Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Hughes will be the tough one.He's probably above Leon money in two years Yup, but the good news is we'll be able to afford it. I've always had in the back of my head that he might want to join his brothers someday. There are lots of siblings in the NHL throughout the years, and it hasn't been a ton...

Ugly hit by Xhekaj on Stutzle tonight. Pre-season and this is the shit being pulled? I hope the Habs bury him in the minors and let him rot. https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/games/f39e3c77-6679-4b91-89a8-755770a3cc19/ Suspend him a full season. Ahl too. That's a bullshit hit. Late. Blind side. H...

I'm with ya.. He's practicing like he's already on the 3rd pair, and the media always include him as having made the team.. but any games I watched looked like there's no way he should make the team

Latest roster moves Lekkermaki sent down, not surprised. He's less raw then most other prospects, but still raw. Hopefully he's a call up early in the year. PDG - not surprised either. He's really not been noticeable since his great run early last year. Seemed like he was battling for one spot and ...

I think Raty has earned a spot on this team. Perhaps it may in part depend on Bluegar’s health? Raty has improved in all areas of his game and he has an above average shot. I hope they find a way to keep him. But if not, playing 18-19 minutes a night under Malhotra will only help his game. I share ...

Good on the canucks for making a game of it. Still not sure wtf the coaching staff is thinking

Just seen bits and pieces of the game.. keep seeing Ty Mueller creating chances everywhere.. has he been good?

Wasn't it like a decade of us playing scrubs till the last minute, then being shocked when the real games started and the team was a tire fire. And then last year they finally got the opening night lineup going early in preseason, hit the ground running and we had one of our best starts ever? And no...

Just started watching. wtf is up with the Kraken feed showing a bad 3d logo of theirs for seconds at a time rather than showing replays? so odd

Pettersson... I believe he's going to get better than he was end of last season, but he's far and away the guy who is either going to make or break this team. I believe how long it takes Demko to get healthy, how healthy he gets, and how long he can stay healthy are what's going to make or break th...

This schedule isn't going to allow much time for Tocchet to get his roster together - maybe the last game against edm will be the only full team team? 3 days off before that game too so you'd hope the fat is trimmed by end of second to last game, and that week is all practice plus that last game wi...

I’m hoping Debrusk finds another gear in his arsenal of gears with a new home here, fingers crossed. Chef just gets the shivers thinking ‘what if he doesn’t find another gear.’??? You compared him earlier to the Loui signing, but that signing was for high-end UFA money at the time. today, 5.5 mil p...

My opinion is we need an upgrade to the top 4 D to play with Hughes or Soucy if Hronek goes back with Q. Juulsen and Forbort need to 7-8, Myers and Desharnais should be the 3rd pair. This is the biggest hole in the team I think, a true top 4 to push Soucy and Myers back in to 4/5D territory where t...

Ricky spoke post practice yesturday, your 1st line is correct 2nd line, Cohog forces Debrusk to his off wing (he can play it), Sherwood was mentioned, Sushi an outside possibility. Sprong mentioned with a lot of caveats about his game without the puck. He also mentioned Scooter needs to start drivi...

I know it's early but how do people see the lines shaping up? Maybe not opening night but once healthy as a few guys sound like they may miss the first week or so: Heinan Miller Boeser Debrusk Pettersson Garland/Hogs/Sprong Joshua Suter/Blueger Garland/Hogs/Sprong Sherwood Suter/Blueger Garland/Hogs...
