Re: Canucks News N Notes 23-24

Well, if you let Hronek go (or trade him) now, Hughes might get it in his head that the team never signs his partner (Tanev, Schenn). What if we sign Tanev instead? I'm not necessarily against signing Tanev. but as a replacement to Hronek.... he's 35 years old. Yeah, nobody has enabled Hughes to ex...

The refs certainly thought so! :lol:

Re: GDT: Nucks host Habs - Mar 21/24 - 7 PM PST - SNP/TSN2

Big Zaddy is feeling it tonight!!! I wager he’ll be dropping them with a Habber before the night is over. Montreal is starting to get chippy and pissy after Guhle got elbowed. The PP is not reacting well to super-aggressive PK pressure. Double-teaming puck carriers above the circles is giving the la...

Re: Trade Deadline Week 2024

You know we did ok TDD. I mean well before but Zadorov and Lindholm are good pick ups. I’m glad All in did t go all all in. Like you say, management got who they really wanted well before the TDD, so perhaps they felt they could afford to be picky on price running up to the deadline? If they could ...

There's homers, and then there's Jack Edwards. Makes the fanbase unbearable - as if they needed help.

Have fun in Beantown, Phat...

Re: Trade Deadline Week 2024

They’ll get one of Toffoli, Vatrano, or Zucker - in that priority - and sign Phil the Trill. Silovs or Raty and a late pick will be sent out. If anyone from the big club will be sent out, think it will be the Russian. I wager we'll see the likes of Vatrano or Toffoli come this way. If Silovs is dea...

Re: Trade Deadline Week 2024

I’d like a hard physical forechecker on one of Petey’s wing and a skilled guy on the other. Toffoli and Duhaime - possible? Guentzel and Seattle’s Tanev - a dream? If Butthead and Old Fart don't land Guentzel - and I don't think he would be worth the asking price so, please, no - then getting one o...

Re: Trade Rumours & Armchair Pipe Dreams 23-24 Dedicated to SKYO

Bringing Sid has all the charm of bringing Messier 2.0. Stinks of something bad Sid is a more decent example of a human being than 'he who shall not be named' but yeah, you don't introduce a personality like that into a dressing room late in the season and expect things to go smoothly. Pass. Beside...

What else you going to do out there when the snow is blowing sideways? Exactly. I had a blizzard dump 2 ft of snow on my driveway and I've been feet up in the recliner procrastinating and smoking chongers worrying about running out I actually look forward to snow storms as an excuse to stay in and ...

If this contract comes at the expense of Joshua and Zadorov I sure hope The Balderdons are expert Salvation Army shoppers.
They did better than Macklemore last summer in the bargain bins. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt this time.

Re: Canucks News N Notes 23-24

Again, judge Lindholm once the playoffs are over. He's not playing up to snuff I agree but he's shown flashes of being a major difference maker. It takes time to wash off the Lame You’re making excuses for him. He’s no spring chicken, if he’s as good as you say, why is he taking his sweet ass time ...

Re: Canucks News N Notes 23-24

I’ll take that deal from a fan’s PoV. For eight years, that cap hit is decent - and better than some of the numbers being reported. Not quite a hometown discount, but I don’t see it hobbling management down the road. He may still value winning as much as his payday. The fact the deal got done so qui...

Re: Canucks News N Notes 23-24

He'll certainly be the team's highest paid player, regardless of the final contract that is signed. Can he handle the scrutiny of 8 more years in this market? There's not much pressure when you lose, but winning is the expectation now. With this stretch of poor play and losses to contending teams, ...
