      Hmmm maybe, with Montoya going he's probably one of the best options avaliable in free agency.

      I'd throw him a tryout to push for the job. Tough call though

      He's good in small doses.

      Fin is the Canucks mascot. He likes Shane Doan apparently, good stuff.

  3. Wow, Sami :( Never saw that coming.

  4. Not gonna bash the kid. But I am going to question Canucks ability to recruit players .... again. Last summer they let their PP quarterback go, and could only attract 4th liners and Sturm. This summer, it was rumored GMs around the league thought Canucks were front runner for Schultz. Now he signs with a different team. I hope Gillis has a plan. There is a grant total of 1 PP quarterback on the market this summer, they don't become available very often - Gillis has already failed to sign 2 of them. Nucks also have 4 other massive holes to fill (top 4 d-man to play w/ Edler, 3rd line cetnre, playmaker for Kes and backup for Cory). I just hope there's a plan.
  5. @DarrenDreger: Canucks file "cutdown" arbitration on Mason Raymond. Q.O is $2.6 million. Salary can't drop more than to $2.21 million if Van wins arb case." Anyone know what this means?

      Also means he can't get offer sheets I believe.

      Apparently the Canucks can offer 85% of his salary anyways for his next contract, so this is really just a ploy to protect him from offer sheets from other teams - From info on HF Boards

      ^ Ya, it helps to explain the Canucks issues last yr.

      I read the article.. I really shows that Puck possession is the key to win the game and it starts with D. Ehrhoff loss was costly and we still did not find the replacement. We traded for marc andre gragnani but i really doubt his defensive ability.

    4. RunningWild

      RunningWild

      Yap. From 2nd to 8th is a large drop for a team that supposed to be a puck possession one. They need to find a puck possession partner for Edler. Garrison fits that bill.

  6. I miss Sedinery. October yet?

  8. Shea Weber joined the Moj Thursday night on #TEAM1040. Hear the full interview here: http://ow.ly/aZs5q Prepare to cry, he was a Habs fan growing up - not a Nucks fan :(

      Doesnt mean sh**!!!! Growing up I loved the Leafs. That'd be one of the last teams I'd ever play for

      So he says he was a Habs fan.

      He's totally gonna hop on the Canucks bandwagon. Yup, Shea Weber's a bandwagoner. :P

  9. @CanucksFutures: #canucks prospect Frank Corrado is a finalist for the #OHL Defenseman of the Year. Winner will be announced tomorrow.

  10. @BradZiemer: "So much for #Canucks making Vigneault available for interviews this week. Just spotted flying out of YVR. Hope it's not a 1-way ticket." Pretty strange he didn't do a post season conference, never saw a coach not do one. Strange.

      he is available for interviews, he is on his way to yul for an interview

  11. Got to check out @strombone1 (apparently Lus twitter account). "Dude...get your broad under control! Heard that somewhere"

  12. Tweet I saw: "Bad news for Nicklas Jensen. Reports out of Norway is that he has suffered a concussion and things aren't great. #Canucks" Anyonw heard anything about this? I thought he was w/ Wolves?

      ^^ Lol. I meant cause he didn't play with the Wolves last night. So I guess he's still with them then?

  13. Time to switch to the defensivly stifling boring trap hockey type system. Won Boston the Cup last yr, those systems have let LA, STL, Nash and possibly PHX advance.

  14. Of the 4 Western teams to advance (assuming PHX does), only LA spends to the cap. This is more proof that drafting is EVERYTHING. And Gillis has drafted no one, the farm is bare.

    1. The Horvatian One

      The Horvatian One

      The one guy he drafts Hodgson, and he gets traded for jack.

    2. RunningWild

      RunningWild

      Gillis was given a 1st round top 10 pick when he took this job. Drafted Hodgy. Hodgy was the only good draft selection, but he then asked for a trade. Gillis has to answer for a depleted farm team.

    3. canucks3322

      canucks3322

      he drafted Hodgson who asked for a trade we got Schorder,Rodin,Jensen,Connauton in the minors ...

  15. Bye Gillis. Thanks for the wonderful trades this yr and the 'no prospects' on the farm. Future looks bright :(

      Trade Kesler for Hodgson!!!

  16. Awesome article on scoring chances in this series - Edler better at EV than you think: http://www.nucksmisconduct.com/2012/4/20/2962903/behind-the-numbers-scoring-chance-data-analysis

  17. No one can stop a puck in the Philly series. Lol. Exact opposite of Canucks series.

  18. Wowsa, Torres is at it again. Hossa down, Hossa down.

    1. The Brahma Bull

      The Brahma Bull

      That's gonna be a huge suspension.

    2. RunningWild

      RunningWild

      From the angle they showed, Torres left his feet. Kronwall left his feet to hit Kesler this yr and no suspension.

    3. The Brahma Bull

      The Brahma Bull

      Yeah, that's true but the nhl is in love with kronwall's hits and kes had the puck.

  19. To those who wanted David Jones at trade deadline, he's apparently not a Nucks fan: @djones5454

      it seems that a lot of canuck fans aren't canuck fans either....only when we're winning.

      JustJokinen!

      Why would he be a Canucks fan? He plays for a division rival.

  20. Samuelsson, 3 pts in 2 games. To late to get him back?
