  1. Thanks. Hope Lind gets well soon.
  2. Lind not playing again. Is he injured? Hasn't played since October 20.
  3. What a slow developer Shink has turned out to be. All that offensive skill and skating ability in the highly competitive WHL with Medicine Hat and he can't even produce at the AHL level. I thought he was a steal at 24th overall. Had a great start in Utica before he was traded to Calgary.
  4. BoHo has become a Bruin killer. 4 goals, 2 assists and 1 fight that he won in the two matchups this season.
  5. Shut him down until after Christmas. He's damaged goods right now.
  6. I KNEW we should have taken Nylander or Ehlers!! HA, HA!!! HAPPY HALLOWEEN shotgunners!!
  7. With Baertschi out of the lineup, JV18 should get a look on the left side. What a snipe for his 3rd goal.
  8. Even if EP40 doesn't register a point vs Chicago on Wednesday, he's already a shoe-in for Rookie of the Month of October. BEST player in the 2017 draft class without question.
  9. It's not complex at all. You, my friend, love the Orca and dislike all the non-Orca Canuck logos. My feelings are the opposite. Stick in Rink = Two hockey elements coming together to form a C - Canucks Hockey. The colours of blue, green and white represent the surrounding waters, greenery and snowcapped mountains. Vancouver is far more known for its natural scenery than the odd pod of orcas that swim into the Burrard Inlet.
  10. The orca wouldn't be an improper logo if the team name were "Orcas" or "Haidas". You're halfway there. Full body Johnny Canuck on both shoulders and the original Stick in Rink as the primary crest. Or in reverse with a Johnny Canuck roundel as the primary.
  11. I think Boeser's groin injury is a real blessing. This may sound crazy but if he ever were to be 'The Flow' or 'Brock the Rock' this season like he was last season, I would keep him out of games until after Christmas. Right now, he's damaged goods beyond the groin. His wrist must still be bothering him and he has had limited off-season training due to his freak back injury. I think that once Boeser's groin and wrist have fully healed, he needs to start training like he would in the off-season. He needs to work on his shot and more importantly, he needs to work on his skating. If you look at Boeser's only two goals this season, one came on a rare slap-shot in Tampa and the other came on his legendary wrister in Pittsburgh but in the gimmicky 3-on-3 overtime. He's been subpar 5-on-5. If Boeser can take as much time off in order to heal and train so he can be the great sniper we all expect him to be, I'm all for it. I always compared his goalscoring to Islander great Mike Bossy. The difference is that Bossy had speed in order to find the open areas for his lethal shot. Boeser is no longer a secret around the league. Therefore, he needs to work on his skating. Otherwise, he will be just another above average NHLer.
  12. It's only 4 games but the numbers do not lie. This kid has Canucks GOAT potential. Keep up the great work EP40! https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo0VZczjGSf/?utm_source=ig_web_options_share_sheet
  13. 1st goal of the year for The Flow/Brock the Rock!
  14. Is Gadjovich hurt? Hasn't been in the Comets' line up since the season started.
  15. The Canucks' origins started with Johnny Canuck in the Pacific Coast/Western Hockey League. Logging has been a historic industry in our province and it built the City of Vancouver.
  16. The original and current blue and green are Vancouver colors but the Flying V and Skate colors have a Vancouver flavour to them, ie. BC sunset yellow-gold and Canadian red. Love both colour schemes.
  17. Making the skating Johnny Canuck as the primary on a new third sweater is the way to go. However, a JC sweater has to be better put together than how it looked on those previous green fashion sweaters. The logo needs to be either larger or have a crest-shaped background. The Canucks Store sells these awesome-looking JC roundel patches. To those who haven't seen them, it's designed like the original Stick In Rink with 'VANCOUVER' between 12 & 1 o'clock and 'CANUCKS' between 7 & 6 o'clock. Parts of JC overlaps the roundel instead of Johnny being trapped entirely inside. I purchased several of them. I think that JC in that format would look great on a Canucks sweater. I would stick with royal blue as the primary colour with updated striping and a return to the traditional block font with an added green border. It would look so much better than the orca primaries with the cluttering arched 'VANCOUVER' wordmark and weak Agency font.
