  1. That's amazing. I went to bed but wish we just let him score his 5th goal... Make Jimmy Pattison cough up that extra 900k! Too bad for sure. As for the game the trolls can mope and whine all they want, I wouldn't trade rosters with a single team in this league. Get a grip trolls. Too many kids used to playing NHL on Xbox, smh... Now they've grown up and they prob still playing Xbox and pretending they better gm and coach than the guys who took us 1 period away from the west final
  2. Sucks losing but meh, boys playing good tbh. Can't be upset with a solid effort... Love our future and there's absolutely no other team I'd want to support... We've got such a plethora of young talent unlike anything this franchise has seen 50+ years... Bless up! Anyways past my bed time. Hope the boys can mustard a come back. Would like some playoff hockey but I'm ok either way... 35 million Canadians from coast to coast were drooling over our glorious Canucks in that epic playoff run last year. They still drooling prob! Good night Canucks nation. Stay positive. If you're upset go for a walk.
  3. Bro, the world is ending. I'm with u! Everyone run! I repeat... THE WORLD IS ENDING! ... Soft shot from edler on heavily padded pro stock skates... Player himself feels fine and skated... BUT WAIT... We've got developments from coach that Bo Horvat might never walk again. This franchise is over! Shut down the team! THE SKY IS FALLING! Confirmed The captain will never walk again! It's time we become Phlegmz fans. Jokes aside, do u pound alarm bells in your own life non stop as well? Or just doing it to troll Canucks nation only? What do u do if your wife over toasts your bread? "toast burnt this morning... I NEED A Divorce!" Anyways nothing against u coach but I hope you can ditch the sky is falling mentality Edit: again no disrespect, you're name after one of the most iconic coaches in hockey, but come on...
  4. You've got a point but I don't think it's really all that different given its 2021 and we have the technology for rapid tests... We have instant testing that was invented by a great Canadian company... yet the nhl is choosing the slower method. Send armia and jesperi to quarantine. Test everyone else. If they got enough guys testing negative then play them. Use your extra players. All I can say is bergevin is smart for lobbying for this. His team is 80% less banged up than the Canucks but he still wants to delay until they %100. He saw an opportunity and took it.
  5. You're such a troll. Both your replies brutal to my post... You make drones that set a standard. Period. The players will adjust. If it's soft it won't get called. Consistency. So games aren't fixed. This is a pipe dream tho, too many billions involved for them to let go of fixing results.
  6. Off course. Get drones to do it. Let their be a single standard. It's 2021 we have the technology. Only thing holding it back is that these league want to control outcomes to a certain extent
  7. Can anyone explain to me why on earth Montreal games are being postponed? Two nothing players in armia and kotkaniemi have covid? So what? Who cares... They are no body compared to JT Miller... Who missed plenty of games yet we got 0 postponed... Just makes no sense... JT Miller outscored every clown on that Montreal team... He's a far superior player, yet none of our games got postponed and we had to fight with a depleted roster? Yet armia and kotka absence causes cancelation? Brutal league. Good for Bergevin and Molson family for lobbying bettman to let their team rest up and heal from all injuries. Brutal. If I'm Benning I say we all have covid too and let guys recoup from injuries. Brutal. Anyways let's get that W tonight!
  8. Just heard some Bertuzzi to Tarrana rumours and I'm livid. This would be a crime against humanity IMO. I'm all for Canadian teams having success... all my top 7 favourite teams are the glorious Canadian ones... this is truly the greatest nation on the planet IMO and my allegiance will always lie here BUT.... with all that being said, the only place a Bertuzzi should be traded to is Vancouver (NOT tarrana). What do you guys think it would take to acquire him? I wonder what Dubas and Laughs are offering but here's my offer Rous/Beags + 2nd + something... Would love it if Jim the King just jumped on a call with Stevie Y and asked him what his "+ something" would have to be. Just get it done IMO. Sign Tyler long term 7 years 4.5AAV if he'll agree to such a low #
  9. Im thinking and hoping its precursor to someone being shipped out to open cap? maybe one of Rous or Beagle? Jim would look like a genuis if he pulls that off and uses Boyd at 700k cap hit instead... Then maybe people will stop calling the whambulance over his cap management
  10. I'd be ok with Matthews 50% retained for Eriksson next As for this pickup.... Don't know much about Boyd until now... His stats actually look solid and given that 700k cap... fellow Minnesota boy for Brocky to make him feel more at home so he'll never leave Oh another Travis on the team... Trifecta! Loved the Vesey acquisition and this one looks like it could work out too! Disclaimer: Really don't think I ever saw this guy play, but more often than not, Jim the KING is right. I will trust Jims judgement and believe in this pickup. His hands have been tied with covid but 2 Tarrrrrana pickups are just what the doctor ordered. No quarantine, ready to get vengeance against their old team that gave up on them... and seriously love the fact that he's from Minny. Prob my fav American state. Cup or bust
  11. Yup he really does have the same form. I don't think it's fair to Petey or anyone from this Era to be compared to Wayne. None of these guys have the pleasure of shooting on goalies who really don't have much of a chance with terrible gear Wayne was way ahead of his time but I doubt he gets remotely close to his old stats in current league. Does he get 1000 less Assists because the guys he passes to can no longer score on terribly weak shots? When u wrist the Puck with the with no power and you score 500 goals like that cuz the goalie barely covers 10% of the net with their brutal gear Long story short I think Wayne is the most overrated athlete of all time probably
