      Yea true agreed. Eventually dalpe will move up after learning the system

    3. Nicklas Bo Hunter

      Nicklas Bo Hunter

      And yea the third line is pretty bad

    4. nux4lyfe

      nux4lyfe

      4th line is terrible!

  2. Why are people putting dalpe on the fourth line in their line up proposals? He is going to be third line center. He is better than Schroeder yet people wanted schroeder on the 2nd line. I just don't get it. Are people really that mad at dalpe because him coming meant shinkaruk got sent down?

      The thing is he's not really better than Schroeder; it's more of a lateral move.

      He's also not THAT soft.

      i've never seen dalpe play so i can't comment...all though i'm glad that shinkarik was sent down...let him get lots of playing time where he will dominate...he'll make the squad soon enough...

  3. our team automatically sucks now that shinkaruk is gone. lol i love the logic on here

      Yep, because playing a super skilled but smaller forward at 18 usually keeps them injury free. See: RNH.

      ^ jensen is a bust ?? dude just stop

    3. Go Faulk Yourself

      Go Faulk Yourself

      Myself I never said Jensen was a bust. Kassian has already played a few years in the NHL unlike Jensen, but Kassian has been given minimal chances to succeed (Other than first-line duty for the first 10-15 games last season where he showed promise).

      If Kassian does not perform under Torts though you can bet he'll be done. Who takes that spot after? Who knows, could be Jensen.

    4. Mr.DirtyDangles

      Mr.DirtyDangles

      ^ totally agree dude

  5. I wonder what it would take to trade for jake allen. might be a solid pick up just in case luongo decides he wants out at the end of the year. or maybe even jack cambell

  6. 2 months in 17 pounds lost. not too bad

  7. gabriel bourque is looking like he will be a great player for the preds.

  8. I feel since we are going into a new era that we should new jersey's/ logo maybe go back to retro

      Oh Lord please no. Leave the jerseys alone! Swap out 3rd jerseys, have a retro night, sure. Orange skate jersey for Bure night please! But leave the main jersey alone!!

    3. Jägermeister

      Why would we usher in a "new era" by going retro?

      No I'm so fricken sick of this team changing crap. We've had like 11 different jerseys in our history. It's the same fricken story with the intro song and the goal song. It's like we have such a short attention span that we can't stick with anything for more than a couple years. It's fricken annoying.

  9. wonder who is in tonight for us. We will see if Jensen or schroeder are hurt bad or not.

  10. to be fair guys right after scott tried to fight Kessel... Kessel went after a smaller guy than himself... so did half of the toronto team. No big deal its hockey

    1. LeanBeef

      LeanBeef

      Flynn is actually listed as taller than Kessel. Kessel does have 20 pounds on him... but that's nothing compared to Scott's 70 pounds and 7 inches on Kessel

    2. Drouin

      Drouin

      He went after Kessel actually.

  11. its like all of cdc took viagra.everyone has a hard on for shinkaruk. I like the guy but seriously guys there is a reason 23 other teams passed up on him. 30 goals, mabey. the next patrick kane? lol no.

      LeanBeef

      The same thing can be said about Jensen; there's a reason why 28 other teams passed on him

    3. Drive-By Body Pierce

      Drive-By Body Pierce

      Shinkaruk, with no place else to go, tried the same offensive move three times in the last game, to no avail. Jensen couldn't create anything himself, or finish on a crash and bang drive to the net. Neither will be sticking around for the regular season. If any prospect will make it, it will be Gaunce because of his solid play on both sides of the puck. And doing what is necessary in his role, despite that not being his regular offensive role.

    4. Mr.DirtyDangles

      Mr.DirtyDangles

      It is a no brainer theses kids will play in utica for at least a season or 2, but Gaunce is the only one with a real shot at making the big club. he has been playing his bag off :D

  12. honestly really surprised that no team has given franson an offer sheet. last I hear he only wanted 3 mill a year... sounds fair for a player like him

      They should just scrap the whole RFA thing and go the MLB route of team control for 6 years, with years 4,5 and 6 being arbitration eligible.

