Re: 2025 Canucks Off-season

Guess we can stop talking about Arvidsson and start talking about Evander Kane - he's now a Nuck. I can't stand the dude, he's one of the dumbest players in the league, a complete ass in the room and takes more stupid penalties than anyone. The team definitely needs grit but I would have taken just ...

Re: Summer Prediction Thread

Pettersson gets traded to Buffalo for Noris plus. Demko gets extended. Silovs gets traded. Canucks trade for Rossi. Garland gets traded. Suter gets re-signed Canucks go hard after Ehlers. Interesting, and not too far off what I'm guessing: 1) Petey gets traded - I still think much of what we're ...

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas

I see people are smoking rock in this thread. Just get Drai for Demko and scraps. Can we throw in the rights to Behn Wilson and a 3rd rounder in 2028. Maybe some fireworks and smoked salmon. Blob, what is your guess about the assets we get back for whichever goalie we trade this summer? Not Blob ...

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas

That has to be a consideration for management when you're committing the next 7 years to a player. They did consider it. And signed him. And JT. This is definitely on Mgmt., they screwed the pooch on this one big time. I honestly think it should have cost them their jobs, if they can't solve this ...

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas

I agree with UDL on this one - best thing for Van is if Petey returns to a 85-90 point pivot who plays lights out in his own zone for Van. - Mëds will finally go back to posting about something else - Van will have a 1st line C - Likely make the playoffs, if they shore up the 2C spot. - Quinn will ...

Re: 2025 NHL Draft Class

I usually love the draft but have paid very little attention to it this year given the team will almost certainly be trading their 1st rounder, and perhaps even more after that. I guess when you've only picked 3 times out of your last 10 1st and 2nd rounders you really don't care about drafting! If ...

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas

Apparently Petey flew in from Sweden for a game of golf and some dinners with Foote, Demko and Huggy. At the coaches request. Sounds like an uncoachable player to me......... Sounds like someone who doesn't want to get traded to Buffalo to me............... As the guy who heard the uncoachable ...

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas

But really, we should dismiss rumoured opinion of tenured NHL’ers because hey, rikster knows best. FYP Not trying to call Diehard out or anything, but I'd suggest a bit of calm here - as suddenly the owners are talking to the friend of a GDHTMB poster sounds a lot like Dark Helmet's relationship to ...

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas

Keep hearing the Sabres as a destination for Pettersson. Rumours they are shopping Tuch - RW - (UFA 2026), Peterka - RW - (RFA), Byram (RFA) and Power ($8.35 million per). Doesn’t necessarily solve the centre ice with any of them. Yep Sabres make a lot of sense - Petey is good buddies with Dahlin a ...

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas

Hi All, been traveling lots lately for work but back now. I don't pretend to be an insider but I've heard a few things recently from people who are in the know: - Canucks want to and are trying to trade Petey this summer. The Sedin twins referred to him as 'uncoachable' and management doesn't ...

Re: Re-booted SKYO approved pipe dreams and trade ideas

Necas for Petey is still a real possibility I think so too - no idea who they might want back in a Petey trade but Necas might make sense as part of it. They’d still need at least one but most likely two centres, so maybe they re-sign Suter as one of them and get another in trade. The other guy I’m ...

Hi All, been traveling lots lately for work but back now. I don't pretend to be an insider but I've heard a few things recently from people who are in the know: - Marner definitely wants to go to Vegas and it sounds like there's mutual interest from his side. Obviously this would mean that they have ...

Re: The Petey Predicament

There are many rumours out there now that he is dealing with a nagging knee problem. He has been seen wearing a brace off ice and at practice perhaps as a rehab measure but no confirmation he is wearing one in games. So, not to pile on the excuses, but perhaps he does have a bad knee that he needs ...

Re: The Petey Predicament

This situation is next to impossible to read without additional info - is he injured, and if so how badly? If he's not injured is he just not in shape? What's his motivation? Normally an elite athlete would spend all their time trying to prove everyone wrong if they had a second half and playoffs ...
