      the '01-04 V6 Mustangs (what I'm getting) is not that boatish, just... different. RWD vs FWD, +20 HP and +50 TQ at the crank on the Mustang vs the GTi, with the Mustang weighing in at around 200 pounds more curb weight, which pretty much makes it a wash in direct comparison as far as performance goes.

      200 pounds- that's it? Surprising.  RWD is always fun as well.  

    4. VanGnome

      VanGnome

      3066 vs 2811 so more precisely 255 pounds, but definitely still close enough especially with the added TQ and HP from the Mustang, makes it a lot closer comparing stock to stock

      Try hitting your head with a board, board, board, BOARD, and chanting scripture - in Latin.

       

       

  3. Botchford: Canuck's didnt handle Tryamkin well.  Are you serious?  By all accounts they babysat that guy the best they could.  He clearly wanted to be home playing in a league he's much more familiar with.

    On another note, imagine  Tryamkin wanted to be a hard nosed NHL player with a back end of Tryamkin//Guddy/Edler/Stetcher/MDZ//Biega.  Could have been a feisty back end

      Perhaps babysitting Tryamkin was the problem. Some players just don't respond to ultra structured, hard ass approaches.

      Tryamkin was arguably the defenceman on the team at that time that offered the most potential to be an impact player from the blueline in a two way perspective, but instead of just letting the guy play and giving him the minutes, they micromanaged him back to Russia.

      to bad they dont micromanage the sedins back to sweden

      @ReggieBush He’ll retire or be traded with Goldobin imo. He shouldn’t risk getting another concussion and Goldy is just too inconsistent to be given a spot.

      those 2 and baer shore up the l wing nicely

       

      let's focus on improving the d in the offseason

      a bit more quality in the d will improve the offense group

      in fact, that will improve the offense more then adding any individual offensive player

  5. Canucks re uniting with their dogs social media please post here:

     

    Much appreciated.

  6. Canucks struck gold with Aman. Maybe not 24K gold but dang he is one of my players to watch.  Just wait till he gets more comfortable and confident in the league.

      @Zhukini I dont know about opposite.  Id say there are a lot of cooler heads on this forum, and of course the ra-ra types as well.  Pretty fair balance btw the two

  8. Car Detailers: what’s your goto sealant durability wise other than a ceramic coating? My car parks under an oak tree and the sap/pollen/watermark residue gets pretty nasty.  AND I have a black car so 2x the fun.  I could do a ceramic coating but paint correction would take forever.  Maybe I should just do that.  Or, if you can recommend a spray sealant that works Im all ears.  Dont mind re-applying once a week.  FYI Meguiars M21 synth sealant doesnt last long/hold up.

  10. Computer/PC people: Im looking at getting this 2TB SSD for $449 from Memory Express for my PS5.  Decent deal? I’d only hold off if it gets a real significant discount often, as I do need to upgrade sooner than later (Elden Ring booya).  Also, not really tech savvy which is why I opted for the pre installed heatsink.  Am I getting fleeced?

      You need to have a gen 4 m.2 for the PS5.. Its very fussy, and you also require a heat sink as part of it.  

    3. Warhippy

      Warhippy

      I just believe you might be wildly overpriced on a 2 TB ssd there myself.  But all of my SSD's are for photo and video editing.  It might be entirely different for as PS5

    4. Angry Goose

      Angry Goose

      @-AJ- @Warhippyas @Type Rsaid ps5’s have specific requirements for internal storage.  Appreciate the help everyone and good to know it’s in that ballpark range.  

  11. Dang, Im thinking Poolman is done.  

    1. Sean Monahan

      Sean Monahan

      I thought he was seen limping last night? If it's unrelated to his prior head injuries he should be back at some point.

    2. Angry Goose

      Angry Goose

      @Sean Monahan there was a few tweets/reports of him being in concussion protocol.  I dont know how accurate they are tho

    3. fanfor42

      fanfor42

      OEL's reaction seems to suggest it is head related again - if so Poolman may be unable to play anytime soon.  Nux get LTIR relief but that doesn't cover bonuses so there can be a downside going forward.

       

      The causes of recurring migraines that he has are not well known and not necessarily curable.  It can be debilitating for years and years for anyone, not just hockey players.

       

  12. dang.  probably no EP v EDM tomorrow

      No sense rushing him in.  Oilers are horrible so we should still be able to beat them even without Pettersson.

    3. luckylager

      luckylager

      With or without Petey, I hope they play the same way they did against Florida.

       

      I'd love to see Guddy lay a beat down on Lucic.

      Bugs me the most to see all those new McDavid jerseys. I think the majority of all the people there just started liking them this year.

      Portable air conditioner = Best $400 I ever spent.

       

      Although I think they cost more now.  We bought ours 4 years ago and never regretted it.  Even if we only use it a couple of weeks each year, it is worth it.

      When I was in my early 20's, single and had no food in my freezer - I used to cram my sheet and pillows in it on hot days.

      Lived in a old south facing, top floor apartment overlooking a parking lot.

      &^@# that place used to get so hot.

  17. Finally got around to starting Ted Lasso.  Am I ever getting Boudreau vibes from it.

    1. DrJockitch

      DrJockitch

      Amazing how well they keep it balanced. Would be so easy to step into cheesy sentimentality with a character like Lasso but they balance it brilliantly. 

  18. For all the hate Gagner gets I like that he didnt hesitate for a second to back Virtanen up last night

      Burmistrov should be waived for that performance.  Embarassing.

  19. For all the hate MDZ gets and trade Tanev talk, those 2 (and Stetcher) went to the hospital and stayed there when Boeser got badly injured.

      His offseason training looks pretty intense. I'm thinking that he'll have a solid season coming up.

       

      The burgeoning team atmosphere that's slowly building here is really great, and is something that can't really be manufactured. Having that overall positive team chemistry mixed in with the acquisition of more physical players will make the Canucks a team that other teams won't really be looking forward to playing.

       

      I think the Canucks might be doing the injuring more than being injured this coming season.

      i look at the left side as being, edler, del zotto, hutton and pouliot. if hughes, juolevi, brisebois and sautner show they can make this team, whose place do they take? it isn't about hate but about logical rotation. we all know that our defense last year, wasn't good enough. 

  20. Friedman stated re: Canucks trades that the Canucks “maybe” trade Demko.

     

    I find that a bit baffling.  Theyve got him for 3 more years after this one.  Silovs is still a project.  Goaltending is obviously one of the toughest positions to fill. PA/JR want to turn things around within the next 2 years-what’s the rationale?  

     

    Could we be seeing a Horvat for Spencer Knight trade (or something like that)? Then trade Demko for other areas of need?

  21. Give a listen to Higgins and B. Morrison on sportnet 650 (rintoul and walker, last Fridays show).  Some great conversation about other players and their time in the NHL.

  22. Gluten Free Stank

  23. Good Tocchett interview on Missin Curfew

  24. Good Trent Cull interview.  Should put to rest any concerns that he doesnt have the best interests/development of players in mind.  I think with the support of new mgmt. group Cull should be able to really hone in on being patient w/ Canucks prospects

    1. King Heffy

      King Heffy

      I don't hate the guy but I do think it's time for a new voice.

      I like Trent you know for a fact he has his players best interest in mind.

  25. Gotta love Travis Green just laying into the refs after that no icing call lmao.
