  1. My hope is that Manny and Burrows are out learning the ropes and both come back to Vancouver with a little experience when we’re ready to contend.
  2. Well our 1C is a winger and our 3C has one assist so we don't have too much C clout either
  3. Yeah when the officiating seems bad every night, the ice looks bad every night, and the bounces are bad every night, maybe the team is just not very good yet.
  4. I didn’t know Jake’s face could look so p’ed off. More of that passion.
  5. OUTSHUT SHOT IT OUT OF OUTOUT SHOOT IT OUT TOOSH OUT SHUT SHOT Nope, I can't do it. It's gotta be Apricot.
  6. But to be honest, I would like to see colour jersey vs colour jersey as the default every night. I mean how sharp would it look to see Canucks in blue vs Montreal in red tonight. And it only takes a minute to do a contrast/color blindness test to ensure enough variance in tones between the two for broadcasting. If the jerseys are too close, then the away team has to wear their white.
  7. Yeah, that used to be my thinking as well. So I understand where you're coming from. But I came around to the other side. The dark jerseys are unique to every team since they embody more of the team's identity and should be the "default" team jersey. Not every team has a blue and green jersey. But every team has a white variant. And that's what the white jerseys are, variants. That's the jersey the away team should have to wear because the home team is wearing the jersey they want. I understand the blue vs white gets boring every night and it'd be nice to see other jersey colours coming through. But I don't want to prioritize making the other guys look good. We should look good and wear our own colours in our own house.
  8. I used to feel that too, but then I read an argument by someone saying that the dark/colour jerseys represent the team brand/identity more than the white jerseys. And that the home team should be representing their colours at home. Our colours, our home. The white jerseys are for visitors.
  9. Agreed. The pandemic made his overall tenure even shorter than it should've been. The pandemic made him difficult to re-sign. Bennng has made a lot of questionable moves but this one is absolutely a casualty of the pandemic.
  10. My guess is no one will care about this story tomorrow and we will forget the royal family exists until the next scandal that has no actual real world consequence
  11. DONNIE IS RETURNING Now, I'm no conspiracy theorist, but also check out what it says on Rob Fai's twitter bio. He claims to be a host of "Section120 Sports Radio" that is debuting March 2021. Drawing a line from one point to another, it seems as if a few TSN 1040 folks are starting up their own station that is set to launch any day now. Or maybe I need a tinfoil hat.
  12. I 100% agree that lack of confidence is what's holding him back from reaching his true potential.
  13. Jake has a good game every dozen or so games and then someone is bound to come up with a "I told you so" post. He's having a great game, no doubt, but let's see him string a few together before saying "I told you so". We've all seen him play well in spurts.
  14. 4th. NYR, TB, and then the Canucks last season. I'm just not sure who he's playing for this year.
  15. It was a misprint. It was meant to say the kids will be playing in a whining environment.
  16. You know Bieksa is a special individual when you can read a forum and hear him mentioned as a superstar broadcaster, a potential NHL coach, and a future team president and none of it sounds unreasonable.
  17. But it’s a fair criticism that we’re clearly multiple pieces away from being a competitor, yet we’re capped out. Contracts come off the books this offseason but the point still stands that this team is not good enough to be a capped out team right now.
