  1. I'd like to see analysis of this trend from Sesame St's Count..like, what's next eh?
  2. Just had a quick shake/shift here Monday morn in Japan. 3 days back(Fri aft) had a bigger one, here in the Kansai area. Gettin ancy...
  3. 3-2-1 on this upcoming roady.

     

    Who's bickerish?

  4. Roussel, or Schaller?

     

    Been wondering if we should place one of these two with the dynamic duo(EP40 & BB)?

     

    They'll likely take lots of abuse after latest performance.

      Roussel. The guy is as nasty as they come. He won't let them get knocked around and god forbidding they do. He'll certainly answer the call.

      NFA, he plays with a chip on his shoulder like Burr, but actually backs up his antics..

       

      Rous also has more finish than Schaller. So my vote would be for Roussel if we're changing the dynamic of our scoring line.

      This may be the most important thing Green addresses.  Obv Pettersson can play with anyone, and if it takes playing Boeser with him that's cool.  They need some sand paper though.

       

  5. Love the Bulldog!

     

    Not sure I want that lil'bowling ball to go back, when/IF we get healthy..what to do?

     

    But if it's within 10 games, we don't risk waivers again..correct?

      Fear not, it's not like he's tearing up the league, or leading the team in +/-. 

       

      He's 30 years old, and a journeyman, that doesn't complain. 

       

      Pretty sure he'd clear waivers. 

  6. Do you know who sniped? Were any tallies of the sexy variety?
  7. According to HFComets thread, Dahlen scored from Brisebois. 2 more of our C's took heavy abuse(looked hurt)..but came out for next period.
  8. Sutter???

     

    Did we get official word on the precise length of time he should miss?

    1. Jaku

      4-6 weeks

  9. It's likely Antie Niemie has balls..& Bob's yer Uncle?
  10. Yeah..I shouldn't go full-on a$$munch-mode either..just horsin around, cos' someone left my barn door open! :^) You're right, the depth is building beautifully. Someone's hurling ringers at the draft table!
  11. Feelin' inspired, by this 'Nucks crew we back

    Had grown tired, from trolls & their flak

    Makin' their own luck

    With Green, stops the buck

    Now dissers adrift, & rebuild right on track!

      This year..we beat the Flames in the first round of the playoffs and force them to rebuild again.

      Holy Toledo  mangled that limmy...

       

      line 1

      line 2 ..same, same

      With Green stops the buck

      Creatin' their luck

      line 5 ..same

       

      This woulda featured more flow..was early morn(before java), & I guess I didn't give 110%, eh?..

  12. Dude..If you're looking North(where all the ice is floating in the sea, wayy atop the world), your left is due West..where the sun moves to sleep at night. Next morn the sun comes rippin round & RISEs in the East(THAT's yer right side), etc... You got all the rightys on the left..It ain't right, with all the guys left...
  13. You may be right, B..the guys on the radio(post-game) said it seemed an accidental car crash. Hard to see these things on my lil' pc screen. I jumped on this opportunity to refresh my conspiratorial(2 rulebooks!) thread..as I hope it'll trickle consistently, then burst into a WATERGATE!-level Intl fiasco..just playing my part in pursuit of fame, $ & perhaps a Nobel? :^) Anywhoo..always seems our boys on the receiving end of these fender-benders...
  14. Sure hope Stecher's okay. Another highway side-swipe unpunished?..Manning's a dirty punk.
  15. Man..maybe HillarityClinton is a secret partner, & it's poisoned the well? Who knows? Last 5 yrs the parent team has been in only 1 PO round. Hell, they've had a few PO cracks, haven't they?(1 run to finals too)
  16. Yeah..had the pleasure. Back in the day you could get a decent run-down(analysis, that is) of what was going on. They didn't even have a Frackin'team for yrs..now they've had a sold-out bldg, to cheer on the game. This enabled them to get new development/complex(?..think their city is going with)..yet a few posters are incessantly whining now, not getting every outcome they demand/are entitled to(?!). Filed under: no good deed goes unpunished!
  17. They may's well sign a few more PTO types(like last season..it actually worked too)..with the injuries this yr, we'll prob be ravaging their lineup some more.
  18. HFBoards is such toxic tripe!

