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 ...

I am hoping for some machinations that result in multiple good young players.

Something fun like Ruck twins AND Viggo AND high scoring D, with Jake DeBrusk peddled off also

yup, everything they've handled since they've got here has pretty much turned to shit. Why should this draft be any different? Don't understand ownerships strategy on keeping them around. This management group answers to one of the least liked names in Vancouver business. A certain amount of ...

I want more, Picker.

A future where goodness can happen.

Where the cruel ghost of maki changes his mind

I need to believe

Lowkey blame Tocchet for both the rise and the fall. A structure coach has his effects from his own blue line in but he just didn’t know how to coach offense except never turn it over at the other blue. This means no dangles or lateral movement. Players who take odd angles to the net like Podkolzin a ...

TCISO with the statement that matters.

The fun starts now. Losing is now constructive. Trades are for future excellence. We can watch a team get better.

The question would be how much we want to see that

The PO Joseph Era is how this time shall be known.

I’d love to read (or write) an all-access book on the Nucks. What is really going on?

Petterson is sour and hostile to the media. Do you suppose he’s different to his teammates?

I’ve never heard of a star player getting married and inviting not a single teammate

Is it wrong to want to see McDavid get a cup in Canada?

I mean…yes, obviously.

But SO wrong…?

It’s not like I’m rooting for Calgary ffs!

Geeeeeeeezzzzzz

Garland. I like the dude but he’s snakebit here. Is from the Boston area, might enjoy it. I kinda want Myers to stay here or at least in Canada. If he has medical needs it might be better under our health care and if he’s in say Edmonton the family might not have to move too far or even at all. And I ...

Brisbois in the Canucks transaction reports for years and years without really making an impact at the NHL level reminds me of the decade, it seemed like, where there would be a biannual mention of Leif Rohlin. A perfect Vancouver name. Imagine the fun Shorty could have had announcing Leif Rohlin ...

Thanks Carl. I lurk here a lot!

It’s a great hockey community but sometimes it feels like I am coming in and hearing a long running family argument between two angry uncles who have so much history that it’s hard to know what’s going on, better to just sidle out the door before you get punched

Don, you are one of the great posters and I respect that. However I do see you as an advocate of manning up and pushing through the nagging stuff - you quoted Jim Robson on Trevor Linden. And that mention made me reflect on how Linden was an elite skater in his youth and how painful it was to watch ...
