  1. I want a Vancouver Tampa Bay finals ;)! Tampa Bay will regret giving us JT Miller
  2. Happy to hear Gaudette made it in the lineup. Kid should be hungry to earn a spot. I think he can provide more of an offensive punch then a lot of our roster. Should help the 2nd PP unit as well!
  3. Need a little shake up. I’d personally move Pearson up to the 1rst line Boeser down to the 2nd line. MaCEwen comes out and Gaudette gets onto the 3rd line and 2nd PP! Too many bottom 6 energy low skill guys on the 2nd PP unit. I was hoping for this change to have happened today.
  4. As much as I would have liked more from him he still looked better than MaCEwen. If Gaudette makes it in tonight I think it’s MaC that sits not Virtanen.
  5. I just wish he played like Motte. He doesn’t even have to score to make me happy just be effective in another craft defensively and hit everything that moves. Puck just bounces of his stick and he seems to be good for a bone head penalty a game.
  6. Haven’t been very impressed with Jake Virtanen. Also Zack MaCEwan has a rough game. I would like to see Gaudette get in the game.
  7. Theoretically yes but that depends on what Ferland and Eriksson would do. The idea of that would be Ferland doesn’t see progress in his health and stays on LTIR but him coming back for the series against the Wild I think this guy wants to play. So I wouldn’t bank on him being on LTIR otherwise we might find ourselves in trouble. Then with Eriksson they’re saying tell him they’re gonna send him to the minors next year and the thought of riding buses and playing in that league they think he’d rather mutually terminate his contract then reporting to the AHL. This one I think has a good chance of happening because Eriksson isn’t forfeiting 6 million a year for the next 2 years because we paid most his contract out early. He’s 6 mill on the cap but really only gets paid 2 mill each year. He’d be forfeiting 4 million for 2 years which he could probably make back by signing another deal this summer whether it be in the NHL with another team or back in Sweden.
  8. Eriksson is the only one that the team really needs to shed. Most of all the other guys contracts expire the summer we need to extend our young stars
  9. Time is what it will take for most of these guys. Am I missing something but isn’t Pettersson and Hughes both up after the 2020-21 season. By that time most of the guys mentioned contracts will run out.
  10. Depends on price tag. Obvious upgrade in the top 6 for this year and next.
  11. Blias should have been penalized. It’s absolutely insane that St Louis ended up with a PP after the boarding and scuffle. I don’t think it’s suspension worthy though.
  12. I always said Jake will show his value come playoff time! That speed with that size he’ll be a menace to opposing teams. He’s been very disappointing thus far in the playoffs.
  13. Doesn’t play get blown down when a player high sticks it and the next player to touch the puck is one of your teammates?
  14. Nice to see things haven’t changed since we’ve been here last lol. Need Gillis to make another comment about it lol.
  15. Perron is the perfect playoff player. He can do no wrong. Skates around doing just enough to agitate but nothing is ever too far to be a penalty. Wish we had a guy that could get away with stuff like that.
  16. Just like getting Horvat I’d rather trade for slightly less by sending one of our goalies out East.
  17. I don’t like the idea of paying the price of a trade for bottom 6 players. Tons of bottom 6 players available in free agency every year.
  18. Rangers with more lottery luck. Won the 2nd overall pick last year and the 1rst overall pick this year. Could have been worse though it could have been the Oilers, Leafs or Penguins.
  19. Yeah I think people forget the Naslund trade. The guy we traded for Naslund finished out the season then quit hockey to become a firefighter. Naslund was a 12 year Canuck and had some very good years. I know I’ll be flamed for it but Linden was low key one of the best trades the Canucks ever made. I get that the way it was done I didn’t like and Messier. Linden found his way back home years later. Vancouver got Bertuzzi, McCabe and a 3rd rounder (Ruutu). From those guys Vancouver flipped McCabe for 3rd overall (which was Henrik Sedin) and Bertuzzi was traded for Luongo and then Luongo was traded for Markstrom.
  20. I think it will be a package built around Demko for a dman.
