  1. Any relatively expensive burgers in the lower mainland that are actually worth the price?

  2. I honestly can't stand the "give me a puck, stick, whatever" signs at games. It's rude. It's become a thing but I really think we should be teaching our kids to appreciate the event without asking for items.

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Fully agree. I find it especially bad when adults make signs for their toddlers who will never remember the game when they’re older. Basically trying to get things through their young children.

    These jerseys as an alternate would be..

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Good except for the shoulder logo. Yellow on the stick in rink is not a good look.

  4. The Hockey Guy. A little pessimistic about this coming season. I think it's going to be interesting. 

     

    He did say Vancouver and Buffalo are cursed franchises. Lol.

      The Hockey Guy is always harder on the Canucks than other teams, which can be very frustrating as a fan of his channel, but honestly I think he was pretty spot on with the season preview. It’s hard to say how good we actually are. We overachieved in 2020, and underachieved last season. Our forwards are good, but I do have a lot of questions about our blue line.

  5. How many years total does Benning last as Canucks GM when it’s all said and done?

     

    He’s at 7 so far.

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      If the Canucks have a rough start or miss the playoffs this year, I think he’s gone.

  6. Benning has wanted PK Subban in the past and was blocked by Bergevin. If the Devils want to land Dougie Hamilton they will want to create cap space and lighten their books. Van needs a heavy proven top 4 d men who can play an abrasive shutdown game to partner Hughes. This is your chance Benning to finally land PK Subban...

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Noooooo. Our blue line is bad enough without Subban’s lacklustre defensive game.

  7. Really think there is some fire to these Reinhart To Van rumors JB said he want's to be aggressive this offseason Reinhart wants to return to the west coast and JB has tried to get him before so obviously likes him as a player Would love to see the RW depth of Boeser Reinhart Podkolzin  

     

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Honestly Reinhart is the exact type of player we need. Top 6 RW/C. I’m open to dealing the pick for a player like him.

  8. Can't wait to see who Benning buys out this off-season,

    Eriksson's saves $2 million
    Roussel's saves $1.26 million
    Beagle's (might not be worth) saves $800k
    Holtby saves $3.8 million(!!)
    Virtanen saves $2.5 million(!)

    That's nearly $9.5 million there

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Eriksson for sure has to be gone now that his contract isn’t buyout proof anymore. Virtanen’s likely gone, but that might be a termination. I’d buyout Holtby personally. Get a decent back up for cheap. Roussel it’d be just as cheap to bury him in the AHL. I don’t think Beagle/Ferland can be bought out with their injuries.

  9. who's gonna win tonight - MTL or Calgary? why?

  10. Would you take Gillis over Benning?

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Nope, solely on his drafting alone, let alone the goalie controversy.

  11. just bought a $30 authentic Horvat jersey from sportchek, if y'all want one with the VANCOUVER on the front

    1. HC20.0

      Thank you for this, I got a $30 Boeser one today!!

  12. If the rest of the NHL season is cancelled, how is draft order going to be determined? and wasn't this draft also postponed?. 

     

    So many questions...

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      I imagine they'd do something similar to the 05 draft and have a lottery involving all teams with different odds depending on if you're in a playoff position or not.

  13. Who’s one prospect you’re really disappointed he never panned out? For me it’s Hunter Shinkaruk. Dude had sweet hands and was overall really good when he was drafted. 

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Hunter Shinkaruk and Cole Cassels. I thought both of them were absolute steals in their draft. I legit thought Cassels would be an elite 3C for us, especially after he shut down McDavid in the playoffs.

  14. Per Dan Murphy: “Doesn’t sound like there will be a significant move coming from the Canucks. Perhaps a minor league deal (or two).”

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      We already got Toffolli, I’m okay with this.

  15. Are there any foods you disliked as a kid that you now enjoy as an adult?

     

    For me it's Brussels sprouts, spinach, and black licorice.

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Broccoli. Hated it with a passion, now it’s probably my favourite vegetable.

  16. Who is your favorite non superstar Canucks? I started watching hockey in 2012 and always like Chris Higgins.

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Willie Mitchell. Dude gave it his all every night, and is one of the better shut down D we've had.
      Burr will always hold a special place in my heart too.

  17. Bruh this Makar kid is a &^@#ing BEAST

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      I remember that Vancouver was pretty hyped on Makar and really wanted him. We got Pettersson though, so it worked out for us! But still, imagine a pairing of Hughes-Makar!

  18. Binnington is a legitmate threat for the Calder

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      He could also be Andrew Hammond 2.0.

  19. Hey guys. Just got back from vacation. What did i miss?

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      We signed Roussel and Beagle, and then twitter exploded

  20. POLL: worst gaffe in sports history: JR last night, Bill Buckner 1986 World Series, Patrik Stefan empty net miss (contextualized in a Finals situation)?

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Buckner, or Steve Smith. 

       

      Dishonourable Mention to Ben Bishop coming out of his crease in 2015. That gaffe turned the tide of the Finals.

  21. Dream Canucks 4th line in the next year or two?

     

    Carcone - MacEwen - Archibald

     

    Michael Carcone is a puck hound, MacEwen uses his size to dominate the middle of the ice, Archibald is used for his checking prowess.

     

    Feel like that would be one fun 4th line.

  22. Canucks are 6th in PP%. With this roster, this is pretty impressive. :D

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Our PP had an abysmal start to the year too. Imagine where it'd rank if our PP started this good.

  23. Rip, Kevin Weekes put Parsons and Forsberg ahead of Demko in his up and coming goalies list

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      Remember the days when Weekes was an up and coming goalie? :lol:

  24. What are everyone's thoughts on Jordan Weal? Is he worth signing or have you had enough of the NHL/AHL tweener projects? In fairness to him, he does have better numbers than any of the guys we've taken flyers on (albeit in a small sample size).

    1. HC20.0

      HC20.0

      He reminds me too much of Vey. Just can't carry his AHL success over. I'd pass.
