Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Jerusalem is mentioned in the bible, and no where in the Quran. The Israelis are fighting for their home. The Palestines are fighting because that's what they do. I buy Sabra Hummus, own a Tar-21 and support Israel 100%. Does Israel seem to ignore the conventions of modern warfare? I think so, but ...

That's 3 1st round draft picks in a deep draft. Should be a good start for a re-build.

The scouts have done an about face on this draft with them now saying the top ten are good but after that it is a week draft.

I did not listen but over on HFBoards they're saying Pierre Lebrun was on the TEAM 1040 with Farhan Lalji yesterday and he (Lebrun) speculated that Iginla wants to finish up in Vancouver. Giving up Gaunce or Jensen would be a mistake. How about a first rounder this year and a lower level prospect l...

He apparently did a lot to decrease illiteracy and the wealth gap. Developed the country, supplied oil to the poor, blah blah. He's pals with Iran, that's enough for me to dislike him. Not to mention the mainstream US media told me he's a baddie so I don't ask any questions... I just wave my stars ...

The bigger thing is if Florida was/is a shopper for Luongo, does this turn of events make them more or less of a buyer? At this point, you may as well mail in the season if you're Dale Tallon. Why trade for Luongo now? Even if Luongo's available at the draft, would Tallon be willing to part with hi...

That is funny :

So umm ... who else saw The Walking Dead last night? No spoilers please but OH WOW! I agree with you. Oh wow says it all. Walking Dead are breaking all the rules. The scene where the guy named Otis got done by Shane was one of the most upsetting things I have seen on the tube. The way he pulled a h...

As the team has become more "successful", expectations have naturally risen. But expectations, especially from the MSM (which fuels those of the fans), are rarely met in professional sports. There are just too many random factors that will influence the "success" of a team. We are so lucky as fans t...

The Singularity is Near by Ray Kurzweil. It's science, which is usually not my gig, but this one is intriguing. The author is a certified genuis who has been on the cutting edge of the computer industry since the 60's. It explains how real AI is close and that it will explode our progress a thousan...

I got to agree with the comments about our media. The only one I like is Bullis and his blog and Botchford. The rest of them are shameful. I sat and watched Gallagher get set up on air by a Boston media type. He all but served his whiny ass up on a plate for Thornton to dis. I do not like the Boston...

I do not know if this should be a new topic or not as it has to do with the Sedins, Vancouver and the media. I have spent years reading the posts about the canucks. i went on TSN this morning to check the score of the Carolina game and almost all the posts were from haters. The closest thing that lo...

If we had Pronger we would have won the Cup. As far as hate goes I got Marchand in my heart. His abuse of Sedin and his comment about 'cause I felt like it" will always be a prize winner. To bad the little douch bag did not add the truth about he feels like it when they do not punch back. Come the n...

Brad Marchand was a man at least it seemed that way Until the day he met Jackie Now Jackie was fat and smelled like a rat but Brad said she reminds me of mummy But Jackie was hid behind lipstick and gin and the truth was the lady had a jonny One night real late Brad went on a date with Jackie, her s...
