  1. What would it take for the fans to be finally get Aqualoonie to sell the team banners and widespread chants? We need ideas where is the team tank commander Uncle LALEET?

      @fanfor42He has NFL potential and is still young enough to get a look down south. The CFL is his fallback option.

       

      He should not rush back and jeopardize a potentially more lucrative NFL opportunity this off-season.

  6. Any relatively expensive burgers in the lower mainland that are actually worth the price?

  7. Not sure why people are freaking out; we'll sign PK Subban for like $2-$3 million and that's our RHD issue solved :bigblush:

  8. Setting up private club tonight for political discussion with SN's ok.  Let me know if you'd like an invite 

  9. 650 saying JR will be on at 3:30.

      Didn't say much except that they are cap strapped. Will try to add a forward or two to the bottom six. Doesn't expect to have the wiggle room to improve the d core. Meh.

  10. Can't wait to come home from work and hop on CDC for some politically charged religious debate.

  11. Will management free up cap space before the beginning of free agency? It's been pretty quiet in Canuck land.

      @Coconuts Exactly much rather draft in the top 7 a coule good classes coming up in 2023 and 2024. Trade JT Miller even though he is a great player and retool. 

       

      The age and construction is not in line to be a contender. They need to get younger, faster, more skilled and harder to play against.

      Talk to me in 3 years from now. Then the Canucks will finally be out of bad contracts and hopefully will not have added more bad ones.

       

      In the meantime they will continue to be stuck as a mediocre borderline playoff team not bad enough to draft in the top 10 consistently to get an impact player. But yet not good enough to make noise in the playoffs if they happen to sneak in.

  13. Dual offer sheet the same team?  I wouldn't do it, but it'd be fun watching the fallout if someone did:

  14. 3 young ladies in a row having status updates. has that ever happened before? good looking ladies.

  15. I hope they put the 'Stanley Cup Playoffs' paint on the ice this year. Really irritated me to an irrational point last year that they didn't have it. lol

    1. Bruce Boudreau

      Bruce Boudreau

      In the states they need it. "The hockey". Also bring back the giant stanleycup path other jerseys we know it's &^@#ing playoff time.

       

      Also why is the NBA playoff slogan win or go home when it is the NFL that has single game eliminations?

  16. Miller, Motte Rathbone to NYR for Lafreniere, Kravtsov, Schneider, and a 1st? 
     

    Then Boeser and Hamonic to Pittsburgh for Marino, Kapanen, 1st round pick

     

    Lastly, Pearson back to L.A for Kupari, Lemieux

     

    Ride this lineup for the rest of the season: 

     

    Laf/Petey/Garland

    Kravtsov/Horvat/Kapanen

    Hoglander/Kupari/Podkolzin

    Lemieux/Lammikko/Highmore

    Dickinson

     

    OEL/Marino

    Hughes/Schenn

    Myers/Schneider

    Poolman

     

    Idealy try and get rid of Poolman and Dickinson for whatever picks.


    My ideal trade deadline.

    1. Bruce Boudreau

      Bruce Boudreau

      No way overpay for Laffy and Schneider that throw in first doesn't make up the loss of Miller and the Canucks top prospect Jack Rathbone. Kravstov is a wild card.

       

      Much rather Garland to the Rangers for Chytil, Lundqvist, and a 1st to start negotiations.

    1. Bruce Boudreau

      Bruce Boudreau

      Not much for Jar or Hal maybe a little for Slav?

  18. What's your favorite dessert?

     

    Me:  Tiramisu.  I really like to get the family size at Whole Foods, but it's only 4 servings.  I could eat tiramisu all day along. 

  19. Mixed feelings about today: overjoyed that one of my childhood heroes, Willie O'Ree, is getting his number retired; sad to see that there's still a large number of racists who publicly object to it, minimize it or both

      @Undrafted Do you feel like the Canucks roster and management is diverse enough as it stands? Rutherford talks a big game about wanting fresh perspectives in hockey ops view from a women and/or minority. Why not make Harman Dayal aka the "boy genius" Indian analytic analyst part of the team? He is only like 21 years old and already is considered one of the best analysts/writers/reporters in Vancouver as his content is behind a paywall on the subscriber based "The Athletic".

       

      The Hockey Diversity Alliance membership has really dwindled and much of it is due imo to the presence of an unscrupulous Evander Kane as one of the original leaders of the movement. According to Akim Aliu they initially planned to have way more guys involved but have had guys back out because they didn't want to get politicized or lose potential marketing opportunities because it might hurt their brand.

       

      PK Subban is an example of this, he is the main NHL player in the Scotiabank hockey is for everyone advertisements yet he maintains no connection to his fellow minorities by way of speaking out or being involved  with the HDA due some of their controversial membership.

  20. Does anyone else find Pete Davidson very untalented and annoying? 

    1. Bruce Boudreau

      Bruce Boudreau

      He is pale and gangly and he tries to be unabashedly normal as much as possible and not act like a celebrity or rich famous guy.

       

      I don't get it.. maybe he is just packing or is that great in the bedroom... :ph34r:

       

      Also Arian Grande like most celebrities very overrated looks wise she is tiny and cakes on too much makeup.

       

      Looks like a 12 year old trying too hard to look and act all grown up.

  21. Red Wings came onto the ice to The Black Dahlia Murder as an intro. Just badass. I wish we had a real DJ. I mean maybe something in the middle to appease most folk.

      @Chickenspear They need to get some players with an edge and bigger bodies. Doesn't not suit a charmin team like the Canucks.

       

      Better fit for Vegas imo if anything...

      @Phil_314 They had Van Halen before and I thought it was pretty solid myself.
