Next year Hoggy starts to get some bounces.  You have to love his attitude.  Hopefully Hoggy and Petey get to workout together this summer.

He will stay there as he is not even AHL worthy.

You should know that SHL is a better league than AHL.

What a dumb statement.

 

Power brings the same elements as Hughes but he can play physical and defend in his own end. That’s a franchise defenseman.

Saying Hughes isn’t a franchise dman is a dumb statement. 
 

You are literally assuming a smart 21 year old kid can’t learn the only teachable part of the game.

Debatable and he is not even in the SHL anyway

[Bad_BOI_pete]

Benning did a good job! but could have done better

He is already in SHL. So I hope the Sharks let him stay there.

oh, did timra get promoted this year or has he changed clubs? if it's the former, is he going to be in the shl a year from now when they're relegated again?

[HockeyHarry]

And Canucks win the Draft by trading down and picking Aatu Raty later in round 1 plus getting other 2nd rounder.

Raty will become the Best of the 2021 class!!! He had a bad start playing up in the Men’s league and fell in rankings but he’s a great player. Top line winger.

Demko on Clark: "i desperately hope they can work something out."

I just ran the simulator and on the first try I got us to 2nd OA. we're all good. 

[D.B Cooper]

Oh yaaaay.  
Another win!

 

I know you can’t tell the players to go out there and lose (unless you are Buffalo) but damn.   It sucks just watching our draft position get worse and worse for no reason at all.  
 

Where the fudge were these wins earlier in the year?   
 

This goofball team can’t even tank properly.  
 

GO CANUCKS GO!

Bahh, this was no yr to eke in. Best grab another young gem(or 2), recharge & reload.

just trying for some perspective. We're not that far off, just hope Jim (or new Jim) can find a way to get a legit 3C into the mix for next year.

That’s one move that shouldn’t be messed with. Sign him immediately

Said it earlier ... all the adversity of this season will only make them stronger next year. 

[Locke Lamora]

Jeez, listening to Demmer talk about Ian Clark makes me feel some urgency that the Canucks better think hard about resigning their goalie coach.

 

 

And @DeNiro, strongly disagree with your views on Hughes, but I respect your right to have them.

can you show me a difference between 4 and 9 this year? I haven't seem much alignment at all in the different draft rankings. 

[johngould21]

Another two JB steals at the draft table. JR and WL, unbelievable. I for one am sure glad they showed patience with Lockwood, all those shoulder injuries, he looks like a keeper, and Rathbone looks like a right handed Tanev, calm and cool with the puck.

Hey - you know if the Canucks were ever going to win the lottery it will be this year.  No clear cut #1, lots of unknowns / leagues shutdown.  You know they win this year.

He isn't proven to be anything, yet, in the NHL.  And there's no way we'd get to pick him anyhow.

 

Hughes is doing ok for himself.  The fact that you devalue him discredits your opinion to me.

Didn't Lockwood also choose to stay with the Nucks because of the patience with the injury?
