Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

How many true #1 dmen are there in the league? Not many, joulevi is gonna be a top pairing guy, he’s a great pick and a great prospect. There's 10 defenseman averaging over 25 minutes a game - Doughty, Suter, Karlsson, Ristolainen, Hedman Pietrangelo, E. Johnson, Weber, Letang and Burns. 13 are ave...

So many mouth breathers throwing around the word bust with Juolevi.... has anyone actually said this ? I dont think so but waiting for Strange to post the links to posters who have, then RD piling on. Per - I am not saying that he will not be a steady D man but he may not turn out to be that #1 D m...

I agree there’ll be an adjustment period for him, however he should still be pretty deadly on the power play.

The truck t-boned the bus right near the front, basically demolishing the front end then flipping the bus on its side and pulling the roof right off. My wife’s family knows some of the boys families, my stepdaughter knows one of the first responders that was on scene. Both communities are in comple...

Luckily the young man I know Is in stable condition, but the loss of life from this accident is sickening, all from a blown stop sign by a truck driver.

With the team playing decent the last few games, do you guys figure it’s a good idea to bring thatcher up and let him get a couple of starts? I’m leaning towards yes.

Vanek lighting it up, I gotta think there’ll be some pissed off gms for not taking a run at him at the tdl, I really thought Anaheim coulda used him in there top 6.

The only players who are playing with some fire is the unproven youth who are fighting for jobs, the vets are out of it, even the young vets like Horvat probably is going through the motions a bit. Half the team is out with various injuries. Players who are auditioning for next season: Tyler Motte,...

I dunno, seems like most of our guys have packed it in for the season. I don't see the same fire/competitive juices as when we were beating some pretty good teams consistently early during the season. Of course, the injury situation doesn't help. Even opposing teams, they seem to feel sorry for us....

That’s right!! Don’t forget that 69! It’s the sex number

Thanks for the welcome guys and gals

I think gaudette being lower down has more to do with age than anything else. I think he’s nhl ready though.
