The only confirmed closings I know of are: 10.PARKWAY PONTIAC BUICK INC. 18. Sainte-Martine Automobiles ( Pontiac Buick GMC ) ( Ste-Martine ) 19. Fichault Pontiac Buick GMC ( Châteauguay I spoke with my dealer yesterday, and he confirmed he received his letter indicating he would be...

Been once. Would never go back.

FWIW, it appears Picasso's will be re-opening in perhaps a month or so, with new old ownership. Nothing confirmed, though the source is a good one. (long-time employee)

I think one would do well in the downtown area. It would be a familiar face for our american visitors (as opposed to say, Les Trois Brasseurs), and their wings are absolutely awesome. Whenever I'm in Toronto, I stop at Hooters specifically for the wings. I was there over the weekend with a large...

Hi Ziggy, I was only responding to your comment earlier that the roster was an abberation because there were 12 defensemen. I never made any comments regarding what I felt the quality of those defensemen were. For the record, I think the defense corps is somewhat underrated, as there are no...

I'm gonna disagree with the statement that he was a bust as a #1 overall pick. It wasn't an average year, but a dirt poor year. The only players who've had a comparable career to Hamrlik are Alexei Yashin, Sergei Gonchar and Jere Lehtinen. As such, Tampa picked (arguably) the player who went on...

None of Biron, Cote, Valentenko and Rivers are listed on the official roster, per canadiens.com, though all are under contract to the Habs. Incidently, NHL rules allow a team to keep 50 players under contract, but only 23 on the active roster. This allows a team to field a farm team, of which at...

If you have someone in your circle of family/friends with excess aeroplan miles, you can get to Toronto round-trip for about $85. (only paying the taxes)

The NHL schedule is based on a 6-year template that has the Habs hosting each division of the Western Conference every third year. This year, we host the central division (Detroit, Nashville, Chicago, Columbus and St Louis). Similarly, we visit each division of the western conference every third...

Cullimore was making approximately half of Samsonov's contract, and when you buy out a player's contract, the salary cap hit is spread out over twice the length of the contract. In this case, since Cullimore had 1 year remaining, his 1.3 million contract will count $650k each this year and next...

I travelled to Eastern Europe last year, and though I didn't do any hobbying, the thought did cross my mind. The hotel I stayed in had a "local sex guide" in their brochure section and had some helpful hints. #1, when hobbying, always let your hotel know where you are. It might be...

Wow, thanks for the flashback to my college years. At the time, I lived right across the street, and their food helped me through many a long night. :-) HD

Hmmm, I don't normally participate (ok, I never do), but I may be in the neighborhood around that time, so consider me an official "maybe"

I was there last summer, and the porn shops have apparently all moved over one block. Apparently, so have the SWs, as I was approached multiple times by what I can only assume were pimps. Also cool was an actual peep show, complete with girls sitting around waiting for a peeper, though I chose...
