      I'm kind of concerned about the collective mental health over there after our win the other night.

      if the Canucks win this series they'll have to go into hiding

      Nah, they will just wallow in their hate and self loathing at HF boards. 

  3. Man todays home game with have been electric. First playoff game in 5 years white towels, streets have no names playing the siren.

      Watch Laf get drafted by the Soilers and refuse to report.

  5. Jake Virtanen is done cant even make the exhibition roster. Bust of a pick,  he is nothing going to become a impact player. Benning bros saying  it takes time, guess what his time is done. He is another Steve Bernier

      ya i read that squamfan but i guess greener just doesnt know how to win then because his team other than petey juolevi and hughes marky edler  gaude and brock  looked like straight up  like losers out there 

  6. The canucks should just give up on Jake. Again not ready for camp. Odd man out today

      I'm ok if we keep him. I just hope he matures, and finds another gear in the sudden death series.

      after a supposed "poor camp" in September (and the usual ledge sitters having their usual feak out) Jake continued his upward progression having a career year in a shortened season.

      ain’t he got no learnin. i take it, that if he owned the team, he’ld fire benning. maybe the owners should hire this spamfan to help them make their decisions. 

    4. CanuckleHorse

      CanuckleHorse

      Oh please we the real fans know the haters don’t like that Benning is  putting together a contender.

  9. The league just waived the cap recapture penalty if its over 5 million dollars. So if Weber retires early Nashville a American Sunbelt team wont get the cap recapture peanlty. 

    1. HerrDrFunk

      HerrDrFunk

      That's not what happened, at all. What they did was amend the cap recapture penalty so that teams don't have to eat more than the AAV of the contract per year but they do still have to have the recapture penalty on their books until the entire value of the contract has been used. 

       

      Essentially, it would lower the recapture penalty per year but teams will have to deal with it for a longer period of time. 

    2. Dazzle

      And once again, the Canucks don't benefit from NHL's retromeddling.

  10. Benning wanted Connor Bleackley and the scouts wanted David Pasternak. Took Mccann when when Bleackley was gone. Fire this clown before he destroys the drafting

      Milbury would have traded at least 2 of Horvat, Hughes, Petey, Boeser, or Edler for scraps, throwing in Podz and Hoglander as sweeteners.  Even the biggest Benning hater has to admit the team's in a better position than when he took over.  Even the biggest Milbury apologist has to admit he left that team in a worse position.

  11. For the first time in 4 years the canucks saved money on July first and Jim Benning was not trending worldwide

     

    Thank God

      In related news, the Canucks are undefeated in the past 3 1/2 months, and over the same span, the Leafs have not won a single game.

      smithers joe

      dhaliwal is a good source of info but he was a real jerk on radio 650. he was very trumpish in his ability to take criticism. he threatened to punch people out if they disagreed with his views. a good insider. 

  14. canucks trending world wide

      I don't mind it.  If you play for a team that has an intense rivalry with another team, I can see not wanting to play for that team later on.  For example, could you see Claude Lemieux in a Red Wings jersey?

      There's nothing really to hide tbh. Emails will just get filtered out by people paid to do it. You think Bill Gates doesn't have an email?

      fully expect him to sign, and he might even get some game action depending on how the rest of this year goes. With Tanman down I think making the playoffs is very hard to pull off, unless Rafferty comes in an kills it. 

  20. How much does it cost to install a gas incesrt fireplace?

    1. -AJ-

      -AJ-

      A few thousand I think. My dad had one installed years ago, and i think it was around $3,000 or so. 

    2. Tre Mac

      Tre Mac

      Incest fireplace?  You live in Alabama because I believe they're free there.  

    3. JM_

      JM_

      installation should be under 2k. The rest depends on how fancy you want it. 

  21. So Erikkson nixed a trade last year.

      Loui needs the money. In late 2016 he bought up five restaurant bars in Goteberg for just over $7 million Cdn. The restaurants were owned by a guy who was charged and convicted of two counts of rape of young women in his restaurants, so he lost his liquor licenses and had to sell. Annual revenues were a little over $11 million Cdn a year. But when Loui bought them, he still couldn’t get a liquor licence because the former owner’s head guy was still more or less running the operation. So revenues in the first year were just over $4 million Cdn. I don’t know how the operation has done since 2018, but Loui not only lost his scoring touch, he lost about $3 million in his first year as a restrauteur.

      @Curmudgeon -- Great find.

       

      Becoming a Restaurant owner is one of the worst businesses to get into statistically. I truly doubt Loui walks away from the rest of his contract. I do think the Canucks will trade Loui this summer, probably with a sweetener attached.

      @Quantum i'll have to be enough of a sweetener to give that NHL GM diabetes.:P

  22. Does anybody knoW what jj daigneault Crutches moment is?

    1. NewbieCanuckFan

      NewbieCanuckFan

      He arrived at the draft in crutches and we, the Canucks drafted him 10th overall.  Still, he ended up playing 899 NHL games more than Joulevi has at the moment.  Not a home run pick but had a respectable NHL career including a Cup ring with the Habs in the 90s.

    2. MJDDawg

      MJDDawg

      I remember watching that draft and him struggling to get up on the stage with those crutches. The metaphor was just so much a Canuck moment.

    3. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      Jim Taylor milked that(draft punch-line) in his Province articles for yrs.

       

      This, the same writer who fawned over Gretzky, authoring a book for the guy(early 90's)

  23. Canucks are two points away from missing the playoffs

    1. Alflives

      Alflives

      It’s not that scary.  We are currently 11 games above .500

      The second wild card team is 7 games above .500

      So we are still in a good position for making the playoffs

       

      Given that, I do not care for our coach's Systems or philosophy of passive (chase) play.  I think Green is too “nice”.

      you realize everyone around the Canucks has played 1-3 more games right?
