  1. I was so thinking that watching his shot and highlight reel goals from his rookie season. He is back!!!!!!!! Getting better every series. Expect him to blow a slap shot by Vegas soon.
  2. I 100 % agree. They played like 12 games in 20 nights. Im sure Bettman was choked at the stoppage giving the Canucks a 4 day pause. The 2 b2b's are in my mind an effort to put pressure on a few teams as well as help Vegas Boston. I wish i could see it another way but History tells me they want all Canadian teams out.
  3. This has me ripped 5 in 7. How the nhl cant afford 1 extra day. Sure puts pressure on Markstrom. I hope he stands on his head and sends Vegas home.
  4. This is absolutely the best thing that could happen to the Canucks. The rest will help immensely. They have played every other night for some time with a couple back to backs. like 12 game s in 23 nights. thats insane and so like the NHL to use covid as an excuse to rush through these series. How did they go from St Louis in 6 . To only 1 day off between Vegas. Now thats so NHL towards Vancouver,. it does not surprise me at all Vancouver was all over this opportunity to get a rest. And be a good cause at the same time. This looks like the year for hoisting Lord Stanley>
  5. Hughes has been a beast. I 've noticed he is playing safe and not jeopardizing team defense to create offence. miles ahead of his age.
  6. Good point. Might as well enjoy the SC play-offs with-out the energy. They seriously should have just looked at October. but that won't be clear until we watch the product on TV.
  7. \This can't be counted as play-off experience. I have been a fan since the Canucks 82 run and played much Hockey. The big momentum shifts that take place when teams score will be completly gone. how about the big fight or great save, It is awesome to have hockey back but this will be so diffrent it will be a young mans game. Experience will be thrown out the window as it will be all new. And the fresh legs of the youth will show beyond anyones imagination! The older player especially larger players will not be sharp at all for this tourney. But welcome back Hockey! They mangaged to ruin 2 season by saving 1. How about if a star player or two or three get the virus. this is going to be fun at its best.
  8. The great teams didn't surround their core players with younger players and win cups. They added veterns to lead the younger players to cups. This is a dangerous team with lots of depth and add a hot goalie and you never know what will happen. And as soon as the young players develop consistent efforts they will be a top tier team. rIGHT NOW THEY CAN BE A TOP TIER TEAM one night and a bottom teir team the next. And I'm sure the Canucks have enough prospects to go forward. Madden will never be a top 3 player. He is just too small. Maybe in the regular season. But small forwards get beat up in the play-offs. Just ask Johnny Flame kid.
  9. Lots of teams have won the cup or challenged with rosters not expected to make runs at it. You can lay over thinking the top teams will win the cup every year if you want. Or yo can look at a very weak conference and think with a break you could go to the finals. A couple upsets and you never know what is going to happen eg. LA or more recently St Louis!
  10. Kesler will never get Booed again by Van Fans in General. its time we can celebrate what happened in 2011! The more teams they add the harder it will be for any team to win a cup. And for a Canadian Team to beat the NHL and opposing team it might never happen again! Mason Raymond broken Back! aaron Rome suspension the series had a odd flavor!
  11. On the offside non-call I wonder if it was the other way if the same call is made?
  12. I have bad news for you then. Quinn will win the Calder because he is better suited for the long season with his effortless skating!
  13. Simply put. The NHL was trying to screw Vancouver with the Lottery and in the process as Don Cherry would say the Hockey god's evened things out!
  14. And before the draft on CDC I was scolded for saying I was happy losing the lottery because The best player was not going to be at number one. I also stated The best defenseman would be the not Rasmu as I didn't want to jink any shot at landing him. (hughes)
  15. I loved seeing Hughes and stetcher out their. Talk about speed on the back end. It kinda killed some of the Isles momentum!
  16. I've seen team s win the cup with performances like the Canucks had tonight. I have seen the Canucks dominate and lose series and vice versa. This team last year was always giving up the lead late in games. Now they seem to always get the empty net goals>
  17. give it another two years and you will be saying Dahlin who!
  18. Canucks Regular Members 2,535 2,444 posts Location: aT tHe RiNk Report post Posted June 22, 2018 I never expected Quinn to fall in the draft. And anyone who has ridiculed me for saying Rasmus Dhalin is not the best defensman in this draft. I am looking forward to seeing this kid prove me right. 3 1 canuktravella, Alexandre, VegasCanuck and 1 other reacted to this TOOK ALOT OF HEAT FOR COMMENTS like these but man it appears I might be right!

  19. The Canucks have beat the teams they needed to beat the last couple weeks. And this morning the standings show that they beat Calgary, Edmonton, Vegas, Phoenix. And I remember how far back they we're at the end of November. Had they gotten through November a little cleaner they would be 6 or 7 points up. And to have a positive goal diff despite some blow-out losses speaks volumes.
  20. wait until he is the clear points leader in the NHL. Something I have called from the start. love this kids Hockey IQ
  21. I sure got ripped on Quinns draft year when I said that he would be the best offensive defenseman from the draft. And I still stand by my call to take him 1st over all. Could we have accidently won another draft lottery?
