  1. Some guy from NHL Network: Canucks are irrelevant. Me: I don't even know who you are.
  2. What is your favourite superhero villain? Mine is Dr. Octopus from Spider-Man 2.

      He sets fire to the money with Lau on top of the pile. Then sends the Russian to get chopped up to dog meat. Yikes.

  3. If he can allegedly skate well then why were there so many articles and posts about how he's slow and 'a couple strides behind'? Hitting doesn't really involve being a good skater. You can hit anyone from anywhere, it's not that difficult. Everything from his offensive production to his analytics to the eye test proves he isn't a good skater and has lost many steps since leaving Boston. He is just not a very good NHL player anymore.
  4. What does hitting have to do with speed? Have you even seen him play the past 2 seasons? He can't score, he can't skate, he can't pass, he can't keep up with teammates. He only scored 2 goals in the entire calendar year of 2018. Plus he gets paid too much for a year longer than Eriksson. Cool he can hit and fight, that's also what Gudbranson was here, do not need a redux.
  5. Miss out on what? Slow useless pylon that has another year more than the slow useless pylon we're trying to get rid of?
  6. NO BRAD NOOOOO Why? Why would Calgary do this? I'm flummoxed...
  7. Happy Birthday you big dope! Have fun in Utica!
  8. I understand the excitement, believe me I'm excited that we have some guys that will stand up, but it's getting a tad ridiculous IMO.
  9. Yeah, fair. I'm just talking about people who are straight up analysing just the fighting ability of Ferland and not his hockey ability as much. And putting him in matchups with Gudbranson? It's not a productive conversation. I love what Ferland brings, he's a deterrent, a fighter when he needs to be, and a big hitter. But most important is his talent, and it irritates me that we're talking about his impact with his fists instead of his impact on the scoreboard.
  10. God, shut up about fighting. What I'm excited about is that we signed a guy who plays a power game and produces, we did not sign him to go headhunting or fighting all the time. Unnecessary fighting will lead to more concussions and do not make an impact at any point in the game. Guddy was a good fighter but a terrible HOCKEY PLAYER, stop talking about this useless BS, it's hockey, not ****ing boxing.
  11. I know it's very early, it's not even halfway through July, but I can see the Canucks winning a round or two if they make it to the playoffs this upcoming season.

      Same! Amazing what a month can do to a team!

       

      Hopefully the guys stay healthy, build chemistry, and play for the team.

       

      also Boeser signed to a reasonable deal.

       

      GMJB gonna bring a cup home soon! 

  12. LeBron and AD look like a supervillain duo from a Disney movie.

  13. I'd rather have Gardiner than Myers. From what I've read from Jets fans, he isn't worth it, Gardiner at least provides offense.
  14. This OP is so bad. It's like an unintentional parody of itself.
  15. Imagine cheering for the Warriors...

      @Twilight Sparkle they didn't choke, it was an even game and to be fair they outplayed the warriors again and really could have won all 5 games. Game 2 they have away, this game, the Warriors just kept hitting 3's. They won't win the series that way, it was absurd how many they were hitting. Its the raps series. If they lose in 7 I'll call it a choke, but there was some awful calls / non calls too that would have made the difference for the raps.

      @18W-40C-6W Warriors entire 5 year dynasty has been about hitting 3's. They have the two best 3 point shooters in NBA history. If they're going to win this series that's the only way they are going to win...if KD didn't get injured they hitting a lot more 3's

  17. I ****ing love these playoffs. I say Canes in 7, I think it's going to be a very interesting series.
  18. Lou Lamoriello hasn't been the Devils' GM in 5 years. lol
  19. Tampa...

  20. Mikko Rantanen was a 10th overall pick.

  21. Looks like Tavares' feelings were hurt. That whole sequence was pure cringe. Just stop with your pettyness Toronto.

      He knew he was going to T.dot the whole way. He led them on. I would be upset to if I was a NYI fan. I think they would be much less rattled if he would have been up front and allowed them to trade him at the deadline for some assets.

      oh well, he can cry himself to sleep on a mountain of cash. He deserves every boo for how he strung that fan base along.

      clearly

      the amount of hate that now exists

      shows how much love there used to be

       

      it is true hate is the flip side of love

      the opposite of love is ambivalence

      and isle fans are not luke warm about tavares

  22. I was wrong about Gudbranson, I was one of those people who were excited to pick him up. The trade in retrospect looks horrible now considering McCann is a guy we can really use right now. Guddy was a great guy who was a presence in the locker room and was a good fighter. but none of his best qualities are that of a good hockey player, and I think it's better to get rid of him so we can start rebuilding the defence properly. Ultimately, he is in the wrong era and his numbers and his on-ice play say so too. Hopefully, Guddy finds a place in PIT and plays well, I just don't think he can turn it around anymore considering he's played almost 500 games in the NHL and is 27 years old. Some people think his "physical presence" will be missed, but he didn't really bring that here and the negatives outweigh the positives by a wide margin. The NHL is transitioning, this isn't 2003 anymore, we can't afford to have players that are "physical" and mean while at the same time they stink at hockey, we need skill, and unfortunately, Erik Gudbranson is nowhere near that.
