  1. Agreed...the man has heart. Burr will rise again. He always does.
  2. That's just it, the cap space as I said is irrelevant. Who wants to sign in Vancouver right now? Booth was on the uptick. Was he worth the $4.5 mil? No. But it's not a given that cap space will be better used if they spend it on a FA. They will have to overpay for any FA to begin with, and probably give a long term. Does that fit with a team looking to get younger?
  3. But it's his last season of his contract anyway.
  4. Hmm Booth was improving finally. Why now? Prepare for tank mode. The Canucks aren't in a position to attract free agents. So the cap space means little. Maybe JB has started the process of chopping heads and going full rebuild. Hank and Dank don't want to be traded right now, as they feel they can win, but a couple more moves to gut this team and they might change their tune. It's a double edged sword right now. They either have to give up a lot of prospects and picks to get EK and try to compete, or go all in on a rebuild. I'm betting JB has decided a retool is too far too reach.
  5. If Canucks can trade Kes for Etem and 10th 24th overall then I see no need for any trades to move up or down. I'm flip flopping for NYlander here. If he's there at 6 you take him. I was onboard for Ritchie but there's an outside chance you snag him at 10, or else Virtanen. Or, maybe you can trade up from 10 to 8 which would be less expensive IMO. I am now convinced that Nylander has the potential to be the best in the draft. If he's off the board then MDC is ours anyway, maybe even Bennett if some crazy team bites on Ehlers. Six is actually a terrific spot to stay put at because this draft will be full of surprises. Even LD could fall.
  6. Can you post a video of Emilin administering a low bridge? I'd like to see if you even know what it means.
  7. Watching these playoffs, and past playoffs, it is clear to me that you need guys who can fight through the cluthing and grabbing. Because every year it gets worse earlier. Obviously you can point to Kane and JT and say that they are able to fight through it, but they are special players and I don't think any so called skilled players in this draft has their skill and compete level, and come next round it will be tougher against a big Pacific team. So despite some good arguments for NYlander and EHLers, I say Ritchie is the clear choice, you simply can't pass on that combination of size, quickness and shot, especially when you are rebuilding and will probably have a chance to snag some high end talent next draft.
  8. Yeah we all know tripping = poking the bear. If anything it shows how frustrated Chara is
  9. I'm sticking with Ritchie at 6. Toughness. Quickness. A killer array of shots. Play him on a different line than Kassian. That's 2 big, tough guys who can score. Two Lucic lights. The Canucks play in the Pacific. They need more redwoods.
  10. How come there were three first round game ones played tonight and penalties were almost even between 6 teams, with one team getting an extra 2 minutes? Follow up question. Were the Canucks that dirty against the Sharks last year?
  11. It's not about apologies...(I know you know that ) but this so called reporter is taking her editorial content straight off of CP....how can she call herself a journalist after that....??? From this day forward anytime anyone perpetuates a myth about the Canucks we should say thank you Kristen Odland.
  12. Hearing a lot of trash talk from Flames fans about the hit on Danny, Let me just say this, if those punks were spewing that shit in my presence they'd be picking up their chicklets. So tired of a Flames fans and their bullshit. They think whatever happens to the Canucks is karma for beating their sorry asses for 6 years. More than any fan base I hate flames fans. GO BACK TO THE FIRST PAGE OF THIS THREAD, I SAID I HOPE BOTH TEAMS ESCAPE INJURY FREE...WHY? Because I know that coach over there amd I know that team...I was worried for our players....
