I'm only one dude..

I have heard some top athletes say the same. Gretz, GSP off the top of my head.

 

If a player from the past was reborn today, sure I hear your point but that is not possible. 

 

Its an impossible discussion to really have but in all aspects of human achievements, we are progressing. 

Again, hockey has changed it's rules so much that its hard to judge this specific sport.  

Maybe achievements in the skills comps it can be tracked and compared...will/are players getting faster, better stick work, harder shot...

Sorry man, came in the cross hairs at the wrong time.  Totally agree, so much is different it’s hard to compare.  Imagine Bure without the redline...

Good game. Really liked Mac, Highmore, Hamonic, and Rathbone.

 

Rathbone is pretty calm defensively too and makes good decisions to get the puck out.

Bonesy?

 

What were your words recently regarding 'creative' nicknames?

Bonesy?

 

[Smashian Kassian]

Man I really like Hamonic alot.

 

Thought it was a shrewd move bringing him in on that deal, and he's improved all year. You can tell he's a character guy, the kind of person you want in your organization.

 

Whether he's playing with Huggy every night, or even bumped down to play with Rathbone or Juolevi, he's a great fit for us in a #4/5 role IMO.

Bonesy, Huggy, Petey, Millsy....I’m starting to detect a pattern here.  I wish players would work a little harder on their nicknames. Such exciting players, such unimaginative names.

You don't like Eagle, Ox, and Big Tuna ?

People are strange. Like who gives what Taj thinks lol. What a joker 

 

He would have posted something of the opposite but with the same effect if the Canucks lost 

I know. Only miserable asses would tune in to Taj’s cavalcade of misery and despair.

I know. Why not Boner, Quinnsicle, Alien, and Milly Goat Gruff. 

And if the Canucks select a kid named Raty in the draft then you have a Raty Boner

aren't you the guy that called Hoglander a 3rd liner at best?

right after referring to Lind as a guy that won't cut it in the NHL?

or was that some other Arrow?

That was me Lind wont amount to much 

 

Hoglander will be a great top 9 player. A Higgens or Hansen type a #7  who can fill in on a second line with an injury but will be best if playing against weaker competition where he can score 20-22 goals a season. Keep him against tougher competition and he will have a hard time getting to 15-17 goals. It's not a bad thing to be called a third liner

the guy is exhausted - plain and simple.

 

getting utilized - necessarily - like a rented mule  - because the team has no bottom six centers - and expected to produce like a boss at the same time.

 

I love the amount of effort he's giving - I don't care whatsoever about his mistakes.

ya ok point taken, he is very much a human being, but he is expected to be a leader on this team so as such....a little less up and down emotionally would be good

They're going to have to get creative when Jet Woo arrives (pretty tough names to incorporate)

If you are Jack, you take that and RUN given what the other nickname candidates could have been.

Those I like. Similar to Blunt’s list that has some pizzazz.

Can’t even celebrate 1 win after losing 6 in a row without these guys complaining. I feel bad for those people.

Oh my god I'm dying listening to the post-game show, someone just texted in 

 

Nurse is a crotch grabber.  That's not the nurse you want grabbing your...  and then they stopped reading the text
