  1. A canucks loss and hawks win tonight puts us within 3 points of third last, that would be closest I've seen us be to the bottom since the start of the season

      I've jinxed them many times too :P

  2. If canucks lose and sharks win, we drop two spots from 7th to 5th last 

  3. Would Carlsson or Fantilli be able to contribute in the NHL year one? I could see canucks finishing as low as 3 if the tank goes well.

      I'd love a top five pick, top three would obviously be better. I'd rather not rush whoever we draft though, if they look like they can step in and run right off the back so be it but I don't want us to keep a top pick in the bigs just because they're a top pick. I don't want to be sold on the excitement of a rookie, I want them to develop properly.

      Fantilli is NHL ready (also one of the oldest in the draft). Carlsson is about 1-2 years away. 

    4. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Fantilli is on pace to have better numbers than Jack Eichel in his draft year.  Also, he is already 18 and is almost one year older than Bedard.  He will be 19 by the time next season starts.  He will be in the NHL on day one, same as Bedard.  I think they will be the only two to play in the NHL next season.  Carlsson will stay in the SHL for one more year...

  4. it’s actually pretty crazy that even after these past  three games they haven’t fired the coach lol nothings going to change as long as that bozo green is around

      I don't mind Benning, in fact Iiked his offseason moves, but I'm beginning to lean towards his moving on. Surely another GM could draft well too. 

       

      If Green doesn't go and we miss I could see that being it. This is his last fire the coach card, he needs to use it.

      Torts complain his teams are stale whenever his results go downhill, he said something similar before leaving CBJ lol. 

       

      Anyone with a top 10 pick can draft well, nonetheless multiple top 10 picks - it is not rocket science. Being able to find gems in the lower rounds. Like Fox in round 3, Aho in round 2, Point in round 3 now that's a different story.

      McTavish and Boudreau are available, among many candidates. There was no reason to extend Green.

  5. i’m at the point where i genuinely hope the canucks get absolutely demolished for the next few games leaving the owner no choice but to fire green. small price to pay for salvation

      @Brad Marchand Gillis was fired immediately after the fans chanted for his removal.

      My skepticism probably comes from the lack of buzz I've heard in media circles about Green being on the hot seat, maybe it picks up in the next week or so.

       

      I also personally sense that 'it's a new season, the team needs more time to gel' is the excuse management is using at the moment. That will eventually run out, though. I guess it's possible they become more cohesive with more practice but they need to hurry up. I also still see far too many hallmarks of previous seasons (general passiveness, lack of movement on special teams, slow starts, inability to prevent zone entries etc.).

    4. Bruce Boudreau

      Benning has to go too. But the Vancouver job doesn't look that appealing due to high expectations and a meddling omnipresent owner, jeez sounds like the same situation the Philadelphia Eagles find themselves in. Both are struggling to be an attractive destination to the top candidates.

  6. Been seeing a lot of hate on Olli, whats all that about lol?

      he has been letting down cdc fans expectations

      that he would salvage our d issues

      and too many only see tkachuk as the preferred option

       

      now that quinn is stepping in to save our d problems

      the heat will be reduced on luc

      @Tre Mac  My first thought wasn't GOT but Jokinen  (like, wtf, he was never a Canuck).:P

  7. Rofl looking back at my old warning points Deb was really going to permaban me if I got another one oof. 

  8. Watching markstrom after almost a decade of great goaltending is so sad, someone get this guy outta here 

    1. King Heffy

      I'm stoked for a Demko-DiPietro tandem though, especially with the defensive prospects we have.  Wouldn't mind seeing Demko paired with a diffewrent vet next year.

      Yeah man but it might take a while for that to be set though, for now we have to suffer through it lol

  9. So when the skate jerseys come out next year will they be widely available or just sold during those games in which they will be worn in game? REally hoping to be able to get one 

    1. goalie13

      I would bet they will be widely available.

      You were just a young lad back then, @smithers joe!

  12. Does anyone know if they still sell those retro jerseys they brought back for a few games the last couple years? Or will they release an adidas version of them?? Saw a video of them and it reminded me I really want one lol

     

    1. Heated Blue

      Heated Blue

      They don't have any at the moment. My wife tried to get me one. Apparently the team store only ever had 30 of them. They didn't know if they will be getting any adidas ones.

  13. So... we're good again! Lmao

      Run a Malwarebytes scan and then download CCleaner and run that

       

      As archaic as it sounds (and is) try using Internet Explorer..

  15. Electronics question: If one gets an exelctronic wet while the battery is out and there is no electricity going through it it, would the electronic still operate? Given that I keep any electricity away from it until it is 100% dry

      ya maybe just buy another controller not sure why u would intentionally put it in water  it will be toast 

  16. So I applied and got accepted into SFU but my grades have dropped a bit. My marks all dropped a bit from my initial marks I put in but I lost and extra 5% from one of my mid term marks(English and it will likely go down too after provincial marks are added in) where they accepted me. Am I in danger of my offer getting revoked?

      I calculated it a while back and even though all my marks dropped, my avg. was 80% so thanks for that dude I was stressing

  17. Im trying to fill out this adress sheet and it says "street name" yet my adress doesnt have a street name. eg. 1234st 56 ave. What do I do?

    1. goalie13

      goalie13

      In that example, the street name is 56 Ave.

    2. Roger Neilsons Towel

      Roger Neilsons Towel

      The street name in your example would be "56th Avenue"....

      Oooo thanks man

  18. Is it clear yet that Nylander>Virtanen. Can't believe how much some of y'all overrated Jake because hes Canadian and underrated Nylander because he was "soft". I know its early but the dude would've be leading our team in points right now.

      Jam126

      ^^^ Looks like you have no idea what he's doing down there. He's playing great hockey, he's really unlucky though. He has a 4.5 Sh%. Also take a look at other guys the same age as jake, not that much of a difference if you look at their stats. Only real difference is goals.

  19. Sedins got 4 points each but are a negative 2 and 3 plus minus...

    1. stonecoldstevebernier

      stonecoldstevebernier

      Baertschi is not a fit with them. They need Eriksson to wake up for this to work long term... I'd say put Hansen back there but he's been so good with Sutter.

  20. Does anyone know how to download music straight to an iphone 

  21. Do you guys know any good websites for tv shows that has a built in player so you don't have to go to 10 different pages before you can watch a 20 minute episode?
