  1. Agree, with most that Boeser has regressed, alot. Hopefully, by playing him top 3/6 minutes he can bring up his trade value - but he is an offensively, soft player based on the games I had seen, which means he doesn't offer much, if he isnt scoring
  2. Yeah, he seems to think he knows how to win, a Cup.
  3. Is the issue(s), in the locker room or with the FO & Francesco..
  4. Boudreau, knows and understands that his time will come, as well. Based on last years, pressers.
  5. Same: Cull reminds me of, Green since he was a JB hire. Just wondering, if their is any locker room drama going on that, is affecting the team ?
  6. Yeah, the loss of Walker and Shaw were significant cause we had seen this roster and how they play under a coach, they don't want to play for.
  7. Well said and I got the samething from his interviews. Hopefully, with Cammi in the FO, they can tie what Francesco & JB created ???
  8. I did say: that DESPITE the Sedins production a retool, was not the right choice cause (imo) after that core went stale, Gillis had nothing to transitioned to. You said, it in your post that the team was still able, to get a presidents trophy and it has been downhill, eversince due to the constant retooling vs drafting & developing. With hindsight, it seems obvious that Aquaman was never going, to allow his FO's to truly rebuild and without his full cooperation his FO's will always be handcuffed to JUST chase a playoff spot, instead of patiently building a contender. A similar finish to last year, will only further entrenched their status, in NHL Purgatory: STILL capped out, with a weak prospect pool; and I would still argue, this current roster is starting to get stale, with no notable accomplishment(s) - but a mini streak, ever so often during the season should appease most. For this season, both the playoffs and Bedard are looking like dream scenarios. I believe JR, knows what the team needs to do but he doesn't seem to have an owner that understands. Same JB & Aquaman roster, with the same flaws & strengths.
  9. Roster is stale and it is time to sell - imo. This is looking like the years, after the 2011 cup run and with hindsight, a retool was the wrong choice, despite the Sedins' productivity. Anyways, I am just not expecting alot from the same JB & Aquman roster and the new FO, is STILL capped out with a weak prospect pool - so not alot of options, right now.
  10. The Canucks D core, is badly in need of a RHD that will allow the Canucks, to move Myers down from the top pair; and Juulsen can fill that hole based on his physical attributes - but he hasn't, for whatever reason(s) ? All the points you had stated are just excuses cause what he is going through, is nothing new - either he will be the next OJ or at the very least, a Burroughs' type with size. I like Burroughs cause he has heart and he is supplementing what he lacks, in physical attributes with his off ice preparations cause it shows he is trying to make every minute he gets count. The labeling & shaming from posters like yourself, is childish and tiresome. Whatever, happened to just making a point ?
  11. Who spent & created the current roster ? Mickey Mouse ?
  12. Another JV, type player that is lazy: with the off ice preparations
  13. LHD and this rumour, is no different from JBs love affair, with acquiring OEL. The cost and cap space, is so prohibitive that the team, will not be any better - but their will be a new toy, in the line up. HARD PASS, for me - unless, OEL is going back
  14. Don't expect too much from Juulsen cuase he will earn, his bus ride back.
  15. Poolman will be the last, of the JB signing that will go to LTIR, when Ferlands' contract runs out. I wish him all the best. Perhaps, in three years he makes a comeback with another team but right now, he has a chance to get better...
  16. Not sure, why this guy can't stick in the NHL - is it all mental and/or just bad luck with injuries ? Maybe, just like Woo they are both slowly becoming, a waste of time - even to themselves.
