Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

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.

How about looking at some key performance indicators instead of just hurling insults? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FUVi0R-XEAIbVkB.png:large How many of those were public sector jobs vs private? Trudeau’s job creation numbers are astounding, but they are primarily non-revenue generating government p...

First fucking post I read.

Foe.

Fuck, watching Florida it stings to see Forsling and Tkachuk playing so well. Teams can be turned around quickly. Zito has done a great job in FLA. And OEL looks fantastic!! He’s fit in nicely there!!! I’m curious as to why Chicago gave up on Forsling??? Must sting for Blackhawk fans! Calgary sure ...

To thoughts from different sides of the Mikheyev conversation….. If the Canucks dump Mikheyev then that salary goes elsewhere. Likely a free agent because we don’t have enough depth in the cupboard pushing for that spot. So, why would any team want this player when they could simply sign the free ag...

To be fair, the effective players you listed are top 6 F and top 4 D. So you would expect that. Miller Boeser Garland Joshua Hughes Myers Lindholm Zadorov And the ineffective players are mostly bottom 6 and bottom D pairing. So you wouldn't expect them to be potting a lot of goals (only PDG and Sut...

Liked big Zed but it’d be a mistake to think he will consistently play like he did in the playoffs. He’s a very good third pairing asshole. But you can’t pay him the 6x6 he is asking. Dillon from the Jets on a short deal at 3.5m will bring nearly just as much. Or bring Chatfield back to Vancouver. ...

Buying him out is not an option so how do they move him?

Maybe JR hired these female AGM’s to go and “convince” other GM’s to discount their asks.

Dhali is saying that Hronek is asking for $8 mil per? I know he is RD and 'in demand' but that is a lot. Dhali is also saying he is 'firm on his price.' Yeah. Then he’s gone. I’ve been LOL’ing at the people getting him re-signed here for $7M or less. He rejected $7M months ago…..he has arbitration ...
