Don't Go Breakin' My Heart...

As some of you will know by now, Dustin Slade has quit the Vancouver Giants. He says that he has done so to pursue a pro career, but I doubt any team would want a quitter. NOBODY likes a quitter.


I understand that as a 20 year old it is imperative that he play to his fullest potential during this season, but I don't understand why he felt the need to detach himself after the team has done so much for him. They gave up Chad Scharff and Tommy Tartaglione just to keep him, and he leaves the team on the notice of one day. Normally, this would not be of much consequence, but this is not the case for this team; especially at this time. The Vancouver Giants, the best team in the WHL, has automatic berth into the Memorial Cup. Now our team must rely on a 17 year old goalie with no playoff experience to lead them to the Stanley Cup of the CHL. Dustin was arguably one of the best goalies in the WHL and will be sorely missed, but it may be for the best. His loyalty was obviously questionable, which is the last thing a team full of champions needs. Goodbye Dustin. I wish you the best, but I still have to say: Go Giants Go!

Moving on to more pleasant news, Degrassi Season Six is finally upon us!!!!!!!!!



I'm slightly ashamed to say that I almost forgot about the CTV webcast, but luckily talking to Amburger reminded me. Let's get to it, shall we?

Yes, it's not a dream, MODEL BEHAVIOUR IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!



I was so excited to see Model Behaviour (Sean), and then I noticed the ponytail. I must admit, I am not a fan of the male ponytail. For some reason I think it is very unappealing, but since it's Degrassi, I'll forgive.

Another thing that I'm willing to forgive is the new begining credits.



It reminds me of a really bad soap opera (credit to Amber for the analogy) though I'm happy that the ending has is very similar.



If Degrassi didn't come out of Marco's back, like it has since season one, I was gonna freak.

I am also SOOOOO relieved the everyone is friends with Spinner again.



It was so sad last season when everyone was ignoring him. Not to mention it drove him to be friends with that stupid Darcy chick. Speaking of Darcy she totally got bizzurned by Paige. At Paige's bon voyage to Banting University she came up to Paige and said "Hey Paige, I guess I'm the only one not sorry to see you go. I know you had sex with Spinner last year. I thought you were above being a low-grade ho, but I guess I was wrong." to which Paige responded "Sweetie, I would love to indulge your need to ruin my party with a full-on catfight, but I'll pass. Save the drama for highschool hun, I'm moving on."

OH SNAP!!

and this was her face afterwards:



Priceless. Paige owns all.

Oh, did I mention Dylan is finally back?



I guess since he's finished filming Canada Russia '72 he can devote more time to Degrassi. Hurrah!

and I cannot possibly talk about this epidode without mentioning my favourite quote



Yes folks, that was almost as funny as what happened afterschool today. Let me explain further. Katie, Ashley and I were walking down the hallway when I noticed a bunch of pennies on the floor. I alerted Katie and we proceeded to pick them up. Just then we noticed Mr. Patrick walking in front of us. Katie motioned that she was going to throw one of her pennies at the Patty. I egged her on, not actually expecting her to do so, yet she did. Her first penny missed Patty, but the second one hit him square on the back of the head.



Me and Ashley were laughed so hard as Patty gave Katie a lame lecture. Like stated above, funniest thing ever.


As I close off this entry, I urge you all to Vote for Rory Fitzpatrick.
www.voteforrory.com



Rory Fitzpatrick is probably the worst defencemen on the entire Vancouver Canucks team, and maybe in the league. Every year the NHL has an All-Star game in which the Eastern Teams play against the Western Teams. The beauty of the All-Star game is that the All-Star are chosen by the fans. If you follow the link you will get to chose which players to send in. If you don't follow hockey, I suggest that you choose the following, in this order:

Crosby Malkin Ovechkin Chara Redden Lehtonen

Naslund D.Sedin H.Sedin Ohlund Pronger Luongo

then as your non-ballot choices

Ruutu, J and FITZPATRICK!!

this is the most important part!

If you are having trouble understanding how to do so please follow this link:

If he actually made it to the All-Star game, it would make my life; please, help me!
