  1. Big Uncle I beg to differ. I have been watching since the 70s. Look at Bure's shooting percentage it was hig some years and very low in others.. It was not that great. He had tons of opportunities and missed a lot. He had tons of shots, got his goals based on his quantity of chances. Perhaps you are basing your comments on highlight packages. They tend to show the goals.
  2. Actually Bure was not great on breakaways. He scored many highlight goals on them but missed far more than he scored. This team is trying to compete with basically the same lineup as last year and they couldn't score then. The playoffs seem unlikely unless MG can make some bold moves.
  3. It's been a sham for years actually. Needs attention.
  4. and in the terms of the hockey team, another sellout!!!
  5. You might want to learn a bit more about him before making such a cheap comment.
  6. Lack of scoring has been a problem for 2 seasons now with the odd flourish. What this team has done for decades is to believe in players and hold onto them til they dry up. 'Well they scored 30 golas so the talent is there" kind of mentality.Tanti, Pederson,Skriko, Smyl, Naslund, all dried up to some amount. They also have to tghink that other players are improving so this can make past scorers appear less effective. Come on, where are the big moves MG?
  7. Edler did Canucks a favor by ending a a 2 minute span where there would be a 90% chance of them not scoring.

  11. Great Ronnie Stern interviews from his early Canuck days!The questions are pretty standard and it reviews some of his fights. It features a call in segment where some of the comments range from the comments range from really strange and bizarre to genuinely good. I have uploaded it in 3 parts. These are somewhat informative and entertaining for those who really followed Stern, The Canucks or hockey (fights) in the early 1990s. Along with dealing away Curt Fraser in 1983, I really hated them trading Stern to Calgary in 1991. Part 1 Part 2 Part 3

  13. Does anybody remember the legendary Paul Morris, house announcer at Maple Leaf Gardens?
  14. Inspired by the other Don Taylor thread in Canucks talk, these should be moved to the youtube thread:
