Bruce Boudreau

Bah, he looks like many kids do when they do as much cardio as he does. Lean. 

Could also be sleep deprivation if he's at all tired. That or it might be the lighting or perhaps naturally gaunt eyes.

Wait, are you saying they don't have professional Hollywood lighting and photography in the AHL? Weird how that's not a priority.

Think that's asking for a bit too much. Hansen&Markstrom may be traded but doubt that happens before the season. If it is it'll be after if things aren't going well to do a bit of a shakeup.

And we don't need another top 6 forward and Edler may be able to be the pmd if he finds his form again.

^ My thought is Corrado becomes the puck moving d and makes the team on the third pair. Edler can produce offensive but isn't a pp qb. Guess we will see if Burrows can rebound and provide top six production.

we don't know who benning

wants to keep...it doesn't have anything to do with who we want to keep

4-month ban to the repeat offender for biting...for breaking backs with your knee...FIFA says???

^In the eyes of fans he is always diving so they thought once again he was exaggerating.

@viking mama

The knee went undetected because the Colombian player was going up to challenge in the air and jumped up on Neymar's back and drove his knee into his spine simultaneously.

Apparently the injury is not really serious, luckily and he should be back on the field in a month or so. But yeah Brazil also losing Silva was huge who is their captain and best defende...

I still wouldn't count them out tho

Says the guy who worships Burrows. 

I get the impression that Green doesn't like Boeser a whole lot. Seems like he was reluctant to have him make the team, despite having an unreal camp. Also, in his interview after training camp had ended, he seemed to indirectly say things to undermine what Boeser did in training camp, and now here we are. Opening night, and he's sitting. 

^^ Don't assume and make rumors. People are way too gulible. You know nothing.

So you got a bunch of our smart people.  So that's where they went...

I just bought a Wonder Woman t-shirt yesterday as well...smh.

Hey calm down I liked her just not the whole lass of truth and cross armed force field.

She is basically a female Captain America....

Still hot though. Not my favorite super hero though...

Yeah I am just playing lol. I agree movie got good ratings cause last DC movies were ass.

Barrie is a entertaining to watch let's get this straight this ain't about wins and losses right now at this stage of the Canucks it's more about putting butts in seats and being a entertaining team to watch again.

Winning back the fans with energetic fast physical and skilled hockey.

Barrie gives them what they haven't had since Ehrhoff. D don't sell tickets Offence does.

They are gonna suck regardless why not have some fun and get a good offensive d man to play with the young skill forwards coming up?

Price might be crazy but Benning has said numerous times he is looking for a #1 skill center who can be playmaker

And a #1 pp QB/ offensive d man to put up points.

you're correct Chip... just think the price would be so high that we'd lose too much and it would be a 1 step fwd 2 back kind of thing 

Well said S'all. Trading for Barrie is exactly that scenario - one step forward, two steps back.

@Chip Kelly, for me it's not wins and losses, it's about rebuilding the right way.

What is @UticaHockey opinion since you actually watch and follow the minor league team more closely than most.

When was he scratched? If so, don't AHL teams usually have a scratch cycle?

He was leading the Comets in points (2nd right now by 1 point). 

But he would probably be better at wing. He's most likely the fastest and most agile player we have.

A few posters from Utica have written as much and I believe it to be true, given from what I saw in preseason.

His D game is weak. Stecher is a massive improvement yet not all that much bigger, or any for that matter.

I love how they've accepted the fact they won't be getting a lottery pick lol 

I have him slightly behind Bouchard but it's close.   It really comes down to who's willing to work hardest in that range and Dobson has impressed me in that regard.  Zero complaints from me if we pick him.

If Dhaliwal didn't report it, it's not true.

@Chip Kelly he hasn't been a notably high scoring player (not bad just not "elite"), so thats probably the main area. But if he gets into the net front in the NHL like he does now it'll pay off. My only concern is his attitude about being here, so the combine interview will be important. 

1) Dahlin

2) Svechnikov

3) Zadina

4) Boqvist/Hughes

5) Hughes/Boqvist

Tkachuk’s an easy pick at 6 though. 

Depends on whether he's a dirty punk like his brother. If he just plays a hard, gritty, and clean game, I'm fine with that. Arrogant punks do not fit in Benning's system of character with guys like Boeser and Horvat.

Disagree, I think the majority of the discussion surrounding change began after Edmonton drafted 1st overall 3 years in a row. The rules were already drafted by the time Toronto tanked for Matthews. 

perhaps, I was mainly referencing teams that have tried to lose and tank. Your right that the oilers started the change but other teams doing it as well has caused drastic change. Lots of teams try to lose for top pick, which is wrong, but unfortunately the Canucks have been trying to win and just can't. 

What a joke New Fing Jersey wins #1?! Philly gets #2?

Canucks really are facking cursed forever despite the odds even if they were favorable would still suck.

