.. sigh.. oh well

do you have a list of savvy competent gm's that are unemployed and looking to work in Vancouver?

I can't speak for the team, but I've only just looked at the schedule, and it's depressing the hell outta me.. lots of 3 - in - 4's, 3 in a row against the same team, playing only 6 teams, never leaving the country.. not to mention all the covid protocol.. I wonder if the boys aren't all that excited?? although I suppose that's the same for every team.. no excuses!!

agreed.. we need someone cheap who isn't part of the future and isn't a total liability..

might be the straw that breaks the back of timrafan..

at least you have rum..

Baer seems to be a great guy, always liked his attitude.. his track record, however, doesn't scream 'fine regular season player'.. career high 35 points and multiple injuries including concussion issues.. it might be in his best interest to retire after this contract.. Maybe he'd suit the taxi best this year, maybe that's what you were implying? and as you pointed out - where would he slot in? but in the long run anyway, I think the team has moved past him

late to the discussion here.. has it been established who is offended? legit first nations complaints or simply virtue signaling from white sjw's? reason I ask - I know a handful of first nation people, all of which roll their eyes at this kind of stuff

suck it Binnington

I only saw one angle but couldn't see a penalty.. was this a matt Cooke special?

lol.. the Seattle Chazholes.. what would the logo be.........

Maybe.. but what's the point without any fans? players wouldn't really like it, no money for owners from tickets sales.. lame-o.. either way, sounds like if Bill Gates gets his way, only vaccinated fans will have access to any professional sports events in the future.. crazy..

Fraser was a stone cold beast.. yikes

happy Gilmore was filmed in van so that makes sense.. no clue on the other shows

Just a quick question... JB seems pretty pleased with the Michaelis signing, but I'm curious who the other target is.. I assumed he was referring to Tryamkin, but he can't really choose another team - except in the KHL I suppose.. is there someone else? “We had a short list this year; there was, like, two guys we went after really hard, him being one of them. So we’re excited that we got him signed. The other player we should hear in the next couple of days whether he’s going to choose us or another team.” https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/canucks-hoping-win-lottery-michaelis-lockwood-signings/

gotta protect their White Gold.. sheesh..

from a news outlet : A fundraiser for hourly employees at the Calgary's Scotiabank Saddledome has raised more than $39,000 after the venue owner told hourly staff they won't be paid for shifts lost during the COVID-19 pandemic. Raymond Lau, who started the fundraiser, is criticizing Calgary Sports and Entertainment for not paying employees when other sports organizations are doing so. Flames players Milan Lucic, Sam Bennett and Zac Rinaldo, along with the wives of players TJ Brodie and Mark Giordano, have contributed to the Calgary fundraiser so far.

for sure.. even Buffalo & Florida are bucking up.. not sure about AZ

FA sent out a tweet that they would do something

actually last I checked, MTL & OTT hadn't decided

it seems like the Flames & the Jets are the only teams not paying..

little bit jelly over here.. I'm cleaning the garage

balls man.. why are people so inconsiderate? it's just common decency at the best of times, let alone during a global pandemic

so it turns out. Fanta was a really good signing.. too bad Benn wasn't on the same deal - a one year league minimum show me deal. I'm guessing they were both signed as placeholders until big Tram, OJ etc were stepping in. still an upgrade on last season though I wonder if there's any weight to the Gud comment about lack of team defensive structure.. not that he faired too well after Van, but it's not a comment you hear everyday from ex players. and we see evidence all the time of defensive weakness. perhaps Benn would be better if NB was replaced?
