[PGT] Los Angeles Kings at Vancouver Canucks | Nov. 18, 2022
Darius replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
So useless that he ranks 10th in points for his draft year, even though he was drafted 23rd overall. All while playing at least 45 games less than the 9 guys ahead of him. Everyone knows Boeser needs to be better, and most people would trade him to fill holes in other parts of the roster... but your obsession with the player - and your talking down to anyone that says anything positive about him - is rather pathetic. Its too bad the guys who you constantly pump - guys like Hogs and Podz (who I think are good players btw) - dont luck their way into almost a point per game. Its amazing that only Brock seems to do that. lol -

11 points in 12 games. If he can start popping them in here he will be ok - he could be better but not as bad as a select few posters make him out to be (the worst player on the team and worse than Loui etc etc etc) -
[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
Darius replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
no doubt, i just think that Bo/defence should have been the priority. I can see why management gambled on Brock. You got a guy thats top 10 in points for his draft class, has pretty decent production, if you sign him short term and hope he can get you about 60 points you can flip him. Its better than letting him go for nothing. -

[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
Darius replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
he is faster and more versatile...production probably wont be that much different in the end. its just more money spent instead of signing the captain. IMHO i think they were ready to part with Bo when they signed all these guys ... -

Or not bring in Mikheyev...wasnt he supposed to be a solution for the PK? -

Bure was something else. On a different level of anybody before or after. I remember feeling empty (as a hockey fan) for about 3 years after he got traded. -

I think anybody is fair game when it comes to a trade. But whats your plan for getting a long term stable goalie. Look at the Oilers....world class centres ....cant find a goalie for years... -

I agree that EP is not very good in the face off circle. But weve seen both Horvat and Miller at Centre...the d still looks like a tire fire no matter how many draws they win. I like both players but I cant see a way of fixing this team for the long term without moving at least one of them. If it were up to me I would have dealt Miller last year and signed Bo. Sign a competent 3rd line centre to win draws. -

I wish it could be that easy. But this reminds me of the mid -late 90s, it wasnt till they traded linden that they moved the needle. All the other stuff - like moving Gelinas etc etc was filler for filler moves. I dont know what Hogs would get you in the open market but I suspect it wont be dramatic enough to change anything. -

Ill play devils advocate.....you keep Bo and Miller. How do you fix the defence?. Dont get me wrong, id like to keep those two guys but how do you fix the team? -

i wonder where this team would be today if they listened to him, -

Darius replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
it makes no sense to scratch Boeser if they want to build him up for a trade. i get that he has a target on his back right now but i dont know why everyone defaults to him when player scratches are discussed. There are a few other wingers that could have been scratched instead of Kuzmenko. -

Yup thats the guy they are grooming. But its probably not worth throwing him into this mess. They should ride Bruce till the end of the year IMHO. Get the top 5 pick, sell assets. -

Im not holding my breath, but getting a player like that would be like how the org changed when Bure joined the team. -

Hows that Utica coach, isnt that the kid they had coaching Chicago last year? I think they want to groom him to be the coach. I wouldnt throw him into this tire fire though.
