The Canucks will be better than last year. That's not saying much though cuz they sucked last year. My early prediction is that Colorado will win the NW division. And I think its going to be more competitive than a lot of people are saying. It may not be the best div in the league this year but its still going to be very close.

avs don't have a goalie, i think calgary is taking that division.

I'll agree that the avs have possibly the worst goalie tandem in the league, but for some reason i think Edmonton might surprise alot of people and take the NW division.

In other news, i wouldn't like to be a wings fans this morning. Losing 3-2 to a team that is rebuilding must suck. :p

i'm so glad hockey is back

What a game by vancouver last night eh? If the canucks keep playing the kind of hockey we saw last nite, i dont care if they are bottom feeders. It is so much more exciting to see an energized hockey team than a team who doesnt seem to care! If the energy for every night is that high, it's gonna be a great year!

GREAT tribute to Luc. I can hardly keep those tears back. It was emotional, kudos to the canucks management.

Gonna be some game tomorrow against calgary. Regehr is back? It's kinda scary how ONE person can really mess up that D. I can't begin to count how many times the Flames would come back from a deficit because of the energy they can create from a fight or a hit or a short-hand goal...but everytime something is tried to be started last night, Canucks match it and deal with it better. O! I m so glad hockey is back lol.

The game in Vancouver last night was absolutely spectacular. I don't think I've seen that kind of hockey in our city in years. It was a picture perfect game to be honest. The ceremony for Luc was enough to bring a tear to the eyes of any hockey fan.

If the Canucks can play like that for a good chunk of this year I think we have a chance for a deep drive in the playoffs. The team is looking great, definitely a huge improvement over last year. Bernier is going to be a huge fan favorite very soon!

I still have faith in Sundin coming over here, if he comes, I guarantee a deep playoff berth. :p

Anything can happen really, but you don't want to forget that a much more complete Ottawa Senators started last year looking like heroes and might as well have ended out of the playoffs. That isn't to say that Vancouver won't do anything of course but having expectations of them doing anything other than making the playoffs is overshooting (whether they end up out of the playoffs or win the cup, they ****ing better not... GO HABS).

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

      With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.

    • CANT FIND SECURE BOOT ON BIOS

      Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
