This Kevin Stenlend seems like a potential trade target for Rutherford to me.

Un question...

When do you drop Mein Kampf from the best seller's list and into the Free Bin?

When book burnings come to Canada?

When Anne decides to lose her virginity?

When one of Van's IR centremen return?

He's such an effective shadow, you can't even see him out there. He's practically invisible.

You get enough players like Reichel, and Kampf, you can go fully stealth.

Completely forgot Blueger even existed.

You do NotSee these guys on the ice. Wehr? Macht.

Sorry, if you keep lobbing softballs, I have to crush them.

Remember before the season started when we all threw our heads back and laughed at the notion of the Utah’s being better than us? Oh the memories, how led astray we were.

Stay competitive, Rutherford. Stay competitive

Utah is almost as shit as Van Cheffrey.

Van played a pretty good game but they have nobody who can put pucks in nets. The hesitation in prime scoring opportunities is a trend for these guys. Why aren't they practicing one touch passing and one timers? What the fuck do they every practice? Skating drills?

Utah's goaltender hasn't been great. Plenty of rebounds and shaky stops.

All this talk of the Canucks deserving a better fate smacks of homerism. This is a skill issue, as in Vancouver lacks it.
Utah's goalie is the only reason they won this game. Super lucky tonight.
Yeah, that's what I mean. He was shaky AF, could have been beaten if the Canucks weren't always looking for that perfect shot.
Somewhere in NW BC trying (yet again) to trade a(nother) Swede…..

Remember how obsessed we were with fixing our D? Oh we tried, at the expense of our forward group. We then kept saying to ourselves to soothe our concerns - “all good, we don’t need scoring, with our defence and goaltending, we just need to win 2-1 games.”

I'd like to know what the baldies saw in Markus Pettersson to warrant offering up that 1st for him. I see a 3rd pair calibre dman at best on a decent team. I know we desperately needed capable defenders but sheesh man...dude is pretty average

A first AND 6 years 33 million with a 3 year No Move and a modified No Move thereafter.

It's like Halloween around here with contract goodies.
