  1. Any chance the Canucks would be able to draft Andrew Cristall from the Rockets? I've watched him play and he has tremendous skill. Seems to be really moving up the rankings so not sure where he will get picked.
  2. Thanks for this. I'm in the initial first 2-3 day and it's nothing I ever want to experience again. I feel like I'm on the mend but I'm going to take your advice about pacing yourself. I'm far from recovered.
  3. I tested positive this week. As soon as I put the drops in it was like someone quickly took a sharpie on the test line. Knew in seconds. I’m also unfortunate that mine has not been mild at all. I knew Covid wasn’t great but I underestimated how hard the punch was going to be and the speed it was going to hit.
  4. Benning should be restricted from making trades. I would fire Benning and Green.
  5. I just had my cold/flu in two years over the weekend. Friday night I just got blasted with a fever, congestion, sore throat , chills , headache and I was sure it was covid but I came back negative. I think we’re in for a bad cold and flu season. So many new germs are immune systems don’t know what to do.
  6. This was the first game I’ve went to since fans were allowed back. What an incredible atmosphere. I was on the glass in the Canucks end and that sequence on the 5 on 3 was crazy. Hopefully we can get some more wins!
  7. I wouldn’t be opposed to trading him while he still has value. I think his best seasons are behind him and by the time his contract is up will have younger plays ready to take his spot. We need 2 young top 4 defenceman badly. Our forward depth is fine.
  8. I’ve seen him around town. Way out of shape.
  9. Any business that doesn’t check my vaccine card I’m walking out. No support. I have no patience for these antivaxxers any longer. Now they want to protest in front of our hospitals what a slap in the face. The doctors didn’t make the mandate.
  10. Great deal. Giving term to a 25 year old who is just getting better is fine. The cap hit is more then reasonable too.
  11. I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets one more shot at league min. He’ll probably blow that too and then have to look for a job overseas.
  12. Right. Set a deadline with interested teams and either they want him or they don’t. If not then we keep him. It’s kind of hard on the player if this drags on for months.
  13. You know it’s not close when the GM send the agent to look for a trade. I think Schmidt and Holtby are undesirable. Probably stuck with them both unless we add a sweetener.
  14. Cya. I support this move. Poor character and his on ice play was borderline acceptable at best. Hope this is the wake up call for him. His career is in serious jeopardy and it would be sad if he wasted it away.
  15. This is a dumb trade. We took on 42 million plus whatever we pay Garland. We got rid of 12 million that’s expiring at the end of next year. So straight up salary exchanges we were behind big time. Obviously we get a good player in Garland but is he worth all those picks plus us taking on a terrible contract? I think it’s a bad trade. Just my opinion.
  16. Big mistake losing Lind. Every time he gets his first taste at a higher level he has sucked whether that’s is junior, AHL and the NHL. Once he gets comfortable he is pretty effective. JB should of made a deal to get Seattle to eat a contract.
  17. I would really love to get Lysell. He plays on a deep team and everything I see and read looks really good. Low risk. This draft seems all over the place though. Could we get him if we don’t move up? I’ll be honest I have no idea where these players are going to go.
  18. Good he’s back. Now will suck for two more years and maybe we can get Wright or Bedard.
  19. I think it’s time to go separate ways with Jake. It was debatable before these allegations I think this just confirms that’s it the right move for the team. His decision making in the past has been questionable and I think every effort has been done to try and make it work. Maybe a change of scenery is the wake up call for Jake to save his career.
  20. Point, Huberdeau, Fowler all dropped and have turned out good. That’s just off the top of my head.
  21. Maybe the older veterans that know this is there last contract and then it’s either Russia or retirement. Would it really be smart for someone like Gaudette to just quit on a coach while he is trying to make his way? That would be dumb. This team needs to defend better but they also need the personnel to get it done. It’s terrible. By far the worst on paper in the North.
  22. I’m not sure why people get so hung up on Travis Green. Is he doing a great job? Not necessarily but there are worse problems. Remember this team over achieved by nearly making it to the conference finals with Travis Green. What’s the difference this year? Roster construction. This is on Benning.
