Canucks News n Notes 21-22

[ESQ]

I think there might be something in the new CBA to prevent a Meier type situation from occurring again.

You are correct sir!

I've mentioned it a few times...

I would actually have no idea, I don't share the Doctor's ability to have all of the details of the CBA at the tip of my tongue.

I probably ask the most questions about CBA minutia, and I'm waiting for the day I can stump Doc!

Ok. I am over the loss to the Oilers.

So, where does the lynch mob start?

Wait until they are 20 games into the season before doing anything rash. It's really too early to tell how things will shake out, not only for the Canucks, but for all the teams in the Pacific. Do you really think Vegas is as bad as their record to date indicates? I'm a Flames fan and I'm not reading too much into their hot start - everything could still implode on them.

Pretty balanced there x'pat, truth is we don't know where the Canucks will be after 2o games: appreciating/ hoping for a turn around re: goal scoring or looking at hell. Gonna be lots of eyes on the nucks - rangers game

Think we still need a #3C center.

Our top faceoff dudes: Miller #1, Horvat #2, Lammikko #3.

Dickinson F/O% 37.7 and Petey F/O% 31.3 are both bad in the faceoff dot.

Dicky is solid but for whatever reason he just doesn't win the big draws. If he did he'd probably be worth alot more on the cap.

I find it quite interesting that faceoff coaching is so important. Manny Mo was a painful loss

We can probably hire him back when he gets fired in Toronto

Why wait 20 games?

What we see now from Green is what we have seen since he came here. I did not want him resigned, but they did and as a Canucks fan I hoped for the best. Well 7 games in and I see the same fucked up team that I have seen for a while, sure there is a lot of blame to be spread around starting with JB, Coaching and players but JB only has one option.

meh. I wasnt really raging about the Canucks. I was just bored and looking for a riot.

[Curmudgeon]

So Hamonic comes up, Rathbone goes down. Probably Pod next down for Petan or Di Giuseppe.

Di Giuseppe would make some sense. He's been their best forward down there on a pretty consistent basis. Petan doesn't really add anything up here but he is a very good AHL center and Abby suffers when he's not there.

You'll have to fly out here one time to participate in really good riot MCP. There's really nothing like a good Vancouver sports riot, every Canucks fan should experience it once in their lifetime. If it isn't on your bucket list, it really should be

You're right, no doubt. I only put it out there because of the positional issue with Dickinson wounded and Dowling out, but from the little I saw, PDG's the guy.

[Megaterio Llamas]

Mr Aquilini getting 'frustrated.'

This doesn't auger well for Travis' job security I don't think:

I didn't realize Dickinson was hurt that badly?

[Curmudgeon]

Catching "Donnie & Dhali" and they're talking about people being down on Poolman and I don't get it. At the time, I thought the signing was questionable at best, but IMO he's easily played up to his contract so far.

[Curmudgeon]

Meg, Dickinson missed some game and practice time, so I was assuming he was still on the mend. Could be wrong though.

With the Aquilini tweet, I saw it the other night and think I mentioned it in another thread, pretty ominous sign for sure. Who knows with this team. lol
