Roger's Class B up 3.15% on the day.

I miss having more AM radio stations (I don't plan my trips well enough to load podcasts). Investors, apparently, will not.

If Verbeek loses Carlsson to offer sheet, what kind of pressure will he be under to get the ship back on track? He’ll have a boatload of 1sts and Pettersson would come in way cheaper than $18 million. West Coast team. Lots of the kind of trade capital that RJ would want. Cheaper alternative to C ...

Thanks for clarifying.

When an NFL team hires a head coach, they are more-or-less committing to build a roster suitable to playing that coach's system. Players will get drafted and traded on the basis of how well they fit what the organization is trying to do on offence and defence. The biggest difference between NFL and ...

Did I say I see Rossi as not a part of the team when the corner is turned? You did not. Which leads to the query are you putting words in my mouth RG, not reading what I out down or an I just shitty at demonstrating intent on the written page? What I said is ... I quoted the specific passage that ...

he could be one of those guys until Caleb Cootes et al come along. A perfect bridge for our future 2 & 3Cs. And hopefully he continues to progress to net us a sweet return when the others are ready in 2/3 yrs. So, even the upbeat versions of Rossi's potential don't see him as part of the core when ...

This front office is heavily betting on elite length, processing speed, and defensive structure, trusting their development staff to refine the technical skating.” Skating is definitely way easier to coach than length and processing speed. As a drafting strategy, it makes sense -- especially for a n ...

This touches on my favourite hockey topic: the team composition that gives the best chance to win a championship. ...I figured this could be the sort of bullsit that could drive discussion on a hockey message board... Or, you know, not. So I will explore a theory about why not. When an NFL team ...

..and then they do that with Ivchenko. That's a reach at best. Taking a goalie in the 2nd/3rd rounds makes a lot of sense. If the Canucks are looking to build the kind of team I suspect they might be, then I agree that it makes sense for them to roll the dice on a goalie in this part of the draft ...

Now that I have had the night to sleep on it, I don’t hate the Maholtra pick, I just worry how the toxic local media can turn everything sideways. Having 2 potential 2Cs in the Canucks system is great to have. The more I read about the Novotny, the more I love that pick. I don’t think they did poo ...

I know most of us would luv to have an ellite franchase forward and a top calibre D-man, but the Canes proved that u don't really need em. U mainly need solid depth in every position. This touches on my favourite hockey topic: the team composition that gives the best chance to win a championship ...

I am vicariously happy that you came away from this draft with something to be excited about.

Anybody have strong feelings about Novotny at #24 ?

They're saving him for a '27 pick.

Cheering for the Canucks builds mental fortitude.

Failing that, your own life looks like way less of a radioactive tire fire by comparison.
