    Has anyone seen this play from Makar? WOW.

      here's the tweet though, so other people won't have to leave CDC

      Thanks for sharing the tweet. 

       

      But yeah. That was one hell of a play by Makar. 

       

      I think Hughes has the potential and ability to make plays like that as well. I think it’s just a matter of time with him. I still think that Makar is the slightly better player, but he’s more valuable because he’s a natural RHD.

      I definitely could see Hughes doing a play like this, though he's more inclined to pass it off than make the drive to the net Makar did.

       

      Makar is probably the best offensive d-man in the NHL right now and his defense isn't horrible either.

  2. Was looking forward to the game against the Krakheads on Dec 27th. Sigh…

      Krackheads!  Awesome!  Is Francis the talking mule in danger of losing his stall?  He’s been stinking it up bad.

      I don’t think Francis’ job is in danger. He is the GM of an expansion franchise. He’s probably got some leeway for the first couple of years. Now, if by year 4 or 5, the team still stinks, then I can see him getting canned. But he’s gotta be given a few years before being fired. 

  3. Mike Babcock apparently in town and Aquilini family going to meet with Babcock. Is this a good move?

      He's in town for a University game, no? :huh:

      Wouldn't you at least meet with him if you owned the team and currently had Travis Green coaching it?

      @BureBurrito Yes two games vs. UBC. 

  4. Are you tired of the negativity on media about the Canucks? (Twitter, Canucks Board, Radio, etc)

      @Down by the RiverTwitter is the worse. 

       

      So many toxicity on the tweets when it comes to the Canucks. If it's negative on these boards, it's 10x worse on Twitter.

      All of the coverage on the Canucks (mostly, if not all is negative) has taken a toll on me for sure. It's depressing to hear so much bad press and news about not just the team and its players underperforming (like almost all of the top six - Bo, Petey, Brock - that's half of our top six right there), but also bad press about the organization as a whole. It's so heavy. There is almost nothing positive about the state of this team, her management team, her coaches, and her players. It's all bad. 

       

      On top of that, there is a deep distrust with the franchise right now. Brand loyalty is, I wouldn't say at its lowest, but is declining for sure. I don't trust Benning to make good trades on behalf of the franchise that he eventually will be leaving (can't see him staying beyond this season).

      @N4ZZYDrance is fine when it comes to print... his podcast with Farhan Lalji is, to me, impossible to get through. Not because what Drance says is necessarily wrong, but because he seems to regularly openly mock/laugh at the lack of success individual players are having. He is just extremely obnoxious, especially because he seems to be accentuating the length of his laugh for effect. Reeks of West Van privilege. 

  5. Is Green fired at the end of this road trip?

      He came back to give us a couple more kicks to the teeth!!!

      I don't even know anymore.  There is no excuse for his continued employment.

      I think Green will be fired if they go 0-5 on this trip. 

       

      But then again, I've been surprised that they've kept an incompetent GM for 8 years, and resigned Green to 2.75M. 

       

      This team is just the laughing stock of the NHL at this moment. We are not a good franchise right now. 

       

      And we used to make fun of Edmonton...

       

      Who wants to come to Vancouver now? 

       

  6. 12PM Pacific Time can't come soon enough. It's going to be crazy morning tomorrow.

      as much as you think it will help, don't wake up early, get the extra sleep, ...and the summary

      haha. i ain't getting up early for Trade Deadline. Just going to check on these boards here or on Twitter when I'm up. Hit and miss from year to year, no? Sometimes it's crazy, others times it's just dead quiet. 

       

  7. has lost hope in Luongo.
