[GDT] Canucks vs Oilers Oct 12/22 7:00PM PST SN/SN650/CHED
VforVasili replied to Odd.'s topic in Canucks Talk
That was one hell of an entertaining period. -
Something people sometimes miss is that this stuff is as much for the players as for the fans. Team-building and yes even having a cute puppy visit helps to keep the team loose and build trust in each other. The curmudgeons on here getting all worked up about it need to ask if they think that the 20-24 year old players on the team might actually like getting to goof around a bit to enjoy what they do rather than just "focusing on hockey". I guarantee none of these folks have led a team of any kind in a high stress environment. Our team are making great strides in building a reputation as a great place to play. That helps you attract and keep the best players. You might not like puppies etc. but the players clearly sure as hell do.

[Signing] Senators sign Tyler Motte

Wow this made my day! Will definitely increase my desire to go to Sens games. Love this player and if he can't play for my Canucks, happy to see him on the Sens! -
[Signing] Senators re-sign Tim Stutzle

Yeah this is just plain dumb. Ottawa is the nicest city in Ontario. I have lived in BC and Ottawa and elsewhere and they each have plusses and minuses but your opinion seems to be based on ignorance. People come to Ottawa from around the world and always say how gorgeous it is. Perhaps you were thinking of Oshawa? Or is it just an allergy to our federal government, which, news flash, is not the entire city. -

[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
VforVasili replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Y'all are doing a great job in the quest for 2000 pages. Not one scrap of news in hundreds of pages of posts haha. Carry on! -
[Rumour] J.T. Miller Trade/Contract Talks
VforVasili replied to Podzilla's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I admit to having a bad track record in players I have hitched my wagon to as a fan. Matt Cooke, Todd Bertuzzi, Zack Kassian all have been stated or defended as my favourite player at one time haha aside from Virtanen. -

Still got to be a better purchase than the Virtanen jersey I have in my closet. -
[PTO] Andrew Hammond with Panthers
VforVasili replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Good for the hamburglar. -
[Signing] Canucks re-sign Michael DiPietro
VforVasili replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Lol this thread just came up in the recent discussions when I opened the Trades forum but my browser cut it off as: "Canucks re-sign Mi..." Naturally I thought OMG Miller has been re-signed! Nope. -

Wow I got excited there seeing the thread had jumped 10 pages in the last 3 hours or something. Figured something must have happened. Figured wrong. Just endless bickering. -
[Signing] Ducks sign John Klingberg
VforVasili replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Well, that's one less thing to talk about I guess. -
[Rumour] John Klingberg waiting on Canucks to make a move
VforVasili replied to Mikey87's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
This is precisely what I think our management group is hoping for. -
[Signing] Coyotes sign Troy Stecher
VforVasili replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Good for him. Kinda wanted to see him back but glad he got picked up. -
[Signing] Senators sign Claude Giroux
VforVasili replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Thank the hockey gods I have a local team I can cheer for as a distant second. I already have a jersey for when I have to fake it for work events (work in tourism in Ottawa). Good news. -
[Signing] Canucks sign Curtis Lazar
VforVasili replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I mean at that price they can bury him in the minors whenever they like so nothing to get bent out of shape about. -
I mean, I will be mad too if they don't do those things over the summer. Just didn't think it was guaranteed it would all be done by today, Better to show patience than take a crappy offer if that is all that is currently available.
