      @Wilbur Sounds to me like Shaw feed is going to have a lot of people complaining tonight.

      Daniel finally gets his 1000th and Shaw screws it up. That's one timeless moment we won't get back. Thanks Shaw.

      @48MPHSlapShot Sucks, hopefully they recoup some of the fans some how...

  2. TheHitman

    6 points to go for Daniel!

      I hope it times out for Vegas or St Louis next week.

      @Jimmy McGill Considering buying Vegas tickets in advance but going to see how this weekend goes for him first. Was there last year for Henrik's 1000 points and it was absolutely marvelous.

      yah we were too, by accident. We got offered free tix from our Canucks member agent for that game, and sat right behind the goal too. It was very cool. 

  3. TheHitman

    8 left for Daniel!

    9 points to go for Daniel! 

  5. TheHitman

    A team without Edler, Tanev, and Tryamkin would be really hard to watch next year.

      Yeah but with the new lottery system is rebuilding by tanking even a thing anymore? Canucks have gotten royally shafted by this new system.

    3. SabreFan1

      SabreFan1

      If you have a good GM with a good scouting department then rebuilding with a few top 5 picks is very doable.  You just won't end up with a quick shortcut like the Oilers did with McDavid and the Leafs will most likely end up getting with Matthews if he continues to improve.

    4. ItsMillerTime

      ItsMillerTime

      I think if you get a top 5 pick next year you will get a very good player. Having Dahlin would be nice though.

  6. TheHitman

    At least the #5 pick in this draft could realistically be better than the #1 or #2 picks. 

  7. TheHitman

    Best way to use Aeroplan miles?

      Depends on how many you have. But it's slim pickins in the Aeroplan catalogue so don't expect too much.

    Big Baller Brand doing big business today! BROCK BOTTOM!

    Bo Horvat is the Canucks Derek Jeter.

      No way. Erik Karlsson has been other worldly.

    Can you imagine a John Carlson/Olli Juolevi pairing?

      if we are gonna be in fantasyland anyway

      why not him and karlsson

      solid high talent pairing

    3. Blömqvist

      Blömqvist

      If we could negotiate a deal with Carlson beforehand and then trade for him right after...

       

      WSH: Tanev + Goldobin

      VAN: Carlson (signed at a 7x7 extension)

    Can't remember the last time so many fans wanted a player that's never played a playoff game in a 9 year NHL career...

      @Sikhguy23 The Winnipeg franchise is better off without him and Buffalo is going to be too. Not really a coincidence at this point. 

    3. goalie13

      The last time was probably Jay Bouwmeester, except he went 10 NHL seasons with no playoffs.

    4. TheHitman

      TheHitman

      @goalie13 Wouldn't exactly call him a playoff performer too, he's been largely unspectacular with the Blues IMO.

  13. TheHitman

    Can't wait for the Canucks to be competitive and have a hype crowd in Rogers Arena again one day.

    1. numb3r 16

  14. TheHitman

    Canucks need a guy like Tom Wilson...

    1. smithers joe

      smithers joe

      they drafted virtanen for his speed, grit and scoring. we just haven't seen enough of it yet. when we draft tougher guys, fans say we should have drafted the smaller, more skilled guy. when we draft the smaller more skilled guys, fans say we should have drafted the tougher guy. 

  15. TheHitman

    Could MDZ be getting traded at this years deadline? He's looked good so far and the contract isn't bad for a team like the Capitals who needs help on defence.

      Fateless

      If he keeps up the play/pace he's currently on, if there is a team in desperate need of a offensive D that can munch a lot of minutes, I wouldn't think a late 1st is out of the question. If his play drops off, a 2nd or 3rd.

    3. 48MPHSlapShot

      48MPHSlapShot

      Maybe, but with our shallow pool on D, it might not be a bad idea to hold onto him for another season. Vanek, on the other hand, is doing exactly what he needs to to fetch a decent return at the deadline, and we have a pretty decent surplus of young forwards in our pool that could fill in. Maybe Gaudette slots in towards the end point of this season.

    4. PunjabiCanucks

      PunjabiCanucks

      I say we try to trade Edler first, before Tanev or Del Zotto (unless we are offered some really good picks)

  16. TheHitman

    Couldn't they just have younger players room with the veterans? This Fortnite ban on the road is just plain stupid.

      I don't see what the issue is with the ban since it's the players, not mgmt or coaches, who initiated it and agreed to it.

    3. HerrDrFunk

      HerrDrFunk

      Yeah, it’d be thing if this no video games policy was an edict from someone like Lamoriello but the players are the ones buying into this.

    4. Brad Marchand

      Brad Marchand

      Some of the regular Fortniters on the team (Boeser, Pettersson, Stecher) have already commented that they're fine with the policy.

  17. TheHitman

    Demko, Goldobin, and Holm seem to be playing really well in Utica so far!

      Goldy should be up by the trade deadline when Vanek gets traded/waived.

      i think archi should be given a good long hard look before the the nucks are sitting at 10-1-1

    4. Quantum

      Quantum

      I've also thought that Jalen Chatfield has looked really good too despite not putting up any points. Won't be shocked to see Chatfield up with the Canucks some point this season.

  18. TheHitman

    Does Guentzel get suspended for the shoulder to Carlson's head just now? Very much the same hit as Wilsons but Carlson didn't even see Guentzel coming.

      oh i didnt watch the last few minutes since i switched to the jets game. thatll be a pretty huge hole o.o

    3. Time Lord

      Time Lord

      You're the only one who keeps bringing it up, so maybe other people don't see it as suspension worthy?

    4. Brad Marchand

      Brad Marchand

      Need a reverse angle of that hit because it's nearly impossible to tell how much head contact there was from that view.

  19. TheHitman

    Dream scenario: sign Carlson and Doughty, bring back Tryamkin, trade Gudbranson for Borgstrom...

      Tryamkin stated today he does wish to return back. I say in the future once Hutton, Tanev, or Edler leave he will return.

      @Tigs You don't think Florida would do it?

      Blegh, no Doughty. I'd take Hedman though.

    EP40 for captain... :ph34r:

      How about the Canucks wait until both of his testicles drop before they give him a leadership position. :rolleyes:

    Excited to see how Brisebois does in the next training camp!

      There will now be 50,000 people claiming to be in Rogers Arena and they saw EP40's first NHL goal. :lol:

      There's going to be some ups and downs this season. I'm just happy with that compete level. I just hope they can keep it going. 

  23. TheHitman

    Fleury has been world class so far in the playoffs. 

    1. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      Rutherford seems to have the Midas Touch, past coupla' seasons. I thought they should have dealt him..look like geniuses now.

    2. TheHitman

      Wonder what this series would be like had they dealt him tbh.

      Washington would probably be looking for the dagger right now.

    Give Gudbranson all the money in the world! gn Marchand

    1. Sikhguy23

      Definitely the type of player the Canucks need

    2. King Heffy

      Would have included a NTC if Marchand hadn't gotten up.

  25. TheHitman

    Gut feeling says we most likely get Filip Zadina in the 2018 draft. Would be overjoyed if it happened.

    1. JM_

      JM_

      we are not going to be bad enough or lucky enough for a top 3 pick. Arizona should be fined for how blatant their open tank is. 

       

      But getting this guy would be great. 

    2. TheHitman

      TheHitman

      @Jimmy McGill He's probably the last forward we need in terms of top six prospects IMO.
