Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Geez - a lot of angry people out here.

Is the extended break getting to everyone? Vancouver's wonderful spring showers got y'all locked in?

Relax, we'll have hockey back next week (in theory), grab a cold one and chill.

...while also understanding none of their remaining UFA's with the exception of Edler fetching anything worthwhile. Oh I get that, too - Benning gets to look like the good guy by saying that none of the trades which weren't going to happen aren't going to happen (but he'll keep his lines open. ;) ).

How about some Cambodian Death Dog Metal for your Saturday evening? DOCH CKAE is a death dog metal band fully created by young doggish Khmer guys! DOCH CKAE believes in dogs and that the master of the dogs, the doggod, the great doggod, reigns on electric guitar, ruling down from the upper skullsky ...

“Given what our team and the individual players have gone through these last couple weeks, I don't expect us to be doing a whole lot at the deadline. But we still have a couple days before the deadline's here. We'll make calls and talk to other GMs to see if there's something out there that makes s...

Can I link a schedule too? Anyone else got the scoop on this?

Is it too early to lock this thread?

It will almost be worth watching TSN's TDD show to see them fill airtime. Maybe a drinking game could be devised?

We're still trying to get over Buddy Holly.

And 5th already mentioned 'the duke'.

Yeah - didn't see this one coming. I figured "Placeholder" Pearson would be gone at the end of the year.

So we're at 6 'postponed' games so far, and I only see 3 spots where they could stick games (the rest would have to be after our last scheduled game on May 8th). The last league games are scheduled for May 11. That would give us 2 more spots. So 'in theory', if they don't cancel any more games, we c...

I won't be banking on a partial refund of my NHL.tv package!

We've still played more games than Montreal or Boston... :oops: It's a mess, and it will be really interesting to see how this plays out. Not as much money involved as if there were seats being filled. Cancel the games and award 2 points to the opponents? Play the games and risk injury / illness?

Bang on.

I believe the proper term is: Entitled Millennial.

I'm sure our parents and grandparents said the same thing about us. "Damned kids don't wanna go down the coal shaft"

EVERY thread is the trade thread to Skyo!
If your happy getting 5th to 7th round picks for those guys, go ahead and trade them.

You would be lucky to find a buyer for 1 of them

And if we ever get back to playing this season, we'll need any healthy body we can find.

An old one I hadn't seen before.

^ Sounds like a right royal clusterfuck up there after doing a pretty good job at containing it last year. Thanks for the expanded explanation.

I guess lack of production in Canada is a big part of the problem?
