  1. https://abbotsford.canucks.com/news/canucks-sign-loewen-to-two-year-ahl-contract
  2. This is fantastic. Absolutely right choice and as others have mentioned so nice to see it done decisively before training camp. Not letting all the speculation linger, just down to business as soon as camp opens.
  3. For everyone who says Tram hates Vancouver and his time here, I present Exhibit A. The guy is fairly active on social media and to this day his profile pic is still him in a Canucks jersey, not Avtomobilist, where he’s been for 6 years. I mean if he hates it here soooo much, that’s pretty weird, lol. edit: ok fairly active may be a stretch, but still, he posts now and then, yet has never bothered to change to his current team
  4. It was mostly tongue in cheek. Watching the games Lucic played against the Canucks last year though, I didn’t notice Lucic at all. Like…in a bad way… not like in; “I didn’t notice our rookie D thrown into the fire on the second pairing” type of not noticed
  5. Nope don’t follow the AHL, but that’s how effective Lucic is these days
  6. I was just going to say the same thing. Lucic 10 years ago was a deterrent, Lucic now, not so much. There’s probably loads of big speedy AHLers that could be signed who would be more effective enforcers than current Lucic
  7. I get that, but that table is omitting swaths of data. I mean add Chiarelli’s Soiler years and he drops down that table a few spots, add JR’s Pittsburgh years he goes up, etc. Just a really weird chart. I guess looking at it again, it’s rookie GMs with their first teams? Anyway, doesn’t matter, the table just threw me for a loop
  8. I guess if you Completely ignore Rutherford’s time in Pittsburgh, like the original table does. Looks a little different when you include him making the playoffs 5 out of 6 years with the Pens, oh and a couple of Stanley Cups. So I’m not sure what that table is supposed to illustrate? GMs success with one organization?
  9. One of my favourite draft moments ever, still cracks me up.
  10. I feel like people who don’t think Bure was the best ever to lace them up for the Canucks didn’t get to watch him. It’s not even comparable. I think Petey is amazing a close second, but every time Bure got the puck everyone was out of their seats and it just seemed like he’d do something amazing every shift. Petey has a bit of the same vibe, and like I said, second best ever in my books, but just not quite the same electric energy. Can’t even describe it. edit: haha and just saw HorvatToBaertschi’s comment. I’d say Pavel was both, most electric and most talented.
  11. Ahhh, thanks. Was thinking players/coaches. That would make sense
  12. Islanders fans have given up on him, saying he’s too weak, always outmuscled and easily taken off the puck. Wonder if the org has given up on him though? Would love to try and get him and let him develop a bit here under Gonchar
