  1. You're saying Juolevi isn't?
  2. I mean, you hope for more, but at the same time, having him become a player in the Hansen-mold isn't the worst thing in the world.
  3. Seems like you're pretty thrilled whenever Virtanen struggles. Personally, I don't think he was a great pick and I don't think he'll turn out to be anything more than a middle 6 player when all is said and done. That being said, I want so much to be wrong, and I'm always happy whenever Jake looks like he's finally starting to get it. I get no happiness from seeing him struggle. My sense of self satisfaction just isn't that important to me. To each their own though.
  4. That moment when you realize Rathbone has a better PPG average than Makar.
  5. It's interesting to me that Flames fans seem to be pretty classy when it comes to the Pettersson hype, while Oiler and Leaf fans seem to be the one raging. Methinks it's bothering them that, much like Calgary, we didn't have to win the suckage lottery to land our franchise players.

      But @debluvscanucks I'm a Stamps fan :(

       

      Legit - my boss is a die-hard Flamer and he is still very respectful and excited for the Canucks to have a player of that calibre. Even an Avs fan that I'm friends with was quite impressed by Elias after the game.

      Oh, I didn't make that clear...the Stamps fan was the last straw for me...he was my friend and when he got ousted, I went too.   :)  Now...RIDER FANS??  That's a whole other ballgame  (stealth, don't ban me).  A Rider fan/mod banned me.  She was prickly.

      Catfight?

       

       

       

      :P

  6. Don't feel bad. I said he'd struggle out of the gate
  7. Reporter: "....You realize that's pretty special?" EP: *shrugs*
  8. Brock had easily his best game of the season tonight, Him and EP were absolutely magical together,
  9. This kid has the tools to be the best player in franchise history. To think that he still isn't fully grown and has been playing with less-than-productive linemates for much of the season. That bank pass shoot-in was the stuff of legend.
  10. Pettersson so good he made the forum crash,

  11. OK, this is amazing...

      I can't for the life of me figure out what Canuck that is supposed to be as Freddy Krueger.

    3. Baer.

      Baer.

      Baertschi but it doesn't look like him at all

  12. Halloween is the only day a year where I can text a girl and ask what she's wearing without scaring her.

  13. Semantics. You said he wasn't at Kane or Datsyuk's level, which would be "elite". I disagree, seeing as his entire game and all of the success he's had thus far has come from his ability to stickhandle in the smallest of spaces.
  14. If you don't think he has elite hands, I fear you may be watching hockey wrong.
  15. Just a reminder that Bo Horvat was a -30 in the 2015-16 season. That is all.
  16. Honestly, Stecher might be the only Dman on the current roster that I can actually see still being on the team in 5 years time.
  17. Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his power level?

      IT'S OVER 9000!!!!!!!!1

  18. Horvat was -30 in his second season with the Canucks. Drew Doughty was a -17 in his first season with the Kings. Erik Karlsson has been a - more than he has been a + in the NHL. Also noteworthy that most of the Comets are a minus. It's much more of a team issue than it is a Juolevi issue.
  19. That could backfire. What if we trade for him, he doesn't pan out, and we end up moving on? That might piss Elias off. Just sayin'.
  20. Hmmm. You raise an interesting point.
