  1. Can we please have hockey soon?  We're all getting feisty and angry with each other.  We need to just gel with teams of athletes shooting pucks at each other and hitting each other with sticks 

     

    Nothing brings people together like watching people pick their teeth up off the ice

      you get feisty and angry with everyone no matter what the subject is. 

  2. And with the 5th overall selection in the 2016 NHl Entry Draft the Vancouver Canucks are proud to select

      wouldn't be surprised

  4. A tiny part of me wants to go back and quote some people who claimed that picks and prospects would never get traded this year.

     

    Just like they claimed last year.  I'm tiny like that

      A GM would never come out and say "I'm not going to trade this particular type of asset", so I don't see why any fan would think otherwise.

       

      Besides, internet people aren't worth wasting time on.

      Well OG shooting the BC Winter Games takes precedence over a hockey forum.  And it beats listening to people crown him the next Naslund after 1 game.

       

      And Brad it's amusing to see people so highly opinionated with themselves make those claims every year then forget they made them when those trades happen

      a tiny part of you?....not many guys will admit to one of those...

  5. A veritable who's who of who the f*** are you being trotted out at Rexall Night.

     

    Moe Lamay?  Seriously?

     

    Only 80's Nux fans will get that ;)

  6. All the teams' needs leading to the TDL according to TSN

    http://www.tsn.ca/talent/mondaymustread-a-look-at-every-team-s-needs-wants-and-wishes-1.438334

    Hamhuis appears to be the hottest commodity on the market bar none.  Vrbata and Burrows would also garner a serious look judging by that

  7. Atlanta Thrashers/Winnipeg Jets.  Drafted top ten 8 of 12 years in Atlanta (1 year without a 1st round pick) and 4 of 7 years in Winnipeg in the top 10

     

    12 of 19 years with top 10 picks.  Two 1st overall.  Three 2nd overall.  And a 3rd overall pick or two as well.

     

    Vancouver fans would never ever allow that to happen.  Loving the Jets atmosphere right now

      Jimmy it's easier when you've a vezina caliber goalie, a Norris caliber defenseman and a perrenial selke caliber center in your line up no doubt.

    3. pluralsight

      Your argument rings hollow. Call us fans in Vancouver less passionate, I don't care. I'd rather be lots of things than have to live in Winnipeg.

    4. c00kies

      c00kies

      I live in Winnipeg and it's not that bad :P

       

      If I could afford to move to B.C. then I would, but I wouldn't move from Winnipeg to Alberta or Ontario.

       

      The Jets have an identity, while we are looking for ours. Once we have that, we'll start to win more games and become competitive again.

  8. Be interesting to see the anguish on the board when we don't get Hamonic because we can't outbid other teams and even more interesting to see people blame Benning or Linden for it

    1. King Heffy

      King Heffy

      Anywhere but Edmonton please.  I don't want to see that dump get an NHL team again.

  9. Bettman to league 10 minutes ago:

     

    Come on guys.  You're giving me nothing to work with at the draft tonight.  They're going to boo me from 1 to 31.  Save something for later im begging you

    Sony/Fox absolutely screwed over the Wolverine/X-Men franchise so bad it makes my head hurt.

     

    Multiple story lines, endless issues with continuity savaging no less than 3 MAJOR comic book icons in the process not to mention the rest of the supporting cast.

     

    While the movies themselves and the wolverine character were good as stand alones, when weighed against the success of the rest of the franchises in the marvel universe it is staggering to see how badly they screwed it all up.

     

    And don't even get me started on Fox's Fantastic 4 craptacular trio

      Sony also screwed Ghostbusters

  11. Cannot wait to see the sky is falling, fire everyone, trade all the player threads after this tire fire ends.

     

    Do we have an over/under on them?

  12. Cannot wait to wake up tomorrow and see who Benning has or hasn't signed and enjoy the inevitable

     

    • Should have gone after player X and Y
    • Overpaid by how much
    • too much term
    • size, grit truculence
    • GMJB out gm'd again

    The usual complaints for almost minor amounts of signing.  Just hoping we don't see any terms longer than 2 years or cap hits higher than $3.5 million.

