Optimistic or not, it’s a defensible position - a 1st rounder is an asset. RJ could put it in a package too

Isn’t LA the obvious landing spot? His wife has ties there and is an influencer. He once used to aspire to having a brand and I dare say his scooter riding ways would be more acceptable than in sneering Raintown. They need a star center after Kopitar and are not rebuilding. They have a 17th OA to p ...

This new NBA-esque situation of superstars forcing trades seems like a superstar thing not an American thing. When Bédard and Celebrini force their way to Vancouver we’re gonna be ok with it

Brian Burke to the Hall of Fame. (...also in the '26 class Bergeron, Price, Rinne, Tkachquits old man and some gash named Cindy Curley). Burke might be responsible for my hockey interest. Sports talk with Dan Russell had his hit on Wednesday nights which was production night at the SFU peak and we ...

DeBrusk is a finisher on the power play. I think a natural fit would be to Edmonton for one of their horrible contracts to get a high pick down the road - they may have to rebuild after McJesus bolts but be willing to ante up now.

With the draft being the closest thing of relevance keeping scouting and player development in place for now makes a bit of sense. Player Dev, which they were a large part of, was the one thing CoPoHo's said needned much improvement. RyJo said he needs to find and Abby GM, what are the manny ...

I don't care too much about their 'X's and O's' skills as long as the system they bring in is digestible to the youngsters. I recall hearing that Foote's system in the defensive zone was hard for the youngsters to get used to. This is exactly why I would care about the Xs and Os skills. Foote was ...

Idk I like the vibe What could the Co-POHo-Bros say, the whole plan? They said they are gonna make sure RJ is through and RJ said he’s going to get every department into elite level. And yet they sounded modest and respectful. With the ownership being what it is at the best of times, and this being f ...

This nephew is getting more viz. What is the deal here? Whose kid is he? Is he involved in the Paolo allegations somehow?

Stenberg looks to be the real deal. While I would take McKenna over him, he is the real deal deal too. Agreed on both - hoping we get 1st. Would be OK to get 2nd. 3rd will be crapshoot. Yes, but also the lack of consensus could mean opportunity. If there are 6 players there who seem like top of the ...

I enjoy watching LK. No Burrows physically but all kinds of crafty, very smart offensive player just kind of slow

Well that was an eventful day. Not to be a Pollyanna because the team is still owned by AIG, who have significant financial and personal challenges that cannot be setting a great tone, but I liked the JR presser a great deal. I thought he was cogent and reasonable. Shouldered the blame, and put ...

Deal on Brittania is getting to silly status. There will only be one ice sheet. No room to build a second sheet on the site. Will be shared with the public. What's in it for the Canucks? A dressing room, gym and a conference/video room? Unbelievable…which is to say, that figures I think it’s nice to ...

At 1oa, we take McKenna. If it is 2 or 3, we should try to trade down I think. The next five players (Stenberg, Reid, Verhoeff, Malhotra, and Carels) seem to have a lot going for them as top of the lineup potentials, maybe can snag an extra pick

Watch Rutherford fire Alvin for the shit show the team has become. Kyper reporting Alvin doesn't expect to survive Press box debacle is gaining media attention and Freidland reporting Beggs could be back in. Who is Beggs? Beggs is the Daily Hive reporter who was kicked out of the arena mid-game on ...
