  1. Ridiculous stat of the day: 26 of Pettersson’s 30 points are primary. 

     

    1. JM_

      JM_

      do you know any site that track primary points? I'm curious how this stat looks vs the rest of the league. 

  2. Sedin - Sedin - Eriksson

    OEL - Karlsson

     

    That's not even fair...

  3. So how’d thay boycott go that everyone was talking about?

      I loved the peak of the Twins era in Vancouver, as much as the West Coast Express and the days of Bure with Linden, McLean, didn't quite get here in time for King Richard's reign but these were all great times. In the past, years ago.

       

      I really like the make up of this team now, excited to see Hughes further develop as he is the type of defenseman this organization has not yet seen here.

       

      I think there will be bumps in the road still, some rough patches and the smiles of today will shift to anger and pitchforks and back and forth still...but the team is on the rise and may be able to challenge for contendership in the nearer future. Fun times.

       

  5. So if Hughes is actually ready to play next year I could see something like this

     

    ___ - Horvat - Boeser

    Goldobin - ___ - Pettersson

    Leipsic - Sutter - Virtanen

    Gaunce - Granlund - Eriksson

     

    Edler - Stecher

    Hughes - Tanev

    Pouliot - Gudbranson

     

    Markstrom

    Nilsson/Demko

      I think if Hughes shows he’s ready that’ll give Juolevi some time to develop in the AHL. As for Baertschi, I’m just under the impression that he’ll be traded. 

    3. Jaku

      Jaku

      Thanks for clearing that up. I also think that Baer may be gone soon.

      Looks like we have Asian emoji - ___ - playing between Goldy and Golden Boy? :lol:

  6. So is this trade actually gonna happen?

      I'm not even positive Erik Karlsson exists at this point.

      nah .

      ottawa is unable to do something

      that is positive

      for any player, fan, their own team . .

      bleh bleh bleh

      if it does in fact happen it is most likely to be a big mess

       

      all the key players there realize this now

      and will be jumping ship as soon as they can

      bye bye to stone and duchene at season's end

       

      and then melynk will try to appease everyone

      but will in fact abuse everyone

      with another self proclaimed promo video

      what a blindered goof

  7. So uhhh, anyone watch TFIL???

     

  8. That moment when you realize a McDavid-less Edmonton is two points behind us....

    1. LordCanuck

      LordCanuck

      That moment when you realize Edmonton has had 5 1st or 2nd overall picks and you wonder why there still behind us.

  9. The homerism leafsnet has been showing lately is bordering on unprofessional.

      At what point does it become tampering when a company that owns over a third of the Leafs  (Rogers/Sportsnet and Bell/TSN each own 37.5% of the Leafs) uses its media to make sales pitches to players that are under contract.

    4. Nucker 67

      The Leafs are using the TOR media to make sales pitches for them. Our media just puts down the Canucks.

  10. This does not look good...Kane accused of sexual assault again

      Now, factoring evidence and common sense like Lil B and Cerridwen have deduced we can capably put this on the back burner as a possible load of BS.

       

      Fair enough.

       

      That being said, nobody has the right to sit and defame people making such allegations until such time as they're proven otherwise.  Far to many suffer without ever speaking up about being assaulted or abused.  It's disgusting.  The only thing more disgusting is the attitudes as we saw here

      There is a 2 hour time difference between Chicago and LA. I'm having a bit of a problem discerning if those times quoted in the tweet are Chicago time or LA time. No matter the time zone, it still doesn't adequately explain how Patrick Kane would be in a bar bathroom at closing time when he would have been on a plane.

      More info regarding the flight. The departure was in PST time and the game officially ended on 9:32 PM PST. Unless if Kane left his teammates behind (Not possible without any sort of punishment from the team.), there would've been no time for him to go to a bar what so ever.

      And people say he's not worthy of a 1st overall pick. I still think this kid will be a bonafide 1st line center very soon.

  11. This is gonna be a lot of fun to come back to if we have a better year than the Leafs

      Thought Cougars were going to go a lot farther in the playoffs with their roster. That fills the hole with Guhle gone of a top 2 D

    2. Pears

      Pears

      Guhle could still come back seeing all the moves Buffalo made. But yea if Edmonds made a save here and there we would've made it to at least the third round. 

  13. This wouldn’t even be possible...?

      The author Kevin Allen has been honoured by the Hockey Hall of Fame for his excellence in hockey journalism.


      He looks at how the teams around them have improved also. NYR added Panarin and Kakko.  NJD Subban and Hughes and Hall is healthy.  Their younger players like Hischier are also improving. That's going to have an effect on NYI who are direct rivals - it's harder for NYI to win against them this season compared to last season.

      They've got a few that are pretty far off, but most of them are decent.

      Edmonton with that "upgraded" goaltending, the Euro pipedreams, and recycled UFA/PTO crew manning the bottom half of the roster... gold.

  16. Watching Tim and Sid today and Cory Hirsche suggested that we might go after Kevin Shattenkirk in the summer...thoughts?

      I can't see Edmonton trading their pick. If they got Matthews, Tkachuk or one of the Finns they are set.


      They could then trade 1-2 forwards not named McDavid or Draisitl for D.

      If we could get away with McCann++ then I'd do it but anything more I'd pass. 

  17. Well, it was a good day up until that...

      nice. Bettman would probably fine him for it. 

  19. What kind of a haul could Ottawa get for Karlsson? Here’s what theScore predicted:

     

    To Vegas: Erik Karlsson

     

    To Ottawa: Cody Glass, Alex Tuch, Nicholas Hague, 2019 1st

     

    Maybe something like that?

    1. HerrDrFunk

      HerrDrFunk

      I'd say Vegas would still need to throw in more. Maybe upgrade Tuch to Smith?

    2. Warhippy

      Warhippy

      Actually I'd say that's pretty close for a single year of EK.

       

      Honestly, if we had a player that was essentially out the door and we had a return of that nature....it would essentially signal the end of our rebuild.

       

      For Ottawa that now risks losing EK and Hoffman 3 stud prospects plus an extra late 1st is the entire world because Karlsson is gone no matter what

    3. Xbox

      Xbox

      That was what Ottawa wanted from Vegas at the deadline so if he's moved it'll be for something similar to that. VGK sees Glass as untouchable though.

  20. What was that about Benning not being able to draft in the mid-late rounds?

      @NewbieCanuckFan McCann was a 1st round pick. The graph is about teams success in the 3rd-7th rounds. 

    3. Jaku

      Jaku

      If I remember correctly - From 2010-2018 the Vancouver canucks have only had 7% of their 2nd round+ picks turn out to be NHL players. It's like 28th or 29th in the NHL. 

    4. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Already in (10 game mark)-    Tryamkin, Forsling and Gaudette

      High potential to make it-   Brisebois, Madden, DiPietro, Rathbone, Lockwood and Jasek

  21. What would you guys think of this as pregame video/entrance songs?
