Where's Wellwood

McCann is a weird story. I'm not sure why the Canucks gave up on McCann in the first place.

False narrative.  Just because you trade someone doesn't mean you're "giving up on him."  Trades involve actually moving value for value, not junk for value.

He's right, those were terrible moves.  McCann would be 4th on this team with 16 goals

Captain UberHindsight with presentist bias.  Canucks should have kept Kassian, too?  How stupid to "give up on" Grabner...

McCann is only 22...so we don’t know what his upside is as he still has potential to get even better.  For a team like the Pens, a cost controlled asset (at least until after next season...his cap hit is less than Granlunds), he’s invaluable to them  (a guy right NOW, they can insert as a bottom six C or a top six winger.

Just glance at the rear view..don't fixate on the ****ing thing. Otherwise we crash on life's hwy.

It's a yr of development & 1 more sexy high pick. No point muddling that up. Gud & Pou assisted with that goal!

& McCann would likely have totally different numbers, if he'd stayed here. #Riggeddeckleague would've allowed opponents to run him over with regularity.

Apples & oranges..keep a stiff upper lip, & play the hand we're dealt!

Aegislash OP.

someone cross swords with me

Was disappointed to find out that it won't be for the 3DS. :( Can't keep up with all these devices. Guess I'll sit this one out for now.

They shouldn't even bother showing up to Rogers this year unless they plan on doing a trade or two to get some picks back.

From the 2007 draft, none of the Canuck picks ever played a single NHL game.  So it's like they had no picks at all.

Almost everywhere else?

They sort of remind me of the WCE Canucks, just with better goaltending.

How is Edmonton not in the playoffs when they have the best (maybe) player in the world?

Takes more then a few guys to make a team that can win.

any relation?

it hasn't got a lot of attention on CDC, but Utunen looks like a solid prospect for us. 

@Hairy Kneel "Virtanen" is one of the most common (if not the most common) Finnish surnames. Liken it to Smith or Johnson in NA. So maybe a distant relative

lets hope he was sufficiently shamed and is now motivated to make an actual effort. He took training camp for granted this year. 

Boucher is over a point per game on a poorer Comets team.

It's almost like being point per game in the AHL isn't difficult...

I believe he had either 40 or 43 goals by the 50 game mark.

Took him about 60 games to get 50. He scored 25 goals in his last 21 games. 

@Drive-By Body Pierce Link to the page?

Its way down on the page, maybe use search with some of the lyrics.

is it sampling from american woman? sounded kinda like that but exactly

How much are Marner and Matthews worth compare to McDavid ( 8 yrs, $100 million ) and Draisatil ( 8 yrs. $68 Million ) ?

@6string

If Matthews and Marner keep up this pace of putting up points, I see them coming in at more than McDavid and Draisatl.  Plus, the two are just better players anyway.  (Ha Ha Oiler fans!)

I see Matthews as 13 mil, and Marner as 10 mil.  

Alflives..I agree with those numbers.

And he's injured, so he's not playing tonight anyways.

Makes sense that they honour his achievement in a game involving the Canucks. I don't think that choice was coincidence.

@-Vintage Canuck--Thats even better !

Lol wtf is atheltties

k I'll say what everyone else is thinking: I don't get it

I tried using his writing as toilet paper.  Was far too irritating and already full of &%#@,

I used to like the X-Men in the early 80's. Then the stories got dumb.

X-Factor, that was a waste of the original X-men. 

Eventually I got tired of it.

It's funny I appreciate Batman (mostly, the idea of him needing a sidekick is just stupid, some of his rogues gallery is real stupid too), and Green Arrow, as they are the more grounded heroes. Even if they live in fictional cities. Maybe that's why I like the Longbow Hunters. They took Green Arrow and moved him to Seattle. 

I miss Craig Ferguson!! Never found Fallon much too funny again after discovering him.

I'd cry laughing at Ferguson, now maybe I chuckle at Fallon. Norton's pretty great, too. The Late Late Show and Graham Norton were/are a lot better set up for fun, and have more of a relaxed attitude in general. 

Kimmel's not bad, but he's easily 3rd out of 4 here.

It's true

Letterman was pretty good in his prime.

Too Many Cooks was hilarious, but around minute six it became a little overbearing.

OH GOOD, more super heroes,like we are all teenage fans boys and don't get enough comics turned into movies.How about something a little different.That Hollywood magazine "VARIETY "should change its name.

Nice, I need to catch up on all of season 5.

Let people enjoy things

My hate for Toronto is too strong, I hope Boston finishes them in Game 5 with Kadri's return. But I'll be watching Utica and the Marlies online, I wanna see our prospects play and get some idea who may be competing for the bigs next season.

I've decided that I can hope for a Leafs loss and not care what happens in Boston. I'm living on that edge. 

I don't care for either team - Maple Leafs- Bruins.  And it's odd that the Maple Leafs were the 1st team I ever knew.  I was 5, and my grandfather was a Leafs fan. But I am interested on who will win.  This is a very interesting Playoff series.

I hate the bruins but i hate the leafs way more

I hope they just beat the $&!# out of each other

I can't agree with that. I'm not sure if I hate the Leafs, or the media that loves the Leafs, or maybe both. Anyway, if the Leafs win the Cup or even have success in the playoffs, that's all Canadians will hear about for months. I'm not sure I can tolerate that. If the Bruins knock off the Leafs, I don't think they'll go on to the Cup finals, so it doesn't really matter. Anyone else want to open the paper at the end of June and see a headline that reads: "Matthews' Leafs Canadian Heroes With Canada's First Cup Championship In Over 25 Years". Not me. I'm pulling for WPG to bring a Cup north of the border.

Wait what... 

people still read newspapers?

Now watch the home team win every playoff game this year.

The wrath of Torts? PLD appears their glamour-kid, that'll get every chance at C.

Could see Wennberg to Habbies, easily.. Add a D-man & take back Chucky?

This is like a Goku vs. Vegeta match but way better.

Bouchard is the guy we pick if we're 6 or worse, IMO. Boqvist is our 4/5 pick and maybe even 2/3, though Svechnikov and Zadina could rival for 2/3 as well.

and we'll still get the 5th pick.

@Pears I'd rather a defenceman who can play defense and isn't undersized.  Bouchard puts up more than enough offense and brings a better rounded game.