You can't really use Sweden as a good example, although I would admit that they and Germany and other European countries have not handled the mass migration and escape from wars well.

Take the example of a boss groping his secretary on an ongoing basis. Say he does it over 50 times before it's finally reported.

Here, that would be one case with multiple times.

In Sweden, IIRC, it would count as 50 cases.

Also, I've worked in immigration (albeit on a provincial level). The vetting is extremely thorough, at least on our end. From what I've heard, it's as lengthy or more at the federal level.

@thejazz97 I hope you are right. Hopefully Trudeau doesn't relax procedures just to show how progressive Canada is in comparison to the US.

Me too! Numbers I don't care about as much but we definitely shouldn't relax vetting

I don't think he should be in the AHL but if we won't fire the idiot behind the bench, it's for the best.  Ideally the best solution is to let Jarvis coach the rest of the season.

@Quantum Thank you. It's bad enough people are fine with him being scratched in meaningless games. On top of that they want him in the minors and Rodin to take his spot next season. He has almost 2 full seasons of quality AHL production  under his belt. Yet because he is adjusting to a higher level and brand new team people think he is simply not NHL ready yet. 

The problem is he also needs NHL quality coaching and he sure as hell won't get it here.

think they will resign here if not traded for the rest of their days at a decent price and become third line players

@ReggieBush After seeing what Burrows did. He is not being a team guy if he is holding up a good trade. His saving grace is if they want to actually keep him. He was a 9th round pick from a country who didnt have a history of NHLers HE should be grateful like Burrows.

Hansen get5ing traded!!!

The guy at the Wendys drive thru window told me the mushroom bacon cheese is coming back.

Some guy tol' me yesterday to look fwd to tomorrow. Wonder what he says today?

Chip is so onto something. Owner of the wings owns little Ceasar's.....   deals confirmed.

I would crush a burrito right now

Make it a Mucho size  !

My, my, it must be fate!  

My fortune-telling burrito, which I got from the third cousin twice removed of the guy who made the hi-def camera which was used to take the picture of Looch (or was that Sasquatch?) outside Rogers Arena, tells me that it cannot confirm or deny whether that is fact.

HOWEVER, the next time I shook my magic burrito, a grain of rice shaped like a Stanley Cup fell on my Canuck plate-- PLAN THE PARADE!!!!!!!

Great hockey in the East too.  Really loving the caps and flyers series.

Best day of hockey in at least a year IMO

@King Heffy I stistikl think though that any team in the West remaining is as good or better than anything in the East including Bolts and Penguins.

they willed it. integrity triumphs

Hard work makes it's own luck.

^ Yeah right real classy guys like Lynch and Sherman. Karma is a bitch. They should watch out.

I still haven't even seen it. I can't believe it's been in theatres so long.

@Dazzle the problem wasn't the action. There was plenty of that. The plot was very weak as well as the character development. The first half of the movie the Avengers are not getting along with each other and then all of a sudden just put their differences aside for what seems like a quick let's save the world ending in the second half of the movie. I think they tried to hard to make the movie funny and didn't spend enough time talking about the characters back story. Many people...

thought movie was so good to see it multiple times which I think has contributed to the over hype it has gotten.

@Alf @Alflives No. Maybe just a mental breakdown. Is this your 2nd account by the way?

@RRypien37 Wouldn't that be nice if I was smart enough to think of a way to make a decent living off being my own boss.

This society has turned me into a methodical creature of habit. I need structure yet at times it is too much and monotonous.

Hi Chip,

i only have one account.  15000+ posts in one account - I'm going for the passing yards record!

Keep doing you Alf,

Whatever makes you happy. 

@SabreFan1 I believe that can only be invoked by the official opposition party when they share a minority government. It kicks off a new election, so typically they wouldn't call a vote of no confidence unless they are sure they can form a majority

Although, in doing my due diligence, it's not actually called a vote of no confidence, but rather a dissolution of parliament.

In some US states, cities, and towns, voters can vote "no confidence" and force all new candidates to run.  It very rarely happens though.

that's like being a prize fighter and taking money to lay down...very unethical ....the players will always go out and try their best...i know i would...if we end up with a great pick , fine but not on purpose,

Didnt the Sabres tank on purpose? 

Not saying you should tank from the start but after trade deadline you know you are a seller and have no real shot to do anything in the playoffs. Plus by now with what 11 games left everyone should be hoping for losses.

I swear I gave like 80% of the girls in Europe a second look, opposed to like 10% here. It's not even close.

And Croatian girls >

^Those girls are nice and tall too..

How many millions do you make per year just to not play hockey Lups? Where's your God now?

NIiiiiiiiice :D

I'm going to miss yelling Booooooth at the TV set. Dumb penalty... Booooooth! Failed tap-in... Boooooth! Blue-line in rush out of no-where, just when we ceased to expect 'em...Boooooooth!

op

c-c-c-c-c-c-combo breaker!!!!

Awaiting AllKill post.
