  1. Does anyone else remember McCann saying shortly after the draft that he felt he would only need one more year of junior before making the jump to the NHL? The kid called his shot. impressive!

    1. Robongo

      Robongo

      Sure do, now let's see if he can stick for the whole year!

      It is what it is :P

      I'm totally saying that everytime he scores too.

      IF he calls his own shots then when he wants a contract in 3 tears he's not going to budge on how much he wants... It's not always a good thing

  2. Updated line up guess:

      That's old school!

      I think it could work. I think they would protect Vey from his lack of physicality.

  4. I'm boldly predicting the Canucks will not take a canadian born player in the first round. If Zboril isn't available, we're picking a 'Merican.

  5. Congrats to the comets for advancing to the conference finals. biggest challenge yet with Grand Rapids.

  6. In today's unsurprising news: Jordan Subban signs. now, what's the over/under on months til everyone panicking about not signing return to their roots of devaluing him because of his height?

  7. Which pair of first round picks will be the most prolific Canucks? Baertschi/Jensen? Horvat/Shinkaruk? Or Virtanen/McCann?

      You're not even playing the game! which tandem? 2011? 2013? or 2014?

    3. Piggy Bank

      Piggy Bank

      2014 - only because my expectations are lower than that with the other guys

    4. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      Jake and Bo will rule them all.

  8. Trade values seem a little high today.. I hope we don't overpay for anything short term.

  9. Alex Biega just Lee Sweatt'd this game.

    1. Where's Wellwood

      Where's Wellwood

      I just hope he doesn't Lee Sweatt his career.

  10. Congrats to Ronalds Kenins on his first NHL call up! Really excited to see what he can do. A Kenins-Horvat-Kassian 4th line should be able to make some noise.

      Only noise Kassian makes is when he misses his check and slams into the glass

    3. Odd.

      Odd.

      Who the hell is Kassain Gstank? I've checked NHLnumbers.com and Kassain doesn't have a contract with us.

    4. Mr.DirtyDangles

      Mr.DirtyDangles

      Kassian is the physical manifestation of Horvats Alter hockey ego.

  11. feels good having 1st round picks and other good prospects actually playing on the farm. we haven't had that in awhile; excited to see what some of these guys do this year.

    1. Gstank29

      Gstank29

      Not just first round prospects but GOOD first round prospects with high ceilings

      It's a process.

  12. Ok I have a theory. I'm sure everyone is familiar with hipsters. So, where I'm from, hipsters dislike widely accepted things just for the sake of being different. In Vancouver though, could people ask for stupid trades and such just to be "counter culture"?

      I used to be a hipster, but it got too popular and it's no longer cool.

      I feel like the definition of hipster changes on a daily. I've given up trying to understand it.

      Hipsters who only do it with resentment suck. But hipsters who have a real desire for things different are pretty fun people who offer fun experiences

  13. to me, willie desjardins talks like he's trying to keep his teeth in. i respect that.

    1. viking mama

      viking mama

      LOL,..or he's fiddling with a piece of turkey caught between his teeth from the club sandwich he ate for lunch & trying to flush it out with his tongue & spittle.

    2. wshdrvvn

      wshdrvvn

      it could of been cause he was upset with the outcome of the coyotes game i guess but during the pre-game presser you could clearly see his top row of teeth and in the post game they were no where to be found hahah he mighta needed a little fiddy-dent or something!

  14. on the sidebar of the sun, they had an article ad for "famous black men who only knock up white women". you'd think they wouldn't want that type of stuff on their page.

  15. I'm sure it's mostly due to the VAN/CGY rivalry but people are really over blowing Hartley doing some self defense training at practice. His explanation makes sense and I think it's actually a smart thing to do.

      Goon move by a goon coach.

      peener

      wow the d isnt even close to n how did you make that mistake twice

  16. Adirondack is going to be a handful for Utica this year. these flame's prospects are good.

    1. Gstank29

      Gstank29

      most of the flames prospects will be in the nhl tho

    2. Horvat

      Horvat

      Canucks prospects and utica comets Shouldn't be compared lol

    3. wshdrvvn

      wshdrvvn

      they aren't being compared.

  17. I AM SO GD EXCITED FOR THE YOUNG STARS GAME TONIGHT I CAN'T WAAAAIITT!! HOCKEY IS BACK!

  18. there's something i noticed here on CDC... A lot of posters use the word "crapty" instead of "crappy" is that a Canadian thing? I've never seen that anywhere else but here.

      lol.

      It's cdc's swear filter at work.

      It converts a different word into crap. You can guess what it is.

      @ g_bassi13, that makes a ton of sense hahah thank you!

  19. finally listened through the summer summit. 3 things stuck out to me. 1. trevor linden seems to have an awesome report with the prospects, coach, and managment team. genuine guy. 2. jared mccann had to have been extremely nervous on draft day cause the kid seems to have personality in spades. 3. i want to have a few beers with shorty.

      i'm enjoying demko's blogs, especially the 3rd one...these guys are all going to grow up together...

      Shorty was rolling punchlines all night. It was pretty epic.

    4. wshdrvvn

      wshdrvvn

      ooh, another thing i liked was how loosely everyone played the whole event. as shorty mentioned (several times lol) free beer and wine probably helped but it was a lot more enjoyable than gillis' buttoned up, serious approach to public events like that.

  20. if i was a ref and i saw logan couture bleeding, i would check for ketchhup packets in his gear before making a call.

      I've actually read stories where players would keep a piece of a scab and rip it open for a double minor. Very low.

  21. i always try to find something good to say but i really cannot figure out what makes this team so aenemic. the teams psyche is piss poor right now.

  23. gotta say im a bit disappointed we didn't find any scoring help. but i would have been more upset if we traded away a vet for nothing. ugh. the draft and free agency just became that much more important this summer.

    1. Tearloch7

      Tearloch7

      this summer will determine the Canucks future, for better or worse .

    2. wshdrvvn

      wshdrvvn

      totally agree. i nervously anticipate draft day.

  24. apparantly lu is the good luck goalie.. i can't remember a year or goalie allowing so many hattricks in one season.

    1. Heretic

      Heretic

      He didn't score 3 goals on Luongo. Last was an empty net.

    2. wshdrvvn

      wshdrvvn

      yeah true. how about the canucks allowing so many hattricks then.
