seagoal Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 35 minutes ago, stackem30 said: That Seattle thread devolved into "Durr, buncha gawdamned librul hipster snowflakes in Seattle!!!1" pretty quickly. I stopped checking in. I think I heard that the orca motif was more or less imposed by Orca Bay Entertainment, the company that owns the Canucks and Rogers Arena. But a cursory glance at their Wikipedia page says they've changed their name. There was some of that, but mostly it was about colors and names. Orcas are certainly relevant up there in the Pacific....South West of Canada, but it is a stretch from the actual name of the team. I wasn't aware of the ownership situation. P.S. Do you Canadians call Vancouver the Pacific South West, is that a thing? I'm always thinking when we Americans say that Vancouver, BC is in the Pacific North West "but, it's...another...country......" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we did the northwest coast of canada, it would be the arctic, or almost the arctic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seagoal Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 No, Vancouver is in Southwestern Canada, not Northwestern Canada. We say Seattle is in the Pacific Northwest. You should say Vancouver is in the Pacific Southwest. Saying Vancouver is the Pacific Northwest implies to the United States. Now you take back that dope remark.

TheGoalNet Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Pickard new set on the right. Previous version was Pad Skinz Price’s #SolidColoredPadsCrew makes game action. This is fascinating to me because I heard from outlets / sources that these were just for practice. Fascinated to know why he changed. Especially with how great he’s playing.
