Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

drove through from Berta last night and this morning to the ferry and holy fucking balls...why the fuck is the #1 only 2 lanes each way still to just before 200??? Topper they've turned your bog into berry fields and garbage piles The new hwy 17 is fantastic except for where you get off at 176. Why...

The fan love for Dakota no different than the usual Van Fan love of the underdog except in this rarest of cases, the subject is over 5"4" tall. Notice how the other fan fave underdog, CoHog, withered and died come playoffs. Speaking of TO, note their fans are calling on $3mil for Knies while Van Fa...

Petey looked injured to me, he didn’t look the same, his skating was off and he looked weak. He’s an excellent player and will return to form. The tendinitis Chef had lasted months was brutal but I managed to work through it but still brutal so I don’t get why some downplay its effects, especially ...

Lol yes Daniel really stood up to Marchand. Fuck me. I meant with the media..... ...fuck me back at ya. Media aside Donny….. By the time they were in their mid-late 20’s, the Sedins were not getting pushed over by every defenseman who skated by them. They were sturdy in their feet. Fleet of foot? N...

They still had them in their 30’s. Pettersson’s stance and stride looks the same as the Sedins, he’s just skinny and faster.

@ Weibo Ludwig…..And you were dead wrong about Pettersson being a powerplay merchant. You make some good points, then shit your filthy linen gown. I don’t like Peter’s skating style either but it’s mostly worked till now. I was a bit of an ankle skater. Look at Matt Tkachuk, not a real pretty strid...

$11.6 million scooter boy is a whiny little fuck. Probably sprouts a man bun in the off season. Refuses to take responsibility for his dismal play. This is the guy in the line up with no accountability. Watch him skate, he's knock kneed. Instead of striding from the hips, he strides from the knees....

certain individual's hatred towards a single player has gotten out of hands time to activate the mute Are you so afraid that he’s not everything we hoped he would be that you read critique as assessment? It’s not hate to point out very obvious things. It’s not hate when detractors want to be wrong ...

Possibly.

But if as Mëds said... rest etc. Why not rest Petey for a few weeks/month then? Seems strange Maybe EP40 didn't want to sit out, and nobody was going to force him? Which says he was, at that point, focused on individual stats for the sake of negotiations in contract year. Or That he’s un-coachable ...

Knee tendinitis makes complete sense. His skating lacked pop and so did his shot. I expect to see a better player in October. Yes. It does. But you sit a guy for 2 weeks and let that heal. Then another week to work it back in in practice. He misses 10 games and is healthy for the playoffs. The team...

Tendinitis can be managed in the short term with drugs. Sure, it probably hurt, and sucked to go through - but with ice, drugs and a medical team managing it - it shouldn't have affected his performance that badly. Kind of was hoping it was something a bit more serious, FFS, my Mom used to play ten...

Elias Pettersson says he's been playing with a bad knee since January. So in January, it was pretty much confirmed we would be in the playoffs, and they didn't rest him..... This is both great and frustrating to hear. I stick by my thoughts from the other week that it was both a physical injury and...

The first question in addressing this issue is: what phase of the competitive cycle do you believe the Canucks to be in? Are they still building, or is the core Ready to Compete for the Cup and it's just a matter of finding the right support pieces and fitting them under the cap? It seems that mana...

Per doesn’t care about logic and real world happenings. Only what his charts and graphs show him.
