He's routinely at or near the top of TOI for Canucks forwards.. I think he's a trading chip for this off-season and JR wants his value increased. His QO bothers me.

They should both be better but they are both worse and it's killed this team. In the late 70's the Canucks drafted Jere Gillis #4 overall. He scored 23 goals in his rookie year of which 18 or 20 were in the first half of the year (it was a long time ago lol). He never scored more then 13 the rest of his career. Point is that initial success is no guarantee of long range success. Hope that isn't the case for EP and BB Edited January 15, 2022 by Moe Knows draft error 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.B Cooper Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Meh. That was to be expected. The run was fun, but we have zero reason to think we could compete with any of these teams. EP was horrid, Brock was invisible, Demko was fairly average. Im glad we are coming back to earth now, instead of after the trade deadline. There is lots of work to be done with this team. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K PureCool Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Well time to rebuild the rebuild. We seriously overestimated are so called 'stars'. Hughes and Demko are the only one worth building around in terms of the young core. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHL rocks Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 2 minutes ago, DontMessMe said: His QO bothers me. Yes. 7.5 mill is too high. I think he takes a 1 year QO contract and try to improve his stats next season. I don't know how canucks sign him to a big money long term deal or how BB takes a long term discounted deal.. Canucks would want him under 6mill long term. It's worth it for BB to bet on him self and also be 2 mill overpaid with his 7.5 mill QO next season.. I think he takes the 7.5 mill 1 year deal for next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This argument means nothing ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I just think the blame Green narrative is silly and unlikely to be the reason BB and EP continue to struggle. Miller played the best hockey of his career under Green after leaving teams coached by Cooper and Vigneault. I hope they both snap out of it because we are a better team when they perform. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The contract that bothers me the most, is OEL. I know alot of people are defending it, but I dont see how he is worth 7.26M.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 51 minutes ago, Canuckfanforlife82 said: Why does Petey deserve mercy in the wave of criticism? He’s been awful and makes so much money. Because if he doesn’t turn things around… our team is looking at a decade more of futility. I am confident he will be fine. He does have to be a superstar, just a 60-80 point guy who is also decent defensively. Barring something crazy happening, that is still his floor. Young players stumble all the time and have bad years. If you hear coaches and veterans talk, a lot of success in the NHL is learning how to be a pro. Petterson is still years away from his prime. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Great day of sports watching for me I'm a huge UFC fan NFL fan and NHL fan. Those 3 are my main 3 sports. Canucks game 10am NFL 1:30 pm NFL 5:30 pm UFC 4 pm Pats playing tonight Bucs tomorrow. Both teams I cheer for. UFC is not ppv, its a fight night.. Just the main event is the only must watch fight for me... So I'll manage between ufc and NFL.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People need to smarten up. They've got their long wanted "experienced coach" they got one. It's only 3 games. And tough teams too. Green wouldn't have gotten a bye though he'd have been crucified. Maybe we just aren't good enough yet and need some better players? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This goes to confirm this roster truly isn't good enough. I wonder what the series wouldve been like if STL was 100% and had home ice advantage.
