- Short offseason
- New team, new city

Still put up 56 points....I'm sure he can find another 10-15 points in there somewhere this upcoming season.

Kadri's problem seems to be his attitude, he gets mentally derailed when things go bad and he can't seem to get back on track, hopefully we get 1st half Kadri and he learns to stay happy.

I think the thing is that as you go up in income tiers, the larger major cities in the US better cater to differentiating populations by income. There is a completely different life for the wealthy (athletes, actors, singers etc) than the regular folk.

Smaller cities like Calgary, yes there are obviously things that cater to the rich but not nearly as much so as the larger US cities.

I certainly don't underrate Hanifin, but with one year left and seemingly wants out Conroy needs to get what he can for him ASAP.

I would love to live somewhere that I can go to NFL games, MLB games and NHL games. With a nice climate also.

Dallas.

+ NBA, MLS


Chicago. New York. LA. Miami. If you live on eastern seaboard, you're within a LOT of sports <2 hours away.

I find baseball boring as dirt so that is an easy pass for me, NFL sure but if that is important I think guys could go to Seahawks games. Plus with the schedule I would imagine even living in a city would make it tough to go to local games.

Weather for sure but that has nothing to do with Calgary being a boring city.

[Flames Fan, Ph.D.]

If the price of seeing NFL games is living in the flat, hot wasteland of Dallas, count me out.

Again, different players want different things. No sense playing this city game.

I've figured it out! You were Yikes.

Yikes happens to be the only poster I've ever placed on ignore. The posting style and "brilliant" opinions are just as bad, and Yikes was banned in March of 2023 and rejoined CP in April as Spurs.

You won't convince me otherwise as you are one of the very few posters who has managed to make the ignore button look inviting. There are plenty of bad takes on CP and I'm sure I've had quite a few myself, but I still find myself occasionally agreeing with posters who usually have differing opinions. I can't really find an opinion of Yikes or yours that I agree with...and that account creation timing: red flag

[bluejays]

I do find the traditional American athlete complaining about the Canadian way of life, laughable. I remember when Antonio Davis in the early 2000s complaining about the metric system being taught to his kids in school, along with the weather, or not getting ESPN. New York more or less has the same climate of most of Canada. Go to a poop city like Philly and you'll see what true ghetto is, save for a few blocks in the city core which seem normal. Aside from down south climate and the partying that comes with the sun, I don't see what American's see in their cities. Most of them are trash. I'd take the physical safety of most of Canada vs the mediocre cities every day of the week.

LOL

Not even close. Wasn’t Yikes that racist super right wing poster? I might have that wrong but pretty sure that’s him. Not even remotely close to me.

I do always find it funny people that have to make such a big deal about how close mi fed and scared they are of different opinions. Especially when they are so vanilla and widely agreed on as mine are.

But good job to you showing everyone what a big man you are putting someone on ignore rather than just shutting up, clicking the ignore button and move in like everyone else does.

I took a lot of time thinking about this, I've been to every NHL city in the USA at least twice, If I would rank them best to worst:

Vegas
Tampa
Raleigh
Boston
.
the rest are PURE trash and would never live in one of them

How are Nashville, Minneapolis, and Denver pure trash?
I'm surprised that you visited them all twice considering you think 90% of America is pure trash.

Though I would agree that some places like Chicago and NYC would be a lotter better to visit than to live in.
