Seven

Oct 23rd, 2008 | By Mike | Category: News

As Sean noted earlier and  Canucks.com has up on their site now, the team is posing a riddle for the home game against the Oilers on Saturday:

Who else suffered rejection for an NHL franchise, but never quit?
Who else turned a symbol of tradition into a passionate tradition copied all across sports?
Who else survived the insults of the Flying “V”, the Plate of Spaghetti and the Skate going down?
Who else turned a symbol of surrender into a passionate tradition copied all across sports?

So any ideas? My quick stabs in the dark are:

1. It’s a variation of the movie Se7en customized for the Canucks, including a whole new crop of seven deadly sins: Jarome Iginla, Joe Sakic, Rob Niedermayer, Mark Messier, Dan Cloutier, the entire San Jose Shark roster throughout history and Pamela Anderson deep tonguing Fin.

2. The Oilers will figure out a way to throw out seven more bloggers from their section of the press box.

3. On a day where all 30 teams play, they’ll be saluting the Vancouver fan base specifically and giving away free money, free puppies or possibly your own Tim Horton’s store. And I’ll be watching from afar getting drunk (ok, fine, that’s a given no matter what they do).

Any other thoughts?

  36. This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
