My money is on us bringing in Ryan (95% chance). I bet we take a good run at Tobias Rieder (50%). Of all the potential depth guys we've apparently been sniffing around he has one virtue the others don't, he's 25. Pretty much all the other names that have come up are significantly older: Grabner...

Yup me too. I usually go to the Monogram in Fifth Avenue Place or several of the DeVilles (Centrium Place, Brookfield or Fashion Central). I'm good with whatever though.

This had better be the basis for the building theming: Ogden and Bowness... interesting places to get your start in the city.

I've been reading pretty ravenously too. I feel like they can't be done. We still need some scoring help. There's a rumour that the team brass and Brian McGrattan were spotted having dinner with Ryan Reaves. I'm not sure why the team feels like they might need a specialized pugilist, but it...

Yup, I could sometime. I work downtown about 80% of the time.

When I was reading about the trade as it happened I was sure we got smoked, but now that the dust has settled a little I'm much more sanguine about it. I don't necessarily love it because I don't think we really realized full value on Dougie or Fox, but I think what we're getting back looks...

It really seems like they're taking forever to finesse these across the line, but that's probably just me being impatient. Has there been any talk of a grand opening date? I imagine there's a tonne of work do be done inside. Not till next year I'm guessing. I can't wait until that lobby is open...

Wow dang, that's really something. I finished school in 2009 and I had thought then that there was a lot of work being done around campus. Turns out I was wrong when I thought the 2015 grads would have it all. It'll be the 2030 grads at this rate and they're gonna get way more than I imagined.

'Scuze me while I kiss the Sky! I love it regardless of it's colour, but I kinda think it would have stuck out more on the skyline had it been white.

I like the location. There are too many empty lots on the West end of the Beltline. Let's hope the design of this project does something to differentiate itself from some of it's more tired looking neighbours.

That new render is a significant improvement. I like how it makes use of 5th street, but it looks a little tight on 17th. I'm also a little surprised that the city would butcher that left hand turn so badly, but I can't say I'd be against all the added patio space. The public art looks a little...

I'd never heard of Spruce Meadows relocating. I'm interested if there's anything concrete to back that up. I could see how the growth of the city could be cramping their style, but they've got quite the facility there. I can't see how you could move it? Maybe they're building some more...

I'm a Brodie fan personally and thought his under performance in the last few seasons has a lot to do with Gulutzan utilizing him improperly on the left hand side. That said if he were to be traded it wouldn't come as any kind of great shock to me. The Flames have a deep defensive corps both in...

I'd like to see a map how you'd divvy up Ontario, if indeed you would. I could also create a map for you if you told me which counties/subdivisions you'd put where. The Senate is a silly beast. I'd far rather see the EEE model that was popping up in the 90s, than what we're left with today. It...

Power metal isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it's energetic as hell. This what they kick off every concert with: I'm also heavily considering Mastodon. Even though I'm a big fan of both progressive rock and metal Mastodon didn't really click for me for the longest time, but I really dig...

I've heard this too, but I wonder how much of this is serious rumour versus fan speculation. I think it's a really bad idea too. The team is unquestionably better with the second best goal scoring defenceman in the league on board. Especially when considering that the key trade partner named has...

I really like it. I think it would definitely help fill in Canada's "hidden North." It would also add an alternative all-Canadian route in the event that the Trans-Canada is being worked on. The biggest benefit might be that it would help access natural resource projects.

That's all well and reasonable and really not to take away from your arguments but here in the fantasy politics/geography thread, reason is only useful as pretext. Please support your arguments with well drawn battle plans for how the People's Repulic of Toronto plans to take back Hamilton from...

I guess it's good that they're talking again, but I'm not too optimistic as long as Ken King is at the other side of the table for the Flames. I also don't like their request for closed door negotiations, they know that it weakens the city's position to not have it's enraged citizenry telling...

A pox on Toronto's transit plans! :p JK! But, in favour of my plan I'd argue that having all the constituents of the GTA in a single province hasn't really resulted in any fantastic results either. I'm sure the Toronto adjacent provinces could agree on a joint transit planning committee. In all...
