Should the Canucks bring back Cody Hodgson? #WeWantCody
iinatcc replied to DonaldBrashear's topic in Canucks Talk
#CodyCrybabies -
With the NBA doing play in tournaments how about if the NHL adapts a similar process for Wild Card Teams. In that instead of a play in tourament it will be a TRIPLE THREAT MATCH!!! So the Playoff Bracket of the Western Confernece (using last year's standings) it will look like this Pacific Vegas Edmonton LA Central Colorado Dallas Minnesota Wild Card Seattle Winnipeg Instead now the Wild Card teams (and other teams lower in the standings will complete under TRIPLE THREAT RULES!!!) Wild Card Triple Threat (Best of 7 match up) Seattle (7th) vs. Vancouver (11th) vs. St. Louis (12th) Winnipeg (8th) vs. Calgary (9th) vs. Nashville (10th) Winner in each advanced to the wild card spots So here are the rules The Rink will be converted to a Triangular Format and each corner will be a team's Goal. Offside, Neutral Zone, Icing still applies but changed due to the dimension of the triangle Faceoffs are done at the center of the triangle with 3 players of each team taking the draw Fights are also done in a Triple Threat Match as 5 min penalties are still given to a player of each team. If the game is tied between the three teams at the end of regulation all 3 teams will be involved in OT. If the scored is tied between two teams only 2 teams will be involved and the Rink will be reformatted to a traditional Oval Rink. OT rules are now done in Elimination format. If a team is scored on they are eliminated. What do you think?

(Trade) Canucks trade Pearson to Montreal
iinatcc replied to billabong's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Here's the problem Pearson is not consistent. Canucks army wrote about his inconsistencies when got extended and if he was consistent the Pens wouldn't have given him up for Gudbransson. -

Considering the flat cap, the team friendly deals wingers in their late 20s or early 30s were taking at the time it was an over payment . Also when other GMs are upset the deal Benning made on the extension you know it was a bad deal -
So I am on vacation and visited here the first time in days and this is me now ...

(Trade) Canucks trade Pearson to Montreal

I don't know about it being a decent contract. If I recall there were teams that were pretty upset about the deal Pearson got because it meant having to either add more term or money to resign their top 9 / 3rd line forwards. I forgot the players but I recall LA and Philly were some of those teams not happy with the ripple effect the Pearson extension had on their respective negotiations. I believe Friedman even reported this. If the contract you structured for a player is so bad that even other teams see it, then it's pretty bad -

He should have been traded in 2021. Benning's bad contract costs the team another pick -
[Report] Canucks name Quinn Hughes as captain
iinatcc replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
There was that incident with Schenn and when he was asked about it he threw the f-bomb due to frustration. I get people here don't like the media but it doesn't look good when the captain can't act like that especially when things are tough. I guess the thing about Miller is that he is who he is at this point personality wise. Hughes and Pettersson still have more room to grow as NHL players. -
[Report] Canucks name Quinn Hughes as captain
iinatcc replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
I don't think it's him striking fear really scares me (since he's not exactly that kind of player) but it's him emotions getting the better of him. When things are good, it's great but when things are bad it becomes a distraction and his handling of the media is not exactly ideal. If the organization wants a fresh start from all the drama, Miller wearing the C is quite risky To me Hughes and Pettersson were the only logical choices (granted Canucks can extend Pettersson long term). Their age assures they will still be the best players and on top form in 7 to 8 years time. While Miller bring captain but possibly regressing in 3 to 4 years might be problematic. It's always ideal to have one of your best players wearing the C imo -
While it's possible the initial reports were overblown, I wouldn't put it past the PR department in any hockey organization to try and sweep this under the rug and downplay what really happened. At this point who knows, but if story comes out that there is indeed more to this than the official statements, I wouldn't be surprised.

[Report/Rumour] Elias Pettersson Contract Talks
iinatcc replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Hmmm have drafting Overagers been historically a good thing? If memory serves me right the answer is no. Seems like a shortcut move to me. -

Miller is fine with the A. But him being the Captain would really scare me. Emotion is one thing but losing it is something else I'm fine with Hughes as captain, probably the most logical and sexiest choice.
