  1. Frank Nazar a potential fit for the Canucks? https://www.vancouverisawesome.com/canucks-hockey/should-the-canucks-draft-frank-nazar-5551695
  2. I would love to see Washington take Miroshnichenko. They don't shy away from Russians and he would be a great fit with no one better to learn from in the NHL than Ovechkin as tries to play a similar bulldog type style. He has potential to be a 30 goal scorer or flame out.
  3. The Canucks could use some more speed all over the lineup. Lambert reminds me of a guy who could be a Mason Raymond type on the Canucks. I think second line winger is his ceiling. His hockey IQ and compete/consistency is not where you want it to be though imo.
  4. Cosentino thinks he has potential as a 2 way minute muncher #4 d man. Not great but solid.
  5. That Gleb Trikozov is intriguing as a potential second or third if he lasts that long. Very young draft eligible August 2004 birthday even younger than expected top 12 pick Jonathan Lekerrimaki.
  6. His dad was a dirty SOB famous for knee on knee and other questionable hits. If he plays with even 50% of his dad's edge the Canucks have something here...

  8. @Warhippy Has been on Maveric Lameroux long lanky right shot d who absolutely killed the NHL combine tests. He was top 10 in everything basically! He was a projected late first to early second before the combine but the lack of quality d with size and mobility and the fact he is a right hand shot should secure him as a first round lock now projected in the 15-32 range along with Bichsel. I would like the Canucks to take a chance on him at 15 unless they think they can still land him with a trade down. The Canucks most glaring need is a future top 4 RHD to partner Hughes and play in the top 4. Maveric Lameroux could be the perfect fit as the Tyler Myers replacement in 2-3 years.
  9. Hate Tampa. 2 years a row don't need a third of them being in the finals game. The next game is pivotal. If Tampa wins it's going 7 games if Rangers find a way then Igor is better.
  10. The two #91's going at it. 2 minority brothers of the Hockey Diversity Alliance. Bad look for Kane unless the HDA and Akin Aliu has already booted Kane.
  11. Well it has been a disasterous couple of weeks for Ferrari. The contructors championship is slipping away while they continue to lose the good will they had built up and have reverted back to the Ferrari of the last decade that continue to make bad strategy calls that end up boning their driver's championship chances. Max Verstappen and the RedBulls have a comfortable lead and don't face the same amount of pressure from a team like Ferrari who hasn't won in over a decade like they did last year from a well oiled machine that is Mercedes who are beginning to come back at Ferrari as the season progresses now. Hoping Ferrari can keep up in the development battle as Mercedes are rapidly catching them while RedBull continues to widen the gap every race. This season could get spicy yet in the second half as Mercedes push hard to catch Ferrari while Ferrari try to stay on Red Bull's tails so they can't waltz to a double championship.
  12. That was a surprise result but Belgium also didn't have arguably the top goal keeper in the world in Champions league winner superstar goalkeeper Thibault Courtois.
  13. Oh man. Reminds me of the Canadian Men's basketball team. Money and entitlement always the downfall. Can't just play for the love of the game and the pride for the country. It's purely transactional these days..
  14. He should be based on current projection. Canucks probably have 3 guys they like about the same around there. If those guys are off the board the prudent thing would be to trade down especially if a Russian is falling and the Canucks capitalize on another team taking the chance where they won't.
  15. Gotta say everything you read about Marco Kasper is saying he is a safe solid pick at 15 high floor and high NHL certainty. He can be a quality third liner hopefully a center in the NHL in 2-3 years. He already has a decent rame and game that is close to pro ready and it helps that he has now played in the top Swedish league against grown men already. He should be able to jump straight to the NHL without having to waste time with Cull in Abbotsford.
  16. Peyton Manning could be a great analyst if he wanted to do it seriously. He should jump ship to NBC instead of clowning around on the Manning cast. Sunday Night Football needs a replacement for Collingsworth.
  17. How do we even know he is going to be any good? Last I checked he is pretty a sore guy and doesn't really like to compliment players especially if they are a qb. Brees is leaving NBC after just 1 season maybe trying to jump ship to Fox with Buck and Aikman chasing the big money at ESPN with Monday Night Football.
  18. Who are some realistic d targets the Canucks can acquire?

     

    Looking at a guy like Justin Schultz.

      I would consider doing a sign/trade involving Boeser to NJ for Mukhamudullin (or maybe even Ball plus a pick).  Rumor was that there was interest from NJ for one of our wingers (Boeser/Garland) at some point.  Hockey trade that benefits both clubs and not ridiculous on the value which most proposals are on CDC.  I know for sure that Shakir and Podz were on at least two Russian National teams together (Zlodeyev may have been teammates as well but I can't remember that clearly) as they came up through the ranks and that couldn't hurt for them to have at least one comrade on the team:). 

    3. Kuzy

      I think Manson is exactly the kind of player we need in our top 4.

    4. King Heffy

      Manson please.  No more defencemen who can't play defence.

  19. Agree. They have some guys who are not afraid to mix I up though in Yakov Trenin, Tanner Jeannot, and Luke Kunin. Some solid pest potential.
  20. Hate both teams not wat hing this series. Tampa goingnto take it though obviously and play the Florida Panthers in round 2.
  21. Don't care for either team but it is a hard hitting series like Bruins vs Caps was in the first round I will watch a few games...
  22. Kings can pull this off Lemieux will get in Evander Kane's face and punish the Oilers d all series not to mention running Mike Smith if he gets a chwnce with him wandering. Go Kings Go!!! *Cartman voice*
