  1. There isn't some grand conspiracy in the NHL. However: Some refs at an individual level are biased. When an allegedly professional ref is clearly seen saying "that guy's being an a$$hole". That is not professional, all it does is reveal his bias. Devorski should be kept away from the Canucks for two seasons, at least, and out of the playoffs, over his over the top behavior from recent days.
  2. The term in statistics is called Confirmation Bias.
  3. Strip Hank of the C. Bench Sleepmode. Send 4/6 of the D to the AHL. This team is floundering.
  4. Shatter this heartless 'core'.
  5. The guy is intermittently decent, on a 4.25mill cap hit. Thats what up with him. Nothing more to see here other than, he is done in Vancouver, and almost likely the NHL. Kyle Wellwood says hi.
  6. The Canucks' 'window' was actually a crack in the bandwagon hastily covered with Saran Wrap. Sorry, fans.
  7. Chris Diggins is a utility forward. He can play many roles. Yes, I said Diggins. Cuz that's what he does.
  8. I see Zach as a Raffi Torres type of potential. Strong in straight short lines, and pots the occassional wtf goal.
  9. Who cares about outshooting the opponent, when 98% of those shots are weak perimeter gimmes. This team needs a wake up call. But with 10 NTC's what do you do?
  10. Not so sure on the New Age rosy smiley approach. This is what got us here. Sometimes you need someone to call a spade a spade.
  11. How does he have the highest +/- (D) on the team then?
  12. I hope this thread is around in 3 years.
  13. What experience? He is really good at missing the playoffs. What leadership? Just look at all of the former leafs around the league tearing it up.. err nm. Name a single player mentored by Sundin who has gone on to do amazing things.
  14. The entire reason for going after Sundin is his alleged 'class' and 'leadership ability'. Well I may not be the first to say this, and some of you might not like to hear this, but: Mats Sundin has shown NO class to Canucks fans by putting us in this position of uncertain anxiety. It is ridiculous for him to not have made up his mind at the free agency deadline. He had several months to mull over his future before July 1st. He has essentially taken the entire Canucks team and fan base emotionally hostage. As far as his leadership ability goes, just what does this stunt project to other players, past/present and all around the league and world. Leading means you set a positive example for those around you. What Mats has shown to NHL'ers and amateurs alike, is that you can hold an entire culture hostage for whatever vague personal reason(s) you see as fit. Imagine the snarled mess this game would be in if everyone acted this way. The decision to play or retire should have been made LONG before the free agency deadline. This waffling and weak mindedness shows me that he is not ready to lead anything, anywhere. Mike Gillis, re neg your contract offer and lets get this team out of the gates on a solid footing this season.
