Re: NHL business

If we’re going down a path where you have to make positive health choices any time you’re putting yourself at risk to keep hospitalizations down that’s a pretty slippery slope too. By that standard we should be forcing everyone to get ample sunlight or take vitamin D, exercise every day, maintain a...

Re: NHL business

I think some folks here are seriously underestimating how dystopian it is that the government is setting up a system whereby they can easily track your personal health decisions and punish or reward you based on them. The idea that we are allowing such a system to be put in place, even encouraging i...

Re: Canucks News n Notes 2019-2020

Has anyone else notice that Demko is currently leading the league in GAA and is 2nd in the league in SV%? He has 3 starts and is neck-and-neck with Rask who has 5 starts. Marky is lagging at 9th in the League, goalie controversy time! The eye test tells me Marky looks a bit more solid, but exciting...

If Colorado wants to talk about Bo the conversation better start with Makar. (I can't see there being anything to this.)

All the more reason why I'd just as soon as just spend $10M-$11M per on EK,
Stead fast Sky, stead fast. You just might get me believin by June 30th.

Re: Vancouver's Hockey "Media"

I'm not gonna post all the stuff I'm hearing for Botch just two that caught my eye. Condolences from Torts of all people this morning at his presser, and Elias Pettersson was, I think, the first Canuck. Interesting on the players side of things, other than Elias, nobody seems to give a shit. Kinda ...

Re: Vancouver's Hockey "Media"

Gutted. I've got a 2 year old and couldn't imagine not being there for him as be grows up. Just feel so incredibly terrible for his family. I thought Botch was entertaining. I didn't always agree with him, but he was passionate and fun to listen/read. Canucks coverage won't be the same - he was real...

Re: Trade rumours & armchair pipe dreams 18-19 Sponsored by SKYO

I love the twins, but I'm not sure they make us better if they come back. Team speed would just disappear when they're out there, and defensively they could be an issue. Maybe as 4th line guys / PP specialists with limited minutes, but I just don't see it happening. (More concisely: nay.)

Gotta think there is zero chance we trade the 2019 1st when we are hosting the draft.

Re: Trade rumours & armchair pipe dreams 17-18 Sponsored by SKYO

Carolina also has 3 young Dmen ahead of him in the lineup that would need to be protected in an expansion draft, along with strong prospects coming through the pipes. He's also gonna get paid, but isn't playing top 4 minutes, and has high value due to draft position. It sort of makes sense for them ...

Re: Trade rumours & armchair pipe dreams 17-18 Sponsored by SKYO

Here's a question for the armchair GM's: If we can get Karlsson, would you rather roll the dice and offer our next 2 1RPS, or this year's 1RP and Boeser? #7 and a 1st next year (esp if top 3 protected) over #7 and Boeser for sure. Karlsson is a game changer, we'd probably be in the playoffs next ye...

Re: The 2018 NHL Entry Draft

I'd like Benning to try and trade up for Boqvist - he's the type of guy we need. (RHD with massive offensive upside.) Dobson does sounds good too... And if Wahlstrom gets picked you gotta think we're picking a Dman in the 2nd round.

Burrows on waivers. Bring him home.
