  1. I could only imagine what he would say about number 21 skating around
  2. lol I said it about messier as well , my reasoning for no to retiring loungo number , if florida retires bure we retire loungos simple roh till then
  3. only if they bring back Howie meeker shoot the puck , shoot the puck , sure one game jim and tommy , you know they will , they will do it on one leg if they have too
  4. ummm bure lowered the bar ? are linden and smyl or naslund in the hall of fame ? see this opens up pandoras box maybe if florida retires bure number then we will retire loungos number that sounds fair lol
  5. ummm just like to point out again if I know about bure .you think I would kind of know about messier right , , I said if weren't for bure naslund wouldn't had rogers to play at , before bure the team was in trouble . the lions and whitecaps were the number 1 and 2 teams , if we never got bure , who knows were the team was heading , when you mention naslund , oh west coast express when you mention bure , it just bure and mic drop
  6. just saying kesler made an impact as well for the canucks
  7. we aren't talking about the hof , it about canucks jersey retirement well he still not getting his number retired so argument is done ps linden and smyl aren't in the hall of fame yet their number is hanging up
  8. wrong kelser had some good numbers for a few season always in the hunt for a selke ,, so if we are going by your criteria he should be considered for a jersey retirement, loungo was good for a few season , won a trophy and that's it just like kesler good for a few season won a trophy . don't get me wrong I like lou I have his jersey roh but no to the rafters
  9. yep makes no sense just like loungo number being retired makes no sense , if you are going by numbers or trophy,s won to have jerseys retired then , kelser and messiers numbers would be up there too , yes messier sucks and it would never happen but kesler left like loui so one could debate whether kesler number should be up there if loungos number is hanging up , just saying if lou.s number is retired your opening pandoras box of requirements to having jerseys retired
  10. ummm naslund brought the fans back , I think you are referring to bure , if it weren't for bure they would not be a gm place( rogers) for naslund to play in
  11. If that's the case kelser should be up there too might as well throw messier up there so no to loungo
  12. On whether Eriksson has a place on the roster: “Loui, I respect his career. I know he wants to probably play better than he has and have more success for himself. But I still have a job to do. And my job is to put the best team on the ice and play guys I see fit — and not just based on salaries. I want players who will do anything in their power to help the Vancouver Canucks win. That’s all they care about: being a Canuck and helping us win. With the additions of some forwards, we’ve got some tough decisions to make. And he’s no different than any other player coming into camp.”
  13. Scandinavian german English Scottish and related to some serious bad asses in the earliest days of bc , actually saw some their graves in barkerville and in dawson creek
  14. why not petey ? blocked more shots than loui , hit more than loui , petey has excellent defensive awareness if we are down a goal killing a penalty late in the game why wouldn't you let petey do some pk ? Horvat takes faces off on the pk didn't you know that? doesn't beregon in boston kill penalties? lol my perception of lazy is different than greens? did I bench loui for a game? no , green did right ? explain the 3 hits in 82 games then and don't give me that's not his game bs either , the game is hockey it is a contact sport 1 hit per 27.3 games is that engaged in the game no that is lazy oh it magical appeared now , lol , how do you figure that when he said it , it came from a source not hear say , why would management ignore his concerns ? how do you know that maybe they are behind closed doors , perhaps they don't want to air the dirty laundry out in public , unlike loui did ever think about that? well it doesn't take a genius either to figure out if you don't know your role in 3 years something is wrong , 2 different coaches since loui has been here yet he made a point it only has been the last two years it has been a problem right? hmmmm I wonder who the coach was in last 2 years , sounds like a shot at green does it not? in closing I don't hate loui I wish he did score 20 goals 30 assists , but lets face it he looks disinterested ,or pissed off and sulking or is it lazy or has the game passed him by whatever loui deal is ,it been 3 years and loui stats keep dropping every year , , when a coach and a player don't see eye to eye it can be a toxic environment and when the media gets hold of it well double that , and I hate to say it wait till loui arrives at camp then it just going to get worse with the media , so it is better for all parties to let loui go somewhere else
  15. it took the sedins 5 years to hit 70 points it took petey one year to almost hit the 70 point mark
  16. oh ya i get ya nothing wrong with covers garage inc by metallica the spaghetti incident G'n'r some interesting covers on those( cds , album ,media files ) dread zeppelin with tort elvis i saw them at the commodore way back great show
  17. careful now the loui lovers have their post count and thread count going on , apparently over 500 anti loui posts so far , oh wait make that 502 now
  18. not all doctors deserve that have you dealt with a worksafe bc doctor lol
  19. I think jim and tg have a 2 year window to not only make the playoff but to make a good run in the playoffs , when jb made the miller trade with that 1st rounder involved that spoke volumes for a time table
