  1. Would it not be more sensible to wait to see how they both do in the NHL at a higher level of play before you predict who might be better? There sure are a lot of crystal balls out there
  2. Virtanen is too young for the NHL. He will play junior again next year.
  3. The guy scored 30 goals last year for Boston and you talk crap like that. Give your head a shake. Even Rip van Winkle woke up.
  4. You are calling people "dum" when you can't even spell the word? Appears your English, sentence structure, punctuation and spelling is not conducive to a learned individual either. You need to understand that being rude and crude to others can be turned around to bite you back. By the way, Garrison was not drafted by the Canucks so why do you consider him a "wasted pick"? So you got it all wrong my friend. Try calming down, you are not at your best when you appear to be upset.
  5. Why question who is better between those players? Your team selected Virtanen and that should really be enough to cheer him on. He is big and strong, a great skater and has a sniper shot. Considered to be a power forward. They could have., should have scenarios are nothing but water under the bridge. They mean nada. I believe Benning is just getting started here, especially when he has dumped a good chunk of salary just trading Cryin Ryan and Garrison. Can't wait for free agency time. Wanna bet there will be more surprises to come. It could be pleasing to say the least.
  6. The trick on CDC is to distinguish the comedians from the trolls. Half of the nay sayers here are trying to pull your chain. Don't worry about the others, they are bored because school is out.
  7. Idaho...ped you wouldn't have asked me that as I don't wear cloths like Delaware..s. I am a Ghana.
  8. Don't you mean the bozos on Team 1040. They haven't got a rumour right yet
  9. IMVHHO there is the difference between night and day between Willie and Crow. Willie does not yell at the players like Crow. Benning has indicated he likes a calm and collected coach who can maintain the respect of players. I believe a yelling Tortorella lost the entire dressing room last year and he was subsequently tuned out; a big reason why so many good players had such a crappy year. That is also why Linden stated he wanted players to reestablish the want to play again. The entire team was not a very happy crowd.
  10. Let's just hope the Vancouver fans will stay tolerant long enough for Trevor to prove himself before they turn on him for not meeting their immediate expectations.
  11. Negativity runs rampant in these forums but then again what has anyone got to lose by trying to forecast what will or will not happen with the Nucks. A coaching change sure helped the Kings but I never want to see a losing team again just to get a low draft pick. Go figure that one out. Peaches: when someone pays what we pay to see a game, I expect to see a winner playing, not a loser. Please stick your idea about losing to get a low draft pick in your ear
  12. A little different with coaches. If they are no good, you just fire them
  13. Neither team quit in the series. IMO the Kings were more tenacious. It is all a game of luck and inches. A stick in the way, a puck that stops on the goal line, pucks that hit the crossbar or post. An inch either way. Would those puck have stopped on the line on fresh clean ice? Having said that though, when a team never stops, the breaks all go in their favor.
