You're correct Mr.Towel, he wasn't traded- he was NOT re-signed. Does that make any difference as to him no longer playing w us? No it doesn't. Enjoy praying Demko is anything close to Mark's. You should be a lawyer lol. You are missing the point, that's why you're just a towel boy.

Love story? Are you and Benning dating? That wouldn't surprise me as he often makes poor decisions.

We let him go! It doesn't matter if he was traded or not resigned! Typical Canucks fans who don't get the point, are we still rebuilding too? lol

Same thing, we could've kept him if we wanted to, don't make it complicated and stick to the point that we didn't keep an all-star goalie that played his heart out every game! What else can u ask for from a player?

Markstrom got us to the playoffs after 6 long years and what do we do? We trade him! God help me, there are too many armchair athletes in Vancouver who don't remember Mark's thousands of highlight reel saves.

Well well well, do people still think Markstrom should have been let go? The best goalie we've ever had who stood on his head to make a save wasn't resigned for some stupid reason. Why does Canuck mgmt. not hold onto the hardest playing members of the team? The harder you play, the more likely u r to be traded (Markstrom, Tanev, Stetcher,...). It seems like mgmt. respects players without grit, and sacrifice like Linden, Myers, Ericson, Virtanen,... who float around and don't impact the game. Losing faith in the team fast, even with all the talent, it's nothing without players who will sacrifice! Too many posers on the team, as usual.

Until the Canucks get a real tough guy like Odjick, Brashear,...other teams will continue to take liberties on our star Elias. I hope it's before Elias is taken out seriously like last year when he was slammed down to the ice, the Canucks first priority should be to get tougher! the playoffs will be all about this, too much fancy playing and not near enuf retribution. Suggestions: 1) Bench Ericsson for good (he only floats around and scores if there's an empty net and won't even try to hit the opponent) 2) Myers should use his size to move the opponnents' offense from the front of the net and to lay crushing checks, he plays like he's not allowed to hit! 3) Virtanen should stop trying to be fancy and giving the puck up more than he should to the opp'n, this gives the opposition many chances they should not get
