  1. I love the Sedins and have defended them for years, back when they were scrapping for ice time behind the WCE and moving to Calgary, where they get no respect. My problem is even healthy the league allows others teams to ride them, and their cycle has dried up. I think Henrick will always be a great center, but Danny is lost out there. If we could trade one I would actually make the move, they a pair however, so moving them would be a mistake.
  2. Don't you think they would be happy to leave this circus to go to another team if it's so bad? A NTC can be waived
  3. The good part of Hank's injury, we can't trade away the twins for magic beans. Maybe he can stay out until after the deadline
  4. It's rigged, we would pick 5th, some small market US team or the Oilers would get it
  5. Defense hung Luongo out to dry, Luo spent most of the night as old Luo on his knees and stomach. We quit playing after 25 minutes. Pathetic! But I'll be back next game and every other one. One day we'll talk about this slump, hopefully not as an era, and laugh.
  6. Good, he can take his fellow quitters with him. Who needs fans like that?
  7. He didn't try to stop like Booth, to the NHL this is exciting hockey
  8. Let's hope Tort's is at home seeing the game from a fresh point of view. Away from the bench and the team he has a good chance to watch some pathetic games from a very different point of view.
  9. I sat through the entire 9-1 loss in Anaheim, even watched the three stars. Then joked with a Ducks fan when he offered to get me a new jersey. This is my team, you all won't be missed.
  10. Go away. Cheer for your team, win or lose, look for answers. But no one needs another drama queen claiming their leaving after afew bad games
  11. Is that Luongo, or Dorf on hockey? He's spent most of the game on he knees, shortest 6'4" player I've ever seen. The team isn't helping, hanging Luo out to dry. Great 25 minutes, now turn it bac around
  12. There it is miss managed. No one really knows what was happening, but if the team thinks he's healthy and his only nursing sore pride, you have a problem. At that point he's all potential, never cracked an NHL line up and has a great junior rcord, trade him. This becomes a question of management and MG's ability to move players. As for Kassian he's proving to show more skill and upside than he appeared to after the trade
  13. Theres a big chain of restaurants in Calgay ... Chicken on the Way
  14. I'd love to be a fly on the wall.. this meeting has been taking a long time. I'm not sure if they realized how much Torts needed to get off his chest. He's got several injured players as examples, including his captain. The last 4 game have been a good sampling of the crap we put up with
  15. That's why I am saying the Canucks miss managed Hodgson, it has nothing to do with Kassian other than his perceived value through his trade. Hodgson was a cancer, but we knew that well before he ever put on a Canucks uniform, but he was coming from some incredible junior play. His dealings with his agent and our dealings with his injuries were a sign and should have made him at least a good second to third rice of a big trade.
  16. It's true though, the league makes "veteran calls" and favours the original six and developing markets. He's calling it as it is, even though he backtracked a bit on the comment after
  17. Beating the Flames (even in a shootout) sure makes it easier to show my face at the office Monday morning. Lots of water cooler talk from this game
  18. He's definitely winning me over. My gripe would be with Canucks management miss-managing Coho. Based on the potential he showed in the juniors they should have been able to deal him, possibly sooner, for someone else. Right now, for what Kassian provides for the deal we got an equal deal. Overall, you don't want Hodgson to be another Peter Schaefer, which he seemed to be, believing his own hype.
