Hurlshort Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Patrick Marleau scored his 300th and 301st career goals last night, and they've all been with the Sharks. I really hope they find a way to keep Marleau and Thornton over the next few prime years of their careers. He has a chance of getting 500 goals all with one club, and that is special in today's sports. Makes all those trade rumors sound crazy over the alst two years.

I'm glad to see him prospering despite losing the C. Similar thing happened to Thornton in Boston didn't it? Marleau's be a favorite player of mine for a while, I'd like to see the Sharks keep him around. Although, can't say I wouldn't mind seeing him over here in New Jersey.

Hm, it seems to me that Marleau has been with the Sharks for.. forever already. 300 goals? OK, I just checked it.. He's been with the Sharks for 12 seasons. To put things in perspective: Ovechkin has been with the Caps for five years and has 244 goals so far. That's kind of impressive.. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

He was built to score goals. Comparing anyone these days to him is going to have Ovechkin come out on top. Also, Canada picked up their second win at the world Juniors. 6-0 over Switzerland. TSN analysts were saying the first two goals probably shouldn't have counted. Edited December 28, 2009 by Deraldin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's the ugly +/- rating? Edited December 30, 2009 by Hurlshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's the ugly +/- rating? I'd still rather have Lecavalier than Richards. He's having an off year for himself, but he's still on pace for almost 80 points. The only other player I'm a little iffy on is Brenden Morrow. Maybe it's because I haven't seen him play, although I'm not sure who I'd replace him with. I'd be tempted to grab Ryan Smyth to replace him at left wing though. Edited December 31, 2009 by Deraldin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kor Qel Droma Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Morrow is a valid choice. Sure, he may not be an offensive dynamo like the rest of the selected players, but he's one gritty mofo who will most likely be doing most of the nasty work for team Canada.

Hurlshort Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I agree about Morrow. Of course the same can be said about Shane Doane, I was surprised he missed the list too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deraldin Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 (edited) I'm just disappointed that Mike Fisher didn't make the team. Edit: Geez, Doan has been on just about every single Canadian team for international competition since '03. Only year he missed was '06, but he made up for that by being on the Olympic team.

Kor Qel Droma Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Here is an interesting blog about the 'b' team that the Canadians could ice. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to see St.Louis, Lecavalier, Boyle and Brad Richards team up again on the power play. They had a lot of magic in Tampa Bay. Richards is having a decent comeback season in Dallas after being/playing hurt for the better part of the last two seasons. But when you've got Crosby and Thornton as your top two centers and about four other players who can excel at the position I guess some tough choices have to be made. Jaguars4ever is still alive.

Volourn Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 "Terrigno said 45 people ordered off the menu and their total bill came to $14,234.23, including $677.98 for GST. The restaurant usually adds an automatic 18 per cent gratuity for a large group, which would bring the total to $16,796.39." He's just as bad as they are. 'auto gratuity'.

Hurlshort Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 That's pretty standard in restaurants for parties over 8. Pushing out food for a party of 45 is much more difficult than pushing out food for a party of four. It requires more attention from the cooking and the wait staff. Also, I'm not sure about Canada, but in the US waiters are actually taxed on the tips, so there is some expectation there. Have you ever worked in a restaurant Volo?

Plain, and simple. Knowing how something works doesn't mean you approve it or fin dit acceptable. Tipping should be just that tipping - A BONUS FOR GOOD WORK. NOTM ACTUAL SALARY. That's the restuarant owner's taking advantage of their employees and customers. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
