Carlyee; The Canucks last 3 games have been very entertaining.
Micky107; Considering the tough schedule, the team has shown admirably.
Uncle dans leg; I find the games more enjoyable when we score at least one more goal than the opposition.

Re: 2019 offseason
Notice the Blues and Bruins don't have anyone massively overpaid?
Not one player making over $7.5M per who is Tarasenko, Krejci is next at $7.25M per.
Drafted and developed talent over the years and made shrewd but hard to make trades while trading fan favourites with zero fucks given for the long term health of the franchise, team said fuck the media, fuck the fans, we are going to do what's right for the future. aha
Also sold players with a year left on contract for picks. (looks at Tanev ).
That's how ya win if you don't ever get lucky to win 1st overall talents like the Penguins and Blackhawks have.
Also why I don't want to overpay for Panarin or EK anymore in this salary cap era.
The best UFA signing last summer was Perron by the Blues for 4 years @ $4M per.

Re: 2019 offseason
It’s a fair point that some of us have tried to drive into a few concrete skulls here. Cap space matters. You either know how to manage a cap or you don’t. Yet some are licking their lips wanting Myers and/or Gardiner for six or seven years.

Point being, they should be among the highest paid in the game.
But see, before he left, Jimmy taught them how to negotiate with star players.
Gotta love that Horvat contract....

Cap space does not matter in a rebuild.

Re: 2019 offseason
Higgins and Garrison and Edler and Hamius and Keslers full term NTC’s have been a problem for us thanks to the Players Agent. Benning knows how to modify trade clauses in the last couple years on contracts. Yup and what a coup the Horvat contract is!

Interesting that you feel the need to comment on it when you "don't give a flying one about [it]", but then it stands to reason that is how someone would amass as many posts as you.
I don't recall ever saying anything about exclusively posting in that thread but please continue with your erroneous narrative.Strangelove wrote: ↑Fri Jun 07, 2019 4:15 pmWhatevs pal, you go right ahead and post exclusively in that thread 24/7/365, it's all good, knock yourself out!
This is perhaps the best of your nearly 20,000 posts. Maybe you should stick to gifs and pictures exclusively?

Uncle Dan's Leg, made reference to Bandy, on some other thread, so I looked into it and was aghast.
.
I though it was like the roller hockey we sometimes played at the Richmond ice center in the summer.
This may well be the most ridiculous game I have ever seen.
FFS, don't ever let the NHL rule's makers see the size of the nets.