  12. Could vesey pay homage to Matt Cooke with a clutch goal tonight? The cooker was as clutch as they came!
  13. Hey Coach sorry to come at u again but this is brutal... Is it embarrassing or are u just permanently glass half empty? If something like this embarrasses u, that's not good bro. Let's forget that we're in a pandemic and everyone is starving for news... And that every team is doing their best to generate content... Youre really upset they interviewed the new guy? Also your trolling makes its sound like we picked up Chaput... What does Vesey have in common with The great Brendan Morrison... The iconic Ryan Miller... The north van icon Paul Kariya? Cale makar? Some noobs like Johnny Gaudreau, Jack eichel too? They've won the same trophy and Jimmy has a good shot at impacting our team. It's ok to support the team bro... Let it out
  14. 5-3 Canucks... Game winner... I'll go with the king of kings... the ayatollah of Brock N' Rolla, Bbbbbbbbbbuuhhhhhhhh-RRRRRRRAaaaQ. BeessssSSSSSUUUUURRR
  15. Canucks 6-0 GWG... I'll take a page from Deb's book and go with Edler for the century mark! Long live the great Eagle!
  16. Take the W and run. Some brutal shootout attempts, can laugh about it since we won Ottawa is a proud team with plenty of skill. They got blown out a few times and weren't messing around. Got both wins, now time to win the next game. Just win baby!
  17. You have no clue how much withdrawals I've had from sims lol... I've been checking the website every now and then.... constantly drooling over DC's Canucks... grew up with pretty much all those players... Couldn't have chosen a better year. Brutal that he hasn't waived Messier yet tho Really miss u guys... I spent more time with u guys than my own friends during covid hahaha... such a fun league and everyone was awesome but you! (JK :P)... hopefully can jump back in when the NHL regular season ends and my yahoo leagues end. Right now don't have the right time to commit to a team and be active as possible Anyways back to Jimbo - I agree it's more than just 500k... there's been some overpayments but the team was desparate for able bodies... I give him a free pass on Loui as was expected and that was the going rate for UFA's back then. Lots of nukes from that draft. Other than that it's just a million or two on sutter rous beagle that are really over payments... As for the bolded... Tanev and Marky were warriors and I'm sad to see them go, but I think it's clear the right decision was made. Demmer has bloomed, Holtby is a solid 1b former vezina winner and will only have 1 year left... Hamonic 1 mill over Tanev... lets be real that's stellar. Travis has really heated up. He's playing his heart out since he knows he's on contract year. So Toffoli leaving is probably the only sore spot? It definitely hurts, especially when he pops a hatty against us... but that's sports for you. This happens when players feel betrayed , they play with more fire, more intensity... Yes losing him was a mistake. But these mistakes aren't much... none of them are losing franchise players... they are all complementary guys that we've let walk that you can argue the replacements, are better. I'm personally ok that they put in Hoge over Toff. Stats aren't perfect now, but the future is brighter this way. Gotta trust Jim's process coach. Just have some faith in him, he's picked out some real diamonds for us. Not just drafting either... JT Miller trade...
  18. Brogan to Moose! YES! Get some of that KB3 magic rubbing off and we money! Great to see the franchise back. Welcome back Motter!
  19. All these O' jerseys are good lolz... but if they want me to drop some serious dime, give me a O'Garrett and all my money is yours
  20. Go team! Brocky to the moon! It's a shame Matt Murray isn't back for these games... Brocky sure does love lighting him up
  21. Anyone think numi is a good buy? Good vancouver company that will likely grow a lot more now that they got 35 mill invested?
  22. Sometimes adversity just brings teams together... I thinks that's what we're seeing here. Once he's back, we'll be firing on even more cylinders! Go team!
  23. Hey Coach! Nothing against u but only guys calling the whaaambulance are his doubters. Seems like they call the whaaambulance non stop. No body cares that we have some bad contracts that come off the books in 2 months or 15 months... Who cares... How short sighted are people? He's given us countless franchise players and they all in their 20s... How about we enjoy the 10+ years we're going to have 5 freakin phenoms for? Instead of calling the whaaambulance over Beagle getting paid 500k more than he should? Unless your aquaman daughter who had her buggatti downgraded to a lambo, all I see is buncha glass half empty guys calling the whaaambulance. Or saying silly things like eeehrrrmaaageuurrddd markstrom 6x6 shoulda signed him! Demko can't even get 100% save percentage every night... Just watch away broadcasts. They do nothing but praise our team and youngsters and Jim... Only trolls are Canucks fans that have clinical depression over the injustice us diehards have had to go thru.
  24. Yes his doubters think this is X-Box game... they think they can turn down the difficulty and just win 10 cups in a row. No GM is perfect... look around the league. Good for you for being able to point out some of his mistakes. I can play that game too but it's silly. Watch Canucks games on the away broadcast... every away commentator praises us... everyone is drooling over all our talent ... but you out here talking about CHIRAQ?! So tough to draft franchise player when you get 1st overall in lotto? Also Toews was 2nd or 3rd overall wasn't he? Jim has excelled at the most important part of the game - finding franchise players... our future has simply never looked this bright and no GM has had a better record of acquiring franchise assets than Jim.... His drafting is simply a landslide #1 in the league since Brocky year... there's no GM that snagged that many franchise assets with so few picks! Jim took over with very few picks and older vets that he couldn't get much for... few picks for him as the previous regime left us decimated (no hate towards my boy MG - he had to do what he had to do to make us the first team in salary cap era to win back to back President trophies) Jim has snagged diamonds with brutal pick positions but he clearly doesn't care. Jim beninning wants you to drop him 3 spots in the draft. He doesn't care... he'll still win the draft. FTR Hughes was robbed of the Calrder. I don't even care though, we're claiming victory of that draft! Long live the great Jim Benning <3 To the moon!
