  1. Just a humble reminder. I know Hughes had a down year, but he has a lot to learn on the defensive side of the puck to be considered as a #1 defenceman in this league.
  2. Not bad... gonna go take a nap now...
  3. Heckuva guy. Classy as they come. I met him years ago and he was as patient and down to Earth as they come when it came to fans and especially children. I've got nothing but the utmost respect for Larionov.
  4. Wait... so the best thing to do to cool down is to lick salt while drinking microwaved soda or sports drinks in a hot tub? Ok... here goes nothing........
  5. Ok, so now we have our Swedish Gretzky (Petey), Russian Messier, American Coffey (Hughes), and American Kurri (Boeser).
  6. I guess the question is "If someone offered you $41M to live in Edmonton for the next 8 years, would you do it?" The funny thing is, I dunno if I actually would lmao.... sure it's a ton of money, but living in Edmonton .... ugh....
  7. And then for whatever damn reason he will regress and only be effective on the PK and scoring empty net goals.
  8. Man, would love if the Canucks were able to clear cap room for Jaden Schwartz Tarasenko may have peaked already... but if he were added to a contender's 2nd line, that would be menacing.
  9. Foegele would be a nice addiition. Good size and skill. Probably wouldn't be a big cap hit either. Maybe $3M AAV? I think the ship has sailed for Arvidsson though... 5'9" forward turning 29 soon, and $4.25M cap hit ... no thank you.
  10. Colorado is sure to be calling NJ about this... they have to move one of their good, young defencemen anyways. Why not package one for 4th OA and pick another blue chip prospect.
  11. Nugent Hopkins is a good player, it was just his current AAV was too high for what he brings. At $5M AAV he is a good value player.
  12. I'm starting to feel like I should rename this to the "Canucks vehicle and automobile accident thread" ....
  13. Got my 2nd dose of Pfizer yesterday and am a bit concerned. I'm starting to be developing what I can only explain as a mild form of X-ray vision. I'm starting to be able to see through people's clothing... it has me alarmed.
  14. Here's another one: "Can someone enlighten me on why people are so high on Glass (sounds like a Breaking Bad line or something lol). From what I've seen of him, there's zero creativity in his game. Watching his highlights reminds me of how I felt about Virtanen. Receiving passes from teammates in perfect scoring positions is fine, but I saw next to nothing in terms of him creating plays on his own. Vilardi and Mittlestadt are far superior in that respect. I'd argue that Mittlestadt looks to be the most skilled out of the bunch." I was really keen on Mittlestadt, glad GMJB knew better lol. I didn't and still don't see much in Glass, so wasn't too concerned about him being selected before the Canucks.
  15. Even if he was, I wouldn't wish this on anyone. The pain he and his wife are probably going through right now is unimaginable.
  16. Sad that the guy has terminal cancer now
  17. Thought it would be fun to have a thread regarding our prospects, and other prospects that have developed over the years, to see what we thought of them when they were truly just prospects. Simply goto your profile and look up your old activity (See My Activity), and find Forum Posts. Here's one of mine... my thoughts on Virtanen back in 2016/17: "Exactly. I'm actually curious what some of you Virtanen supporters are thinking in terms of where he'll end up in his career? Personally, I'm with Timberwolf... 3rd line player that can hit hard and chip in goals. I see his peak season being about 20 goals, but consistently a 10-15 goal scorer. " Looks to be about right now lol
  18. Do we expect her to say "oh yeah! I totally enjoyed my adultery journey with him."
  19. Yeah forecast for Mission is 45degC on Monday. No AC in schools either.
