  1. What is everyone's favorite Horvat Canucks moment?

  2. OK, had the TV muted and the music cranked but saw Bedard and the Sedins. What did I miss?

      Bedard's so good that they let him draft the Canucks as his team.

  3. I think a player we should try to target is Wade Allison from Philly.

  4. Do a rebuild, and while we're at it go back to the skate jersey. The Sabres have won all 5 games of theirs with the goathead jersey, scoring 6 in each. Granted they have a pretty good team over there, this is what Dahlin thinks of the jersey's psychological effect:

      Buffalo needs to go back to those jerseys full time.

  5. SHOCKING NEWS: After finally winning the draft lottery, the Vancouver Canucks make their first ever 1st overall pick, and GM Allvin has selected fellow countryman Leo Carlsson.  Chicago Blackhawks select Connor Bedard 2nd overall.

  6. I’m really not sure what it would take for it to happen, but just think about having Pettersson and Bedard as our center core for the next 10-15 years…

  11. So Benning aparently could have avoided Luongo's Cap recapture penalty as Florida had offered Luongo back to Vancouver and they declined they could of kept Luongo on the LTIR for the rest of his contract.

    1. Chickenspear

      Chickenspear

      So, why couldn't Luongo have gone on LTIR in Florida? Why was it on us to take the contract and put him on LTIR?

       

      From the bottom of @Drive-By Body Pierce 's link:

       

      “Sure, he retired and he hit the team with a cap recapture penalty. But that was also the circumstance he found himself in. He essentially was squeezed out by Florida,” Shah said.
      “[The Panthers] said ‘You’re either retiring or we’re making your life miserable’ essentially, and ‘you want to work in our front office afterwards?’ It’s kind of what you have to do.”

       

      How is this kind of player management allowed by the league?

  12. CDC seems to have selective hatred for other teams and players.  Alf hates all non Canucks.  Who joins Alf (one eye) in proper hatred?  spacer.png

     

  13. should mogilny go into the ring of honour?

    1. Chickenspear

      Chickenspear

      Eddy, for sure should be in, and I'd also say Juice should be in the ring above Kes and Salo. Can't really find the words to explain it, but he's made more of a longstanding impact for me than 17 and 6, plus he signed the 1 day to retire a Canuck. He's never really left the city.

       

      I wouldn't be surprised if they signed Eddy to a 1 day when he's finally ready to hang them up. Maybe they go in the ring together.

  14. Have the Blues lost 7 in a row?  Could we make a deal with them?  Miller for Paryako? 

  15. Does anyone know how to remove the clock on the stove/not make the time show? When I look at the clock, it makes me focused on time and I’m trying to get away from that.  I’ve pressed “clock” and nothing happens after that.

      If it makes you feel any better, my oven clock is a 24 hour display that you can't change to 12, and it gains ~1min/week...

      @brilac Yeah, but with a whole slice of toast, you can just fold it in half and make breakfast 'tacos'. :)

  20. Alf finds it annoying coming to our Canucks’ home board and seeing posts loving other teams and their players.  Alf hates that.  Alf hates other teams and their players.  Except for Mitchell Marner.  He’s lovably good. 

  21. Whats worse, losing picks or having to carry dead cap?

    1. Chickenspear

      Chickenspear

      It's really more of a situational judgement call. Like, what pick(s) are you giving up to dump $x? Is there any return? What is the trajectory of your team? Will the picks project to be late/mid/early in the rounds of this/next year? What's the draft class looking like?

       

      I just think there's too many factors to make a blanket answer either way.
