  1. Marc Crawford has at least 1 cup ring in Van if he had any one of these guys as his goalie...Demmer, Holtby, Miller, Marky, Louolongo 

     

    Burky never really gave him a shot by not addressing goaltending IMO... he got as much out of our roster as he could

      Wasn't just the goalie, they needed depth on both forwards and defence. 

      That kind of happens when you trade away your picks. 

      I admire Burke for getting the Sedins. And will always be grateful for that.

      Dan Cloutier would've made Marchand eat meals with a straw if he was in net and saw what the rat was doing.  Granted, with Cloutier in net, we wouldn't have advanced to the Finals.:P

      @Ghostsof1915 in Burkie's defense the salary cap wasn't there for his canucks career and during that time we had cheap ownership. If we had deep pocket aquilinis Burky woulda plugged all those holes via UFA... we just had no budget.

       

      in 2002 Burky had half the player budget from his ownership than detroit... it's a miracle what that team did... put in Demmer / Miller or any of the other mentioned goalies and that team comes home for game 3 and locks it down and sweeps Detroit by game 4.

       

      Detroit only won cuz they spent 70 mill and we were at 30 mill (my numbers might be off a little but they spent about double)
