flat land fish

He would add size and power down the middle and would fit their power play because he doesn’t need the puck much but can obviously finish. If Bo is traded out we can make pretty much any deal work by retaining some salary.

Alright Bedard go full Lindros we can all support you!

Need the leafs to lose 3 of the next 4 and a desperate trade could happen.

I’m not sure what to say about OEL but that the first 2-3 years of the LE signing didn’t work still baffles me. The twins and Loui had great success internationally and he was coming off a career season in Boston. The final years of that were destined to stink but the front end should have been better.

If Klimovich becomes a middle six winger would that not be a big win for a second rounder. Most of the players you have listed are high first rounders pegged to be first line players.

Easier for edler to accept a reduced role on another team than with the Canucks

Damn I think there was more hits in the last beer league game I played in that is one. 16 hits in an NHL game?

I wasn’t a fan of how long he and horvat stayed out there while tired in the last 3 minutes. Despite a much needed win details like that are why the teams struggled.

Sometimes in these situations you need to start playing good hockey before the wins follow. The power play has been good but need pk and 5 on 5 play to come around immediately.

Bedard won’t be an outright bust as his shot is too good. From watching him live I think the the driving play piece may be a work in progress for him. Hopefully adds a few inches of height.

The challenge is how invested is he for the long haul like not to stretch into hyperbole but he’s ones step from not buying green bananas anymore. Hopefully that translates to a position of acting with urgency to fix the roster holes but you would hope wisdom would have noted those this summer before the rough waters the team has fought through thus far.

Lots of promise from Silovs suspect he’ll get some nhl games this year at some point

Interesting piece. Substantial value in top 10 draft picks then it becomes a crapshoot. The value of those 2nd to 7th rounders is a little bit tricky it’s like the dice roll exercise and saying you want to roll a 3. Getting two opportunities to roll the 3 improves your chances of hitting but your odds reset each time and you still miss 5 out of 6 times. Envy leagues like the nfl where the players come in almost fully developed and even your depth rounds are not big stretches or guesses.

Bo’s turned into a pretty nice goal scorer but I would be curious if he’d score as much in another situation. On teams that like to setup the big point shot his bumper role wouldn’t be as relevant. I mean look at boeser’s drop in production after losing his umbrella spot to Miller.

If we are trading Horvat there will be more steps to be taken in terms of selling veterans for futures. Right now the Canucks are like a car with a great engine but no brakes and questionable steering. Might need to downgrade the engine and improve the weak areas.

It was an attempt at jest for how hypocritical the world is on judging poor character. I find it ridiculous at the massive number of athletes, celebrities and politicians that get a hall pass on weak character and the place everyone draws a line in the sand on Miller who by all accounts is fairly assessed deplorable human being. My question which I was posing to the broader forum is why aren’t we tougher than on the many other bad actors out there especially those that are in positions of power and influence. The culture of accountability those on this forum are trying to hold up at the expense of a teenager is laughable hypocrisy the same culture rules should apply to all not selectively. I’m done with this topic and will get back to talking Hockey.

I’m not I had a legit change of heart and think we should hammer all of low character with the same hammer

Lol on point 2 and I sure hope not

After reading the exchanges here it’s obvious Miller is never going change. To be sure no one is impacted by him again including those without internet access the only logical step would be to brand him with “B14” B so anyone who runs across him will know he’s a bully and 14 for the age he was when committing his hate crimes. Probably best to complete the marking on his forehead so it can’t be hidden. We could then apply the same methodology across the world when similar acts are committed. No need to stop with the bully’s though lots of low character individuals out there and it would be a shame for them to screw over someone else. We could start with young couples who choose elective abortions Sam and Susie could get matching BK19 marks to commemorate the occasion. Young Heather who had a fentanyl addiction and stole from her grand parents to support the habit could identify as DA17. Let’s not forget our hockey Canada standouts who will maintain their solidarity with matching GR19 or GR20 marks depending on their vintage at the time of their crime. These visible outward scars will match the scars their victims.

Yikes no love for Kane but that’s some harsh Karma

I would be shocked if he plays another nhl game

As long as we score 5 or 6 doesn’t matter who’s in goal

Nice to get a dub, need to get the positive vibes rolling!

We’re going for the score 8 goals a game plan and win 8-7 most nights. if Myers plays a steady stay at home game that pairing could work.

Stillman has had a couple tough outings probably watching one from the press box wouldn’t hurt
