      Yeah, because he's the only player to struggle under Green. Remember that 8 game win streak immediately after firing Green and co.?

      Agreed, if Petey works on his draws over the offseason and can get a healthy summer of training in I believe him and Bo could be a good 1/2 punch

       

      Next season should be fun

      @Chickenspearexactly - proves he is not ready to be a highly paid hockey player.  You don't see other $7 million a year plus players "struggling" because of a coach. 

      Just saying.  

      The reality was Pettersson was a contract hold out and was not ready to play when the season started - wouldn't have mattered who was coaching - took him 20 plus games to get in game shape.


       

  2. 5 game road trip against beatable teams. Can the boys get it together finally and come home close to .500?

     

    Hope is all I got folks

      remember the first roadtrip.

      Detroit and Buffalo were also supposed to be beatable teams. Even tough Canucks lost both games.

      Look at the last game against Chicago.

      Chicago is a bad team and when they came into town they were tired.

      Nevertheless Van couldn't take advantage of it.

      This team is done.

      What if they don't win a game?  :frantic:  Probably nothing.

      The first road trip was decent. Detroit we dominated. The only game I was disappointed with was Buffalo. No one showed up to that one. Expected a win I suppose. They are done when they are done 

  3. A little positivity to go into the week. Oilers and Flames are kind of sucky to start the season too. Not super sucky like us but sucky. The division is wide open. We can get back into this thing with a good road trip or continue the suck. Should be a fun week :) 

  4. All I can hope for now is the boys pull together now, go on a big winning streak and make things interesting. Really what does it matter picking 15th or 20th. Lets cheer on the boys

      Someone should remind Chicago and Arizona even if you are at the bottom of the league your chances for 1st overall are less than 1 in 5.

      I'd honestly rather see him in Arizona or Seattle, &^@# the Hawks 

  8. Bring Back Bruce! He’s been the best thing for this franchise in a very long time.

      Great week for the boys - started 9 points out - right now 7 points out and only 8 behind the Coilers 

      GO CANUCKS GO!!!!!

      Bring back the Sedins. Trade for Weinhandl.



      Miller Petterson Boeser

      Sedin Sedin Weinhandl

      etc etc

  13. Discussions here are going to be awful until Petey and Hughes are signed. I think it’s about time for a break from CDC for me. Only another month to go for things to get exciting again. Can’t wait

      I’ve been meaning to ask about this as it’s my first off-season on this forum. I notice a fair number of regulars have disappeared and I was wondering I’d it’s because so many people here get cranky when they’re bored. Do most come back or is this normal turnover?

    3. Guest

      Guest

      @4petesake it's just regular as people are out on lakes and camping, and such...  Once the rains come back in September/October, so do the members...  then again we should ask @-Vintage Canuck- and @-DLC- as they're the bosses around here and maybe have an insight into analytics.  Don't mention my Corsi For % please :ph34r:

    4. -DLC-

      -DLC-

      Yep, I think you're right VH.  Sun is out and we're finally allowed out of our cages so people are living life (again).

      Some were suspended due to illegal hits to the head (aka giving us all a headache). 

       

      Some fade out until there's "news" that's worthy of returning for or the season gets underway.

       

      Most do return at some point.  It's always nice to see familiar faces come back.

  14. Does Halak only get half his bonuses? Sub .905 save% on the year

      @Devron 30 goal scorers? 

      Flames are about to have 3 x 40 goal scorers - something the Canucks have never done.  

      We lost last night cause our "30 goal" scorers couldn't beat a backup goalie.

      (Pettersson got 1 but he was -2 on the night)

    3. Devron

      Devron

      One wasn’t even playing and the other had 3 assists. Nice argument @Heretic haha. Like I said how about some defencemen

  16. FREE Loui emoji. For the 5 years of pain we endured 

  17. Go 5-2 on this home stand and I don’t think anyone’s getting moved (maybe some minor things) It’s playoff push time! 

    1. JM_

      JM_

      I wonder if we'll see some lower-level hockey trades instead, e.g., Hoglander for a d upgrade? maybe move one of Poolman or Hamonic for a mid-round pick? that sort of thing. 

    2. Devron

      Devron

      Yeah that’s more what I think. Hopefully they hold onto to Hoglander but if we can dump one of those 2-3 million contacts. Keep our picks. That’s what I’d wanna see

    1. Dazzle

      I'll help you out. Benning sucks at his job. I'll tell you why. The ones he paid 1 mill for meant that no one else wanted them. For the longer contracts, he got out GM'd. /sar ;)

       

       

    2. Devron

      I’ll do you one better The good moves were the Sedins. The bad moves were Benning lol

  20. Halak has a NMC. He cannot be moved or placed on Waivers but “get rid of him” lol. “Bring up Martin” lol.

      @Quantum that's what I'd do if he's not willing to move.  Martin's outplayed him so it's going to be next to impossible for him to argue that the decision wasn't based on merit.

      If I'd taken a shot for every time someone said waive him or send him to the AHL last night I'd be dead 

       

      Shows how many fans don't actually keep an eye on contracts when discussing players 

  21. Half way mark. Looking forward to getting our players back and going on a run. Bruce there it is 

    1. Alflives

      I see us going 30 - 9 -2 over the second half.

      We will get second in our division too.  

    2. JM_

      this group does have the potential to go on a nice run. We need to take it to Cowgary and beat the traitor Markstrom tho. 

  22. I find it funny that the Leafs media is asking Matthews questions about his contract. He’s under contract for 2 more years! Literally is not allowed to sign a deal right now. Ridiculous this stuff people talk about that’s so far away. Reminds me of the Miller trade deadline talks 6 months before the deadline. Enjoy the moment people

      AM will pull a Seth Jones and say he's not re-signing with TO a year early. He ends up in AZ and extends for 15 mil per is my guess.

      Not a fan of Matthews but the repetitive stupid questions these guys are asked is ridiculous.  He should tell the Leaf media if they bring this up one more time he is definitely not signing with the Leafs.

  23. I just wanna watch more Bruce B hockey

  24. I made a status update about taking break from CDC a week ago. For whatever reason it never turned out. Boredom I suppose. Anyways the reasons behind that would be the toxicity of the discussions re; Hughes and Petey I foresaw as we patiently wait for their contracts to be resolved and the season to start. Turns out I was right we have a Hockey God/Expert in the Proposal Section. Why do I bother? For the greater good I suppose. A balance in the force? 
    Do people not remember having ZERO good young stars. We have a handful now and people want to blow that up? AMAZING
