  1. End of an era. Later haters.

  2. Really happy for Alex Burrows. Even though he couldn't get the cup as a player, I really hope he gets it as a coach.

      This. This would be so sweet!

      It would be so awesome...I'd love him to hoist a cup.

  3. Jordie Benn playing over Juolevi is a war crime.

      Juolevi and MacEwen not being regular players on our team is a crime against humanity.

      Completely agree.   
       

      I really don’t understand why Juolevi and MacEwen aren’t being dressed.

      maybe didnt wanna mess up the hughes and benn pairing, i though that hamonic actually had a decent game coming back, but OJs been great also so kinda confusing.

  5. The Vancouver Canucks are very proud to select from the Nottingham Panthers, Peter Chiarelli.

  6. Hughes, Pettersson and Boeser on that first powerplay unit. My god...

      Canucks are going to start becoming dangerous in 2020.

      Add Horvat for face-offs. And Jake for net presence.

    3. Brad Marchand

      Gives the team the flexibility to have Hughes and Juolevi anchor two separate powerplay units.

  7. For all the people who were upset when we gave up Sbisa, this is why he was dropped. Just cost Vegas the game, and the cup.

      I wouldn't say 'upset' but some would have preferred it be a F. 

  8. Jim Benning must have been a great partner to have in school. Considering how much he loves his projects.

      @Coconuts exactly. Sure Vey was a dud, but Pouliot could end up being a solid player. He's only got 130 NHL games so far, if he had a few less giveaways this season it would be nice but he seems to be developing a lot more confidence and I think we'll see a lot of improvement from him next season.

      A project is still a free asset when it's attained via a trade for someone we signed as a free agent.

      When your bad and don't have ready prospects to fill the roles you need to get creative.

  9. Canucks fans are so obsessed with the size of hockey players these days. It's like that kid who becomes obsessed over the gym just because he got bullied once in elementary school.

      Skill and mental toughness wins championships, not size!

  10. If the Canucks keep picking up Benning and Weisbrod's boys, the next Canucks will be Khokhlachev.

  11. You often don't get second chances. The Canucks didn't get William, but they can draft Alexander Nylander in 2016. Get er done Benning.

      they're just angry they lost their precious Bieksa and Lack

  15. So now the question that's on nobodies minds. Who the hell won the Kassian/Hodgson trade?

      Hodgson. The guy's getting buyout money on top of his current contract.

      Both teams shafted each other.

  17. Really wish we'd drafted Luca Sbisa.

  20. Hodgson complains about ice time and he's a daddy's boy. Kassian complains about ice-time and he's a martyr. This is why I love CDC.

      People are missing the point. He has skill. He's lazy. And then he gripes when his ice time is cut.

      Hodgson never aired any of his alleged issues in the media before ,during or after his tenure as a Canuck.

      Sadly,Zach has become a media distraction because he has no idea what is required of him as a professional.

    4. Mike Vanderhoek

      Mike Vanderhoek

      this is my point, Vancouver is fighting for a Playoff spot, yes Kassian has skill, yes he can be lazy and not play with enough emotion/edge. But he is far more skilled than other options out there bringing just as much to the table. It's not the time for the coach to be making this point, he DOES know what he has to this point and needs to use it, not sit it.

  21. That Bure/Naslund hybrid is the perfect comparison for Ehlers.

      No prospects even come close to Bure. He was explosive and had a unique strut that was only matched by Orr (could be why they had knee problems though).

  22. Random Hypothetical- Would you shell out $12 million+ a year for Toews and/or Kane if they hit free agency in 2015?

      Easily. Sedins make $7 mill each to compare.

      Not to Kane, but I'd give Toews that. Ton of cash.

  23. Canucks are 0-4 since the Dale Weise trade. Coincidence, I think not.

      I miss Weise now I just want Alberts in the lineup soon

      i wonder if Weise will get the Torres treatment in 3 years, when half of CDC thinks the GM should make a push to get him back.

    4. Brad Marchand

      ^ Maybe if he could actually hit.

  24. First All-Nighter of the Semester. Fun.
