  1. *does a Cross Fit workout*

  2. You know what this forum needs?  Another Benning/Hamhuis thread!

  3. Won't be mad if we don't make moves today.

     

    Will be pissed that we have to listen to how awesome Toronto's moves the last month were though for the next 2 months

    1. Spotted Zebra

      Spotted Zebra

      Because they were very good moves regardless of what Vancouver does or doesn't do...

      not arguing that.  Lou and Shanny have done great.  But having to listen to Dregs and the TSN crew crow over it is going to be nauseating

  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.

      Warhippy

      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. Just thinking back to all the brothers this team has drafted or traded for not named Sedin

     

    Historically...hasn't worked out for us.  Hope this one is different.

      We definitely got the better Bure. Though Valeri was no slouch.

      Does Cal O'Reilly count?

  6. My favorite thing now will be when I wear my Shinkaruk Canucks jersey and cheer him on because I like him as a player should he make the league

     

    That I will be accused of being a Flames fan.

      Would you like this sword so you can fall on it?

      Hippy, you ain't alone. I love Shinkaruk too. He'll still be a favourite player of mine even in Calgary.

    3. smithers joe

      smithers joe

      i feel the same way about vey...

  7. This trade HAS to be a joke.  Someone confirm or deny this fast.  Nucks page via various social media reporting Granlund for Shinkurak

     

    Wtf!!

    1. Green Goblin

      I hope I'm just having a nightmare and this trade did not just happen. Wake me up!

  8. So, the internal meetings were due to start or wrap up yesterday.  We beat the Avs last night to snap a 4 game losing streak

     

    Will there finally be a trade or will Toronto hog the entire market.

  9. 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

     

    Hahahaha

      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. 

    3. Warhippy

      Warhippy

      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

      thejazz97

      Levant's an idiot.

  10. 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

  11. Everyone stoked.  Top 5 pick coming...Benning drafts a Pavel Brendl

      @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!

      Wait, housing more affordable?

    3. Warhippy

      Warhippy

      According to the throne speech yup, it IS more affordable and that they ARE looking in to the real estate issues on the coast and that they trust the BCREA to investigate themselves.

       

      That they believe people can trust the BCREA as much as they can trust their own government omg...wow

      Until they are held accountable, they won't be.

  13. 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?

    1. thejazz97
    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

  14. That feeling you get when you learn a new editing technique...and then you step away from the RAW files they sent you and try doing it on your own images

  15. Wild looking for Offensive help.  Dumba/Brodin being named.

     

    Queue the proposals!

      I'd say Vrbata and a 5th for Brodin and Vrbata and a 2nd for Dumba.  No more though for either

    3. MedicineHatCanuck

      MedicineHatCanuck

      I think Dumba  was only for RNH. We would have to add a lot to get Dumba or Brodin

      RNH injured last nite out for awhile

  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. Trade Hansen!

     

    OK seriously hear me out, his value is at an all time high right now.  People LOVE this guy, but we've seen the twins make 1st line supporters out of Klatt, Carter, Cowan, Burrows and now Hansen.

     

    Shouldn't we cash in just once on one of these guys while their value is high instead of them offering them a bigger contract?

      Warhippy

      So was Cowan, So was Klatt, So was Burrows.  We've never cashed in on the ability the Sedins have of making 3rd/4th line players more valuable.  if Hansen can net us a 1st this year why don't we take it

    3. Gstank29

      Gstank29

      I would argue Hansen is better than the first two. Burrows has really fallen off a cliff.

    4. Mr.DirtyDangles

      Mr.DirtyDangles

      He needs to do a cycle of HGH then we can trade him ;P

  18. It's really weird seeing so many Drouin posts and status updates because my last name is Drouin.

     

    I thought it was a unique name out west here, now I can't get away from it :(

      At least your namesake can play hockey. 

      Of all the Scotts in this world...he's the only one in the NHL. 

    3. Warhippy

      Warhippy

      Not true, loads of Scotts in the NHL first and last name scotts over the years.  Except John Scott NHL ALL Star Captain is the only one that matters

      to be fair, when I said "trade Drouin for a bag of chips" I was talking about you, not the player

  20. Nothing says it's world juniors time more than the annual undervaluing proclamation of bust with our prospect and the over valuation and salivating of every other teams' prospects based on 1 or 2 whole games.

      Warhippy

      I just find it laughable that every year this site labels every single prospect of ours a bust yet lauds every other prospect as some sort of next coming of Wayne Howe or Gordie Gretzky

    3. King Heffy

      King Heffy

      It's definitely an indicator of whether or not a guy can step up in big games.  Toews was a standout for us in the WJHC, while Thornton played like complete trash.

    4. Brad Marchand

      Brad Marchand

      Our prospects suck, just trade them all for better ones amirite?

  21. 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

  22. Not sure if I am reading this right, but Eichel and Matthews going to the world juniors for the US?

     

    If so could be damn fun to watch

    1. Gstank29

      Gstank29

      Eichel isn't, Matthews is

      Just watched the video, picked that up.  But the way they worded this seriously made it sound as though he was going which had me scratching my head

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

     

    CDC 2015 Trade with Florida please.