      Dude, I feel like these types of things are exactly what YOU would say! ;) jkjk

    2. Wilbur

      Wilbur

      I agree, but the 2 years (to me) is way more important than the 3.5 million.  Don't get me wrong, it would be great if Del Zotto can be signed for 3.5 mil, but 4 wouldn't be a disaster... at 2 years or less.

  13. CDC 2011-2014 No more trades with Florida please god no more trades with Flrodia

     

    CDC 2015 Trade with Florida please.

     

    Love this place

  14. Curious, Shero in Jersey is apparently debating trading for scoring help to help with a playoff push.

     

    Apparently Gelinas "might" be in play.

     

    Not sure we've the pieces but for pick(s) we have a Vrbata and I am sure we can find something to add on if Gelinas is available.

     

    Thoughts?

    2. Mike Vanderhoek

      Mike Vanderhoek

      i'd like to know why Gelinas although having good size and a good skill set has fallen into the doghouse in Jersey, something isn't right. Otherwise he'd be an attractive option. Severson however would be a much better option.

       

    3. Warhippy

      Warhippy

      Severson would be to much of an ask, better to buy low before Gelinas puts it together again

  15. Do we have a breakdown of Bennings interview today???

    1. nux4lyfe

      nux4lyfe

      Meh, didn't miss much...Virts out week to week, Higgy & Tanev are game time decisions ..called around for a 'bandage' center-man to see what's around...not sure if Virts going to be available for the worlds..Markstrom should get more starts...

  16. every single time I refresh the page or check on the forum and it takes more than a second to load I get excited that we've done something

     

    Then it just turns out john scott gets traded and I get the sad

  17. Everyone over there all like "trade it all for RyJo" and I'm over here all like "Sign Kopitarrzzzzz"

     

    Only one of those scenarios is remotely realistic.  But meh

    1. Senpai

      Senpai

      shoulda just drafted him instead ;)

      Draft....draft....KOPITARZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!

      @Spoderman I wanted Ehlers too. Nylander wasn't as impressive statistically. But at the time, we had Kassian as our only power forward.

      Hindsight.

      It made a lot of sense to draft Virtanen. And he's only 19. He has the full package; skill + speed + grit + power. Also he is gradually getting better with his play with and without the puck. We've seen glimpses of what he can do. Just wait!

      Don't you put that evil on us

  19. Everyone wants a high pick until we get one, then they want to trade it for marginal return.

     

    How about just flip it for RyJo and a 2nd...because RyJo is from BC and everyone from BC wants to play in Vancouver

  20. First it was Heroin, then fentanyl then carfentanyl...now....Immodium AD?

      King Heffy: It's amazing how that doesn't seem to effect others on wanting a d-man who can't defend. 

       

    3. King Heffy

      King Heffy

      It's almost like they don't remember how bad Weber and Larsen were.  Any defenseman who can't play defense has zero business being in the NHL.  Look how bad the Leafs D is.

    4. Warhippy

      Warhippy

      It's almost like...playing on a bad team makes a defenseman look really bad.  Almost like, people on a western canadian hockey forum somehow magically watch Hanifin 82+ games a year to be able to say these things.  It's...almost like Hanifin would never be an improvement over what we have.

       

      Good thing we still have Edler eh heffy ;)

  22. Giggling that "The Rebel Media" has been barred from all political news conferences in Alberta because Levant admitted under oath he is not a journalist after advocating attacks against Notley and the leading NDP

      He'd fit right in with that bunch then wouldn't he? So many of those *hit disturbers in Alta, wanting to get back to the old Conservative Gov't, and their super handling of the Provinces coffers.

      He's not an Albertan...he's such a low life it isn't even funny.  Should google him and his exploits if you want to have your stomach turned

      Levant's an idiot.

  23. Greatest big game moments of the 90's on sportsnet right now.  So many amazing players so many awesome plays

  24. How has nobody asked what the value of Komarov is yet and then offered our first or McCaan for him?

      McCann is the new Golden Child. I think you'd more likely see Shink or Virtanen offered up by CDC lol

      So, that's why they have the trade deadline in Feb/Mar, so we don't see fake trade threads being posted.
