Re: GDT: Canucks host preds - Nov 5 - 7pm - SNP

Black ice is scary. If the Canucks went back to the black spaghetti plate uniforms and played on black ice, they’d be way more intimidating. I’m pretty sure some psychologist determined black uniforms would be intimidating a long time ago. https://icehockey.fandom.com/wiki/1986–87_Vancouver_Canucks_...

You can imagine the season quietly slip away competitive loss after competitive loss.
Imagine? Seems real to me.

This team is so 1986, it’s scary.

Re: GDT: Canucks host preds - Nov 5 - 7pm - SNP

As I watch another useless powerplay, I ask myself, isn’t it racist to always use white ice.
Why not black ice? With a nice neon green puck?
Or, brown ice? Maybe a yellow puck?
I think my mind is wandering as I try to focus on another boring, failed powerplay.
I’m sad.

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)

Tuch's breakaways were Canuck killers. Glad to see him going east. He has a long, cheap contract for what he brings. Nice pick up for Buffalo once he's healthy. Eichel's a monster if he fully recovers, but Vegas has a lot of pricy contracts now. Even with him, their depth should suffer and they've t...

Pretty smart for Buffalo to take the Vegas package over the one rumoured from Calgary with Tkachuk.

Re: Canucks News n Notes 21-22

Wow. Lots of love for Chiasson in this thread. Didn’t see that coming for a guy who had one goal bounce off his foot as he flailed on his stomach, and another goal when Petey hit his stick. Suddenly he’s a regular Thomas Hornqvist. When Chiasson is the leading PP scorer, it says more about how much ...

Re: Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)

Matthew is as over-rated as Brady is under-rated. If Eichel returns to form, that would be a steal for Calgary.

Re: Canucks News n Notes 21-22

Gadjovich was never given a chance by Green to show the one skill that might have been above average at the NHL level, using those sweet hands net front on the PP. Even in mean nothing games last season, or pre-season games this season he was never put in a position to succeed. That's on Green if Ga...

Re: GDT: Canucks host rags Nov 2 - 7pm - SN1

The morning skate lines are confirmed as the starting roster. Canucks need a solid first period. One where they are pushing the play for a change. Maybe being the underdog is a good thing. A convincing win tonight would go a long way in building the team's confidence to where it needs to be. And ex...

Re: Canucks News n Notes 21-22

There is no way Chiasser is getting bounced. Greener loves Chiasser, he gets his body net front, hard to do, special talent. Drinking Green’s koolaid. Chiasson’s a hack in front of the net who usually score because the puck bounces off his out of control flailings. If Green had given Gadjovich thos...
