erkayloomeh Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I was sad when we traded in AV for John twitarella. Not sad anymore though. Just mad at JT for being such an incredible ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Two most devastating trades for me where Bertuzzi who was by far my favourite player at the time and now the luongo trade who ended up being my favourite player of all time. Ironic that last trade I was angry at lead us to a scf and easily the greatest goalie and superstar our team ever had. Highly doubt Matthias or Markstrom can become anything extraordinary but I'm hoping. On a side note the Cory trade was one of the happiest moments as a canuck fan for me!

John Tortorella Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Im sad your a Calgary fan. Not srs. Made me sad Marty brodeur isn't a devil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Building Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Bure trade. Especially because the details were so few at the time. All speculation for years before truthful segments of the story began to trickle out. I was way too young for the Neely trade to resonate. The Devils trade for Kovalchuk was sad at the time because Atlanta got fleeced, but it evened out in the end as Jersey screwed themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALGARY! Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Re: "Trevor Kidd was a really good young goalie" -- an example of one of those little white lies dad's tell their kids to make them feel better. Sad trade for the 'nucks: Gino Odjick for Jason Strudwick. Lol I know a couple years later my dad told me how he actually felt about Kidd lol.and to the guy whose sad I'm a Calgary fan don't be. I'm quite happy and optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex425 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Schneider trade made me sad when I heard the 7th overall pick, 2nd round pick and a prospect(Martin Marincin) was the offer from Edmonton. Lol I know a couple years later my dad told me how he actually felt about Kidd lol.and to the guy whose sad I'm a Calgary fan don't be. I'm quite happy and optimistic. By the way, unrelated but your a flames fan and how do you feel about the canucks future? You probably don't care but do you think our future is bright?

Rex425 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 The Devils trade for Kovalchuk was sad at the time because Atlanta got fleeced, but it evened out in the end as Jersey screwed themselves. I think it was either let him go for nothing or get some return at the time, so don't think Atlanta got fleeced but that's just my opinion.

asian player Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The Luongo trade. We all saw it coming but it hit me pretty hard. He was a great guy and a great goalie. He looked good in a Canucks uniform Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the future will be bright, but I think there will be a couple of dark years in between. But yes, I think developing the prospects within the organization and continuing to draft well and pick up meat and potato players in free Agency and the Canucks are back in a competitive spot. And yes I do care about the Canucks.. I like all Canadian teams and the only time I hate the Canucks is when they play the Flames, same goes for how i feel about the Oilers Jets, Leafs, Sens And Habs. Like em all wish all of them success, except when playing the Flames haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73 Percent Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I bought a Cody hodgson autographed all-star puck... it got to my house and I opened it like a boy on Christmas... an hour before he was traded. Im over it now. Happy with kassquatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bure to Mogilny Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Luongo tho i understand it had to happen is to to bad Schneider was a shock and hurts to this day Hodgson was the worse cause with his offenise we would of had sutch a gloreous chance in 2012 for the cup - all the heavy weights knocked out and a over achieving kings team saild to a easy cup - if we had a lil more offense wed of beat them in all those close games. But didnt happen and am glad to have kassian but will always wonder what could of happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bure to Mogilny Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Hodgson would have been shrugged off and beat down by the big Kings. I doubt it cause hed of bin on the third line PLUS remember that game against the bruins in jan 2012 when he played like a rocket against the bigger badder bruins? In 2012 his offense easeily was better than Kass and could of made a diff. All could ofs and should ofs tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BananaMash Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Dale Weise to Montreal probably made me the saddest. I knew he'd be out as soon as Torts was hired, and it really bummed me out to see him go. I thought he was really the only legitimate fourth liner we had (I mean seriously? Dalpe and Schroeder on the fourth line? C'mon). Schneider being traded made me mad. I really like Horvat, but I still feel like it was a complete undersell panic trade by Gillis.

Mustapha Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Schneider trade was the worst in recent memory. He was all set to be the #1 in Vancouver, and then *POOF*. The OP mentioned St.Louis....Craig Button released him shortly after taking over as Calgary GM. Button didn't last long as GM, as it was clear he couldn't properly evaluate his team's talent. I laugh whenever I see Craig Button on TSN. I doubt he will ever have a real hockey job ever again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Schneider. Just an absolutely inexcusably stupid trade that will haunt this team for the next decade. Linden was sad to see but I was kind of happy at least he got to get away from the disaster that the Messier brought to the locker room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brilac Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The Luongo trade. I knew it was coming. I was at a loss and shocked when I heard. He got what he wanted, and I am happy for him, but I was sad to see him go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
