Honestly with a captain like AM who has no heart and drive it impacts the whole team. It’s been there for years but they were able to out score their problems.

But this year, bad goaltending, bad defensive decisions and shit leadership the team lost focus.

That being said, keeping OEL would have been much better than paying him to be elsewhere, then spending a 1st for Meaty.
Meaty is a fuckin plumber. Wtf were the baldies and Blob thinking???

Not sure Mëds would be able to survive two overpaid Swedes in the lineup.

Think of that 1st as a salve for our fellow poster's soul.

Do you notice that Meaty has grass clippings glued to his face? Otherwise, it would expose his weak, Gord Miller-like, lack of chin. It's what he tries to protect at all costs during fights.

A couple good seasons and we’ll all be calling him “The Flying V”
….I hope.

Good to see a couple top picks scoring in the same game.

Stecher has been consistently playing more than Rielly since he arrived. So far tonight, he's played over 7 minutes more. This tells you how bad the Leaves D really is.

...and yes, I would take OEL over Meat.

EDIT: hmmm, did Rielly get injured? I'm not watching the game.

I actually liked OEL. Only thing I hated was the term of his deal when considering his age. He underperformed here, but outside of 2023-24 so did every Canuck not named JT or Quinn.
Somewhere in NW BC trying (yet again) to trade a(nother) Swede…..

If the Canucks kept OEL does anyone remember when his contract would have ended?

Has EP done a single bench-press or squat in his life? How do you get muscled off the puck by old man Tavares so easily? Then sluggo McCabe does the same thing to him right after that.

1 for 12 in the FO dot.
