  1. I knew I forgot one. Now I gotta figure out how to edit a thread… Anyone wanna help a newbie out and teach me how to edit a topic?
  2. Simple question: Will any Canuck win a major award this season?
  3. Interesting. Motte is a free agent. Would be another boost to the pk. I think most fans would welcome him back with open arms.
  4. You can really tell how big it is there! It’s all screen.
  5. Do I really need to explain power dynamics and the difference between a male in that position and a female?
  6. Agreed. A push from the bottom will determine everything for us. No push equals more of the same. Very excited to see where some of these young guys are at.
  7. How about a 29 year old winger? Calgary seemed to think that was a good idea…
  8. When they can’t even execute the simple plays what is a manager supposed to do? Bunting towards first base when you’re trying to advance a runner to third? Like come on that’s a simple play that cost them. Swinging on a 3-0 pitch? Like what? Maybe the managers lost the room but I see this a team confidence/chemistry thing more than I see it as little individual decisions. Talent only goes so far if you’re not playing smart and putting in the work.
  9. At the end of the day it’s up to your superstars to win you games. They’re not. Easy to pick apart every little decision the manager makes, but all I see is leaving runners in scoring positions in crucial parts of games time after time.
  10. Say what you want about the pitching decisions the Jays had the game on their bats in the bottom of the 10th and failed to get it done again. Their big players are not coming up clutch. Hard to win when that’s happening. Say goodbye to the postseason.
  11. This is why you build a team full of young and hungry players. OEL is happy to collect his retirement contract and just go through the motions. Exact same thing happened with Eriksson. Lets hope Miller is built different.
  12. Sadly your age is showing… When you get excited and happy is your first instinct to go up to a random woman you know and kiss her on the lips? No. so why is it okay for him to do it? This is the power dynamic and entitlement women have been dealing with throughout history on full display here. Just smile and go along with it right Alf?
  13. Nope. Just insecure fans doing the preemptive breakup in order to protect themselves in case he leaves.
  14. Define “winning club”. Do we wanna build a cup winner or just be like the Leafs and be thrilled to win a round? The team was not close, and if you took off your rose coloured glasses you’d see that.
  15. We didn’t even make the playoffs that year. It took a special format to get us in… We saw what happened when they went up against a real contender in Vegas. It was not close despite it going 7. The team has always needed way better D and size up front.
  16. Lol and how did Marky and Tanev do getting the Flames into the playoffs? The right choice was made with Demko. Only crappy part is not getting something for Marky when we could. Tanev and Toffoli would have been nice to keep but they wouldn’t have solved our problems. We only would have ended up with a slightly worse draft pick.
  17. Funny how players know the media and the fans are overreactive and intense in this market yet our players still go out and do summer interviews that fan the flames of speculation. Wonder what the Canucks management thought of his Friedman interview. Coincidence that the Canucks send out a video of Petey today saying hi to Canucks fans.
  18. Already done. His team won 4-1 but it seems like he had a very quiet game.
  19. 11.5x5 is good for both sides. Gives him a chance to earn one more big contract at 29 just like Matthews.
  20. I’m sure people who are paying like $600 a ticket are really gonna get pumped up when the players walk by. I can picture it now “honey who are those guys?” “I dunno the lacrosse team? I don’t really follow sports…”
  21. Lol Aquilini is determined to cram a restaurant into every corner of that arena he can… Looks like nice upgrades though. Does this mean our scoreboard is bigger than the Oilers now. Was hoping they would announce a new practice facility as part of phase 3 but I guess that’s gonna take longer.
  22. Lol will never happen but could you imagine if the Canucks are a serious contender in 3 years and he decided to come here? Tavares treatment in Long Island would seem like child’s play compared to how bad Oilers fans would lose their sh$t!
  23. Gotta think Comtois was involved. He would have been signed by now otherwise no?
