  1. Blame Gillis for acquiring that extra 5th round pick which Benning used to draft Gaudette. See! Gillis is the root of all our problems if you just look hard enough.
  2. Seriously though...ain't that how it actually works. Canucks have no business being in this game but catch a lucky break & score a goal.
  3. Can't you get ahold of Luca Brasi? I heard he helped Vito Corleone get some contracts signed.
  4. I keep trying to ignore this "NewbieCanuckFan" idiot. But whenever I try, I get the message "you are unable to ignore yourself".
  5. Probably one of the reasons why Forsling had so much trouble breaking into that lineup. He's at least now cheap taxi squad material for the Panthers (getting some action in at the NHL level).
  6. So has Demko but the sophomore still held strong. I expected that from a veteran.
  7. That's what my mom keeps saying to me as to her biggest regret (not taking the pill while looking directly at me).
  8. Just have to be patient with respect to acquiring a legit vet D. Opportunities will come like the Schmidt trade. Don’t force one like the Gudbranson trade. Not only will the price be cheap (gave up next to nothing for Schmidt) but you’ll just as likely get a far superior player (which Schmidt is...I think of him as a healthier Salo type. Good both offensively and defensively).
  9. D’s usually take a while to develop. Even a phenom like Hughes still needs to work in his defensive game. Rarely are they able to step in and be effective with or without the puck like Edler.
  10. Well it would’ve been exposed last season if not for the Vezina caliber goaltending from both Marky and Demko (hid slot of flaws).
  11. Ferland might have value in such a case since I think insurance covers the cost of his contract & a cap floor team might be interested in such a contract.
  12. The legendary former Canuck - David Bruce. Two first names AND both two syllables or less words.
  13. Despite change in coaches, the defensive system implemented by Claude Julian is still ingrained on that team I would think.
  14. Why would they even consider taking him? To hit the cap floor? Look at their owners. They won't be shopping at Superstore anytime soon.
