sounds like Brock will be ok but shut down for the year according to Dhaliwal

I wonder if we'll be asked to take a whale off our jersey before Chicago has to change theirs?
-
So when do we see the Doughty to TO blockbuster go down? LA is cleaning house.

agree with @King Heffy
no way LA deals Doughty for anyone but Mitch or Mathews.
It is the Leafs though..they could always throw in 5 1st rounders

What would you trade to SJ for the rights to Karlsson so we can negotiate with him now?
-

Not one for gossipy-rumours..but I hear Nlisson argued with Roussel about bad pims. Ruse then ran down his Missus, with the language of love. Nils flipped the banned-Byrd, & AR promptly hacked it off!
Again, this is just 2nd hand hearsay, & not usually my style eh? But what'll we do?!
Then it moved onto the wives of twitters(tbc)....

What would we have to add to a package of Gaudette and Loui to get Tierney from Ottawa?

@Alflives I'm pretty happy to get Leipsic actually, I wonder if he could be our next Burr? or Dane Fox I suppose. We'll find out soon enough.

@Wilbur This...
Unlike the U.S., where we keep score of everything all the time, Norway puts kids in sports but doesn’t let them keep score until age 13. The idea is to make sports part of their social development so that the motivation to stay involved is to have fun with their friends, not winning.

I'm very happy that the Canucks picked stability and patience with development over blowing things up yet again.

Holm and Pouliot now, Juolevi next season.
Say you trade Hutton this deadline and Pouliot or Holm excel with more minutes then you know your set at LD that offseason, don't need to sign anyone and can start Juolevi in AHL. If you don't trade Hutton you may not know what you have in Pouliot and Holm and could lose one of them.
I agree though that you need to get good value. I think my minimum value for Hutton is a second round pick

How do you feel about Sven Baertschi so far this season?

i think bo and boeser need a tough winger with them that can give them more space. most lines need that.
when pettersson and dahlin, make it to the canucks, they will need a strong defensive, preferable tough line mate.
i think that a gaudette, gadjovich, lind line, has all the elements of a good line.
-
I'm happy that todays headlines don't read "Horvat considering KHL for next season".

@-Vintage Canuck- Yeah, I hear ya, and props for ignoring the baloney. All I'm saying is that they have more influence on some fans than I think is healthy for the microscopic market we're in. Not necessarily in the case of the Sedins at this moment in time, but with younger players.
Does that apply to media everywhere? I'm certain that it does. Is there anything I can do about it? Only what @Jimmy McGill is trying to do for @apollo right now, remind people that they won't play anywhere else for a variety of personal reasons. If we all respect them enough to love them then we can lay off the trade chatter since, well, we all know 1040 will likely be perusing these boards looking for the next scandal or hot topic.
I'm going to blame the tequila I had for lunch for the rant, but regardless of that I still feel pretty strongly about the influence of our media, and it's not always for good.

@Green Building tequila for lunch? sweet.

Some Nazi's tried to have a party and no one showed up. I love my city. What a pathetic turnout for the haters today.

Rathbone is currently ranked above Boqvist in NHL d prospect rankings.

These are statistical rankings. Dobson is having a weak season on a terrible team so he isn't on it @Chip Kelly
-
@Time Lord how does Jett Woo have better stats than Dobson still? Woo is supposed to be a stay at home type defensive d man, who occasionally contributes offence like Erik Gudbranson was when drafted.
-
I think Aquilini is lucky Seattle isn't doing well either. We'd be seeing a lot of jumping ship if they were.
-
I'm hoping to see Schaller on waivers.
Zero pushback. And he has by far the worst goals against with the Schiller-Beagle-Sutter line. Its not even close (https://www.naturalstattrick.com/linestats.php?fromseason=20192020&thruseason=20192020&stype=2&sit=5v5&score=all&rate=n&team=VAN&vteam=ALL&view=wowy&loc=B&gpfilt=none&fd=2019-10-02&td=2020-04-04&tgp=2000&strict=incl&p1=8477213&p2=8474291&p3=8474091&p4=0&p5=0)
Useless &^@#ing plug, brings nothing and costs goals.
Whew. OK there's my anger from last night all out.

Going to the game on Wed, and I'm wearing my Horvat jersey. Suck it, haters.

Is it just me, or is the new Tesla Cybertruck one ugly looking truck?

I wonder who's going to get Dzingle for cheap? surprised he's still available.

Odds on Puljujarvi signing a 1 year deal in Europe?

@alflives
anyone showing an interest in him
cannot share your viewpoint
they will have an assessment that assumes the oilers are a mess
cannot properly develop talent
and that the poolster is a talented young player that needs better surroundings
oilers will not firesale him
so i can see a lower 1st round pick getting it doen
or a player like virtanen.. high pick, slowish development
-
please god, can you make an alternative to 1040?

Nylander, Horton for Tanev and 2018 3rd?

@Jimmy McGill I'm obviously just speculating, but just like with any market, it depends on how the sellers sell him and whether the buyer agrees. The Leafs will try to sell him as a C, and if so, 20 goals, 41 assists, +20 shouts first-line Center at a very young age. The Leafs will want a proven player, a first-rounder and a couple of prospects for him.
-
@Jimmy McGillI agree. If management is confident Elias Pettersson is going to be our future 1C and Horvat's a 2C/team captain, I don't think they will be paying 1C money on another player at this point of the rebuild. The situation's different next year if (when) they get the number 1 overall draft pick. They have to get BPA and draft Quinn's brother even if he will end up as the 1C. But hey, I'm no GM and it's not my money...

The Senate just passed the pot bill. Fire up you stoners.

Did Matthews win the 'who's the best generational player' debate, with McPouty's meh playoff performance? Is Matthews the more complete player?
- Show previous comments 9 more

I'd like a larger sample size before I commit to anything, however, Matthews seems to have better control of his emotions. McD is probably so used to just "having his way" he was more easily rattled by professional, smothering, legit checkers. And it showed. He was forcing it and making "rookie" mistakes.
I'd expect a lot of growth from him in that regard as he becomes more accustomed to getting owned; he was having a hard time doing the little thing right.

I've come to terms with a Lucic for Eriksson deal. Git er dun Jim.
