Just look at Kharlamov dangle...they had zero scouting info on a helluva team loaded with talent. To dig deep and win that one with the world watching was something to be proud of for Canada, even if they played a little dirty

If you need air...call it in

And then end up with an * as big as Reef's pool win! :D

When the fix is on at the league, we will never get 1st overall pick. This is what makes the 'team tank' people silly.
Who are these “team tank” people you speak of? I saw Wids use that saying the other day as well.
Lol, Hargraves is still a little oversensitive about these things. :mrgreen:

Adam Gaudette can introduce you to them.
LOL, Right on!
Adam pushin for Edler's A next year. :)

Be nice to retrieve a second rounder though. thru a trade or something. I gotta dig deeper.
Everything still very dependent on whether these * playoffs can actually go all the way to the cup.
It's real good the players will actually be training again. Over three months without being on blades is unprecedented for most.
Edler has a NMC.

Wait... if the season is toast, NJ will not participate in the Phase 2 Laffy Lotto... right?

EDIT: They have Arizona's 1st, but it's lottery protected, Coyotes' win and NJ gets their 2021 pick instead - I think

The overlooked result of that booing is under rated or not acknowledged..... the team turned around and won the damn tournament.
Phil Espo is probably still pissed about it
I’m sure it hurt ... Canadians booing Canadians against the ruskies ....Gotta hurt but they brought their “E” game that day and previous games
I was 11 years old when I saw him do that LINK I felt terrible cause I was so pissed at them too. Just had to be Van, didn't it..
Lol, the Vancouver Boo Birds were booing EVERYTHING in those days, you had to see it coming...

Not really. I never have advocated for a tank. From 2015-18, the Canucks were SO devoid of talent that anyone with 1/4 brain knew they were a bottom 3 team, it isn’t being a tanker to know that the team was shitty from Oct 1.

The players aren’t wired to “tank”, that is a misnomer from the piss pond. These guys want to win and succeed.

Hey man, I'm just pointing out that you're oversensitive.

Everyone else knew who he meant by "team tank".

You thought he might be talking about you! :lol:

JD Burke for one, but social media (where a lot of the fringe fans are) are all over it.
Ahhhh...... I thought you were speaking about folks on this board.
:lol: :lol: :lol:



But I should have known better than to call an oversensitive guy oversensitive...
