  1. What happens when doesnt report to the AHL then? Then he would be suspended and the cap hit is gone?
  2. The important thing to note about all these vaccines. J and J included is that some weeks after getting them, your chance of being hospitalized or killed by COVID is essentially 0. The 62% is referring to the fact that you have a reduced chance at getting COVID, which is great, but you won't die from it, or get really sick. With Astrazeneca now available, that means that the restrictions will be lifted sooner and less people will die / get really sick. I would gladly take J and J or Astrazeneca if offered to me and would be very happy if offered to my family and friends too.
  3. The reason Canada is only at 1% is because we don't have enough vaccines here. If you look at countries across the EU, you will also see slow vaccination rates. Very few countries will be able to replicate when Israel is doing, Canada will be like many other western nations in vaccinating and seeing great improvements in the Spring/Summer due to other vaccinations coming online, increased vaccination importations, and warmer weather. Stop comparing and look to the future! We are on our way out of this.
  4. Does anyone have the 3 on 3 video from yesterday? Thanks from Germany!
  5. Does anyone have a streaming link to the game?? Please PM me! Greetings from Germany! (Cheering for canada)
  6. Anyone have a streaming site for someone abroad? my usual ones arent working. Thanks
  7. Why are you so angry? It's ok man. We are going to get through this pandemic together! No need to be angry. Stuff happens in life!
  8. Though the case number rose higher today, Its important to note that the rate of infection actually decreased. All the social distancing is helping and must continue (that means everyone doing their part and more so now). A super dynamic process. Cases will rise here in BC, the hope is that it doesn't rise too much.
  9. Makes sense to do points %. Then everyone is on a better playing field. More so than pure points right now imo.
  10. Doesn't it make sense to keep Eriksson and not trade him away? We won't really be contending for the next two years and when that contract ends (Along with a couple other unfavorable ones) the Canucks can actually start considering contending. Why throw away quality prospects for years where we won't be contending anyhow? Might as well at getting rid of contracts that are more movable and can lower the cap so others can be signed. That said, I'm not fully aware of the cap situation. But just my two cents.
  11. Pod with an assist so far today?
  12. Me too. Try to sign tofoli. Guy can play. And then get that defense that we desperately need. Especially for playoff hockey
  13. That top heavy forward lineup is a one way street to becoming the Toronto maple leafs of the West. No proper defense imo. Need to invest more money there.
  14. I don't near enough to jump on the fire green train. However, I do know defensive issues (from the defense and forwards at times) has been a plague ALL YEAR LONG. Markstrom could cover up all the mistakes made previously. Now that he's gone. Look what is happening. Those defensive lapses that have been happening since game 1 are very evident. In countless games that we actually won this year, defense was still suspect.
  15. The question now is when will you post next.. Will you keep that perfect 100000? and for how long?
  16. These are the type of moves that JB is probably targeting. And really the moves that are going to help us out long term. D to me is a glaring need. - That last sentence is meant only in a hockey sense.
  17. Thought I heard rumours of Severson in NJ. Anyone know what hes like?
  18. We want Dumba! Need defense if anything. Tanev and Edler won't be here forever. Then who plays defense?
  19. Agree with the notion that any defensemen coming in should be able to actually play defense really well. Barrie isn't that guy. Especially because he may be a rental, and he will then even demand a high paid contract. We need to add solid defensemen in, now and in the future to insulate Hughes. Tanev and Edler (Our best defensive d-men) are not long for Vancouver. Good d-men needs to be a top priority. Maybe we have those guys already? Maybe we need to add? And that may come from trading someone like Boeser. We Have our two top centres, We have Miller as our #1 Winger. We can't have 3 other top 6 wingers that are paid top dollar like boeser makes. I dont think that will work for the cap. We need to start bringing in overachievers (Like pittsburgh) and recycling players like that. And the timing in my mind is perfect. We have Podkolzin and hoglander. Thats 3 years each with cheap contracts and money can be allocated to others places that are in GREAT need now and in the long term: Defense.
  20. Yea I dont buy that It would be Juolevi. That would be a ridiculous price to pay for many rentals, let alone Simmonds.
  21. So was it confirmed that he had a concussion or not? Was it something else?
  22. I dislike when people make the poor goaltending or defense argument. Wayne Gretzky and EVERYBODY ELSE had the same poor goaltending and bad defense to score on. You know what? If it was so easy, why didn't everybody score at the same pace as Gretzky? They didn't because WG was so much further ahead of everybody at the time.
  23. Totally That type of juggling is the key to long term success I think. Recycling players so you can draft or acquire young almost ready to go prospects. That's how you avoid cap he'll Imo.
  24. I remember Boeser being a driver of play before Pete came along. I wonder if he can regain that form. That would really make the Canucks quite dangerous. Maybe thats what Green is hoping for?
  25. A question... Do you think someone like him or Try are actively learning English with tutors/teachers/etc? Obviously, thats a huge advantage and a need short and long term for success in the NHL/a canadian market/with his future teammates. Thanks for any responses!
