Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Well, that was ugly. I see we still know how to make average goalies look amazing, and average shooters look like stars. 😡 Juolevi - comfortable, steady Pouliot - was a mess Gaudette good after a while, took a while to get going.. may need better lineup around him in order to shine? Leipsic won’t ge...

I'm not sure the Sedins will want to be there on opening night. They'll probably prefer to show up once in a while at a random mid-week game.

Nice, Per. We'll take 50.

The US defense lobby groups would have a fit.

That sounds about right...

...but more importantly, is it just me, or is Wee Todd turning a new leaf? In a 196 word post he managed to use actual words for all but four. He also used full names for players at least six times. Do you have a new girlfriend from the English department, Todd?

I recall Linden was brought in because it was felt Benning on his own was a little dangerous. Has Elmer gained enough experience to be given the helm unassisted?

I need some of that...

Has anybody tried it?

The war is fine.... except when it isn't.

We need more wars of the length of your garden variety January Uprising or Crimean War, and less horribly long conflicts like Vietnam, or the Hundred Years war.

Hey Corn...

Any chance we could just obliterate this thread? It's reached an all new level of tiresome. Don't just lock it. Kill it.

Let's go Petr Nedved! Um.... Let's go Joe Sakic? Full credit to Modric and company - from about minute 40 on, Croatia were the much better team. England, however, had a solid tournament and there's no under-achieving to complain about. In fact, there should be continued optimism, as it's a young gr...

... get that paid shill bullshit out of here.

Who's the shill again? Maybe I've lost the plot.

I'm not in Vancouver that often, but there are 2 pizza places that I go out of my way to get to whenever I can: Zachary's on Oak at about 10th, and Lombardo's on Commercial at 1st in the little mall on the NW corner. Neither place is inexpensive, but the crust, cheese and toppings are excellent. The...

They'll get real competitive, real quick.

I think there's good reason to believe this. The rapid rise of recent winners Pittsburgh, Chicago, and LA all followed this trajectory.

Congrats Per! Sweden have played well and with enthusiasm. Germany were a bit flat. No big loss having them out, in my opinion, and I’m a Germany fan. Hats off to Costa Rica drawing the Swiss to give Concacaf a shred of dignity on the way out. Whitecap Kendall Waston with a nice header goal. 😎 So Pe...

It would be very NBA-like. Spend big bucks on another superstar and go win a championship. Why not, really? Blow it up afterwards.

At the time I found this to be hilarious https://canucksarmy.com/2014/05/20/we-think-the-vancouver-canucks-may-have-a-scouting-problem/ Thanks for that, Bingo. I didn't see this on its original published date, but wow. Just wow. 4000 more games played, 950 more goals.... It will be interesting to u...
