  1. The McCaw corpo brand orca has been an eye sore for me personally. Stick in the rink should be the regular uniform it's our original concept and it is our destiny too. The Black Skate will always remind me of the greatest Canuck team ever under Pat Quinn in 1994 would work well as an alternate. Th Orca would be the third jersey for the obvious reason being the Canucks most successful team in our history.
  2. Good luck to our future bitter rivals the Seatlle Stealth. If they are granted the same drafting privileges as Vegas, the franchise will be the talk of the town! Quebec will be granted a franchise in the future too by relocation is my guess.
  3. Luongo seriously injured...

      Nooooooo! I love Bobby Lu so much and want him to continue breaking records. What a guy. Hope he gets better and returns with fire.

      Oh, this video is cringe-worthy. Poor Luo. Hope he is OK. 

  4. Though I am flexible with Kansas being in Portland,Ore, Milwaukee or Salt Lake City...
  5. Ya can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig!
  6. In Florida a price of a single ticket in the upper bowl for the Nov.18 2017 match up against the LA Kings is a WHOPPING $23.00! When I watch highlights from there the lower bowl has a large percentage of empty red seats, the upper bowl I simply call the Red Sea for obvious reasons. The NHL salary cap is 75 million dollars, Florida's cap hit is some $68 million and change. The Panther's average attendance for this current year ( ranking 29'th ) is 12,430 which doesn't match the optics from telecasts! Stadium revenues are not available but ya needn't be an economist to figure out at 29'th in the standings - ya gotta be hurting some? Bettman loves success stories like Florida but will not tolerate a Canadian market that doesn't meet his demands, of course there is an agenda that serves the interests of a former senior vice president and general counsel to the National Basketball Association - it's profits for American investors with spin offs into American communities. Bettman continues to learn about the game and its history only to shape it to their liking for the future.
  7. It's gonna be tough to break into a winning lineup without some real game time under his belt this preseason, what's your call?
  8. Aside from multiple injuries, Gaunce won't be up for a while. The bottom six are a fix.

    Interviews aside, put Granlund back with the Sedins and there's the problem - where d'ya put Vanek?

    What would be the teams expectations from Erikkson, Vanek and Gagner in goal production I wonder? At this rate 45 goals between them would be a tall order!
  11. The Gretzky thing is a Tony Gallagher ( looking to throw stones as usual ) and a few Vancouver media fantasy, I was in and out of NY back then and the local papers/broadcasts were tracking Wayne's living accomodations and schools for his kids. Vancouver was probably used as bargaining tool...
  12. Ya left out the many dead beats, Keith Ballard/Oreskovich ( Grabner going the other way and a 2010 first round pick ) yikes, David Booth ( enough said here ), Derek Roy to name a few. Bare cupboards hurt the club deeply by the time the mop up job started with Linden and Benning had to deal with. He had a very good team that he couldn't champion. Pat Quinn was head and shoulders above Gillis in so many areas.
  13. Gillis blew a great oppurtunity with what was handed to him by the Burke era. Gillis was unable to find the right pieces to a great - great team who should of made two cup appearances with the red hot Sedins. Over the last 10 years Vancouver and Philadelphia were one and out in the finals and soon out of the complete picture, Pittsburgh, LA, Chicago and Boston made multiple trips because of their GM's making the right moves as opposed to failed moves which hurt the Canucks long term as well.
  14. Torres disappeared after game three of the 2011 SCF and went on to shame the game with suspensions.
  15. In the age of information, ignorance is a choice.
