[Signing] Hurricanes sign Dmitry Orlov
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Carolina is a pretty good place to have success as well I guess. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Ian Cole
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I’m not expecting any more big deals from us now. Not that these were big in any way but it feels like we have adressed what was needed and 3C will come later here via trade. Blueger was depth in my books, not permanent for the 3rd line. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Carson Soucy
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Very nice indeed! Wasn’t expecting us to sign him before the hype but it grew on me quite quickly so I’m happy and deal isn’t 6x6 so that always helps -
[Signing] Canucks sign Teddy Blueger
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Well its happening now, eh? -
[Signing] Sharks sign Kyle Burroughs
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Nice guy all the way. But we’ll manage (I hope) -
[Signing] Ryan O'Reilly to Nashville
Spoosh replied to theo5789's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Would have been too expensive for us. -
There he goes. Loved him here but I’m excited about a new and hopefully improved d setup here.

[Signing] Panthers sign Oliver Ekman-Larsson
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Good for him. Hope he does well there. -
In the real world, owners are owners, they aquire proper people to run the company. In this case Linden or Benning is brought in to run the company. They don’t need to sell a trade idea to the owner, they are in charge of making the right call and get paid to do that. A CEO, President, GM etc does not run to the owner with this stuff. An OEL buyout might be something they might discuss, but in general the owner just wants his money or money and success in this case. If he didn’t trust his GM or President, he’d do the job himself.

[Report] Blue Jackets fire head coach Brad Larsen
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in General Hockey Discussion
Spot opening up for Jukka Jalonen to make the jump from Europe to an NHL coaching job. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Cole McWard
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
The topic should be edited to [Trade] Benning, Linden, Tortorella, Desjardins and Green for Rutherford, Allvin, Tocchet and a 2nd in 2017 (55th overall). all topics should be named that, unless it is about trading Miller or signing Tryamkin. -
[Signing] Devils sign Luke Hughes
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Starting out as expected, 2 games, one goal, one assist and a ppg player. Not bad -
[Signing] Canucks sign Akito Hirose
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Hirose has looked very ready and has shown a lot of upside in his game so far. -
If he isn’t 100%, then no point playing him now. Heal up and play when it matters.

[PGT] Ottawa Senators at Vancouver Canucks | Mar. 11, 2023
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Great game to watch. Just the kinda hockey you wan’t to see. Would ve nice to be in the hunt still but I’ll take it. -
[Signing] Canucks re-sign Guillaume Brisebois
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Great! I hope he can stay and become a regular. I had very much given up on him already. But he has looked solid here the last few games. -
[PGT] Toronto Maple Leafs at Vancouver Canucks | Mar. 04, 2023
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Great to see Demko back and doing well. And as many have noted already, Myers was pretty good again. Go figure. I really like how our d played in general. Didn’t look bad at all when you look at who was playing and who we were playing against. Really nice. -
[Rumour] Canucks interested in Sam Malinski
Spoosh replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Definitely not an expert here on prospects in general, but with covid and everything it brought with it, I’m sure some guys didn’t progress ’normally’ and I’m sure scouts didn’t get to see them as much as before. -
I might be your age at some point, typing here and still no cup. Rebuild or not. People can boycott if they like but to me that is totally pointless. If this is so bad why not follow frisbeegolf on TV? I welcome the challenge and being the underdog going into the season every year. It’s been like that a lot lately. Of course it hurts when we don’t get there (cup) but 31 teams dont get there - every single year. I’d love for us to win a cup, but I wont do it as a part-time fan or hater of the team. (not saying you are, just in general) Exciting times ahead. I feel good about the direction we are headed. Chin up everyone!

Spooshy’s recap We got something for both Lazar and Stillman. I think that is a win for sure. They had a chance here, didn’t work out and we still got some value. Good job all around. Bo and the return was ok, even including Hronek and all the parts around that. Losing the first sucks but still worth it in my mind. Beauvillier has been better than expected so far. Hope he can keep that up but not sure he can. Kravtsov is a questionmark but the potential is there for him to fit in nicely. Other smaller parts moving gives us a chance to add something else. All in all I’m (again) clearly in the minority here, but I’m pretty happy with how everything has unfolded. You always hope for a big splash and a big name coming onboard but good pieces have been added. If we buy out OEL and move Myers after his signing bonus, I feel like we have done a good job of moving on from our issues and can focus on our (possibly bright) future. Thoughts CDC?

For one, he needs to find his game and stay at the level he can sustain. You can’t get 100% out of everyone every game. As for coaching, we have been juggling lines for how many years now? He looks like he needs a spot and linemates he can play with for a longer period of time. Most players do and we have been trying out stuff for years and dont seem to settle down and work with the same lines. Three, four coaches now and we do the same thing. I’m sure they know better but I think we should plan, execute and give it some time. It’s not like we are close and in a hurry right now. Find some chemistry and work with it. Brock is a good player to have.
