Re: GDT: Canucks @ Blues 5pm PST
Five more games this month, they can now take a deep breath and decompress a little. There's no question the special teams are fantastic, and should only improve with Booth coming back, and Manny regaining some confidence and jump. But if there is one area of concern I've seen trending downwards for...

Re: Trade Deadline Discussion
Moen and Jackman would be worthy additions from the "reasonably acquirable" list. I don't see a guy like Asham being on that list myself, but I'd take him too. I have a feeling there will be a crazy bidding war for Gleason. He's interesting, to be sure, but may be hard to acquire. Aucoin out of Pho...

Re: Corey Perry to Canucks Rumour
I've seen enough of Alberts, and I wouldn't be surprised if Gillis has as well. There needs to be a strong element of grit and toughness among the 6-8D, and Alberts has regressed IMO. While I think Gill would have a little more to offer, I'm not sure if the extra mill would be worth it. It does clea...

Trade Deadline Discussion
The 2011/2012 NHL Trade Deadline is on February 27th, 12PM PST. Seeing as there is more and more discussion about what Vancouver needs to acquire, and even the odd rumours floating around, I figured it might be time to get the ball rollin'. Even if it is a little early. :P Just a few names I wouldn'...

Re: Corey Perry to Canucks Rumour
I don't think so. He doesn't bring anything to the table that would enhance what this blueline needs...toughness and a right-handed shot. His questionable health is an even bigger minus.Vpete wrote:

Re: From Bountiful to Ponoka
A great trade thread started over at Calpuke. Most of the inbreds have sent the season slagging their players now go see what value they feel some are worth. A 1st and a prospect for Rene the renegade! But it looks like they are throwing in the towel, albeit late, but begrudgingly most seemed to ha...

Re: GDT: Jan 9 - Canucks @ The Beach - 4:30PM - SNET Pac
I'm not sure MG wants to blow cap room on bringing Tanev up when he has healthy bodies to play on D. Any time line on Salo? Of course, but it's only a matter of time before the annual parade to the infirmary takes place on the blueline, at which point Tanev will be the first to get the call. Looks ...

Re: GDT: Jan 9 - Canucks @ The Beach - 4:30PM - SNET Pac
that said I hope Old Luggage Eyes will get a prick or two to play on the 4th line with Lappy and that Manny is a 13th or 14 th forward come playoff time. We could also use a prick (Gleason) on the ass end too but knowing MG he will probably think we can win with our PP. I too think the bottom pairi...

Re: The BS Suspension Thread
What I think will come into play with Shanahan's decision, should he punish Marchand even further, was that Marchand already had control of the puck, but opted to leave it to make a completely unnecessary hit. The reason hitting is permitted in the game is to check a player in control of the puck wi...

Re: 11/12 Injury Thread
So TSN reported on Sportscentre that Booth is indeed cleared to play, but isn't expected to suit up tonight against the Panthers. I know AV has an internal rule that he likes his guys to have X # of practices with the team prior to getting game action, I'm curious as to how many full practices he's ...

Re: GDT: Canucks @ Beantown - 10am - Snet / NHLN-US
I agree Tant.
All in all, I applaud the job the refs did yesterday as it must have been one of the more difficult games they'll face all (regular) season.

Re: 11/12 Injury Thread
Good point re: the CBA Coco, one thing I did not consider moving forward on the Malone discussion. In other news, it seems the Penguins ongoing reign of terrible bad luck continues. Staal will be out with a Booth-like injury for 4-6 after colliding with Rupp. And now they've lost Neal for "weeks" wi...
