Odd.

Canucks need to win non stop. No other way

And sadly not likely

The only possible way in, is to just win.

Could work, but they have such a lead that they'd have to lose hard and we'd have to be decent.

Although I'm watching other teams, the reality is we have to be nearly perfect to have a decent chance at making it, so that's what I'm mostly focused on.

Dropping gas.

Yay.

Guess oil companies enjoyed the nice jump in their income statements. 

It won’t change on the island 

Good thing the ringer on mine is on silent. But I hope they find Liam safe. 

LOL I had Pink Floyd on loud as I was vacuuming. Nope, saw it as a text but I was not "alerted".

@Ghostsof1915 The dude was arrested in Ontario. They were all in Ontario.

Regardless of how I feel about things, your positivity makes me a bit happier.

No way overpay for Laffy and Schneider that throw in first doesn't make up the loss of Miller and the Canucks top prospect Jack Rathbone. Kravstov is a wild card.

Much rather Garland to the Rangers for Chytil, Lundqvist, and a 1st to start negotiations.

Take it and run.

Okay with moving Rathbone. Already have Hughes.

As much as I want miller to stay it would have to be something like that for me to be on board 

there's a lot of opportunity for him in Toronto right now.... 

Montreal almost kept him over price in prices earlier years 

Hot take - We need to start Halak against the Wings. Demko needs a rest.

Our point percentage with Boudreau is something around .650, which would be right near the top of the Pacific. Our horrid start is really what's likely to keep us from making the playoffs.

Miller isn’t going to re-sign with us.  He’s going to leave, so it’s best to trade him now and get assets.  Or we just lose him for nothing.  

If we have to choose, then I say it's Boeser who should go.  He's the only one who wouldn't be worth his salary, if he gets his QO.

Horvat is tonnes valuable.  I would be sad to loose the guy with the potential to be like the heart of the Steamer.  Boeser I'm impartial.  Miller it comes down to re-signing or moving for value.  Please work it out Canucks Brass.

Lol script updates to "Player acquired from NYR for JT Miller" and "Player acquired from NJ for Brock Boeser"

We only censor Loui in these parts 

Don’t like Laine’s character. If he’s traded, would be his third team in a short span. No thanks. 

Laine is not the droid we are looking for. He's was a good goal scorer sometimes, but has rarely entered his own zone on the back check and has never met his goalie. He put up 138 goals in his first four seasons, but only 18 in his last two and a half. Do you think maybe other teams have figured him out and that he has no more tools in his toolbox?

Yeah. I’d say no to Laine. One trick pony 

There goes the Florida game unless we pull off a miracle. No Demko, Horvat, or Miller against Florida. Halak and Garland should be back for St. Louis? Maybe Horvat?

Miller and Demko are not in protocol yet 

Speeding.  

That last part sounds a bit too true. Let’s go with that reasoning .

Either that, or they got more bike lanes too make.

I know some folks at one of the weigh scales the CVSE guys.

You probably would not want to hear how my safety violations and how unsafe a lot of trucks are.

Log books are the minor infractions.

We'll have to wait at least another season, he's got another year left on that big ol' 10.5M contract 

Lol You know what the worst thing a GM can do is say &^@# it!

Sign to the minimum?

Get better soon!  

Get well soon, we're rooting for you 

Get well soon.  Unfortunately it’s not confirmed if omicron is less severe.  

@Chip Kelly And Green's method of coaching was so good at conserving energy, right?

Are you even hearing yourself? There is a difference between showing restraint because it's only four games, but it's another to criticize the current coaching staff because you think it's unsustainable. What standard are you using to gauge this sustainability?

With the EXACT same roster, Green's team looked tired and stale. Boudreau's team looks energetic and dangerous. I'm not sure why you are having trouble figuring out which coach is superior.

@Dazzle Don't know what you are getting at here? Never criticized the staff or Boudreau.

I am critical of the lack of talent to work with in the d core left by Benning. That has been exacerbated with Hamonic being in and out of the lineup all season and now piles on with OEL missing the last few games.

Let's just calm down and enjoy the ride. This team is far away from being a contender. 

This season is an evaluation season.

Positive to see in the early days they are on the right track to becoming a fun and enjoyable hockey team to watch again.

After all this is the entertainment business after all.

But if this was true about our defense depth being weak, we'd get blown out, no? Kinda funny how you criticize the depth, even though we are keeping ourselves afloat while missing two top D. @Chip Kelly

F-Bombs! F-Bombs galore!

"Gentlemen, forget everything that AHL coach taught you"

I am Lrrr of the planet Omicron Persei 8!

@6of1_halfdozenofother Fair enough...Xi is a leader somewhere

And BC has its first Omicron case 

Should have just started a thread LOL

Who's gonna give us a LIST of laggard CDC'ers who kick-start gossipy Stat updates?!?!

Normally, I wouldn't be a fan of hiring Mike Babock since he's been known to verbally and emotionally abuse players but in Petey and Brock's case, it just might be what the good doctor ordered.  

Well deserved, they're great fans. 

Eff ‘em.  O hope their ugly city gets buried in snow soon.  What in the hell is wrong with some of OUR fans?  Learn to HATE all others!  Hate ... hate ... hate. That’s the key to fan happiness!   (Or is it Booze?)

The Utica fanbase was fantastic to our boys while our farm was based there, they deserve to have a good team. The Comet's organization wasn't the side that decided to move the team to Abbotsford, the Canucks were. 

I wish Burkie was available, he's not tho.

Gillis 2.0? weirder things have happened here. 

We don't need weird. 

We need competent. 

Jeff Gorton.

He was pretty good when he was the GM of the Rangers.

That sounds cool most of the ones I've seen haven't been that impressive.

I guess it's different in different places. I grew up in the Fraser Valley and I probably see a few rainbows every year. Saw one yesterday as well. 

Didn't the Stones write a decent lil' ditty about them?

Oh God no.  As much as I actually like him (and loved him storming the Flames dressing room), I don't think it would work.  The blocked shot injury pile up alone is enough for  me to worry.

Torts didn't work hard enough while he was here, but he does at least have some rapport with Shaw.  Maybe until the end of the year with the idea of turning the reigns over to Shaw once he can get some qualified assistants?

I go Claude Julien all the way.   

I would have gone Gerard Gallant last year but the Canucks chose not to act.  

Where did this happen? @Odd.

Please offer to be a witness, if you got a good look at the situation. The reckless driver's probably gonna make all kinds of excuses to get away from responsibility, and ICBC will just say, let's do 50/50.

Oh trust me, she was taken into rcmp custody. Me and a couple of others are key witnesses and we’ve told as much as we could to the authorities. She’s most likely facing vehicular manslaughter or whatever equivalent in the Canadian terms. Was offered counselling though I refused.

ugh. I see so much crappy driving now, I'm on the sea to sky a lot and every single time there's some person like this risking lives. Just yesterday a guy in a 5 ton was tailgating a person in the right lane at about 120 km/hr, if anything would have happened those people would have been crushed.
