Popular Post ilduce39 Posted July 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) 1: Linden was a terrible president but some fans can’t handle that so there’s a whole conspiracy theory about how he wanted to do all the things that would have made us successful and was tragically pushed out. This in spite of the fact the team made its worst moves of the “rebuild years” with him at the helm. 2: the skate jersey is overrated 3: we would love Tkachuk, Dustin Brown or even Marchand if they played for us. We desperately need another (skilled) rat on the roster. Edited July 22, 2022 by ilduce39 4 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48MPHSlapShot Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) Horvat is a poor defensive player. His excellent faceoff percentage and him being touted as a "strong two way player" in the 2013 draft have blinded people to that fact. Piggybacking off of what another poster said, had JT Miller been drafted by this organization most people wouldn't want him traded. Losing Manny Malholtra as faceoff coach was a massive gut punch to the organization. Benning should have tried to retain him at all costs. Our current management group will fail just as hard as Benning's group did. Without getting into details, the way it was constructed leads me to believe that selecting the best people for the job was a secondary consideration for Rutherford.

Noble 6 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Quinn Hughes is the best skater on this team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darius Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 The ‘94 team would have mauled the 2011 team and would have railroaded the 2011 Bruins at their own game. Thornton et al would have been eating fists from 4 directions. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess a few people might think Myers is a good top pairing D, but not many.) I kind of like Myers. He plays hard and he is a good player. But he is not a top-pairing D. With the right partner he could be a good 2nd pairing D. The problem is that he is not a good fit with OEL as OEL has to focus too much on covering for Myers. That is why I like trying OEL with Hughes. Myers might be pretty good playing with Dermott, as Dermott can play the "stay-at-home" role and we don't lose much in potential offence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Surfer Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Unpopular with some; although O am sure a fair few also agree? I don't get why Luongo was upset that he did not get his tires pumped. Nor did he have the class the Twins did in admitting some of the area's they got beat in the Finals. Just got mad with the scrutiny. Reality was he was the highest paid hockey player in the world at that moment. And he got outplayed. Maybe so did the Nucks? But that was his moment to earn that contract! Instead he fled. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHL'er Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 The Canucks are turning into a Swedish clubhouse. The West Coast Express was overrateed. Our defense isn't as bad as everyone here thinks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-D-D Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Agree with surfer. The moment I saw that Lou clip I knew our run was over! 1 thing I find odd is the almost apologetic way some ppl post about having a franchise goalie like Demko. Don’t recall L.A fans apologizing for havin Quick in net for their cup runs. Or Vegas and fleury when they basically got throttled by the jets and still won that series 4-1. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcakes Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 6 hours ago, Xanlet said: Vancouver will never win the Cup while the cap is flat across all teams. Taxes cause players' take-home pay to be way lower in Canada than in places like Florida and Texas. Essentially The Panthers, Lightning, and Stars get over $15m of extra cap each and there is simply no way to overcome this level of handicap. It's unpopular to say this though cause no one wants to talk about it. Least of all, the Little General Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
