  1. Imagine the fuss 3 years ago? If people might have suggested Biega would end up being a better pro than Maddison Bowey...
  2. Namestnikov was miscast as a defensive forward. Failed as an offensive forward. My take anyway? Down to 11 or 12 minutes and Lias Andersson seems to have stolen his spot. Truly enough that may occur with Gaudette in the very near future? In the meantime Sutter is at least actually useful defensively.
  3. Haha y roasted my self laughing. @Nuxfanabroad award of the day for musical integration...
  4. Pending an IR placement; Edmonton recalls F Ryan Kuffner. With thanks @canuck2xtreme
  5. Florida assigns F Philip Chlapik Florida recalls F Ryan Kuffner With thanks @Tylez
  6. Minnesota assigns F Andrew Ladd to IR https://www.rotoworld.com/hockey/nhl/player/23614/andrew-ladd Minnesota recalls F Ryan Kuffner With thanks @Nail
  7. LOL, that's how come we can recruit so well these days. Free Wi Fi, everywhere!
  8. I absolutely love the almost universal respect & love for bulldog! Unheard of for a depth player in Canucks history who was not a fighter. Just played with courage, pace and passion. Good luck, Canuck for life !
  9. All about that Zzzzzzzzz factor?
  10. We can sacrifice Loui Eriksson! Not too many would complain? But yes, Honka requires waivers.
  11. Pietrangelo > Parayko. Most likely different in 3 years with age? Parayko is good / great. A fantastic player. But it ain't that close yet/ Pietrangelo is sublime. Will Parayko have a 26 minute, 50 point all situations ceiling??
  12. I'll trade ya a Keith Primeau, Or Leafs game worn outdoor signed jersey for one from Savoie on the Ice.. #challenge.

  14. Really, a couple of controllable bounces? Controllable, not bad bounces. Marky leaving a big rebound for Kass to quick tip over to Draisaitl for goal one. A sloppy pass by Sutter ended up being the winning goal by McDavid. It could be argued Smith interfered with Pearson, leaving one player late & a lane open for Kassian to get a transition goal. That was a bad bounce, but the other two goals? Gave Edmonton the game to steal. But the real reason we lost the game? It could be argued we were a little chaotic. Not in perfect sync. I don't blame that, its just game one. It was our PP. Edler scored as one PP had just elapsed. Boeser 4:04, Miller 4:40, Petey 4:32. Its tooooo much PP time without sustained pressure by our top unit. The 2knd PP looked more dangerous. Attacked pucks to win & keep possession. Not that same desperation in the 1st unit. Our PP needed to win us that game!
  15. Edmonton, when they had the puck, did move up ice pretty well. An area of our game I was worried about as the game went along was our transition D.
  16. @Tylez Can we do a simple spreadsheet fix please? Casey DeSmith has a non roster cap penalty. He's no longer our property. Thanks twice!
  17. Ferland or Miller? I'm not fussed either way. I understand why some get worked up. I want goals from our first line.
  18. He handles the puck better than Ferland. Does the glue stuff, battle, check, but also can trade pucks. Maybe he should be with Petey?
  19. Contracts considered, not unhappy with Ferland at all. I just want to see him with Horvat and Miller. Can Miller play LW?
  20. At least until I saw his contract? I was keen on Zuccarello over Ferland. Or, wishful thinking, Panarin. Don't get me wrong. I was very excited to add a good player, M Ferland. But I like your observation about speed. To me speeeeeeed & skill in a 3rd winger with Petey & Boes would have uncorked a whole new game style. A whole new level of offensive potential? Especially with Hughes having joined us.
  21. I'm not quite sure how Leivo & in particular Pearson looked dangerous. And Sutter did not? Line shuffling and PP time I guess. Boeser either, rotating the puck to Edler aside. The 2knd PP really looked engaged, pressure to the corner, pressure to the front of the net. Need that work rate versus pretty passing. Maybe the first unit needs someone who just wants it more. And too much dump and chase 5 on 5, with the bottom 6. We need to go full bottle puck possession. And wow, is Hughes ever an asset in that regard!