      If I am Gillis I am seriously considering it especially with Cain in the organization somewhere(?)

    4. Jammert

      Jammert

      Cain was a camp invite, Vancouver Gaints winger.

  13. any up dates on lines for tomorrow? probably see kesler back

  14. please just cut horvat and jensen now... just let them move on. torts obviously doesn't think they are ready with the players they have been played with.

    2. Mr.DirtyDangles

      Mr.DirtyDangles

      They are being evaluated for their potential, and if you think any of these kids will be playing on the big club then you are sadly mistaken. We have what is called an AHL team that needs to be filled with great prospects and solid players. What did you expect was going to happen with 17-19 year old's ? Your evaluation of Shinkaruk is pathetic stop acting like you know more than a seasoned NHL coach and his staff. WTF is wrong you ?

    3. Nicklas Bo Hunter

      Nicklas Bo Hunter

      So my evaluation of him having good offense but poor defense is pathetic? Its what most pro scouts say about him too... he is a one way player for now.

    4. Bruce Boudreau

      Bruce Boudreau

      The Canucks don't have anybody on their roster who is a pure sniper like Shinkaruk and can dangle guys 1-on-1 including the Sedins.

      Last time I checked Pat Kane isn't the best player in the d-zone. But he sure as hell makes up for it offensively.

      I hear what you are saying but Shinkaruk doesn't have to be great defensively but merely good enough to not be a liability.

  15. cut: stuart, horvat, jensen.

  16. sedins and luongo into tonight. what do people think the lines will be?

  17. sedin sedin kassian. shinkaruk horvat jensen. higgins richardson hansen. sestito gaunce weise

      ^sitting out a game just like the sedins did last night.

    4. Betweenthepipes-R

      Betweenthepipes-R

      Remember, most likely they'll field bare minimum veterans/near. I could see

      Sedin - Sedin - Kassian

      Shinkaruk - Horvat - Jensen

      Higgins - Gaunce - Hansen

      Mallet - Lain - Hamill

      I'm not sure. We'll have to see.

  18. kind of dissapointed that none of the preseason games are being streamed online. really wana see hte buff game.

      My bad RR, didn't check back on this. It was channel 350 or 351. You need an HD box for it though. I had to go to the main room to watch it. On my regular box it's just a black screen with sound.

  19. jensen is so gonna make the team :)

      Didn't Jensen also play with the Sedins in one of his games up last season? If I remember right, he didn't look amazing there either.

      Although, one game isn't a very big sample size.

    3. Tom Sestito

      Tom Sestito

      Jensen would benefit from a year in the AHL. I think he needs to learn how to fight harder on the boards, and get used to the tighter space. When he has space to skate, it's beautiful.

    4. Nicklas Bo Hunter

      Nicklas Bo Hunter

      He played about 3 quarters of a game with the sedins. You could tell that av told him to play a no risk game. It really limits a player when he can't make mistakes with out getting demoted.

  20. Did Jensen play today? no one mentioned anything about him..

      Nicklas Bo Hunter

      ok ty. was wondering why shinkaruk was with Kes and Burrows when Jensen with them made so much more sense XD

  21. so whats happening for training camp? scrimmages mainly?

    1. goalie13

      goalie13

      Lots of drills for different scenarios too.

    2. Nicklas Bo Hunter

      Nicklas Bo Hunter

      I heard kassian is on a line with the twins. Do you know who jensen is playing too?

  22. NHL 14 has Zack Kassian and cody hodgson at the same rating. 82 for both. so i guess even trade ;)

    1. Keslerific

      Keslerific

      Where did you find the ratings?

    2. Nicklas Bo Hunter
    3. Mangoes

      Mangoes

      Kassian is clearly better and u can find the ratings by buying the game which is NHL 14

  23. listning to slash all day. Sounds good to me.
