the grinder

He needs a new contract that's what changed his game

lol like how you add to the trade tree to try and make your agruement valid , you seem to put Vanek up on a pedestal worthy of the next coming of mcdavid , like come on we got a young prospect that still plays and is effective in the league , for aging vet . those types were hoping for a fire sell and get first round picks for burrows hansen vanek vrbata ,just like the ones that want Sutter, Rousell virtanen traded and expect a 1 st rounder back lol so on one hand you say jim should be a better negotiator and then you say he should of got anything he could for vrbata , so wouldn't that contradict the part of negotiating , just giving in??? dont want jim to play a lil hard ball when negotiating with agents and other gms? he should rollover and just take what ever lol

lol what do expect to get back for a rental ? motte and a 3rd? no team is going to do that , Rick Nash got traded for Spooner (done), Matt Belesky( not in the league),ryan lindgren (who)a 1st and 7th rounder so basically Nash got the rangers a late 1st round pick . Vrbata had 27 points in the last season, doesn't play defensive hockey, not really want you want for a playoff run ,and then to give up assets , I'm sure 16 GM,s were on the phone for Radim offering GMJB 2 nd and 3rds for Radim

every GM has a problem in trades , with Guddy he was supposed to be that physical dman that we needed didn't work so he got traded for Pearson. Brandon Sutter was supposed to 2 nd /3rd line center meh ya a bit of a overpayment but we needed a center at that time . , Linden vey meh who cares , Willie D wanted him . Prust for Kassian ? come on Kassian was having his personal problems /rehab /etc going on , lucky to even get Prust at that time. Baer for a 2nd , took a chance was serviceable for a few years when we needed some skill . Hamhius had a no trade clause and didn't waive his clause., Burrows and Hansen, they played one season each after getting traded you werent gonna get much in return . Vrbata had a -30 rating get what a 6 th round pick??? and Vanek ? you realize we traded we traded Vanek for Tyler Motte . i think we won the Vanek trade

yep gillis is still having an effect on the canucks ,loungos recapture penalty yeah the one thats takes 3 million of the cap this year still , that guy that left the team in a mess with no draft picks lol

loui is the next captain

good for you ! So you upgraded to a van down by the river then

traded marky in 2019 ? what gm trades a no# 1 goalie while fighting for a playoff spot, lmao, so we would of been in the same boat with no playoff experience for the core ,with a late round pick and then go out sign a veteran back up. pick or experience ? yep traded for a top 4 dman for 5.95 till 2024 for a 3 rd round pick ,

so you wanted to sign marky for 6mil till he is 36 ? and tanev for 4.5 for 4 years ,10.5 for 4 years ? if Benning did that you would be complaining about signing longterm deals for overpriced free agents lol

yep fackers

where trump is, fired

time to get a strangle hold of things

sure there is but not at that the time of the game

yep great when he punched t puke in the face , then calgary scored on the pp yep that was the huge difference in the game, just the worst timing to take that penalty

well we were in the game till myers punched t-puke , who went down like he was shot lol once petey gets going we will be alright

never mind that he also gonna lift the travel ban like wth

why? because most fans are hoping for another Bertuzzi type player , big ,can hit, chip in a few goals , lol 3rd and 4th line plugs are what you need to win in the playoffs oilers are the prime example , 2 of the best point producers and yet fail to make the playoffs why? no 3rd or 4th line plugs

I'm in fine form already

The BJ's need to add a 2 nd rounder

show casing loui for the center piece of the pierre luc dublois trade

4-3 canucks boeser gwg

the coilers cant stop the hog 6-3 canucks bo with the gwg
