etc., amenities, all of that.

All in all the big jump was going from cookie cutters and true "arenas" in the 60s-80s to the modern definition of event centres and sport-specific stadiums like ballparks and football fields.

Yeah it all makes sense. It just seems that they went from a couple hundred million to over a billion quickly. Stadiums at least.

*Its on a cove where a giant "waste to energy incinerator" is, so its debatable if that liquid can be considered "water".

As I understand it, the decades of work there has turned the "water" from crunchy to more chewy.

Is that the 1979 team that got their asses handed to them by the USSR team?

1981 NHL All-Star team I believe (Pretty sure that's John Garrett on the first row extreme right lol)

Ok I was basing it off of Gordie being third from the right on the bottom. Wearing Hartford mismatched gloves.

Actually I think it's 1980. Let me double-check.

Edit: 1980 it is (player names match up for the Wales Conference)

This looks like a young Eugene Levy to me

That looks like a pretty good bit Eugene is doing.

I'd put AM as 75% gone regardless of success and 100% gone if these fucks can't putt their asses out of the first round. Leafs are going to have to make some serious decisions next summer.

Keller is the third best player on that list and I can't believe he's still in fucking AZ.

Tortorella defends his GM, is ‘a little pissed off' about criticism of Flyers

From Johnny Gaudreau to Tony DeAngelo, head coach John Tortorella discussed that and more about the Flyers’ offseason. By Jordan Hall

www.nbcsports.com

"The thing that bothers me and some of the things I've read is people are upset about Tony DeAngelo," Tortorella said. "Tony DeAngelo's a hell of a player, Tony DeAngelo has personality. Is he going to say and do some stupid stuff? You're damn right he is. But I'd rather have a guy doing stupid stuff than having a choir boy here just going about your business. You don't win that way, you don't win championships, you don't build a team without any personality. Tony's going to bring that and, plus, he's a hell of a player.
