  1. Look all the different itinerations of the jerseys this season. I think it’s great that they’re being creative with the Orca
  2. C’mon. There is such thing as pre-drinking and post-drinking. Y’all not just drinking during the game! We drinking pre and post game!
  3. What would be an example of a middle pairing RHD that the Coyotes and Kraken looking for? Would they take Myers for a 2nd rounder?
  4. Yeah. I tend to agree that Benning was not qualified for the GM position for this franchise. I can’t speak for any other team, or how well or not well he would do for any other NHL organization. But for the Canucks. He was God awful. It was true that looking back now, it’s obvious that he did not have any sort of sense of direction. Which must have been frustrating working for the man (can you imagine??). I agree that I don’t think he’ll get another opportunity to be GM over any other franchise in the league.
  5. With that being said, I hope Bo stays. There’s a good core that the team will build around, and with this current management, serious about building a contender.
  6. Yeah. I was going to say that 4 point game against Vegas was his best of the season. He used to have those 4 point games with regularity in his first season. I think so many people just thought he’d be doing that throughout his career. But clearly he was injured earlier in the season, because the last few games is vintage Petey. I hope he rips the league up next season, proving to himself and the Canucks that he is the superstar that he can be. No more posting on Instagram this off-season, please. Get to work, put on some more strength, maybe a little more muscle, and work on those shots and be ready to fly come October. If there’s a lesson that this team learned this season. It’s that you can’t be lackadaisical in your efforts and game the first couple of weeks or even months into the season, only to be behind the eight ball and then expect to catch up. The division, and the conference is too damn good to play catch up. Gotta be at your best right from the start. That’s what I hope the players learned from this season, it’s really hard to catch up, even with the so called “bad teams” in the division and conference. Anyone can beat any other team on any given day in this league.
  7. Yeah. I’d like to see Rathbone given a chance to play some games before the end of the season.
  8. they really can’t afford to lose, can they? If they lose, it just makes it increasingly more difficult to make the postseason. Win tonight, and then watch the out of town scores to see where they’re at. What needs to happen for us to gain some ground tonight?
  9. Dickinson I was quite surprised. i thought when Benning made that trade, that was a decent acquisition. I’m not sure why he hasn’t worked out here. Myers I think could be had for a 2nd round pick, no? I’m not sure anyone’s going to give up a first for him. I mean, if we could land a 1st for Myers, that would be amazing. But I’m thinking more 2nd or 3rd round pick for his services. Am I wrong to think this?
  10. I’m not sure. That’s a good question.
  11. I can’t imagine the backlash from the fanbase if Glass was a Canuck. But we’d probably have a couple more lottery picks, you’re probably right.
  12. Glass to me is already a bust considering where he was selected. But if he could be had for cheap, then I’m all for that risk, but no way should be he traded for one of our better players on the roster. And to think that some fans wanted Glass over Pettersson. How would that choice looked today? Goodness sakes, 22 NHL points in 70 games. Yikes. 23 years old already. Yeah, that’s just bust written all over the player. He could be a late bloomer, I guess? But who’s going to pay a pretty penny for a player that hasn’t produced yet at the NHL level, was a top ten draft pick? I’m guessing not too many. It’s one of those buy low opportunities, but no smart GM would give too much for Glass at this point.
  13. I’ll be honest. I don’t know much about Myrenberg. But this franchise has not had many RHD prospects worth talking about, sot he fact that we have someone who is somewhat promising is intriguing. Does he make the jump to the NHL? Who knows. But for now, his development is promising. Guess we’ll see if he can keep this up, and whether or not he’ll come over to Abby for further development especially on North American ice. That’s what I’d be more interested in, whether his game on European ice (which is generally larger, so players do have more room to process) translates to North American ice, where he won’t have as much room, or time to process his decisions.
  14. What’s this kid’s ceiling?
  15. Yeah. I think with the Russian/Ukraine situation, it’s going to be a tough sell for teams to take a risk on him. Possibly a contending team who could roll the dice on him. Even if he doesn’t work out, that would be okay for said team. For us - we cannot afford to have any busts moving forward (especially first round selections), so if Miro falls into the second or even third round, I’d take a flyer for sure, as many other teams would as well. Maybe even for a second round selection. But there’s no guarantee he beats this disease, let alone rebound from being so behind in his development. Who knows if he even catches up development wise.
  16. You’d hope so right? I’m not sure if I’d take the risk with a late 1st, because he very well could not return to health, like at all. A mid to late 2nd, yes, absolutely worth the pick. And if he slides well into the 3rd round, you better damn take him. I’m sure there are other teams that are more willing to take the risk, compared to the Canucks, though. I’m just not sure if we can afford to take those first round risks, even if it’s in the 20 range.
  17. Well, if he slides well into the 2nd or even 3rd, I’d definitely take a flyer on him. That could be a major steal.
  18. Totally forgot about Truscott to be honest. Would be curious to see how he does with his D partner, Luke Hughes.
  19. So how’s Dipietro trending now? There was a lot of talk about how his game has fallen off, now it seems like he’s trending back up… What’s the report on the guy?
  20. Wow. If we could get another 1st or 2nd, I’d take him on. But there are obviously red flags for someone who was ranked #2 and then dropping to the second round.
  21. Wasn’t this guy rated top 3 earlier in the season? What’s happened to him that his stock has dropped that far?
  22. Yeah. And it’s a good contract that I’m sure he’ll sign, since he won’t have a lot of leverage, if any. It’s smart piece of business. Not sexy, but smart, and that’s what we need more of. Intelligent management.
