  1. I know just poking fun. poor fella thats 2 own goals in a few games tho. Gotta feel for him.
  2. Geeze Harley really lost the thread on this bike. Looks like some hipster skinny jeans steampunk is designing their bikes now.
  3. Yeesh Jan. If you look at the entire history of the Canucks. We have never had a franchise D. I mean we are talking Lumme, Edler, Ohlund, Salo,....... Doug Lidster? in terms of best D to ever play for the Canucks. Like ever. You don't go trading Hughes you move heaven and earth to get him a partner to reach his full potential. A Ham to his Juice. Sure Hughes +/- isn't great but he's a rover and we literally have him paired with a 7/8D a guy who spent most of last year as a healthy scratch. Surely his numbers would be better alongside a 25yo Seabrook. Instead of trading Hughes JB needs to be putting in the leg work to find Hughes enabler.
  4. Regardless of value and fit. I see no reason why PHI would be motivated to part with Laughton who seems to fit their squad.
  5. If TO wanted to get rid of Bill that bad they can just expose him in the expansion...... basically the only reason I could see JB acquiring him is to protect Holtbeast from Seattle and that could certainly backfire. Maxemilliam on the other hand might work but I don't see any reason why Chi would want to make that trade.
  6. honestly I dislike Nylander and have talked a lot of trash about him in the past. However if Pete okd it I would accept it. 6x6 isnt a good look and TO should be looking to move him for whatever they can get. If its Virtanen Pearson or something like that going the other way I would be willing to take the chance.
  7. Why? Marky is a great guy. He got paid good for him there is no reason to have any hate for the guy. We got Demko Holtbeast. His contract didnt work for us. Im still loving the camaraderie between him and the team. Reminds me of SOB having an open door policy to our dressing room haha.
  8. Honestly I loved that about Marky. Live n die by the sword I guess but him charging out of the net during the playoffs had me up on my feet fist pumping. If there was a crowd in attendance plays like that can change a series.
  9. I agree and you are right. This topic is troll bait. However it is plain to see he is in a funk. I we can call a funk a funk. It's probably a good thing the kid is facing some adversity. Kid cake walked into the NHL it's good he's having some growing pains. Stands to reason though to your post if he was rolling we would probably be doing more winning.
  10. Just my opinion. I myself once advocated for getting him before he became a cane. I just don't want to see a FA signing made when the team wasn't ready handcuffing them when they are.
  11. Our track record with FA signings especially big money ones ain't pretty. I feel like the team is on a good course. Trying to turn the clock forward with FA signings could easily be turning the clock back.
  12. IMO this is exactly what we should not be doing. FA needs to chain JB to a tree for the opening of free agency. OEL was an opportunity to swap bad contracts. Moot point anyway. If you're paying DH 7.5 how much are you paying the NHL points leading D? I would like to see Edler back to retire a Canuck. We acquired Schmidt for a 3rd. I'm not sure of this ransom you speak of.
  13. Ya 3 days does not seem like enough. I'm not a doctor but that appeared to be more than mild. Hopefully he makes a full recovery.
