[Signing] Canucks sign Dakota Joshua
Gawdzukes replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I agree on the idea 100% I just think there is about 1% chance they would actually do that. -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks

Wow, you're such a joy. Sorry for trying to add honest content to the forum. Go ahead perfect human. I don't need this crap. -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
Gawdzukes replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
No probably not. I agree it's more about the current landscape. I guess new management got me excited which is the highlight over the last 3 years for myself. I was just hoping we might at least see the light at the end of the tunnel but alas ... -

Not exactly the (big moves) changes I was looking for. A couple decent players but does nothing to fix our (problem) defence unless Mikeyhev is dressing as a RD. -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
Gawdzukes replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I guess mainly for myself it was based off what management said over and over again when hired. This is not a great team, not a horrible team but major changes are needed (which I totally agreed with), and big decisions will be made that may be tough on fans. They definitely left me with the impression something (anything) would have happened by now. I think JR has even confirmed he didn't think it would take this long to sort some things out. I always felt a JT re-signing was not going to happen, even days after we traded for him I knew his next contract would be a stretch at his age and our timeline ... and I was fine with that. I didn't need an earth shattering return on him (although hoped for something decent for sure) just a sign that we're finally making calculated decisions. Still in purgatory here lol. As far as Miller yeah he picked the worst time to be looking for a huge payday contract both for himself and for our Canucks. -

Or maybe he's trying to shut down the constant speculation and negative press letting all fans know to relax he will be traded eventually. I don't know if I speak for the majority but I've felt a shift amongst those like myself who are looking for change in the organization. I've gone from mildly engaged to vividly enthralled to now feeling ripped off and somewhat bored with the whole situation after watching other teams make big moves while we stand still weeks after free agency. I mean I'm a sucker and I'll watch no matter what but I wouldn't blame a more casual fan for completely tuning out at this point either. Maybe JR underestimated just how long a Canadian fanbase can be fixated on summer hockey news. -
[Signing] Ducks sign Olli Juolevi
Gawdzukes replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I didn't like the pick but simply because this kid had zero understanding of how to position himself in front of the net to cover other players. Wrong place at every step almost like he didn't want to cover anyone and would find tricky ways to leave them unattended/or someone else's responsibility. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Tucker Poolman
Gawdzukes replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Dickinson is an absolute failure at Center. Hopefully he finds some utility on the wing but ... we have so many ... although he is purely there in a defensive role so that may help him find a spot. -

I have a feeling he'll bounce back. Wasn't he out with fatigue and stuff similar to Sutter but he came back? I wouldn't count Captain Goofball out. -

Gawdzukes replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
In my mind that's the biggest thing we need to concentrate on moving forward. We need to have multiple prospects coming up in the system or like you say we are paying out of the nose plus not quite getting what we need. -

I remember when this was just a young storyline 3 or 4 hundred pages old. So innocent in it's hopes and dreams with young Schneider's and Sanheim's in it's eyes. It was such a romantic time. An endless struggle between hope and desperation. A fairytale for the ages. -

[Rumour] John Klingberg waiting on Canucks to make a move
Gawdzukes replied to Mikey87's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
This is blind optimism imo. Vegas will for sure be way better and I would say almost guaranteed to finish ahead of us. Dallas is always good and will remain a well coached team. LA is better with Fiala plus natural progression. Nashville is far better. With the current roster the Canucks will be in a dogfight to make the playoffs all year and they won't be getting a coaching bump this year. In fact the pressure will be massive out of the gate. P.S. When it actually mattered ... over the 82 game schedule the Canucks were .561. I think it's pretty telling when fans only choose the parts of the schedule to use where they win games. I mean any fan can predict their team will be in the playoffs with that system. -

Without an arshole you couldn't get rid of floaters like Loui, Roussel, and Beags though. -

So no one really knows. It's all media speculation. -
Drance is an utter clown and a slimy dbag. It's a sign of how sports media has simply gone into the tube as a profession with the addition of social media. Any clown can just make up bs or hateful rubbish and post it somewhere now. People just eat this garbage up nowadays. There is actually a couple people on this board who think he's some hockey god of knowledge. I doubt he even knows how to hold a hockey stick.

My bad. I think you're way over optimistic on this team though. It's going to be a large task for BB to get these guys all playing in the right spots and firing on all cylinders out of the gate. -

Yep, people dream of this stuff every year and then reality comes along. Chances are more likely there are problems with reaching these goals. Pearson getting 20 is highly unlikely as is Podz in his sophomore year. Kuzmenko getting 20 is just purely living in dreamland. If that all happens we'll likely be Conference Champs. Yeah that stuff ain't happening. Lol -

[Signing] Devils re-sign Jonas Siegenthaler

Well offence and leadership obviously. Doubtful but not completely unreasonable or anything.
