Meanwhile, has anyone heard about the job Granato and Castonguay are doing - or have they really been relegated to coffee and sandwich girls?? We talk about Allvin being in over his head, but where is that vaunted collection of hockey minds they brought in? I’m just as disappointed with them because ...

Czechia was in it till Canada pulled away in the third. A good test for the boys. More so than if they played France first.

Isn't that what those tablets are for?

Ok, now i know the puppet of Horvat on this board.
Hi Bo, do another one.

#Horvatwhisperer

Imagine, instead of Pettersson-Miller-Hughes as a core, we had Horvat-Necas-Hughes???

#managementchosethewrongcore

Looking at Necas in this game just makes you wonder what could have been if management had traded Pettersson for him per the rumors. Necas looks as dynamic now as Pettersson was in his heyday.

The only hope we have left is that Pettersson starts giving a shit about hockey again and mans-up.

Diduck was in that package...91/92 92/93 he racked up 400 PIM'S for us..... Really liked Gerald. Diduck was one of the underrated parts of the '94 run. Guy was a savage against Calgary that year. Solid defender. Just didn't have much offense to him. Like a faster, more skilled Robert Dirk who ...

McKennna's felony charge withdrawn That didn't take long Upon further review of video evidence, prosecutors believe that McKenna " did not act with the intent to cause serious bodily harm nor did he recklessly act with extreme indifference to the value of human life." Fuckin’ pussy. Take Verhoeff. ...

After this long, I'd like to think that we're all here for each other.....

Group therapy for old, cranky bastards.

I think that's consensus. I don't think anybody is projecting them as anything more than good middle-6 forwards. Still good third lines are key to playoff fortunes down the road.

Blueger leads all Canucks with four goals and seven points in eight games since returning to the lineup on Jan. 21. With Pettersson, Kane, and DeBrusk on the ice, the Canucks have been caved in at even-strength since Blueger’s return. Here’s how badly the Canucks have been out-attempted with those t ...

You made me spit out my beer!!

Yes. And word is he preferred LA. Other teams involved but he wanted to go there. Greentree is a guy I wanted the Nucks to trade EP for. Miller is younger, but imagine if that was all management got for him?? Give the Baldies this: they haven't done too bad in the returns for they got for shipping ...

Bluegers, interviewed by Iain MacIntyre, said this: "I think we’ve got to find some character in our group. I know we have some good guys that want to win and know how to win and to compete and play hard, but I think we’ve got to find it as a team. ... You know, we probably don’t have enough chara ...

Thanks for that UW. I wish Canada was a bit more understanding of “fighting words”…..the whole world would benefit from laws that allowed people to handle situation that way…..there would be a lot less antogonism, and a bit more mutual respect shown. As an aside….. How do you punch someone in the fa ...

Switching channels a smidge... The Ruck brothers are gaining more attention as we get closer to the draft. They seem to be falling into the draft range of Minny's pick and Vancouver's 2nd-rounder. Would they be worth it, if Van could snag both? If Vancouver gets one, does management then get caught ...
