Hogs & Podz

Who?

This is really happening....

Yup....

Nice to hear an article focused on Podz, because he's obviously my favorite player. But gotta say, it shouldn't take having a child to motivate you to get to another level. Regardless, if that helps Podz great... It seemed to help Bo during the bubble playoffs as well but... The young man just needs to get out of his own way and kick some ass! He is a bull, through and through, it's all about confidence for him. I don't believe we've even seen what he could be in the slightest yet. I expect a game changer. A guy that can almost single handedly put the team in his back and will a win by using that blistering snap shot or physically imposing his will and just bowling his way to the net and score. Hopefully this is the year... And if so, his effectiveness will correlate with the team making some noise, should they make the playoffs.

Everything is overblown in this market. JT would be a perfect captain in a market that is looking for more media attention. This market and especially media are so 'karen' like to begin with... Hughes is the best choice of the three.

I totally agree with your assessment of Alvin. He's gotten very articulate... Less hesitant more confidence in his ability to convey thoughts on process and direction. Until this presser... I was feeling pretty skeptical about the management and the team as a whole. I'm not saying I'm ready to crown this team as 2024 Stanley Cup champs but maybe... As you alluded to, maybe this organization is you know... Showing signs of being a well run organized team.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Petey reminds me of a slightly more reserved Naslund... If that's possible lol! It was to much on Nassy. It appeared like he wasn't having as much fun playing when he became Captain... Especially when the team started losing and not reaching expectations. Miller is to overtly emotional to be a captain... Similar personality to Kesler... That's why I thought Henrik was the best choice last time the management chose a captain. Hughes was the best choice for this emotionally scared market... But time will tell if we keep losing... It might wear on him as well. Ultimately, I'm just glad it wasn't the other two... It would have been a gong show with Miller at the mike every game and it would have stressed poor Petey out to the point he'd want out sooner than later. This way, both those guys can just focus on their season and speak up when they feel the need to do so. Best choice!!! Captain Huggy!

I think this year we'll see him round his game out. He has tons of potential. Kinda what Virtanen was supposed to be but without the blazing speed. He's not slow but he ain't fast either. Ultimately, he has all the physical tools to be a good middle six NHL player, just not sure if he has the level of hockey sense needed to stay in the show.... He's really young so, might just be a maturity thing. This year should tell us what we really have in Klim.

+1 All good... Canucks do much better when they play the underdog.

Newer management... Juries still out on how well they develop their younger players but looks like a good start for sure.

This to me looks like a great signing from habs management. A clean piece of work at what could be a steal of a contract by season end.

Sad but true... I consciously choose not to click on suckass and lice. Sadness me that their view seem to be increasing. However that seems to correlate with them increasing the volume of content they puke out. Overall I just ignore... If I am curious, I'll turn volume on without clicking on their site, so that my view doesn't register as a viewing. Regardless... Even if I watch a segment from time to time... Consistently, I'm disappointed with their show. They just suck... So ungenuine. Contempt is palatable with them.

Hold your horses!!! Maybe a 4th... Maybe. Otherwise it would be a bad move. See how camp goes see who goes on ltir. Go from there.
