  1. Is it a coincidence that the first year the nucks could finish 30th is also the first year Gary has drastically reduced the odds that team wins the lottery?

      It can go even further... the first year where any non-playoff team has a chance at number 1, every single Canadian team stinks...a lot.  Coincidence?  Once again, yes, it has more to do with the fact that Canadian markets are less patient with their GM's.

       

      Seriously, look at all the GM's on the Canadian teams.  Only Murray in Ottawa has had his position a while.

  2. Canucks are still feeling the effects of the Gillis era. Couldn't draft any talent until 2013. Got far too less for the two goalies.

      Yup. Getting skunked in three straight drafts and coming up short in five out of six will do that to a franchise.

      Did I just see someone say that we should of rebuilt in 2011? Buddy...

  3. start miller. let markstrom develop without a goalie controversy. it's a lot easier mentally to play backup than start.

      At the beginning of the year, my hope for Markstrom was to be an actual NHL goalie.  Now, I'd say he has earned a 60 (Miller) to 40 (Markstrom) split.  It's good to see.  But yeah, too soon to anoint him starter over a healthy Miller.

      Great update! The article itself wasn't bad, just the goat turd title. The Turdle.

      Yeah, the fault lies squarely at the feet of the editor for that sensationalist headline.

      i believe the modern colloquialism you meant to use was 'fo' real' in lieu of 'legit'

      You can get them at the airport from the kiosk.  Don't you like to be prepared?  I usually arrive at the airport 90 minutes in advance, but then again, sometimes an hour.

    1. goalie13

      goalie13

      Yes, and probably TFC and the Argos in his spare time. The Leafs are a lost cause though.
