  1. Love that Johnny Canuck jersey. Don’t like the C being on the other side.
  2. I am in no favor of a Loui Eriksson for Milan Lucic trade. But if Olli Juolevi (would have to be protected in expansion draft) and Evan Bouchard (would not have to be protected in expansion draft, at least I think) were involved (Benning not initiating it because we know he would add a draft pick plus Milan Lucic waving all future protection clauses) I might pause to consider.
  3. I would say so. When Vancouver made the multiple trades to get the Sedins they gave up more in every one of the 3 trades. This 3 player proposal wouldn’t be so complex. But if NJ wants to grab Quinn, they have to add more to a potential deal.
  4. I believe Makar and Heiskanen were going to be drafted by Canucks if they weren't already taken by the teams that drafted them. Your proposal is a good proposal. I would think the Canucks would have to get something else back since we are giving the opportunity to reunite the Hughes brothers.
  5. The one that was first posted is for season ticket holders (Full). This Thursday. We get a special one time use code. The one with the 4 seats per account is for public sale next Thursday, May 23.
  6. If they just remove the Vancouver part and change some of the stripes and stuff it’s no different than the jerseys they wore from 1997 to 2008 other than the colours. Going into the 50th season it’s time to change it up. I for one am not going to buy another jersey if they just remove the Vancouver. It has to be something major like a logo change. If they keep the stick in the rink logo also I’ll just find an old one on eBay or something. I would buy any version of the running Johnny Canuck. Well actually if they did the old flying skate but with blue and green colours then I would probably buy it. No orca logo or stick in rink.
  7. Dallas would want our 1st pick this year or next year. At least another pick like a 2nd this year or next years. Maybe also 3rd, 4th or 5th just because Jim likes throwing in picks in trades. Now that they banked 3 picks they are going to want a roster player with a controlled contract (Virtanen/Stetcher/Gaudette) and a prospect (I am not going to bother trying/looking up how to spell his name properly 2016 1st round pick/Lind/Woo/DiPietro). Dallas does not want garbage contracts going to them or players like Baer (regular players with short contracts, UFA status). Unless Benn is willing to hold out, which I don’t think will happen, he is stuck in Dallas unless he opens his list up to more teams than Vancouver. Difference between Kesler and Benn is that this wouldn’t be a big distraction in Dallas as it would have in Vancouver. I could see Kesler holding out for a trade putting major coverage in Canada everyday and more pressure on Benning to make a move. In Dallas they are all Cowboys.
  8. If we do have to be penalized obviously hope that Luongo retires this year. $2.8 m is easier (well since we are already paying $800 k then its really only $2 m more) to absorb the next 3 years than the other options. I just hope we win the lottery as a trade off.
  9. They put 5 tv's along 307 to 308. When you said you got up and left the guy beside me did the same thing. Was wondering if that was you.
  10. Were you sitting in section 308, row 11, seat 7 & 8. The puck barely crossed the plain and that person was already up and walking out. I was thinking that’s good timing. Also when did they put those TV’s up along sections 307 to 309?
  11. I actually wonder how many full season ticket holders there actually are. Whenever I go to the seat relocation (just to look, never consider moving from 308, row 11 unless it’s to aisle) my number is 29?? (I’m not hiding it I really don’t know the last 2 numbers). When I first went to full season (2004/2005) from half season I was 46??. I hope it’s not a jersey since I have a RBK blue one. The Adidas blue one that is still in the packaging that they gave every STH a year ago. I can’t remember when renewing if it said that the gift was it or if it was a replacement for the $150 gift (I took the Top Table card for this year).
  12. Have until the 22nd to decide to renew. I took the $150 gift card to Top Table last year. They will probably offer the same stuff they offered last year.
  13. Since Elder, Sutter and Tanev have gone down, noticed that Beagle and Roussel have the "A". High praise for 2 players that only came aboard this year. I think the C will be Bo Horvat next year. They could do a special ceremony for the 50th season opener, like they did for Henrik during the 2011 season which was the 40th year. Then I would make a forward and defense man "A" for both home and away. So Horvat "C" Forward "A" Beagle, Roussel or Sutter (probably traded) Defense "A" Elder, Tanev (if they are both here) or Gudbranson (probably will still be here) Did anyone else notice that the 2011 season was the 40th season recognition season instead of 2010 because of the 2005 lockout? So if they followed the same path the 50th season should be the 2020 - 2021 season lol.
  14. As long as they don't do what some of the other teams did for Las Vegas like trade a first round pick or a pick with a bad contract. In the end we are going to lose one player.
  15. In 2006 I got to sit in the lower bowl in the corners. Can't remember if it was assigned seating, as I couldn't find the ticket stub, which I collect if it's not PDF. Also, couldn't remember if the upper bowl was open. I looked back on my accounting and I bought 4 tickets for $29.50.
