    I don't believe Bo will fill the Horvat void in Long Island, either.

    We'll see. Lots of people believe Brisebois was instrumental in building the Stanley Cup champs. Yzerman did build a solid core, minus Hedman and Stamkos, but couldn't get them over the hump.
  3. BarnBurner
    Wow. You're pretty high on Stevie Y. He's been all over the place with his moves this summer. Let's see how this all works out in a couple of years.
  4. BarnBurner
    If that was the offer, major pass. Plus, the 1st RD pick would be around 22nd or 23rd. Like you say, with the addition of Hronek, drafting Willander and some other decent D prospects, we should be able to get more for a player of Miller's caliber.

    They shouldn't be showing them period. What kind of message are they sending to children and teenagers? They should all be banned.
  6. BarnBurner
    That's pretty impressive how close Linden was to Coffey. Larkin the cheater! Haha!

    Fair enough. Zadina was the consensus 3 pick. Hughes was anywhere from 3-9. Detroit chose "the steal of the draft," instead of picking their hometown hero. Thank you Yzerman.
  8. BarnBurner
    If I remember correctly, Hughes wasn't supposed to be available when we picked. I was surprised Detroit Zadina, which meant, it was a no-brainer to choose Hughes. He was a standout at 18 years old playing with men at the World Championship.
  9. BarnBurner
    And he's still only 20 years old. This kid knows how to put the puck in the net.
  10. BarnBurner
    I don't see any reason why not. He was drafted by his favorite team, and as long as he's paid fair market value and believes the team's moving in the right direction, more than likely, he's going to smash all of the Canuck's scoring records.
  11. BarnBurner
    Hopefully we'll start to see that with Hughes setting up Hronek on the PP.
  12. BarnBurner
    Not if Koach Heffy has anything to say about it.

    This is what the Canucks have to try and avoid. They've got to get their stars to realize, in order to contend and win the cup, they can't tie up $40 - $50 mil in four guys. It's not going to work. Let's hope so.
  14. BarnBurner
    Which I'm fine with. He's focused on improving upon last year and to become the best player he can. And when he consistently scores 100+ points, plus Selke consideration, he'll get paid extremely well. He did say that he likes the direction the Canucks are taking.
  15. BarnBurner
    That's actually a really good point. The development system took a big step in the right direction because Colliton, Up until that point, other than the Moose with Kesler, Bieksa, Burrows, and Rypien, it's been almost non-existent.
  16. BarnBurner
    This kid just keeps getting better and better.
  17. BarnBurner
    As long as Demko stays healthy, we don't repeat the start to last season, and avoid the injury bug, we should be challenging for at least a Wild Card spot.
  18. BarnBurner
    Definitely. Where's Randy Bachman when you need him?
  19. BarnBurner
    That's the best the prospect pool has looked in a long time. At least it's moving in the right direction.
  20. BarnBurner
    It should be this year or next. Isn't he still only 22?
  21. BarnBurner
    One way or another, this is going to be a highly competitive training camp with the likes of Karlsson, Hoglander, Podkolzin, battling for spots on the roster. Let alone the competition for defense.
  22. BarnBurner
    Churla was intentionally trying to intimidate/injure/harass Bure. Good for Bure standing up to the bitch. Same with Bertuzzi taking care of that scum sucking pig, Moore. Someone has to take care of business.
  23. BarnBurner
    If you can pull that off, you're running the team. Half kidding aside, that, or something very similar is what it would take to unite the Hughes Corporation together.
  24. BarnBurner
    I agree and I've already mentioned it. If I'm him, I'm betting on myself to improve upon last season. And in that case, that's major bank, which Petey would deserve, based on market value.

    Captaincy

    BarnBurner replied to Slegr's topic in Canucks Talk

    I agree. But unless he is all-in on being captain, I'd rather JT, so Petey or Hughes aren't subjected to that pressure. And as far as fire in his belly, I'd prefer Miller scrapping instead of QH. Miller was the one who went after Bo's cousin when he blindsided Petey last year.
