  1. who cares if Jake went to Vegas during his break? the local media is making it sound like he showed up to a game drunk. And they claim "the fans" will be outraged. Sometimes I really hate our local hockey media trying to stir up bs.

      Must be Jeff "I can't believe Benning gave up a 4th round pick" Patterson reporting this.

  2. Do you let a player's personal life/views affect if you're a fan or want them on your favorite team?

     

    I'm talking political ideologies, criminal record or run-ins with the law, personality and opinions, etc.

      Watching Brad Marchand score the game winning goal in the World Cup final last season made Canada winning the World Cup bittersweet for me. 

       

      EDIT. Misread the question, I don't know anything about Marchand personally, but this is based on his on-ice antics.

  3. Man. Boeser has his work cut out for him now.

  4. one of benning's best trades was moving raphael diaz to the rangers for a 5th round pick in 2015...

    pierre mcquire said that adam gaudette was the steal of that draft.

      @smithers joe It was actually Mike Gillis that made the deal to trade Diaz for the 5th round pick. In fact, I believe it was the last deal that Gillis ever made before getting canned. So I guess you could say that it was a nice parting gift by Mike.

      I can't blame them, they gotta cheer for something especially when your team has only won a total of one playoff series in the last 25 years.

      It's too bad the NHL tends to protect cowards like Tkachuk and Marchand.

      We've gained Hutton, Pouliot and Juolevi on the left side since that trade. Safe to say we'll be fine without him. We also may get Rasmus Dahlin later on too. :bigblush:

      What @Xbox said. Besides their Twitter will most likely be doing a lot of sugar coating all season anyhow, considering how bad they will be.

  12. Oiler fans are an interesting breed. On a lot of the Canuck-related tweets I see, there's almost always some uppity Oiler fan going "lol canucks suck!!1". It's interesting just how many of them seem to have forgotten about the last decade or so of pure suckage the Oilers were before fluking into McJesus.

      You can pretty much lump all Coiler, Lames and Laffs fans into the same group.

  14. Who was a greater goalie for the Canucks? Luongo or Miller?

     

    I am biased because I only became a Canucks fan towards the end of Lu's tenure, so I am abstaining from a vote. I am seen folks on here post on both sides; I'm curious to see more opinions. 

    1. pluralsight

      Luongo for sure. To be fair though, Lu did play behind some solid teams but he also carried a mediocre team at best (06-07).

  15. Who are your favorite teams (if any) besides the Canucks? What about favorite players on different teams?

     

    I'm a big fan of the Coyotes and the Wild. Fave players include Vladimir Tarasenko, Mikael Granlund, Sebastian Aho, Jakub Voracek, and Patrik Laine.

    1. pluralsight

      @Cramarossa good question. It all depends on how long they've been with the team and how they left. For example, I still hope that guys like Bieksa and Burrows do well but not a guy like Kesler (obvious reasons) or someone like Matt Bartkowski (only played one season with the Canucks) or Cramarossa for that matter ;)

      I have the same feeling as @TimberWolf. I also hate every other team that's not the Canucks. I also don't care for individual players, I respect all the superstar players and their talents but I'm not fans of them. Unless they're wearing the Canuck colors of course.

  18. CGY only has 1/6 picks left in the first 3 round of the 2018 and 2019 drafts... pressure is on now in Cowtown to go deep. And not make a free agent mistake.

      Even with their "stacked" d-core, I still don't see Calgary knocking out either Nashville, Anaheim, Chicago or even Edmonton to get out of the west. At best they will be a top regular season team that fizzles out in the playoffs.

  19. Status Update #2: TSN1040 poll has confidence in Canucks management at 31% vs 69% against.  WTF people?  FYI I voted yes :) 

  20. Woah, the season ticket advertisement header has Juolevi, Boeser, Virtanen and Demko in it. Foreshadowing?

  21. Cody Glass was supposed to visit Vancouver, but has it happened yet? If not, perhaps he already has a promise to get drafted higher than 5?

      Either it hasn't happened yet, or they just haven't publicized it. Maybe, I'm missing the point, but what's the big deal?

      I'd go for Housley too. We all know what happened the last time the Sabres took Pittsburgh's sloppy seconds.

      As they should, the Leafs and Oilers have got a whole decade of sucking on the Canucks. That's a whole lot of sucking. Also, the Atlanta/Winnipeg franchise has only made the playoffs twice since 1999, that's also a lot of sucking. The fact that we have something on the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked is a good thing.
