Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

All of Pearson, Edler, Sutter and Baertschi come off the books before Hughes and Petey get their haul. That’s $17.3 million. What’s to worry? It’s a situation where we are going to have to depend on entry level contracts moving forward. Doyle you should be happy, don’t think Benning will be in a ru...

Who did Linden throw under the bus and when?

Only problem with trading Loui is that NTC. It's easy to say 5 mil in real dollars for two years, but he has to want to go there. He's getting games now, and probably isn't coming out of the lineup anytime soon. He can and probably will wait. Come July (when it's "5 mil in real dollars for two year...

Makar hurt tonight. Day to day. Could the door open for Hughes? Would suck to win it that way - much like how Barzal took it home once Boeser went down. And it was a hit from Marchand to boot - Barzal was, in his own right, a worthy winner. Had Brock not been hurt it would have made it a lot more i...

Where does Quinn Hughes go in a redraft with what we know now? Top 7 picks of 2018 Svechnikov - 12 goals 19 assists Hughes - 2 goals 21 assist Tkachuk - 9 goals 7 assists Dahlin - 1 goal 15 assists Kotkaniemi - 3 goals 2 assists Hayton - 1 goal 3 assists Zadina - AHL I’m picking him 2nd after Svech...

I still can’t believe the bounty Iron Mike extracted from Mike Milbury for the overrated Trevor Linden. Best trade in franchise history. Umm - Bert for Luongo was the best trade in Franchise History with Nazzy for Stojanov being a close second. Edit - yes, I understand the Luongo trade doesn't happ...

Hmmm... 7 assists for Goldie in 3 games.

Kinda expected no?

Would be surprised, concerned, shocked,.. if it was 3 assists in 7 games.

Apparently, Jawn Jang and Rick Dhaliwal have been let go by Rogers

Didn't mind Jang too much, thought he fit in nicely with Sat -

Kinda glad I don't have to listen to Dhaliwal in the morning anymore, just hope he remains and insider and continues to report the news over twitter.

Dhaliwal's got a mouth made for twitter.

It wasn’t Lou’s fault. It was the referees swallowing their whistles. No it wasnt specifically his fault but he couldnt stop a beachball when his team needed him to. He certainly didnt help Lou took a team that scored a grand total of 8 goals in a series to 7 games. Doesn't matter how many he let i...

Unless the Canucks agree to eat that $4 mil cap hit for the year. What I'm saying is I don't think the NHL would let the Canucks do that because of the precedent it would create. Don't forget Loui would collect $27-$28M of a $36M contract at the halfway point of that contract (cap circumvention?). ...
