Re: I think I Know a Few Posters Who'll Enjoy this...

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=218857&hubname= Clouts on Waivers. :lol: You beat me to it. First thing I thought when I saw the article was posting it here ;-) Have to say I also feel for the guy. I never thought he was a bad goalie - seemed to have all the right physical attributes for the g...

Not sure how long it takes one to recover from a hairline fracture - says on tsn that they are hoping he will only be out 3-4 weeks. Anyone know if that is reasonable or just hopeful?

Salo Wrist Injury

Hopefully this is only a sprain but sounds like it could be broken.

Shaw or Starchoice for HD?

Being over in Edmonton I am getting sick of not being able to see very many Canucks games and am looking into getting cable/sat. I figure that I may as well get HD as I have an HD TV (athough I know not very many games are going to be in HD) and after some initial research see that the HD receiver c...

History major actually, but I'll take it as a compliment I guess... Just so there is no confusion concerning my previous statement regarding "diplomacy", as SRsez seems to view it as an insult or as he so eloquently put it "bullshit," here is the definition "skill in managing negotiations, handling...

anyone thinking Roy was a leader is on crack. Nothing like a bit of argumentum ad hominem to brighten my day. But as this seems to be devolving into a proverbial case of mudslinging instead of fact-based discussion it is probably most efficacious to curtail it. But really, arguing over who is bette...

Firstly, the Conn Smythe Trophy is awarded to the MVP, not "the best leader". As I stated in my previous points, leadership is by example. I would say that being the most valuable player in the playoffs is setting a pretty good example and thus evidencing leadership. Thus while the Conn Smythe is n...

Interesting that you think Brodeur is such a better leader than Roy as last time I checked Roy had 3 Conn Smythe's and Brodeur had 0. It would seem to me that the best leaders lead by example at those times when it is needed most (ie playoffs). So I don't think that having been given three awards re...

Roy hands down. Gretzky or Lemieux? Now wait just a damn minute. Brodeur is everything Roy was but more & he's not a whiny snivelling me-first kind of guy. Plus, he banged his sister-in-law. :shock: Brodeur in a walk - it's not even close. Brodeur is the best to ever play, at least until Luongo can...

Another Defenseman???

Canucks acquire Fitzgerald from Blues. Also resign Balej.

Is Nonis going to pull the trigger on something - seems we are getting a LOT of D-men.

The following is stated based upon the premise that we want the team to get better and to be a contender. If that is the case, which I think it would be safe to assume, I would tend to disagree with some of the sentiments noted here. Yes, the Canucks have an awesome defense. Yes, the Canucks have ar...

I'm sure he's looking, but I honestly think people are expecting way too much here. A lot of fans have this blind faith that Nonis will pull a superstar winger out of thin air. If he gets anyone -- which is not certain, seeing as he has until the trade deadline to make changes -- he'll look more li...

Re: And the dismantling begins!

Hmmmn. Given the cap hit associated with these two signings, does it make sense for Nonis to fire in an offer for Pitkanen? I had posted something similar to this thought in your other thread on the Flyers. Then after looking at this post I decided to take a look at the numbers. nhlnumbers.com has ...

Just came across this - http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog.php?post_id=8068 - is it still possible to send an offer sheet to a player that is undergoing arbitration?
