  1. Well done, I forgot that they did something like this 2 seasons ago with Hodgson - kept him up as 13th forward because his bonuses were like 1.5m. Thanks for the info.
  2. You're clearly trolling. Schroeder had 2 assists tonight while Ebbett couldn't make a play to save his life. Schroeder looked fast and read plays well all night. Even in his own zone, Schroeder wasn't a liability. Some beautiful tape to tape passes from Schroeder, that one in particular with Raymond going to the net is like threading the needle.
  3. No, Ebbett wasn't given a shot. He was more utilized as a PK'er. I'm thinking that 2nd line spot is Schroeder's.
  4. PP units were a focus today at camp. 1st unit had Hansen with the Sedins and Elder/Garrison on the point. 2nd unit had Higgins with Schroeder and Burrows, with Bieksa and Hamhuis on the point. Looks like Schroeder is getting his shot!
  5. PP units were a focus today at camp. Hansen was paired with the Sedins on the first unit, with Edler/Garrison on the point. Higgins - Schroeder - Burrows was the 2nd unit, with Bieksa/Hammer on the point. YAY SCHROEDER!

      how was he Schroeder? need a report can you post in Canucks training camp thread

  6. Only prospect turned player that has really disappointed me was Raymond. I was in that guy's corner forever, even watched some of his college games. I just had no idea he was such a pansy.
  7. Damn Hawks, that was close.

  8. YES RAVENS, SUCK IT MANNING!

      Remember that scene from Se7en? The answer is yes, but only if you have a lot.

  10. Ya, Cannata hasn't had a fair shake with the Wolves yet. I'm a big fan of his potential, especially with what he did in Merrimack (sp?). That being said, we are pretty deep and comfortable in goal, barring Lack's hip healing up. I really think we should go after Bartosak in this next draft, he was great in the WJC, and named CHL goaltender of the week twice already this season. He would easily trump Honzik in our goaltending depth. What would you give up for Graovac, considering the WIld have strong prospects at forward and D?
  11. I'm down for Graovac, despite the last name he's a good Canadian kid. I don't know how big Minny is him, as he is a 7th rounder. If we were to maybe send Cannata their way we could acquire him. Minny could use a goaltending prospect.

      I told you ketchup doesn't belong on subs.

      I live in the American Gardens Building on West 81st Street on the 11th floor. My name is Patrick Bateman. I'm 27 years old.

  14. I'm calling it now, Belleville for the 2014 memorial cup. I mean add a year to Jordan and Malcom Subban, as well as Brendan Gaunce and Zharkov - that's a pretty powerful team. Add in whatever rookies make the team combined with potential deadline acquisitions and I see them winning the OHL.

      Ok I understand you can get anything on your sub. But Ketchup ? Cmon maaaaan

      Gotta side with Lawrence on this one. Ketchup on a sub is pretty ludicrous.

      I could understand if it was ranch or something, but c'mon, man... Get it together.

      Dude ketchup on a beef sub = orgasm. I'd like some relish too.

      I miss the days when talk shows had substance and started at 9am precisely!

  17. Happy new years ... fiscal cliff.

  18. I got pulled over by a really cute fem cop tonight, starting to like these roadblocks.

      Was she blonde and from the Deas Island detachment?

      naw, little brunette in west van. I probably wouldn't run if I was being chased by her.

  19. I'm with Torts, I liked Skyfall. Some of the scenes and stunts were just mind boggling, my heart was racing when the subway came through the wall. I'd go: 1. Skyfall 2. Casino Royale (great movie, loved Eva Green's character) 3. Quantum of Solace (not a single memorable moment)
  20. Django. 9/10 Good movie, would have liked a more satisfying form of retribution.
  21. If you could trade lives with someone would you choose David Beckham, William Shatner or Elon Musk?

      It was more a personality question, would you rather be a well known pro athlete, a successful actor and cult favourite, or an inventor trying to solve environmental problems.

      Musk has way more dough than Becks.

  22. WOAH WOAH WOAH the calendar on the Canucks homepage has games starting on Jan 15th, and nothing before that. Conspiracy?!

      It does make sense with games up to the 14th cancelled.