     

    SomewannabeGM there is claiming the Canucks' rebuild hasn't even started yet!

     

    Haven't we been ranked top-5 for prospects already?

      I'm glad it's there so those people don't infest these boards with that bile.  The team's fun to watch again and it's because of the kids that Benning drafted and traded for.

      I haven't read anything there in ages because it's an insufferable gong show 9/10 of the time.  I've seen posters there (Canucks fans ) rooting against prospects succeeding so that it will reflect poorly on the team/management.  Those are not the views of a rational fan. There are definitely  people there who strongly identify as "anti-management " to the point where that is their primary allegiance.  It must be difficult for those people to reconcile that with the emergence of young talent and the growth that comes with it.  I wonder what their rationale will be to screech about  things when it really  turns around.  The Brandon Prust trade still ?

      Ohh..seems a big one is JB never acquiring picks(only dealing them)! Therefore, no rebuild.

       

      Completely ignore the nice picks we've made, apparently?

  19. Oooh, also Beware! the drivel from lackey media. Who'll portray the Gagner demotion, like a fatherless family fallin thru the cracks in a daytime soap opera... "& we don't neeed the ladies, cryin' cos the stories saddd, uh huh Cos' The Rocky Mtn way, it's better than the way we hadddd...yeah, yeah, yeah" -Joe Walsh
  20. ! Now they video review our 2:00 minors!!
  21. Edler injury a possible plus?

     

    After mulling it a bit, I wonder??

     

    - If team was destined to drop(pick 2019 high) this seems to ensure that, eh?

    - MDZ & Pouliot seem write-offs. But their existence ensures young hopefuls aren't embarrassed/can develop 1 more yr in Utica. So that 4 mill(expiring) isn't truly wasted

    - gives us a chance to see if BHutt is actually worth investing hopes/some term

    - We know QH & OJ should be in next yr.

    -If Hutton falls apart, we can offer Edler a coupla' more yrs(reasonably)

    -Finally, if Edler returns(playing well again) & the team rebounds a bit. Then we should demand more(TDL) if he's willing..& it'll be justifiable too.

      Rush17

      It might just be. It highlights his value to the hockey team and gives young guys a chance to play. Not to mention Del Zotto gets to wear an A and boost his value for a potential deadline deal as a #7. I would take a 4th for Disaster Del Zotto right now.

    3. luckylager

      luckylager

      Not sure there's a team out there that would part with a 4th for DelZaster....

       

      He's been a healthy scratch off a very weak defensive squad

      I think Edler will be back regardless of how the year plays out tbh, we're not gonna get someone of his caliber for a better price via UFA or trade. If he wants to be here management probably figures something out.

       

      I expected us to be in the running for a top 10 pick again this season, injuries to our top guys makes that more likely but I'm by no means wishing for our guys to get or stay hurt.

  22. So NOTHING done about Baertschi's concussion? Looks like another example to throw into the mix.
  23. Wondering the same? Maybe they felt if they gave him the K, he'd commit to some LT deal? Then they find out he still wants to return to NA?..Bah, whatever? Time will tell.
  24. Don't risk EP this season.

     

    Send him back to Sweden. This league doesn't care if our young stars get illegally injured. Media treat it as humour.

     

    Next yr he & QH finish 1-2 in ROY race.

     

    Screw it..tank hard with extra patience.

      Maybe they could lock Ron McLean in there with him, just to really sell it.

       

      McLean's such a weasel

      Ok lets talk about that old goof DON CHERRY,

      COACHES CORNER WELL S%^&.  I could have coached that Bobby Orr Bruins team or a team like that Gretzky Oilers team and had the same results.You don't have to be a great coach to have wins with powerhouse teams like that.

      That being said, that Don and Ron show is getting to be pathetic,if it isn't Toronto or the Bruins they rarely have anything good to say and I would much rather have skilled players in the league(the Crosbys and McDavids and Ovechkins) than those goons Grapes loves too much.

      You don't see too many of those idiots playing on a Team Canada,because they don't have enough SKILL.

      Of course being that My personnal favorite player was JEAN BELIVEAU, I suppose I see the game differently than those fans of fight hungry dirty players.

      have another one

  25. Man, just read about these..y'all should hide in Japan!
