  1. We have lacked that for awhile. We have mostly surrounded ourselves with offensive mided D who lack the ability to shut down the opposition. I liked Bieksa but he wasn't that big. Myers is big but he doesn't do very much. Aside from the Duncan Keith hit of course.
  2. I agree, those two are the final pieces to the puzzle for them, which doesn't bode well for us Canuck fans.
  3. The fact remains the same is that this team has had very few Stars and they have managed to play great hockey. Look at their goalie, a 4th round pick to acquire him? A 2 Million dollar goalie in the finals going up against a 10 Million dollar goalie. Yeah you are probably right about Vegas fans but I just like the hockey that we are seeing. A good coach, with a good system, with every player buying into it. I sure hope one day the Canucks can play like this.
  4. He lost game number three 8-1! Like I said , after going up 2-0, he crapped the bed. It went downhill from there.
  5. We went up 2-0 and then he crapped the bed. None of our star players were star players in that series.
  6. They live and die by these 2. If they don't perform, they are going to have a tough time winning the Cup.
  7. These guys are growing on me. No prima donna, whiners , they play a full 60 minutes, they finish their checks and they play like a team from the 1st line to the 4th. You guys can have your Bob's and McDavid's, I like these plummers who come to play hockey every night and most importantly, when it counts,
  8. Any proof yet? Still waiting...................................
  9. I am no expert and that is why I am leaving it up to them.
  10. Management will find the right comparables and pay him accordingly, I am confident of that.
  11. Again I ask, you got proof? Apparently players go to where there is less taxes and they take the highest bid for their services no matter what? I am sure there are a few, but lets be real here, their mostly all millionares who are going to makes more money then they are probably going to be able to spend in their life time. You and me? Yes its(taxes) definitely something we look at when we are looking for a job but even with that, we have other thngs that are important to us as well, like where our families are and where they want to be. If we like where we are or do we want to move on, etc. etc. A lot of things to consider then just taxes IMHO.
  12. I actually don't think Petey is that kind of person anyway and he will probably sign for a fair contract so this whole argument is moot. ......but if the small chance that he wants to wait it out like Bo did, we will get compensation that will make losing him more tolerable. Win/Win.
  13. That makes total sense doesn't it. Talk about jumping to conclusions.
  14. Ovi only makes 12.5 for one season, he also makes 5 million for another season, overall 9.5. Nice try. Do you have any direct information about your claim or is it just plain speculation on your part? I have heard a few CDCers talk like its fact but they have no solid proof. Anyway, either Petey takes a fair deal or he can move along like his buddy Bo, plain and simple. Like I said before , its a win,win for us because if he moves on, we are going to get more then fair compensation for him anyway. I think we are past the point of allowing the players to run this team , hallelujah!
