PIXLS Canadians

They’re more overdue than my library books.

Well this is the best squad i have seen in the last 20 years. If the goaltending can hold, I think they can make a good run at it.

And if not the paper bags are standing by ready to serve as creative fan masks… :slight_smile:

It’s about time to shake off the Curse of Harold Ballard…almost as bad as the Bambino. You’re right, goaltending will be key.

I am not Canadian. But i stumbled upon your thread and immediately thought about Stuart Mclean and his Vinyl Cafe. Is anyone here who knows him as well? I loved his stories about his fictional characters and those about the Towns he visited and the Music he presented in his shows. David Francey and the good lovelies are easy among my favourite musicians. Hope you don`t mind getting a bit of topic here. I would really love to visit Canada one time. But its a bit a long way from Switzerland.

Not Canadian but your comment reminded me of years ago when the New Orleans Saints were so bad their fans wore paper bags at games… That’s when they were referred to as the New Orleans Aints.

I have to admit that even as a lifelong Louisiana resident (alas, sad but true) I’ve rarely been a big Saints fan … Too much pain involved!

Well the Leafs haven’t won since 1968 (I was born in 1982). They haven’t made it past the first round of the playoffs since 2004. I exclusively use FOSS. I love pain, I guess.

This reminds me I need to finish editing the photos I have from Vancouver 2021.

This is now untrue :joy:

LMAO might as well still be true! The second round was hard to watch.

The problem with the leafs fanbase is every time there is a sliver of hope we act like we are owed a cup. That’s not how it works.

Florida’s goalie all of a sudden decided he was going to play like every penny of his $10M/yr contract. Not sure what they’re supposed to do.

I assume you watched FL absolutely curb stomp Carolina as well?

Intermittently…

We shall see how the post-Dubas era plays out, both in the GTA and in Pittsburgh.

Rumor now is Dubas is going after EK65.

Any of you here in Canada, know a good camera/lens repair/clean place? Like to send lenses in for tuneup.

I have never had anything repaired or cleaned before. I couldn’t afford it. I did some searching about twenty years ago (and perhaps did get a minor repair because I recall going on a road trip twice), but don’t remember the name of the company. I am fairly sure it isn’t http://suncameraservice.ca/ (not HTTPS) because it isn’t close to where I believe it should be. Perhaps they moved…

It will be interesting to see whether Dubas develops some skill in keeping Benjamins from flying out of his wallet.
