Yeahno, he got hit with a puck a few days prior.

He did however receive sore knuckles from pounding the fuck outta Farnham...

And yet dropyourgloves.com saw it very differently than you. You do use them frequently as a reference when talking about pugilists

If the refs wouldn’t have stepped in Jake woulda destroyed him, Farnham was being ragdolled, I don’t doubt he’s a much better fighter now.

Sure... and Button basically said Juolevi is better than Tkachuk as well. :lol:

Why should we care if Farnham is a better fighter? He should be. It's not like he was tearing up the minor leagues as a scorer.

The fact is, Jake stepped up and handled it well. Unlike rats like Tkachuk and Marchand who hides and turtles or only starts chucking when they're facing non-fighters who don't want to fight.

Fuck, even Burrows stepped up and fought when he had to. Tkachuk should be ashamed when even his little bro is willing to drop 'em and go when challenged.

Dad must be embarrassed by his elder son's (in)actions.

Top line wingers are easy to get in the draft, they’re easy to predict and peak and decline earlier than dmen, we’re more than likely to get one this year, top end d talent is a crap shoot if there is a draft that has dmen near the top it’s right to take a chance on them because they’re impossible to acquire. I’m not saying joulevi was the right pick, maybe sergachev or mcavoy would have been better (time will tell), but tkachuk was definitely not the right pick for this team, we need dmen. Luckily this draft you’ll get your wish for another top 6 winger seeing as I don’t even know if there is a dman in the top 10 other than Bowen.

Do all wingers peak and decline earlier than D men or just top line wingers? So if there is a draft that has d men near the top just take them regardless ?? Like Erik Gudbranson or Cam Barker?

I can smell your yap though my phone. You keep talking out of your ass and we all get to smell that shit breath

This team doesn’t or didn’t just need d men. They need talent at every skating position

Blob, after last night’s decisive win over the schite Flyers and all their great “wingers” and their great “D-men” are you still drafting Patrick ahead of Pettersson? Konecny ahead of Boeser?

Decisive win over a garbage team.
When was I drafting Patrick? As far as I know Vancouver never had the opportunity to do so. Sure I had Konecny ahead of Boeser and also Tkachuk and half dozen guys ahead of Olaf.

Look at the two guys you constantly spray about drafted with our two second round picks in 2017. Then look at the two d men taken directly after both of them. Kinda makes a guys stomach sick. Hague and Brook would look mighty good alongside Woo and Hughes

Let’s try to stay on topic - How you liking Boeser and Pettersson? Glad they are Canucks?
