Hey Anthony - I know this is from a few pages back in the thread but I don't think this is the worst stretch of hockey this fan base has endured. It's the second worst. The run from 1976 to 1990 was brutal with 1983 thru 1988 being the absolute bottom of the barrel. Never above .500, made the playoffs solely becuase of only 5 teams in the devision, no top tier prospects, no players above 100 points, no players with 50 goals, no top draft picks or prospects, no farm team, no world class players, and constant turnover in the head office. The team was the laughingstock of the league. The Benning era and the (hopeful) recovery from that era has been terrible but no where near as bad as the 80's.

I would contribute to the beer fund if I was in the Lower Mainland. If, however, the successful videographer is located in the greater Glen Morris/St. George/Paris area, I will buy the six pack. Call me cranky and old school but I thought the Rome hit and the Dumba hit were just fine. I watched Scott Stevens annihilate dudes regularly - hits that would today be considered punishable by permanent suspension and a protest down at city hall (maybe even a banner...)

(Rumour) 4 teams interested in J.T. Miller
Dynamic Innovator replied to combover's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I think you WANT his body to break down because I don’t see another way of moving on from his contract. I believe the team needs OEL to play terribly over the next two seasons, help push them down in the standings, and get a better draft position. The wear and tear on his body causes his knees to give out in the 24/25 season, he goes on LTIR or early retirement and the Canucks then use his 7M cap hit for other players that fit with the team’s progress! JT Miller is a great player but his age doesn’t fit where the Canucks are. If a trade for some good young players/good drafts picks could be made it helps the team be much better 3 or 4 years from now. The current lineup is extremely average, very poorly constructed and needs much, much more quality from top to bottom. -
Counterpoint: the 5D chess stealth tank strategy says play the wheels off OEL. Results: - OEL plays 28-30 minutes a night - it facilitates dismal results - his knees explode - he goes for early retirement - the Canucks draft 1st overall

The Canucks can’t send him down. He has a NMC.

Where are all the people screaming for a rebuild? If you want to build a great team you kind of have to stink for 2 or 3 years, draft well and get lucky with a few good trades. I think Demko is a fantastic goaltender and he's a rare commodity... but... he is WAY too good to allow a rebuild/retool/reboot/retread/restart/revamp/rewhatever. As long as Demko plays well for the Canucks it prevents the neccesary bottoming out. Trading both Horvat and Demko would be a 5D chess, elite level stealth tank.

Awesome topic!!! Here's my list: 1. Brashear - not particularly likeable but was the best fighter in a Canucks uniform 2. Rypien - best pure fighting skills but not a heavyweight 3. Fraser - didn't start them often but almost always finished them, superb puncher 4. Odjick - best enforcer in Canucks history, hands down, not debatable 5. Kurtenbach - not on the list but was an unbelievable fighter Honourable mentions go to: Glenn Cochrane - big, mean and nasty...but let off the gas a bit with the Canucks Craig Coxe - Coxe vs Probert x2 is enough said Tim Hunter - sneaky and entertaining Scott Walker - YouTube Walker vs. Keane. Had many superb battles Darren Langdon - terrific fighter who sadly played only ~45 games for the Canucks
