  1. The Chicken Big Mac is the worst thing I’ve ever put in my mouth

      I can't believe you even put that poison into your mouth.  I haven't had any fast food since forever.  I feel sick even driving by a McDonald's and smelling that crap, neve rmind eating it.  I may have a Tim Horton's doughnut every once in a while, and one of their egg sandwiches if I am in a rush.  Sometimes if I am filling up my car, I may even have a tuna sandwich from the gas station.  But McDonald's?  God, never...

  2. i wonder if we drop far enough out of the draft sweepstakes, will we take the top defenseman available? whose ranked the best d-man?

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      David Reinbacher is the top Dman I think.  He may go in the top 7 however, so we not even get him.

  3. Am I being a bit too optimistic if I say I think there could be something with this group next year if we add at least 2-3 defensemen capable of playing defense at the NHL level?

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Yes, we have most of the forwards we need now.  If we can land one of the 3 big centres in this years draft plus a couple of sandpaper guys then we are set up front.  Silovs looks like the real deal so I think we are set in goal too.  So gotta get probably 3-4 new Dmen this summer.  I think it's possible to do that.  We would need to buyout OEL an trade Myers to make it happen though to free up all that cap space.  Here's hoping that JR/PA can make it work...

  4. Which is worse: OEL at 7.2 for 4 more years, or Huberdough at 10.5 for 8? Flames are so screwed! 

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Huberdeau is much worse.  And that is saying something.  I think Huberdeau is the worst contract in the NHL...

  6. Barzal done for the season. 1st could be next years at this point

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Week to week means one month minimum.  If he does come back it will probably be too late.  The only question now is how they will fare in the lottery.  If they end up between 8-12 I think they will give us the pick this year.

  7. LOSER Leafs LOSE! :lol:

  8. imo, players should also carry some risk for their futures.

    say a player gets an 8x8 contract

    ..their base salary should be 5 mil with bonuses to take it 8 mil.

    then if their skill decline, so should their bonus money.

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      In the NFL the player's contract is not guaranteed, which is why they get huge bonuses up front.  The contract can be terminated at any time.  It should be like that in every sport.  That's how it is in life...

  9. McCann 11th in even-strength goal scoring, one spot ahead of Crosby. Thanks Benning.

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Isn't McCann on his 4th team now?  Like who cares at this point...

  10. I hope the Sharks trade Karlsson to a contender, man is up to 69 points in 52 games now. I wanna see him hit 100. 

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      So San Jose will retain $5 million?  Which contender then has $6.5 million for Karlsson for the next 4 years and what do they need to give up?

      If San Jose trades both Meier and Karlsson they will finish in last place.  I wonder how much retention they will need to do for Karlsson?  $3 million?  $4 million?

  12. Trouba ran like 3 Flames today :lol:

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Hits are overrated around here though.  Trouba literally changed the entire game for the Rangers...

  13. Would Carlsson or Fantilli be able to contribute in the NHL year one? I could see canucks finishing as low as 3 if the tank goes well.

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Fantilli is on pace to have better numbers than Jack Eichel in his draft year.  Also, he is already 18 and is almost one year older than Bedard.  He will be 19 by the time next season starts.  He will be in the NHL on day one, same as Bedard.  I think they will be the only two to play in the NHL next season.  Carlsson will stay in the SHL for one more year...

  14. if PA can move OEL and myers, he'll correct JB's mistakes and if they move JT's contract, they will correct theirs.

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      We can move Myers in the summer.  Probably have to retain so not to give up an asset.  OEL I think will be bought out.  They will not be trading Miller.  he has value in the top 6 as a PPG guy...

    2. (See 3 other replies to this status update)

  15. Bedard failed to record a point for the first time in 35 WHL games. 44 goals and 90 points over that span. What a bum.

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      He'll drop out of the top 10.  Maybe we snag him with the Islanders pick...

  16. has vancouver called up 2 players from abby or are they moving burroughs and stillman up to the forward lines?

  17. lets move on.

  18. If we do somehow win the 1st OA - imagine this team with Petey and Bedard down the middle.

    --

    Horvat, Schenn, Kuzmenko, Garland, Boeser probably traded in the off season.

     

    -

    Myers could be traded after July 1 (post bonus). Miller may be moveable in the off season when teams have cap .

    --

    We would have 20M+ in space to get 2 RHD, a 3C and bottom 6 wingers

     

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      I agree with Joe.  I don't want this team to go all in on Bedard and have nothing left.  We need to fix the defence.

  19. Sounds like Petey wants out of Vancouver 

  20. #HireAV

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Could be.  We could hire him as coach and offer him an AGM job afterwards.  We have 14 AGM's already so what's one more really.

  21. Stealth is our hero...guy's a genius.

    I thought I was banned for a minute (for real).

    1. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      Meh, if they ban Petey might as well shut the whole site down.  I was never worried really...   ^_^
