  1. I would offer Lind + OJ + Second Lind is trending the right way despite putting up 0 points in 7 games @ NHL level he'll get another shot, and if anyone knows a thing or two about development paths its Det. If anyone can get the most out of OJ it would be Det plus he would have lots of chances for ice time here. Second is self explanatory. Keep in mind Bertuzzi only played like 9 games this year
  2. yawn.. Stanley Cup finals is the best showcase of hockey there is
  3. getting some Petey vibes from the North Van kid
  4. I'm all over Edler on 1 year deals in the 1.5-2.5 range, I want guys like Rathbone and OJ to take the spot from Eddy and not be gifted. Injuries are inevitable and you need solid D who can step in the line-up and play legit minutes, doesn't hurt to have some depth. Not to mention the fact that Edler on a discount gives us some extra cap to play witth
  5. Only way it makes sense is if Tampa retained 1.5-2m, I like the idea though, better than most proposals on you see.
  6. one of the better, more realistic proposals ive seen in recent times. Like the idea of Grigorenko on a reclamation project but definitely not on 3 years, don't think his play this year warrants a 3 yr deal on almost 2.5m, would give him 1 year 2m show me contract Anisimov Im partial on, I would take him 1 year under a mil for sure, nothing more. Paquette I am all over would be a great add for the 4th line Hakanpaa I have never heard of or seen really seen play but I would say its pretty safe to assume hes good at D if he managed to go +0 with only 1 point in 41 games, as well as the fact that he dressed 41 games with 1 point lol, adds some much needed size on our back end hopefully take that tough front of net bruiser role off of Eddie a bit? Would love some info on this guy
  7. I guess this mentality is why only 1 Swedish captain has ever won the Stanley cup in NHL history I partially retract this statement because take a look at Gabe Landeskog tonight and what he did, that fight, sticking up for his teammate Rantanen after a questionable hit, comes back sets up a goal, scores a goal, Gordie Howe Hattrick, thats how you set the tone as a leader, how you can tell me fighting isn't apart of the fabric of hockey is laughable
  8. I guess only fools stand-up for their teammates then? sounds pretty selfish not to defend your teammate to not risk any unnecessary injuries... I could literally name 50 players off the top of my head who were elite players who also fought, are those guys all fools & not "smart ones'? I will die on a hill defending the Sedins but a lot of nights of they had more push-back or truculence they would have gotten a lot more of the respect they deserved for themselves
  9. Fighting is apart of the code, apart of the fabric of hockey. Not because it generates money lmfao. I'll put my house on the fact that more players themselves support fighting than don't. Dirty players need some way to be held accountable, as well as a way to relieve tension in a game if dirty plays are going back and forth. It is a much needed equalizer and aspect of the game of hockey. If you think fighting is just about generating money i recommend that you check out the documentary 'Ice Guardians' on Netflix
  10. Jimbos 2017 Draft looking pretty good rn

      2014 as a whole looks more impressive.  Too bad things weren't handled differently (eg., trading a couple of them for garbage players)

      Too early to tell aside from Pettersson. I don’t want to get too hopeful, being a Canucks far for so long has taught me never to get my hopes up

  11. If youre an anime/Samurai fan check-out Yasuke on netflix, show goes crazy 

  12. People may hate on Virt pick but look at the player picked directly before and after him and tell me who youd rather have

      But..but...we coulda had Ehlers! 

      Or Pastrnak!

       

      But considering Vancouver normally has first round complete busts. (At least until Benning came along)

      At least Jake is closing on 100 points, and we got 311 games out of him.

       

      It's the expectations were higher.

      Could you a center like the other 1st round selection Benning made that same draft year.:P

  13. What has Florida ever won except top 3 picks? How many top 3 picks have we had compared to the hawks ?
  14. The panthers ? that might be one of the worst franchises to pick, hawks were garbage from 2000-2008
  15. 33 points in 79 career games for petey lmfao
  16. Benning is playing the long game, he’s knows the window isnt now, it’s the next 4-5 seasons from now. The next 2 offseasons are the most crucial in franchise history
  17. Intentional year of regression in order to benefit the team long run, I respect benning for not mortgaging the future to keep his job like a lot of gms would do
  18. It’s crazy it’s been 12+ years since we drafted CoHo, the 07/08 season was when I was 10 years old and was the first year I could “understand” the league and the game. I remember Bob McKenzie being so happy for Canucks fans it’s a shame how back injuries derailed his career

      I still think there's more here than was revealed to the media. I find it interesting there was no reports in Buffalo of Hodgson being high maintenance. I'm thinking Kelser had a hand in it. Kesler was worried a young centre was going to take away his ice time. Gillis would side with a vet over a rookie. Even if Hodgson's agent/Dad was pestering Gillis. He got suckered by Buffalo into moving him for Kassian. Unless doctors told Gillis that Hodgson's back was deteriorating, in which case that's worse that he used an excuse to try and pawn him off.

      Being so young and naive I genuinely believed he was gonna be our joe Sakic or Stevie Y like the scouts were telling us

  19. Gauds profession this year should hopefully Be like “upgrading” our bottom 6
  20. This pickup will help our transition and breakout game a lot. Hughes - Schmidt Edler - Myers Juolevi - Weegar this would definitely be a step up from last year
