Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

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...

Is this ultra-bitter version of you going to wear off, Mick, or do we need to consider trading you for a new prospect?

Between Bouchard, Dobson and Boqvist who has the highest ceiling? McKeens: Boqvist. The young Swedish defender is absolutely electric, comparable in some ways to Quinn Hughes. Boqvist, who was only born in August of 2000 is also much younger than the other two you asked about, giving him more room ...

It's only the 10th OA, not Top-3... if it weren't such a deep draft, it wouldn't seem so tempting. Chiarelli may be purely fishing for a giant return, but how about 10 OA + Lucic for Tanev + Granlund? This would greatly shore up the Oilers' overall D and drop some salary to add to their FA search, w...

Noah Dobson
Liam Foudy

I'm still hoping for Vancouver to get back into consideration, but if not, Seattle's a great venue... and close by.

ISS Top 10 from June: 1 Dahlin, Rasmus LD 2 Svechnikov, Andrei RW/C 3 Zadina, Filip RW 4 Tkachuk, Brady C 5 Wahlstrom, Oliver C 6 Bouchard, Evan RD 7 Hughes, Quinn LD 8 Dobson, Noah RD 9 Boqvist, Adam LD 10 Veleno, Joseph C Boqvist seems to be falling. Any thoughts as to why? Meanwhile the NHL mock ...
