      @Pears If that was Mcdavid neutralized, sheesh. He looked dangerous with two guys on him down low. Connor is so damn good. Imagine if Petey or Boes had his skating ability, damn!

      Could the mods take away Alf's status update privileges? It's like he knows that half of CDC blocked him, so he posts all his dumb ramblings here instead. 

  2. Radio guys saying 40 new cm of snow on the ground in Ottawa.  Arena might be empty.

      Devils have cap space and top of the league and tons of salary cap space. It would be huge upgrade for them to upgrade Tatar to JT.

      Nah I’m good. The only acceptable return for Miller would be a defencemen 

    4. mordekai

      Tatar would be the cap coming back. But of course there would be more than just Tatar. 
      Tatar and a good prospect. Moving Miller is to mainly leave cap space for Bo and Kuz and still getting back a prospect like Mercer who can center the 3rd line.

  5. Rangers start winning, when Kakko’s ice time gets seriously limited.  Kreider is now going to resign there, according to Dreger.  

  6. Rathbone is better than Byram.  Holy crap!  We are a really good team!  Leave CDC Avs’ fans.

      I like your take on things most of the time but wanting fans of other teams and people with negative comments to leave would make this place a boring echo chamber.

  7. Really like Ristolinen from Buffalo.  I would trade our 2019 first (if it’s not first overall) for this guy.  He’s big, mean, physical, and skilled.  He’s Buffalo’s best D man by A LOT!!! I want him.

      So really, what's reasonable from a Sabres Fan perspective?

      I'm the wrong person to give that answer.  I don't have a high opinion on Risto, but he still has high trade value to a defense needy team. 

       

      The Sabres aren't in a huge hurry to get rid of him since he does eat up monster minutes, but if the TDL rumours were true, they were still listening to offers, but evidently didn't get a good enough offer to part with him.

       

      Will that change during the off-season when teams are looking to improve their roster for next season?  Your guess is as good as mine.

  10. Sakic trades for Kadri.  We need  JB to make several similar trades.  Move our best support players, who don’t provide meanness, for ones who will.

    4. Alflives

      I think it’s fair to say JB is great at the draft, but his UFA signings (and trades IMO too) are hurting our team.  We are now stuck with older guys, who are supposed to be the support/role players, that are soft and refusing to play hard for Green.  It’s either change them, or get a new coach those guys will both respect and fear.  Babcock is the only available coach who can do both.  Or, we stay the course and clearly miss the playoffs, while watching our young elite core get killed.  

  11. Sam Reinhardt having issues in Buffalo.  Reporters asking him about his effort.  What’s it cost us to bring Sam home?

      Boeser and Reinhart swap is something I would actually strongly strongly consider. Reinhart would fit nicely with Petey and Miller.

      Considering Reinhart is a little older I think Sabres would have to add for Boeser.

      Mine is a three wheeler.  It's got coil springs for each wheel, so it's really comfy out and about.  Plus, having the single front tire makes it easy to use in the house.  It's the EZ GoGo.  :lol:. Silly name.

  15. Scotty Bowman said the best trade he ever made was the one he didn’t. He almost traded Yzerman, but could get the right return. Maybe we are lucky to have kept Brock? He’s been looking great with Tocchet as coach.

      Brock is playing better but his agents is also talking to teams. I am sure they are putting him in a situation to look good while trying to find a trade. But I say keep Brock and keep putting him in positions to succeed. 

    3. Phil_314

      @#Canucks by "keep putting him in positions to succeed", if you were GM how inclined would you be to move Brock?

    4. #Canucks

      #Canucks

      @Phil_314 I personally would not move him. I’d keep him with Petey and manage him until He gains massive confidence. Otherwise first round top 15 + prospect & No retention of money.

      3 years ago Seahawks fans were talking about getting a more solid offensive lines, and more depth on

      receivers. But no. It's such a waste of a quality QB and you won't invest in players that will protect him.

  18. Seravelli (on 650) suggests our owner meddles in hockey ops.  I thought our owner is involved in setting club direction, but not actually involved in the specific decisions.

  19. Seth Jones’ minus 4 tonight has him now leading for the Green Jacket at -10.  (One up on those two great defensive guys in Loser Maker and terrible Chychrun). Hawks did well getting this guy.  :lol:

    3. Curmudgeon

      Curmudgeon

      The Jones signing may prove to be the worst in modern history with Chicago looking at a commitment of 8 years and $76 million. This season the Hawks are paying 30.5 million for three players in Jones, Toews and Kane. Those three have accounted for one goal, 9 assists and a collective -22 +/- rating. Only Kane seems to be producing (1G and 4A) but he's on the injury list now, while Toews seems only a shadow of his former self. Jones is a highly paid player of only average ability. How does Stan Bowman keep his job?

      Gotta trim cap for the future as it is, plus this is a strong draft class, so def. no to adding for playoff run.

  22. Should we go after Dahlin of Chychrun?  Thdy might be worth a second.  Kind of like we did with Baertchi.  Give up a second for a reclamation project.  Or is it just a wasted pick, and best kept?  

  23. Should we, on our Canucks’ Fans’ home board, do away with posts that compliment other teams’ players?  I know it sure sets old Alfer off.  Maybe we can just have hatred for all other teams, their players, and their fans?  It’s 100% Canucks or nothing?
