  1. After 271 games as a Canuck Miller has the second highest ppg average in the history of the franchise. I’m glad Alvin didn’t bend over just to make a deal.
  2. I thought there were limits on goalie gear sizes? Vasilevskiy looks like he wears 3 pairs of goalie pants
  3. It only took Boudreau 7 games to get these guys back to .500 and it's not even January 1st. Dare I say playoffs are a possibility again?
  4. I think of development being more of a coaching responsibility. And it didn’t help matters when you have consecutive rookie coaches who are probably more concerned about their own survival than helping young players. Remember the “this isn’t a development league” mantra?
  5. Quinn’s effort at both ends is off the charts, really impressive
  6. If Benning's on thin ice any change of coach would just be an interim appointment. Don't see the big coaches available jumping at that choice without long term contract protection, which I also don't see the owner agreeing to. Be careful what you wish for, all signs point to another inexperienced/ rookie coach if Green is cut loose imo.
  7. Oh, god yes the Oilers had copious amounts of horseshoes up their butt and still managed to fail, I don't dispute that. My point is that there were plenty of us who thought that we were better than the Oilers for turning the corner without the benefit of draft lottery wins when reality is proving to be something quite different.
  8. The "decade of darkness" is in reference to the Oilers rebuild (coined by their own fans I believe), which more than a few of us on here laughed about over the last couple of years.... it doesn't seem so funny now that we are on the bottom looking up.
  9. I remember when "a decade of darkness" sounded like a ridiculous amount of time in which to rebuild a franchise.....and now its sounds perfectly reasonable haha.
  10. I wonder why I always hear that “the NHL isn’t a developmental league” but the Canucks have hired back to back rookie coaches.
