  1. A nickname? Before the AK has even fired a shot? I hope he doesn't fire blanks or he'll be called a DUD!
  2. I agree those players are our foundation moving on. But I think it's foolish not to include Miller, the heart and soul of the team this season. Keep him for next season too when we will be capable of making noise in the playoffs. We are not rebuilding, we're retooling. Our mostly young talent will be even better. We just need to upgrade our defense. Trading Brock will help do that. Plus Rathbone will be ready for prime time. This team's record under Boudreau is a playoff team. Imagine if we had him for the whole season? Factor in losing Captain Bo (our best faceoff man), Pearson (which makes 2/3 of our 2nd line gone), Brock and Hoglander (top 6 regulars) to injuries for long stretches during our final push for playoffs. These injuries cannot be discounted as a reason, not excuse, for missing the playoffs. Take away any team's captain/top scorer for a dozen games and there will be an impact costing more than a few wins. The Canucks will be a stronger team than people expect next season. I'm banking on it. And by the way, you just wasted two waists! Lol.
  3. Wow, looking at Hughes pick his spot like that on his goal I'm wondering... why wasn't he picked for the shootout vs Ottawa? Sorry it still stings to think of the selections. This game is not over yet. This team doesn't quit.
  4. Team faceoff 51% so far. Five goals. Bo Who-vat? Just kidding of course. Gotta love the way the whole team has stepped up without their captain. They are in playoff mode!
  5. The suspenders are killing me. Getting sweaty palms waiting for puck drop. But when it does.... it's clobbering time!
  6. I think we'll miss his faceoff % even more. Hope someone can pick up the slack. Make that a bottle of cialis. He's been deflated for most of the season.
  7. They say obviously but proceed to spell it out for ya! (Cuz, duhhh...maybe it wasn't so obvious to us!)
  8. Depends on what pick they get. It's supposed to be a strong draft. Might be good to hang on to the pick. Would especially love a shot at Shane Wright.
