  1. Gotta disagree with you there. 1994 in game 7 he scored two goals with broken ribs. And under his leadership we lost the cup by one goal to a loaded Ranger team. No we didn't win the cup, but to say he didn't deliver isn't fair.
  2. It might be more appropriate to judge this management group once training camp arrives. We'll know more about their direction then, as this offseason has just started, they still have a couple of months to make things happen. I don't think we have enough info to judge JR/Alvin one way or the other right now.
  3. Huh, trade announcements still coming in. Perhaps the Canucks still have a trade coming.
  4. Rutherford has been around the block a few times though, I doubt that he would let ownership interfere. IMO it's very likely he's insisted on full control in his contract.
  5. Unless Miller is adamant about wanting to leave the Canucks, then I don't see how we can trade him this year. I'm thinking that trading him at this year's trade deadline, with the team playing so well after getting rid of Green, would be a big gut-punch to the rest of the team by sending their best player packing. It's essentially a message from management saying that they don't believe in the team despite their high level of play this year, and I'm worried about the effect on morale. If the Canucks don't go anywhere this year, and seem to be out of contention next year, then trade him at next year's deadline. If we get less assets in return, compared to what we would get this year, then so be it.
  6. He's not coming to the Vancouver Canucks, so that makes it very good news.
  7. Yeah, or something that resembles a locker room anyway.
  8. I'd be a good reason for McDavid to ask for a trade, if he wants out of Edmonton. No one could blame McDavid for not wanting to play with that clown
  9. Good, looks like Rutherford plans on staying far away from Kane. This is the best news Canuck fans could've hoped for in regards to Kane. Let him go to Toronto, it'll be entertaining to watch him destroy their locker room.
  10. Good gawd, he really screwed this up. What does cancelling his contract mean for his debt? If his appeal loses, it must change his bankruptcy situation.
  11. I don't want us to get Chyckrun either, as the price will be too high. But his +/- stats are misleading imo. Look at Sakic, his +/- was brutal in his first three years, but like Chyckrun he was on a terrible team as well.
  12. A guy who had got 49pts in 56 games last season had somehow cleared waivers and been demoted. Then no takers as of yet when he's being offered with 50% salary retained. That's a red flag if I've ever seen one. Stay far away from Kane.
  13. I agree, I wonder if we can pry Nick Ritchie for a reasonable price.
  14. Yeah, a handful. A small percentage of total Canucks fans were there, and of the total fans that were there, only a small percentage actually did any rioting.
  15. I agree. It's better to keep Gillis away from this team, we don't need him doing another hatchet job on the Canucks.
