  1. Marner IMO. He has 12 minutes in penalties in his playoff career. One tripping call and, countem’, FIVE puck over glass penalties! So far he had been a total no-show.
  2. They must have been impressed and a little jealous of the 2500 in Montreal. Probably looking for anything possible to ward off another playoff bellyflop.
  3. That’s just embarrassing. How can he expect anyone to ever take him seriously again!
  4. Someone from JetsNation wrote a pretty decent piece on what he figured it would take to re-sign Copp. Using lots of comparable his conclusion was 4 years @ 3.5 per. I really like the player, good skater, one of their better defensive forwards, and pretty good numbers offensively. I’d do it at those numbers if we have the cap space. One small correction - he scored 4 against us! IDK if this link will work but it’s a good read on him if it does. jetsnation.ca/2021/04/08/call-the-copp-predicting-andrews
  5. Two headlines further to your point...this first one is a story very much in the news locally. The second is widespread across Canada. I’ll only post the headlines since we are here in this thread.

  6. I said Avs in 5, so I think he’ll steal one. Does anyone know about the ice in Colorado? I know talent is the main difference but I was so impressed with all the quick clean passes. In our games the puck always seems to be bouncing around and rarely see two good passes in a row.
  7. Oh of course! Sorry I misread your post and thought you meant they were starting Lehner again...
  8. I can’t say I’ve seen him play like that, he’s just a big solid hitter as far as I know.
  9. Yes it is but only slightly. I think he said he wasn’t against the hit but if you do make that hit then you better be prepared for what follows. I know I’m paraphrasing but I think that’s close. Don’t misunderstand, I’m not absolving Reaves of anything. I think he should be suspended for the knee on the head. I don’t think the commentators were saying you can’t make that hit either, at least no more than Juice was.
  10. They were basically quoting our beloved Juice from the second intermission so....if it’s BS commentating then it follows that it is BS from Bieksa also. They refer to what he said twice in this clip but if once is enough for you it’s very close to the beginning.
  11. We’ll that’s exactly what Juice warned between periods. He said he wasn’t against the hit but he really shouldn’t have done it with the score being what it was.
  12. I don’t know much about Gary Galley but I’m liking what I hear from him in this game.
  13. If you want to have a discussion about who the best player in the game is MacKinnon shows why you need to look at the whole package. He dominates all around the ice.
  14. I posted that in response to you asking someone to show you something that he had posted that was political. I place no importance to it. I will say again that the team cut ties with Mark Donnelly because his personal opinions didn’t align with that of the team. With that in mind I think that the Canucks would be wise to consider giving up a treasure trove of assets and an expensive long-term commitment and then being faced with the possibility of having to make the same sort of decisions all over again. Player’s personal opinions are just that until they make them public. When it effects the team it can become a problem. And for the record SJ has tweeted & retweeted lots of good community related stuff as well.
  15. It’s a little more than just that though. Don’t overlook the last part.
  16. Nope, not at all. So long as his views don’t overshadow the interests of the team. If he felt the need to advertise that he was anti-mask or an anti-vaxxer I’m sure the team would feel differently though.
