  1. Isn't Houston the 8th largest? Add in Dallas's and has to be one of the largest in the US and a great rivalry too.
  2. OMG love it - my sister does needle point. Think i found her next project haha
  3. As the topic says what did Santa or loved ones bring you for Christmas that allows you to represent your Canucks for 2022!!! My youngest got me this (Thatcher Demko player designed hat) - GOING to love wearing it to work here in Edmonton haha GO CANUCKS GO
  4. personally they should put the damn Olympics on hold - seems reckless to have this event when the new variant is running rampant.
  5. Got my booster this morning - triple Pfizered lol Was planning to come see my mom, dad and kids after Christmas but with the new variant will stay home and have an Al Bundy staycation:
  6. i too would love Rutherford to find a way to grab Schneider however the reasons you noted with Hoglander are the exact reason i wouldn't trade him. Not sure we have what the Rangers want to allow us to snag him
  7. Neither - rather have Dobson if we are making a deal for a young D
  8. Was listening to the end of the game and the post game on Sirius and its was the San Jose broadcast and they thought he played a great game - 6 hits and 4 blocked shots - not sure what more you ask from a 3rd line D man
  9. Just booked my booster shot (Pfizer) here in Albertabama
  10. Have to say Pods and Hogs had a great game last night - these kids wanna play!!!
  11. Damn - Bruce says the goal is to win the week and bam!! - boys go out and do that for him. Love how this guy breaks things up into small goals not the typical we have to win 45 of the next 60 games etc. That's coaching!!!

      All about making sure the expectations seem attainable to the players.  Hit enough of these small goals and the big picture takes care of itself.  Perfect coach for this team.

      Bruce is all about changing behaviour, and a long-time strategy for behaviourists wanting to change behaviour is to give the subject short term, attainable goals with high feedback and accentuation of the positives. Nobody ever got better being told how bad they were. Bruce is one example of how experience and wisdom trumps youthful exuberance and impulsiveness. He seems to have all the answers because he's seen all of this before and knows the plot, the dialogue and the steps needed to pull out of this season-long slump.

  12. I have been thinking about this since the Canucks signed Boudreau and now Rutherford - which direction do they take? Guys coming up for contracts in the next year or so: Boeser JT Miller Horvat I don't see them having room for all three and currently the top 9 looks like this: ( not necessarily what line they play on but depth wise) Boeser Petey Miller Garland Horvat Pearson Podz Dickinson Hoglander Personally in the next year or so I think Podz might be top six and hell even Hogs cause the kid plays bigger than his size (Josh Morrissey can confirm this :P) So who is the expendable one if you are Rutherford and might bring back the best haul? Bo and JT are both the type of players you win cups with - I love Brock but that new contract might not work and while I understand those who want to trade Miller he has contract certainty for another year - same with Bo. If next year we aren't where we need to be we move him and sign Bo. So for me that begs the question - what do we want back from a trade of Boeser - my first choice is a RD as I think Garland will replace his goal scoring along with Podkolzin/Hoglander. So CDC your thoughts on if I am out to lunch on this and what would you do or if you agree who do we trade Brock for?
  13. Just going to say - Luke Schenn played like a BOSS tonight - hate Benning all you want but a solid signing!!
  14. What I love about Bruce is they way he looks at things - he talks about winning the week and how we are 9 points out and just need to gain a point a week. That's called coaching folks!!
  15. Officiating tonight was a joke - had to find a way to see the game online thanks to the Sportsnet blackout - that Garland goal was Filthy!!! F_I_L_T_H_Y
  16. And then he would put another team in Arizona - cause you know - it's a hockey hotspot
  17. Well at the least guess it saves the taxpayer some money sending a bunch of suits to watch events we couldn't afford to go see these days
  18. As I have said before I think Travis did a great job developing the young talent on this team but lacks the skill to push them to the next level - he was an AHL coach in an NHL town. He will bounce back as an assistant or associate coach somewhere just thankfully not here
