  1. I can't believe JB managed to get anything for the worst D in the nhl. Well done Benning.
  2. I believe he wants to make the NHL, at least that's the vibe he seems to be giving off. I would be surprised if he didn't sign, but I have no qualms with him going back to college.
  3. Lol the last time I saw anyone stand up for a teammate on this team was when our goalie had to do it.
  4. Listening to his interviews he sounds determined to be in the NHL. Wouldn't surprise me if he makes the team right away.
  5. Don't like his injury history, but who knows might be a worth a gamble.
  6. Shocked we got him, gotta thank MTL and ARZ for that.
  7. Canucks have two jobs today:

     

    Don't trade the pick, and pick BPA.

  8. Challenge for a roster spot? What challenge? He is basically a lock on this team.
  9. Gotta feel for Leipsic tonight, traded from the top Western Team in the League to the worst.

      he felt great as he was not playing much and was given a chance to play, so now he might not like it,but when traded he was happy!

      he will get over it in a couple months when weed is legal.  :gocan:

      LOL true that

       

  10. Sounds like you didn't watch the game, all the young guys got benched as the physicality picked up.
  11. I don't blame them, he is too weak on the puck. Reminds me of Raymond falling over all the time.
  12. The SC parade will be fun in Vegas.

      Vegas to win the draft lottery and the cup.lol.

  13. Our powerplay could be lethal next year with Boeser and Pettersson.
  14. This kid is a gem, will make the team next year easily.
  15. NYR had one hell of a TDL, wouldn't be surprised to see them rebuild their team faster than the canucks.

      They've always been a boom/ bust team... bringing in then shipping out big name guys for value.

      @Jimmy McGillHeh, I couldn't help think when reading your post.

       

      Brendan Leipsic and Tyler Motte were picks once tooooooooooooooo.

       

      I swear some people are angry because they think the pick that was never offered for Vanek is the next Pavel Datsyuk.

       

      I get it, people want lottery tickets, the sky is the limit after-all.  But sometimes it's better to just cash in your $2 prize winning scratch-and-win ticket and buy a slurpee.

      @Wilbur sometimes a 5th rounder is Jamie Benn. Sometimes its Gaudette. Sometimes its Dane Fox or worse. Most of the time (>80%) they never see the NHL even for a look. 

       

      Hey it would have been great to get a 2nd for Vanek but thats what Evander Kane was going for today. 

  16. I'm curious how they will slot horvat in the coming games, Cali road trip is going to be deadly.
  17. I believe JB said he would make room for youngsters if they impress so there's that. Forget which interview it was if anyone remembers.

  19. Thats debatable yes they made the playoffs, but if I recall we beat them every time we played each other.
