  1. Ryan would be a fool to go to the habs.

    NYI offered Smyth a $7M/7year contract. The habs better not offer something so stupid.

    Really? That sounds insane. Ryan Smyth for less than what we are paying Markov for 1.5 years? I would think that he would get a 7Mill/3 year contract (about ... I am not super in to player's contract value .... ).

  2. The habs will not have two first round picks by the time the draft starts, they might not even have one.

    We'd need a willing dance partner for that sort of move ... just because we might be willing, doesn't mean it will happen. Two first round picks in the teens may not draw that much ... unless the team with a higher pick really doesn't need anything that is on the shelf!

  3. But what if the liar who is guarding hell hates his job and really wants people to go to heaven? :lol:

    Well then Trizak's answer won't work either ... and he would probably get replaced by a more efficient guard ... but this is all theoretical and we would need to consult with a Theologian who specializes in the contractual obligations of Hell door guardsmen (or women). That would be my guess.

    Here's a real easy one:

    What goes up and down but never moves?

    The emotions of a manic depressive?

  4. Trizz is correct!

    Bacchus your answer assumes you already know what door is which, or who is the liar, anyway it doesn't work :P

    actually, if you think about it, the liar will lie and tell you he wants you to take the door to heaven, and the honest person will want you to go to heaven. Assuming, of course, the the liar is the guard to hell, and the truth teller is the guard to heaven. But it will work.

  5. could this have cost perhaps 10 pts for kovy and maybe one more victory for the habs and making the playoffs?

    Well, lets not forget that Abeisher probably lost us 2-8 points down the stretch. But if no one ever made mistakes, we'd have a 160 point season. So, this isn't about making the playoffs ... I think this is about Kovalev not being a team player, being a shit disturber, and just wanting to perpetuate his ability to sign large contracts.

    Even if he plays with us this season, and does super well, I'd still let him walk at the end of his contract unless he was going to sign an incentive based contract. His attitude this past season was unforgivable.

  6. After reading this article I have even less respect for Kovalev. I mean, if you are going to shit disturb, at least have strength in your convictions. But if your convictions are less than 100%, bite the bullet and play hard.

    Also, I think he is a weasel. Who, if not him, are the ones sticking around for a paycheck ... it is him and his buddy Samsonov. Who else? Maybe Ryder? But most other people played hard.

    Comments like that should stay private ... he is just trying to stir the pot again, and it will be seen by the team as a very unteamly thing to do. The sooner we can eject this reject, the better for the team.

  7. There isn't too many forces in the world that couldn't so I fail to see your point. France would beat us.

    The point is that it isn't classified as an army seeing as it is illegal accoding to their constitution (a result of their uber agressivity in WWII and the colonial period that preceeded it. Thus, they have an army, but they call it a defense force.

    So, my point is that although they don't have an army, they do have a serious force that could wage war. Capiche?

  8. There are two doors, one leads to heaven the other to hell. In front of each door is a guard. One guard always tells the truth and the other always lies, you don't know who is who. Can you ask one question to one guard to determine which is the door to heaven?

    You could ask, "which door do you want me to chose?". The G at the door of hell will point to heaven, and the g at the door of heaven will point to heaven.

    Then you can make your decision if you want to go to heaven or hell.

  9. well, Japan has a huge military expenditure, they just call it a defense force as a way around the whole problem that they are not allowed to have a military. They are about to buy a whack load of these badboys to defend Japan ....

    Their defense force could kick Canada's army's asses!

    Also, Ireland, until recently, had a serious terrorism problem ... and they were probably seriously limited in what they could get for a military by England.

    But aside from that, makes sense that the Northern European countries and Canada are up there.

    What about Cuba ... they are pretty peaceful! Very little crime, and very little military ... aside from that whole Guantanimo Bay deal.
