He quit on the Canucks. He was part of the leadership group yet had no control in the dressing room. He is a self entitled prima donna American asshole. He is a top Man in this league and was fun to watch. His skill level is above elite. But he quit on the Canucks and wanted out. Yet he was part of ...

I have no ill will towards Hughes. He is a great player, and was fun to watch, but he obviously gave up on the team and quit instead of trying to be the solution. He lost his chance to be one of the few that perseveres with the same club. He decided to give up on the opportunity to be in the same ...

A bit of AI assisted research shows that if the Canucks don’t maintain their current top lottery spot and drop to three, they can take over top spot in lottery futility since Detroit will not be in the lottery this year. We’re number one! We’re number one! “The following list quantifies the "lottery ...

Just noticed Shesterkin is having an awesome season - 40 games played and a .918 save percentage. Considering playoff-wise the Rags are dead and buried, the rest of the team must be just awful if they can’t win in front of that goaltending, JT leading with a minus 24. Canucks dodged a bullet getting ...

I don’t think it’s possible that Buffalo or Vancouver will ever win a cup.
They’re both cursed.
I’ll cheer for Buffalo because I’d like to see a miracle.

Let's turn the GDTs over to Cherry Picker from now on. He has blossomed into the bard of the Corner. :D Nope! To tell the truth, I’m a fraud. I didn’t want to have to admit this publicly, but recently, I’ve been wanting the team to win. :wow: I’m ashamed. I think one win and I’m done. I can hardly l ...

In my never-ending attempt at distraction to avoid the reality of the Canuck’s current plight, and to avoid any discussion of the players in the actual line-up, while still fulfilling my obligation to create a somewhat topical Game Day Thread, I present the socio-political-economic reasoning to c ...

https://www.tankathon.com/nhl/mock_draft The Tankathon mock draft has Liam Ruck going to Calgary right after the Canucks pick - I can see the flames doing that since they play junior in Alberta. If the Canucks want the Ruck twins, they probably need to take Liam with their #32 pick and his brother ...

Top 10 ways to break the Wayne Maki curse: 1. Promote the official removal of #11 as a jersey number option going forward. 2. Promote selling the team to a group of 11 Larscheiders. 3. Wear a number 11 Maki jersey - the more authentic and blood stained, the better. 4. Obviously burn anything ...

Finally the true story came out: Hughes, Miller, Pettersson, Lindholm, Demko, and Tocchet are huddled in the All-Star locker room. The vibe is electric—a rare, dangerous spark of Canuck optimism. "Look at us," Miller says, slapping a table so hard his "A" almost vibrates off. "The Pacific is ours. ...

I hope not
But you never know when I’ll listen to The Sound of Silence on loop for 24 hours straight again.

I was in Alberta yesterday when creating the thread.

Clearly I am qualified to be in Canuck Management.

My bad Megs.

While you’re there check out the Ruck twins, leading the WHL scores.
I figure either the Canucks or Flames will go for them with their multiple seconds.
