EP Phone Home Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Did Elliot really say that Seattle is making a pitch for a Horvat trade? Hard pass to trade our captain to a division rival. Can’t see it happening but what a bleak day if it did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as he has sources he also spreads a lot of baseless stuff like that to stir the pot. Seems like he was just trying to connect the Bo situation to a team that was playing right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Just now, Devron said: Yeah I mean he basically said he wondered about them. I wonder about a lot of things too Exactly. That was no different than any armchair GM on here. Sometimes I think Elliotte just really wants to be a GM. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought so, much like we didn’t trade Schniderman to Edmonton, a divisional rival. The price would have to be massive but you don’t do that trade with the risk of your former captain burning you in your own turf for the rest of his career. Elliot loves to stir up Canuck nation. Absolutely loves it! Edited January 8 by EP Phone Home 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local boy would make our owner happy. The Bruins don’t have anything. Lysol is craperolla. Carlo is big and slow. The Leafs have nothing we want, except Marner. I tend to agree I don’t think sakic would deal byram and even if he was he is one bump to the head from being calling it a career… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gurn Posted January 8 Popular Post Share Posted January 8 Friedman is smart enough to realize Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal have rabid fans. Say something about those 3 teams and get lots of attention/clicks. Makes his boss happy, makes Elliot money. Rinse and repeat. Easy money. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like yeah sure sell the team to ?......grass is not always greener and how taken for granted this ownership is is disappointing. The team very easily could have been sold AND MOVED. Owners all around the league have mandates, are a part of the process and have last say. This is not unique to Vancouver, this is not a negative meddling problem the Canucks are cursed with lol When said meddling is based on a delusional evaluation on the chance this team has to actually compete and win a cup, then it absolutely is a negative meddling problem. Keep burying your head in the sand, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep burying your head in the sand, though. Some fans just don’t want to believe that there has been meddling and that’s fine, each to their own. But you look at the past 9 years (I guess it’ll be a decade come April) and you have enough of a history that tells the story. Sure having a chairman of a franchise who spends to the cap is great. That said we are in this mess because of being reckless with the cap space and cutting shortcuts. Fans are fed up with the no direction no plan other then make the playoffs and “anything can happen” in his words. From this article right here as https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/569255 Some fans won’t accept it anymore and others choose not to accept it’s happening. We are all cheering for the same team and we have our thoughts and opinions. That’s why I love it here. Not everyone is going to see it as meddling but I agree with you.

Okay just not sure why they want Myers and his 6m cap hit. They could retain Mayfield for less and he is still younger. They have their top 2 RHD signed already in Dobson and Pulock.

I know lots of people, life long die hards, who have stopped supporting or following the team, completely indifferent and apathetic towards the team and its all because of aquilini. I have heard so many times "until that clown sells the team I Want nothing to do with them". And I completely agree with your comment on being wreckless with the cap, hit the nail on the head there. I used to defend FA. "He Cares he spends to the cap bla bla" but you're 100% right. Wreckless meddling goof. More money than brains. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say something about those 3 teams and get lots of attention/clicks. Makes his boss happy, makes Elliot money. Rinse and repeat. Easy money. Well said! Also, Seattle isn't going to go crazy at the TDL. They are way over exceeding what people thought they would do this year and don't have much for prospects to offer us if they wanted to get Bo. If Bo leaves, I would guess he goes to UFA and goes for the biggest payday or he heads somewhere east that is closer to home. Unsure if he lives in Vancouver full time or not, would like to keep him but unless we unload some other high priced players before the tdl it seems we won't have the cap space to sign him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re going to trade that pick and any cap relief for a “win now” over priced aged declining player. because well you know playoff revenue. the best is when people say they’ll move the team yeah let’s move a profitable team when there so many sht No fan ones one doesn’t even have an arena but the owners will allow the Canucks to move…clueless. lolololololol Francesco circus of stupid.
