Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Mark Fistric signed a 3 year extension with the Ducks for relative cheap contract. The former Giant captain would of been a good guy to have around to give our backend more size and grit.

Kadri has his side of the story with his battle with Sid though.

I'm quite enjoying the 24/7 HBO series leading up to the Wings/leaves Winter Classic. They were showing it on SportsNet. It gets into the personal lives of the players, shows some things that happens on the ice during games, goes inside the dressing room and shows what coaches say during practice an...

The Leaf fans who like his new contract are of the koolaid-drinking variety. Todd, why do YOU slurp down Leaf koolaid and refuse to even take a sniff of Canuck koolaid? What's your game man. :hmmm: It's simple, it's cuz your assumption that I am a Leaf's fan is false. I really care don't what the L...

a) You've already admitted to being a Leaf-lover. b) You said you'd gladly pay $2.5m for 5 extra pounds of muscle (umm salary-cap NHL, Todd). :wink: c) You have long had the reputation of being a bed-wetting “Canuck-hater” in these parts. d) You're Phaneufishly _ _ _ _ _ _ and your father was a bit...

I'll give u that, but nearly knocking off the big bad Bs in the first round last year was impressive . Diane played a big role in that leaves team. Yup, Pylon Diane played a HUGE role in... the most epic collapse in NHL history!! :lol: Minus 6 in the series, MINUS 2 in Game 7. Yes, the leaves fucke...

I'm not saying the leaves are a Cup contender, but they're going to make some noise in the next few years. They're a darkhorse team, mark my words. Thanks for coming out of the closet Todd!! I've long-suspected you were a Leaf-loving son of a bitch... Oh fuck ya, ole Todd is always going on about h...

A lot of players wouldn't want a full-of-himself mistake-prone overrated-to-the-tune-of-$7m on their team ... Todd. A lot of players realize bang-for-your-buck kinda players are beneficial. I'll disagree with u there. Phaneuf is kind of like having Raffi Torres, he's a bit of a pig/jerk, but they'r...

I hope you're saying that Phanuef's skills are not fully utilized because he doesn't have the brain to utilize them. With him it is NOT coaching, it's all upstairs. The guy is probably one of the most athletically gifted guys in the league. Maybe, IT IS the coaching. It just depends what u have on ...

Phaneuf is probably not the best skater ? He's a better skater than Weber and Chara, and probably a couple of other Olympic locks and hopefuls. One of his strength's is how good he is on his feet. If not for his skating ability he'd probably be a third pairing guy because he would never be able to ...

I dunno Doc, you're argument and evidence is pretty weak...while I agree the Princess is overvalued your point of reference is January 2012 (Or October, for that matter)...flash forward I don't think Ovi & him are playing as bad as they were back then... Doc is too busy reading articles that are ov...

Not a bad signing me thinks. You thinks does you? :roll: *LOL* We just had this discussion on another thread. http://www.canuckscorner.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10079&start=285 For all his flaws he (Dion) is probably the most appealing defenseman headed into free agency: young, durable, physic...

Not a bad signing me thinks. I thought he'd get $5.5-$6M, some ppl thought he'd getz $8M+ in the openz marketz. He signz right in middle @ $7M, bit of a hometown discount I guess.

I like those posters too, don't see them around very much. Hopefully when the season starts.

I am happy for Cheezeburgler Nonis, well deserved.
