That said I get what your saying - but they were almost impossible to find a suitable 3rd player for their lineup. Revolving door and then one year of Carter (why the heck didn’t we keep him anyways?) and eventually Burrows - no Ferland but a premier agitator nonetheless (ask P Sullivan the guy hates him so much it’s hilarious). Yep Ferland would’ve been nice to have - no way Marchand would still have his teeth ... the Prust trade was worth it just to see his nards get the lumber. Benning definitely has taken notice - of his superstar player shriveling up after too much attention and abuse - Ferland knows he’s not going to keep his job for long on their wing if he doesn’t make it very difficult for opposing players to take advantage. By the recent pics it looks like EP has hit the gym and doesn’t want to put up with it either. Ten goals his first ten games 1.3 PPG two months in...playing with NG. Wow just wow. NG got all of 4 points once he was demoted (20ish games) and was a PPG at that point. Ferland better be ready to punch the crap out of anyone who messes with him or fans (including me) will be seriously disappointed. The reason Carter left was the Canucks wanted a 1 year deal and he wanted more term. So he went to Columbus for the term and sucked balls cause they had no Sedins to play with.

Recently NHL network radio ( Last Week), the Power Play they were doing power rankings and put us in the bottom 10 .Boomer when questioned about his ranking of the Canucks the next day stated that he basically had no use for the Canucks, Vancouver and their Fans . And believed the Canucks were poorly managed and had little or no direction. As far as he concerned Hockey stopped at Alberta border. Now thats eastern media bias ! Not shure on how to get the Podcast for the show maybe one of the listener's has a copy. Tweet him at Boomer Gordon (@ThePointSXM) lol what a turd burglar , even the Vegas golden knights said we are a team to watch out for this year , craig button said we are a team on the rise . Ottawa and Minnesota lol those teams have no direction and poorly managed , boomer is a good name for him boom there goes all the food boom every time he sits down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferland better be ready to punch the crap out of anyone who messes with him or fans (including me) will be seriously disappointed. Well it'll happen and boy that man can hit hard, saw one of his fights where guy he was fighting was hunched over a bit and Fer went for a head shot but just before it connected the guy lifted his head but Fer's follow through hit the guy square in the chest HARD.. really hard and you could tell it hurt the guy, i should YouTube search it and post the link but I haven't seen a punch that hard since a K.O. by Jovocop Anyway just Ferland's rep alone will scare off most guys going after Petey and no way would Ferland back down from anyone else who thought they would get away with it. that's what he's here for and he knows it.. So even if Ferland got injured, we could put out Myers and Benn.. either or.. Myers can kinda fight but relies on his reach but Benn can throw em fairly good and he can be nasty! JT average fighter, maybe a shade better but he's not afraid to drop em either and add to that Train, if he comes back and I think he will.. safe to say our butter soft team is gone for the most part.. Finally!!!!!!!!! The only thing I'd have tried to do was over pay if necessary for Ferland a few years back and or Buffy..

I just hope Ferland picks his spots and situations. This team needs to adopt a "team toughness" attitude - pack mentality no more Mr Nice guy. There is enough size and toughness on this team especially when Roussel is back. You don't have to win em all but you gotta stand up for each other. Teams will take notice. But when the situation dictates I hope Ferland does his best Gino impression. Oh baby that place went nuts.

rekker Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I listen to Boomers show a lot at work on NHL Network. I like the guy. He's always disliked the Canucks though and it has shown when he voices his opinions. He is the typical Eastern media type that has not fully researched the facts on the Canucks. I've grown used to the fact that when he talks Canucks it's usually biased. Man would I love to see the Nucks hoist the cup in the next five years throw it in his face. The media is worse than ever.
