Myers, Ericksson, Beagle, Holtby, Schmidt, Virtanen, and lest be honest Juolevi is close. Even Ferland was a damaged player that 90% of fans were aware of his injury situation. It just goes on and on. I understand that many players don't want to play on the West Coast and don't want to pay Cdn taxes, so it's not easy. But it seem to me Other Cdn teams do a better job of it. For every misjudgment we've made with benning we've had a home run. Myers may not be worth 6m but hes not far off. Compare his caphit to goligoski... who just got 5m... Eriksson was coming off a great season. Unless you piped up on the day he signed (with proof) stfu. No one knew hed drop off like that. Beagle had a neck injury. But was worth what he brought. We needed a relable backup in case bubble demko was just a bubble. Paying 6m in total for 2 goalies is never bad. When we traded for schmidt there was nothing but rave reviews. He didnt pan out here and didnt want to stay. We got back our draft capital... what's the problem? Virtanen was also coming off a season pro rated at 20g 20a. We signed him to a good contract... did you know he would do what he did? If so you should have spoken up... for that girl... if not... how could benning have known he would have allegedly done that. OJ was drafted as a positional need. I wanted tkachuk but hes canuck property so I support him. I think he can still develop into a top 4 d. STOP BUYING WHAT THIS ASS WATER MEDIA IS THROWING DOWN YOUR THROAT AND THINK FOR YOURSELF. Benning goes and gets our number 1 C at 5th overall OFF THE BOARD no one wants to talk about that. He goes and gets our leading scorer from the lighting for the 23rd overall pick. All you guys can talk about is trading him. Goes and grabs a #1 D at 9 overall and we poke holes in his game. Names horvat captain and we criticize him. Gets rid of 12m in dead cap while upgrading the current team and we worry about the future. Drafts a great goalie in the second round and its unspoken of. Go be a devils fan. I hear they're having fun over there. So sick of this pessimistic bull$&!#. Edited August 1, 2021 by 73 Percent 3 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped reading when they listed viranan as a center. You sure it was The Hockey Writers? I read everything they produce and that would have caught my attention. Additionally, Zator, Kierszenblat and McLellan are pretty reliable when covering the Canucks.

My overall pessimistic point still stands. You can sit around moping about tnn e negatives or you can look at the positives.

I think when things go poorly (bad losses or missing the playoffs), CDC does trend towards the HF Boards and it gets pretty brutal to be a part of it. The difference is that when the Canucks start doing well again, CDC brightens up considerably (overall) and the HF Boards still finds a way to be negative about it.

The thing is we havent done anything poorly lol. The season hasn't started yet. Entire opinions made up about a team no ones ever seen play. Good observation though AJ Edited August 1, 2021 by 73 Percent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that the last experience of the Canucks playing hockey ended poorly, some fans are stuck in a negative mindset until we see actual results that change their mindset. If we start the season 4-0, the entire feeling will change. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixon Ward Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I think that our top 3 of OEL, Hughes, and Myers, might be the best top 3 we have ever had, talent-wise. Hamonic and Poolman at their best will be very solid, defensive 4th and 5th options. I am excited to see the progress of OJ, I am a bigger fan than most on here. I think he will be really good all-around defenseman if given the opportunity. Schenn is a warrior who can fill in anywhere. Rathbone could probably use some time to dominate Abbotsford. Overall I think this group has great potential to be much better than they most think. Go Canucks Go! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Canuck #12 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Bubble Myers was back tonight! If he can keep playing with this type of aggression, he's going to turn a lot more haters into fans. Would still prefer to see him on the 3rd pairing if/when Hamonic gets back, but will definitely want to see him stay in the line up if he keeps playing with this intensity.
