That guy is an idiot

Getting ready to go down the channel for a few days, to help out my community with some annual fishing and projects. Looking forward to it.

Dare I go off hockey, but what are you fishing?

Trading Hughes is my favourite as well. 50 years of complaining the Canucks have never drafted a guy like Hughes ---> 7 years after drafting him "Well we better move him while he can fetch a haul"

Truly the most donkey position, zero sense.

Pretty big game tonight...

Enjoy yourself

I will be assisting on eulachon

1st time, so really looking forward to it.

Now is the time for a repeat performance like vs WPG but against the Blues.

What is this team made of?

Guess we will see.

4-2 Nucks.

In terms of adding in the off season (top 6)

Obviously, big ticket guys that could actually move the needle are Marner & Ehlers?

Then there's a bunch of older, somewhat past-their-prime guys that really can't be relied on to take on such a heavy burden like Duchene, Tavares, Benn, Girioux, Hall, Gourde, Granlund, Bennett, Kane.

Then tertiary guys that would be more complementary pieces: Fabbri, Mantha, Tanev, Iafallo, Roslovic, Driun, Appleton, Geekie, Olefsson - feel like we got enough of these kinda guys.

Would it be possible to snag a young RFA by Offer Sheet? With the cap going up significantly, that limits the amount of teams to target.

Lowest Projected cap space 26' = Dallas(5mil), Colorado(8mil), St.Louis(9mil), Tampa(9mil), Vegas(10mil), NYR(10mil) on (11mil) Van (13mil)

guys like Bourque, Holtz, Cuylle - SLIM PICKINS

Bennett is past his prime?!

Never been, sounds fun!

Bennett is past his prime?!
- neem55

11 Seasons - 49 points is his best ever. I'm not sure 'prime' and 'Bennett' are 2 words that even exist.

Check out his injury history - soon to be 29yrs - you sure you wanna place that bet?

Wow how much do we miss Neil Peart.

Bullish on Marner who plays all situations. Play drivers are a priority.

Marner had ONE decent playoff year I wouldn't take that on averages. He disappears most PO's at the most inopportune times. Unless that changes...pass.

Pass? Who do you go after that is the end all be all key piece?

Stars/Panthers final since October.

There isn't one. Why expend all that cash on one player that can't get it done in the PO's? Maybe trying winning by committee and bring in two players for the same money like Ehlers and Bennett. Boeser is likely gone so there will be options.

As I see it we have only 1 top 6 C & nothing in the system & no UFA C’s unless Tavares has more in the tank.

Ehlers is a play driver but gets injured a lot also. 29yr old & small & pricey. No thx

I like Bennett but he’s best suited as a 3C not a top 6 playmaker.

Summary: there is no fix for a top 6 C so I rather pay for an elite play driver & playmaker vs paying too much for 2 older players wanting their last big contract. Wouldn’t age well.

There is ample cap to go for a big fish like Marner if he would sign here. Imo he won’t so resign Boeser & not budge on the dollar. 5/8m or 6/7.5m

A couple of you, and you know who you are, need to look at the D pairings.

Then suck it.
