  1. it really annoys me when people say that a team like Tampa Bay doesn't deserve to win the cup because they have one of the smaller fan bases. They built a powerhouse over time after going through some tough years and they don't deserve to win because they don't have as many fans as, for example, Winnipeg? It pisses me off, GMs are there to build teams and Stanley Cups aren't awarded to the team with the best fans, sorry to say

  2. Is there any deal we can make for Karlsson that doesn't drain our top 6 potential prospect pool entirely?

      There is literally nothing that we could reasonably offer.

  3. Would you trade Jake Virtanen for Max Domi straight up?

      This question was a good way to spot out who are/are not homers.

  4. ooh ooh, I'm a rebel just for kicks, now

    Let me kick it like it's 1986, now

    It might be over now, but I feel it still...

      Annoyingly catchy song

  5. If Crosby retires tonight, how close is he to top 5 all time?

  6. Wow the Pemberton lineup is trash.  Not good for any genre of music.

      EoDM and Muse are good rock acts, but after that it's really weak. @debluvscanucks

      Considering the price of tickets it's an incredibly underwhelming lineup from top to bottom.

  8. So, Green, Gallant, Crawford or Ruff?

  9. Desjardins is a moron, good lord.

  10. Remember when no one would draft Josh Ho Sang cause he was cocky with a bad attitude and a selfish player? 

    1. Jägermeister

      So yeah, Ho-Sang has been a magnet for headlines. And while the frequency of incidents is greater than most other hockey players, I could never shake the feeling that Ho-Sang was getting a raw deal from a culture that only praises the quiet-but-burning-inside personality. I’ve spoken with Ho-Sang on several occasions over the years and he’s a really outgoing kid. Sure, maybe he talks too much for some, but it doesn’t seem to be coming from anywhere disingenuous; he’s just really honest – sometimes to his own detriment. Plenty of other players have missed curfews or come in to work late – Cam Talbot did it recently; so did Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan last season – and it hasn’t affected their standing. They were already NHLers, so perhaps they get more leeway, but it’s not much of a difference, really.

      A lot of NHL folk are scared of personalities.  Ho-Sang was definitely immature as a kid, but I haven't heard anything bad on that front in nearly 2 years.

  11. Exasperated from all the Jake Virtanen arguing around here. He's an incredibly disappointing prospect not playing nearly as good as what we drafted him to be, with potential to turn it around and still be an NHL player that can contribute on the third line. If he turns out to be anything more, that'd be great. Now if we could all just accept that, that would be great. 

  12. Seeing all these great young players around the league dominate makes me wish we had some high end young talent as well. Seems like even when we suck to the bottom of the league we miss out. Not trying to bash on our team's players, just really jealous. Hope we'll get some young sure fire franchise players soon enough. (Or just one would be great too.) 

  13. Worst Canucks 7th round pick of recent memory: Matthew Beattie, Sawyer Hannay, or Mackenze Stewart?

    1. Jägermeister

      Jägermeister

      Stewart doesn't belong in the same category as the other 2.  He at least got an ELC and looks like he could make a pro career somewhere in the world, be it the AHL or Europe.

      Beattie and Hannay were both scrubs before they ever even got out of the NCAA and the Q.

      +10 cool points.

      But also -9 cool points for not already having them there.

      IMO, the best rock band so far since the 2000s.

      That song annoys me.  A lot.  And I like the Chainsmokers.

  16. Sedin-Sedin-Eriksson-Hutton-Gudbranson is gonna be one exciting powerplay to watch.

      The defencemen on that PP unit combined for 3 goals last year.

      @TheOgRook You never watch a superhero movie, read a comic, or listen to music you liked as a teen for nostalgias sake?  It's not any different.  

       

      I guess some peoples idea of growing up means you can't goof off every now and then, but mine (and many others) doesn't.  If something is fun, I'm probably going to do it.  

      In the end of the day spending 20 minutes playing a game on my phone during times I would have just been looking at the internet anyways doesn't really make a difference to anything.  So who cares?

  20. Apparently Pokemon Go is now more popular than porn.

  21. Probably could have signed Hammer for 3.5 Mil for 2 or 3 years. Why didn't we do this again?
