      I guess the signs saying "Bus Stop" weren't noticed. :lol:

  4. Vegas has Fleury, M. Subban, Dansk at G, all injured. Legace didn't finish the game last night. Do we face 19 y/o Ferguson tomorrow?

      wow, maybe. Make AZ's not-so-stealth tank look that much more blatant.

      It's like the hockey gods took offense to Vegas' hot start or something.

      thats kinda arrogant.. true, but still.  

    3. Odd.

      Odd.

      I remember when he was our best freaking defensive prospect. That's how shallow our depth was back then.

      To set their 23 player roster.  They lose one day of NHL salary.  Expect Vegas to put players on waivers or make a trade to recall them.

      Came across this video today and the last comments this guy made was hilarious.

      Definitely could've pulled up on that  especially since he had plenty of time once the puck deflected. But also the player attacking was fishing for the puck and made no attempt to brace for impact. 

  9. Dipietro OHL player of the week, Lind WHL player of the week. Awesome, 2017 class coming along!

      This is my favourite draft class by far so far.  Real good mix of player types and the first 3 guys all look like steals.

    3. luckylager

      luckylager

      Yeah

       

      I'm really trying to not get my fragile hopes up, but I. just. can't. help. it.

       

      From what I watched of young stars, (without Gaudette and Dahlin), Boeser and Virtanen's play... It's all starting to come together. 

       

      In 5 years... Man, I shouldn't get my hopes up

      What, no Canuck prospect was named QMJHL player of the week?

       

      Unacceptable, fire Benning!!1!11!111!

      oh thats funny I thought "tip" was where to go :picard: always 20% , those folks work hard.

      I'm excited about Utica this year, its been a while. 

  12. Anytime I wake up to see smog, or hear a low-flying plane I just assume N. Korea has attacked. Anyone else considering emergency preparations?

      its North Korea, not China. At worst we would get hit by 1 nuke, and that would be by accident. Give them 5 or 10 years though and they could be a problem

      Ahh VC why you reminding us, I am more worried of a Tsunami than Earthquake.

      Honestly, if the world entered a state of nuclear war, I'd rather die than have to survive the aftermath.

      I didn't know he was married…I never see him with a ring. Great name for the little one. Congrats to all. Can't wait to see him at the 2035 draft.

    2. Ghostsof1915

      Ghostsof1915

      He's been married for a long time, but it is kinda odd, when he had his number retired, she looked bored/irritated. I've always wondered how good the relationship was. Maybe its one of those relationships they just don't get all lovey-dovey in public.

      Roman Matthias Linden.  Roman after his mother's father, Romano.  Congratulations to the Linden family.

  13. Anyone manage to find a pair of eclipse glasses? Seems a little late to order online, so I'm wondering any physical stock in local stores?

      If you live in Vancouver, I heard that Science World was giving pairs away for free. Not sure if it's true or not but that's what I heard.

    2. JM_

      the space centre in Vancouver has them, got 3 pairs yesterday. Its by donation.

      Thanks guys. I'll have to hit up the space centre tomorrow. 

  14. Doan and Iginla could be options for Team Canada, if they go unsigned. 

    1. goalie13

      goalie13

      I guess technically, so would Bo Horvat.  Before the NHL started going to the Olympics, the Team Canada roster would have a handful of guys who were unsigned free agents.  Guys like Kariya, Hirsch & Nedved played for Canada at Lillehammer. Lindros, Juneau and Burke at Albertville.  Now I am not saying that I would rather see Horvat at the Olympics instead of in a Canucks jersey, but I wonder how many free agents might be available to improve Canada's roster.

  15. Best place to rid oneself of expired propane?

      @goalie13 he'll probably win gold with them too. :o

      I doubt he'll be back.

      Meh. He'll be back 

  19. It's that point in the off-season where I'm tapping my veins, shouting 'I need it!'

  20. Signing a lot of guys that need to prove themselves. If even half of them work out, that's good for the present and the future. 

  21. Wiercioch too!!!!

  22. Alright, so let's say the Canucks do a presser tomorrow, with recently signed guys. It would include: Nilsson, MDZ, and ______. Who else?

      JM_

      I hope its just Nilsson and maybe a friend for Dorsett. 

    3. apollo

      apollo

      I was gonna say pass on Nilsson, but I guess he's swedish. So ok I take it at a reasonable cap. 

       

      Wishful thinking would be Shattenkirk followed by Alzner... but good luck with that. Wouldn't mind Vanek... I begged for it last off season. Bonino or Radulov would be swell... hey lets just sign them all. I also like Mike Fisher... hmmmm... I'm being greedy aren't I? OK Brian Boyle final answer. 

    4. RetroCanuck

      RetroCanuck

      Yakupov and Gelinas. To younger guys that may just need a new look.

      Wow @Cramarossa you must be feeling bad about this! He certainly showed promise but guess he didn't produce enough. I liked his physical game though! Maybe change your name to MarkyThrust?:P

      I am so distraught. His glorious flow belongs in BC!

      Is that real? If Joe looks like that at his age, it's no wonder he's lasted so long.

    3. Cramarossa

      Cramarossa

      Yes AJ, Burnzie and Jumbo are being featured in the new "The Body Issue" of ESPN magazine.
