I want a refund!

Short sighted move not unlike one of Jim Benning's specials when he dealt away 1st round picks like candy. Now we know why he lasted so long as GM.

oldnews is older than dirt. He was there when the Millionaires won the Cup.

Anti-melmacian posts if which I plead guilty. Alf keeps taking my Scotch! Buy your own booze Alf!

Trust me, I've done some really stupid things in my life. Ain't proud of it but I do acknowledge I'm human.

I'm "the player to be named later".

Kind of like the "smart people" who designed/marketed this: Though I will admit, those old "V"s did kind of grow on me.

You know what the *REALLY* #$%@#%#$5 thing about this? Finally after *YEARS* of the team basically going in circles; we have a management team that looks like they have a logical plan. Now every decision might not work out but you can at least understand why they went that way. You can really see the light at the end of the tunnel. And its not a mirage.

My last video post (in regards to the forum closure):

Shows you just how hard it was back in the 6 team league to break-in. I might laugh at the Bruins expense about how they traded away then prospect goalie Ken Dryden to the Habs for two nobodies but there were only so many roster spots in those days (even if you include the farm clubs).

Orland Kurtanback (sp?). In the mold of Ted Lindsay imho (not saying he was as good obviously). Problem was Orland didn't have Howe (among others) as a teammate

I can't help but think the coaching of Willie & Travis told Myers (and Gudbranson) to 'turn the other cheek' rather than 'return the receipt' (eg., retaliate for cheapshots to Canuck players). But that's just speculation on my part.

[Report] Canucks name Quinn Hughes as captain
NewbieCanuckFan replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Was a hole *with* Horvat. While I don't think sucked handling defensive duties, neither was he great either. Team simply has not replaced that ability since Sutter was no longer on the roster. I think the team can handle either Miller or EP going down (not saying it wouldn't hurt...like alot). Problem is if Hughes goes down (imho) or Demko. -

I couldn't see Kesler as a "C" (though he never took a night off even when a playoff spot was already clinched). Bieksa I think had the right temperament to be a "C". But that is just my opinion. -

Likely to be the best defenseman in Canucks history not C material?
