IslandFarm is really rocking the archives, it's floating his boat these days, so angry. He's like a kid in a candy shop. I'm stunned that I may have actually said things in the past that I may have a different opinion of now, shocking mind blowing, weird.Strangelove wrote:^ C'mon, Dude was drunk as Kadri one day after playoff elimination, it happens...

Re: OOTS: 2016-17
Im hearing ya man. Wasn't that really about Mr. WD trying to keep his job; at least that's how it appeared. Unfortunately, our exhalted Mr. Benning didn't appear to be giving Willie some direction either re: How to lose and WIN while you're doing it (e.g. get an awesome draft pick - "Willy, we need to loose ffs, an here's some shitty players from Utica you can put in the line-up and blame it on"). Instead, Willy looked all wound up and was driving his team to win; was probably worried about losing his job - of all times to sweep the California teams - GAWD. But yeah, we would have had way better odds of snapping up Laine instead of watching Linden waste a Quinn momento that was on him for good luck. BUT BUT BUT, as touched on earlier, the C -spell may be at work regardless.

Hello Brisebios, Hello 7th overall draft pick. Benning is an effin' Genius!
However, an argument could certainly be made that having Lack instead of Miller would matter sweet fuck all to the Canucks' fortunes these past 2 years.

The Leaves collapse came a bit later than expected. Kinda like Spring this year.
And now, everything somehow just feels right in the Universe, doesn't it
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

Happy for Burrows, dudes' on fire after escaping this sinking ship.Strangelove wrote:Burrows with 2 more points tonight, Sens now up 8 points on the hapless Leaves...
He said after the first game there how impressed he was with everyone's work ethic, everyone hungry for a win, blocking shots, hustling hard etc...something along those lines.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

too little - too late
- LA Daily NewsMuzzin was then fined for embellishment after the Canucks’ Michael Chaput was penalized for high sticking at 17 minutes, 41 seconds of the first period.
Video replay indicated Chaput’s stick never struck Muzzin in the face.
Massive deterrent for 2nd offense this season - not!
From the LA game thread:

The Kings are turning into worst hollywood actors
Brown was intentionally holding Sedin's stick
And Muzzin that was juts fucking embellishment
while I'm still typing.. Karma strikes! 2-0

Detroit beat Chicago last night? Thought the Wings were going full tank with their play of late

Re: OOTS: 2016-17
How many concussions has Ekbland had already? A couple more and he might be done at 21.

His concussion tonight is is third major one. Just signed his 8 year deal. Florida should shut him down for the rest of the year.
The only HW the Canucks need
