In terms of effort? Yes.

In terms of expected results? No.

Sure, but did you forget that this was one of the worst all-time teams in history? We're trying to bring in skill for the foreseeable future. We've been talking about needing the kill to protect that skill, so what's DPete going to do? Get fighting lessons from MeatPetey on how to protect his chin ...

Xhekaj just turned 25. EPJr 22 I'd rather Arber in my lineup than DPnot40. Their ages are why I think it makes sense..... When I said I don't see DP25 as anything more than a bottom-pair guy when we're competitive, the same can be said of Xhekaj, but I think the latter helps us more than the former ...

I suspect he will have the last laugh.

Even then it's not as good without the odd dick and assholes.....

You're mistaken, Mëds. Edler was brought in to be the goalie coach. That would actually make the most sense for him. Honestly, I don't think there would be much effect if all 3 Peteys were suddenly no longer on this roster. I’m inclined to see the Canucks trade them all and ban the name from any fu ...

Douglas is a borderline NHL player at best and not really all that tough compared to some others. I’m with Topper at this point in D-Petey. I don’t see anything more than a 3rd pairing there. So I don’t see him being a part of this organization’s future when they are actually competitive. Maybe worki ...

As much as I like to joke about the “inbred” nature of this refacing of the front office, I think we are at least seeing guys who have a plan and are executing their plan. The former FG’s (TFFGs?) never seemed to have any kind of plan beyond keeping Hughes happy and running interference for Scooter. ...

‘26 1st (28th) Pick, Gallagher, Arber Xhekaj For DeBrusk, Elias Pettersson (D) Why trade EP25? To make room for Xhekaj? I'm skeptical that EP25 (or Xhakaj) will ever be more than a 3rd pairing guy (but he's still quite young and has 4-5 or maybe even top 4 potential). But today he is as good of a h ...

Rebranding on the horizon…..

Only if they take Scooter too.

From Topper’s link…..

Elliott grew up in Surrey, British Columbia, and earned a PhD from Simon Fraser University specializing in aboriginal self-government and liberal democracy.

Glad she didn’t win.

Gallagher can come with a sweetener, not for an asset (even one as low as a 5th). He's only a liability to Montreal. 7 goals, 16 assists, healthy scratch throughout the playoffs. Make them pay to offload it. The Montreal cap situation isn't bad… They might even have an interest in EP40.... EP40 for ...

With Gallagher all but confirming he wants to be traded for his last year and won’t be back in Montreal and is really open to coming to Vancouver, would you trade a 4th or 5th to get him for the year? Would he be one of those vets who could help our young team and help rebuild the culture. Depends w ...

Vegas in 6. But i don't like it. I didn't like Vegas for their first few seasons.....just because of the way the NHL served it up on a silver platter for them. BUT..... They have managed their assets shrewdly, they play a well coached, 200 foot game, and they play for each other. I'm indifferent on ...
