Agreed. the 2.0L ecoboost seems like a good little engine.

If VW sold the diesel Tiguan in Canada I'd lean that way, but in typical VAG fashion the best stuff stays in Europe

Byron is a waste, seen it all before with Ranheim.

Yet again players like Glencross and Stajan have been terrible tonight.
guys get stopped on shots from there all the time its not like he missed an open net. It was a bang-bang play and the goaltender was there, not to mention the goaltender is playing an outstanding game

Yes, he really should be. He may not be scoring, but he does everything else well. Sorry, but he is an NHL'er, much to your dismay.

Tbh Jooris should have had that wraparound instead of going for the assist.

Who pissed in Hudler's cornflakes today? Picking a fight with Dougie Hamilton... Earlier in the game the camera zoomed in on him mouthing off Rask.

Ranheim was pretty good. Sure, he sometimes was snake bitten offensively, but he had a good career, so that's kind of the opposite of a waste.

Well, let's put it into context. Brodie has a bad game what 1 in every 20 or so? Easier to digest. Especially since his contributions to the teams success is far....far greater.

Gaudreau? 41 points and still learning the NHL. Still producing.

Byron, glorious scoring chances constantly, consistently misses all of them (save one or two in the how ever many games this season is long) .

I only caught a bit of it but the part I heard basically had her saying the team should pick one horse and run with it, and Hartley rewarding Ramo with the start because he got a win in the last game might not be the best method for a playoff push

These are the games he usually plays best when he is fired up. I love grumpy "dad" Jiri.

I don't like the Edge for some reason. It seems out of place in their lineup. Like Ford farmed out the design to Chrysler, and ended up with a re-badged Journey or something.

Escapes have been around long enough they have a strong following, and really good resale. I would go with a loaded Escape over a low-mid range edge. However, if I was in that market, I would give the new Cherokee a serious look too. They are pretty damn cool, and definitely buck the "soccer mom" image.
