Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Tried watching the Erie/Guelph game on tv tonight, shit was that painful. I swear Gaunce moves his feet less than Kassian does. He's constantly gliding at zero miles an our and seems very timid in battling for pucks. I hope this was an off game for him. Fox did nothing for me as well. Do we really ...

Yak+2 unknowns is way too much for Ekblad. Yak+ flipping picks this year should do it if Florida likes the Yak. I don't think many teams "like the Yak" right now. Sure he's young, and he's got speed, but he's done nothing with it. 24 points in 63 games is brutal. RNH, Eberle, and Hall, all put up w...

They hated BB when he was a Canuck. They hated BB when he was a Leaf. They now are in love with him. I never liked him in Vancouver, thought he was a blustering fool Thought he was perfect in Toronto. Hog town, hog head... Natural fit Hate turned to loathe over his petty ass defamation suit... He h...

What are the chances that Edmonton will trade up to get Ekblad? They desperately need blueliners in that system, and I can foresee them offering up their 3rd overall + Yakupov + 1st (2016) to get that. I really don't see the Oilers drafting another forward at this juncture.....I mean, as far as fra...

RD's top 6 mock draft Florida - Ekblad Buffalo - Reinhart Edmonton - Draisaitl Calgary - Bennett Islanders - Dal Colle Vancouver - Ritchie What are the chances that Edmonton will trade up to get Ekblad?

I thought I read in THN that Draisaitl has gotten comparison's to Joe Thornton, and that he's a LW but also plays C.....if this is true, then he should be the top choice. He's European, but he's playing in the Dub, so he's no stranger to the North American game, and puts up crazy numbers in the defe...

Hmm...could he repeat history and move up to secure the other brother??

Highly doubtful.....he has no real bargaining chips.

I fail to see how attaining a lower draft slot than Toronto...but both remaining in the sewer of the NHL offers any kind of bragging rights. ...meanwhile, in other news: the Bruins have not self destructed, rid themselves of their Conn Smythe winning goaltender and are still at the top & competing ...

I like the style of Virtranen, but not necessarily his stats. He's not exactly putting up numbers at the WHL level that scream scoring winger. But if he's got speed, and at 6'1" 213lbs he would be tough to knock off the puck.

Just please, please, please, NO MORE SWEDES!

I think it has more to do with the fact that Rinne returns to the lineup tomorrow.....

The 9 goals probably just made it easier to decide between backups.

Looks like Dan Giardi will be staying in New York.

6 years for $33M.

RD has been right about quite a bit actually... He's been calling out Gillis for years and only now is everyone catching up...including myself. If you go and look back, most of the moves that Gillis has made RD has actually been pretty OK on at the time. I'm not Doc, so I'm not going to go dig them...

You DO realize that out of every 20 posts RD makes, only 1 or 2 are actually legitimate? Every other post is a troll post of some sort. If you don't like the guy, ignore him. Period. RD is a huge Canucks fan. He's clearly just messing with guys like you. I've also never seen him attack someone in a...

If your dad had shot you into a kleenex instead of your mom's gash, this board would be a much quieter place.

Has anyone been watching House of Cards? Just finished Season 2 last night. Great stuff. We just started House of Cards last week and it is awesome. We are already 7 episodes in and are hooked. That show is in a class with few others. Hooks you with the first episode and never lets you off. Some sh...
