  1. I like Highmore's game. He may not stick due to his production, but his positioning is very good. Calm in the D Zone and very aware defensively Team guy for sure
  2. 250K is a drop in the bucket. Still glad NYR made their statement against a ridiculous 5K fine, and I'm sure they are too.
  3. Quinn needs to dial it back in the D zone and just make safe plays for awhile. forget about
  4. Is this just coincidence but every line Hogs is on plays well. Bo or Miller just checking.
  5. Utica was an awesome AHL affiliate for us but time to cut out the 3000 mile flights and border issues
  6. I don't think we can call this year a normal year for the Canucks and really not making excuses. Mix worse sched in NHL, worst Covid breakout, and losing your #1 centre/player for the majority of the season to start 2018- 26th 2019- 23rd 2020- 17th so they are getting better....
  7. People can blame the GM / coach and I question some of their decisions, but the bottom line is we are at a disadvantage with a 10M gap in our cap until 2022-23 season. Yes you can blame JB/Linden for the Eriksson signing and a few for the Luongo recapture. We just don't have the depth to compete until this 10M is off the books, so now is the time to get a couple good picks hopefully, develop our youth and basically do what Ottawa is doing. Don't give prospects or picks away to dump Eriksson, Roussel, and even Beagle. Ride it out, and get excited for our prospects, and see how our young stars improve their game. We have talent that just needs some more time. 2022-23 will be a new start for who ever is on charge which will see us in the top half of the league to start, and hopefully be a top 5 team by 23-24. This rebuild started 3 years ago after the Sedin era, so it isn't out of the realm to expect to wait a bit longer.
  8. Miller had a decent game. Started pretty good, effort was there at the start but the stable is pretty empty right now
  9. Agreed , Highmore has heart and plays a decent D game. Still needs to on the board if he hopes to keep an NHL job
  10. I think that was Pacer, if memory serves. space age for the time
  11. Hughes seems like he's still suffering from Covid after affects or something else. just looks tired all of the time. Need the old Huggy back!
  12. yeah, we were back a ways on the floor and first thought it was part of his act rolling out of a box onto the floor. Of course back then there was no law and order, so he was hurt when the crowd rushed to get at him as well as the fall. Saw him twice since then and both shows ( one in Kamloops) were awesome.
  13. Have to go with Alice Cooper in Van, played 1 song, fell off stage after 40oz of something , broke his ribs, and tried to choke his way threw "only women bleed" song and called it a night. almost triggered a riot.
  14. nice, always kick myself for not taking in a Rush performance.
  15. Yes, 2-3 years I can see him as the 'right 'balance for Hughes.
  16. Good to know, maybe they picked us up sneaking a mickey of rum in lol
