Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Steady Eddy has earned the right to be in control of his own destiny. And this is where fans emotions get in the way of hockey being a business. The only thing a player earns is the right for teams to bid on their skill sets, and that price is determined by market value based off results and intang...

You sign Vatanen, Green’s affinity for playing veterans will show itself again. Look at the playoffs. Even when the Canucks had been hemmed in all series against Vegas, Green had no thought of taking out Benn or Fantenberg and trying Juolevi. If Benning signs Vatanen we’ll see most of the minutes g...

Except we are paying him 1million too much.

How come this contract is not talked about when adding ‘shitty contracts’ together?.

Or saunter.. or brisebois..

We already know what we have in those 3, and that a whol lotta #10 defenceman.

You have to bring Edler back. Still the best all situations D man on the team. All the others can walk, ditto for 2022. Remember in 2023, not only Miller is a UFA, but so is the captain. I’m wondering when Travis Green will be extended. I think Schmidt might be our best all around guy now. But you ...

If we could get a vet for 1.5 or less for 2 years, I would go for that.

Zdeno Chara to Washington for 795K. How does Don Sweeney let that happen? He should have re-signed him. I’d be pissed if I was a Bruins fan. Totally bizarre, is Washington that much closer to a cup than Boston? I don't think so, but maybe Z does? Boston told him they want to move on The guy is a le...

fortunately Nate was right there. Fantastic pick-up, not to mention a little luck with the circumstances of him coming available. This will go down in canuck lore (with Naslund for Stojanov and White for Ehrhoff) as one of the best moves ever made in franchise history Lol. That’s a bit of a stretch.

Agree with most of your post, but Beagle is a joke when you already have Sutter. He should be a coach at this point. Beagle is only paid $500k too much, so let’s keep it in perspective. If Loui is not on the roster and we were not saddled with recapture, nobody would be complaining about the contra...

Point was UW, that the shitty contracts have fucked the team more than COVID. Could have easily retained Tanev and Toffoli without a couple of the useless pieces of shit taking up space on the 4th line. Not sure I agree with that. If we could have afforded them now, In 2 years, we don’t want Tanev ...

This means Gomer is tasting the rainbow!!!

Now repeat after me: "I spent one minute at one of the Blackhawks forums... and I've got nothing." "But I'm going to post about it anyway because I'm a fucking gomer!" Right? :drink: https://i.giphy.com/media/3o85xKRIokv92FRo52/200w.webp Right. Did Gomer seriously just post a selfie of his uncle to...

Yeah. Needs some hits and some goals.

US beat Austria 11-0
Russia beat the US 5-3
Czechs beat Russia 2-0
Sweden beat Czechs 7-1

It’s standings like that is why I love this tournament. Anything can happen.
