  1. As a Canuck fan - great term and signing for the Spoilers
  2. At that cost - it was never about Vancouver rather business with Eddy - good for him and all the best. Time for the team to have a new identity
  3. How about Graves and Cernak both were nobodies with there originally team until they got to there new teams; or Schmidt in Vegas vs Vancouver. My point: we are only speculating based on the past and if he clicks with the staff - then he might be a solid add; time will tell. Secondly, coaching is the other side of the equation when trying build a roster - I am more critical of the staff and there ability to put it altogether but Shaws’ addition has me hopeful (based on his reputation as a defensive coach & developing defencemen) I get it and give it a season but it seems like you had made up your mind in regards to JB long before today.
  4. Plus Dickenson; Nucks spending to the cap again and do they hate cap flexibility ?
  5. Let see this d core a season with Shaw and if Baumer was still the d coach - I would agree. Coaching is the other part of the equation in creating a successful team
  6. Imo and given his 6 years of underwhelming performance - this contract is well earned & deserved.
  7. Probably a prove me opportunity for a local kid - age 26. Perhaps under Shaws’ he can develope into a regular NHL’er.
  8. Was he regularly paired with Frobert or as the forum calls him Fartboy; so no more turd pairing for the Jets ? Good value and cap for a player at his stage of the career & age. JB 2.0
  9. All the mistakes and everything that comes with it - is perhaps having the positive effect on JBs’ development as a GM. Good value and term for a 30+ year old player that has bought, what JB is doing.
  10. When is puck drop and I wonder how he will look under Shaws’ tutelage ? Good value and term.
  11. We can only speculate; and good chance, some rumour will come out to the reason(s) why - just a matter of time cause everyone knows a blabber mouth
  12. Yeah, something finally clicked with JB (?). So far, good value and no term for players over 30+. edited
  13. Yeah, I did notice the extra effort he was putting on every shift; and I surmise, that he was playing for a contract. Moving forward, JB should stick to signing him to 1 yr deals, given his past history (imo).
  14. During his six years with the Nucks he has missed a good percentage of games due to injury (somewhat skeptical about his off ice training & prep); and I liked him prior to the deal and during the deal (from my POV), he was coasting on & off the ice (as indicated by the gaffes he wasn’t suppose to be making on the ice given his reputation as a defensive minded forward). This one year deal is his true value and the contract he deserves after six years of .... - well earned !
  15. Good chance cause he will be playing for a contract; unless, his last deal was enough and he can just play his game
  16. At the cost, it is a good signing for a known commodity. JB is on a roll - can Green deliver ? After SIX years of foundational performance OFF THE ICE - this contract is well earned & deserved.
  17. With the re vamp roster and Shaw’s addition - I wonder if McD & Draist will still be padding there stats when they play against the Canucks. Perhaps this time it will the Canucks padding there stats against them ?
  18. I am very much the same and I only tuned in during the important dates or when something happens ; otherwise, I would rather get my news through the internet and go on various blogs to engage my fellow fans. Sometimes some of the pundits come across in a very lecturing manner and it is unbearable.
  19. Sutter in Abby to start his coaching journey by mentoring the youths. He doesn’t fit in this roster anymore plus in six years he was pretty much non existent on the ice due to his injuries.
  20. Drance & Dhaliwal - an agents tool (imo). Preferably, they pass on an injury prone Sutter and Ham on a 1yr cheap deal
