Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

you're telling me Utah couldn't come up with a name between now and next season puck drop?

maybe they also agree that their short list of names is shit

I've advocated for the trade Demko before, before last season started. But after the season they had they can't trade him now. They are trying to build a team that can compete every year. I'm sorry, as much as I liked what Silovs accomplished he wasn't a NHL starter comparable. He was a decent back...

There's a fake post about this out there.. I assume that's what we are referring to here?

How do they fuck up the name so bad?

Utah narrowed down the list to 6 names: https://twitter.com/reporterchris/status/1798747898110415348?s=61&t=b-dXvvGaOpWOypyDSQEYrQ Mountaineers didn't make it. :( None of those names sound very good IMO. not great for marketing either. and jfc don't call it HC, this isn't the league for that.

Willander is our only RD with a potential of 1st pairing. We have no one else. Mcward... very maybe. I like Willander but he's shown nothing to think he's a shoe in to be a #2 D and just needs some time.. we all penciled in Podz in our top 6 for years and that hasn't remotely panned out, as one exam...

I was referring to Megs first post he was quoting from some website having Lindholm at 6.7mil x 5 years, not the Athletic one

again not that I think he'll go for that..

Lindhholm will not get less than $7 million per year. I could see a team forking $8 million per year with term for him. If you’re a team with pour centre depth with lots of cap room would you not? I would, but centre ice isn’t our problem and cap is. Yup. Hey, I wasn't saying I thought he'd get 6.7...

Lindholm @ 6.7 x 5 - sign me up!

but if it's the 7.9 x 7 from the Athletic.. no thanks

We had a lot of our bottom 9 forwards punching above their weight this year too at least at the start of the year, giving us a big points cushion.. some will leave and others will likely not be as great.. I expect unless we make some major trade that changes everything, we are looking more at being ...

Necas would be great on our team but he'd be an 8+mil player. how would we fit that in? I think it was Canucksarmy who had on a Hurricanes reporter who said they wouldn't trade Necas for Hronek.. They like Necas but can't afford him.. why would they trade for another RFA who's about to get paid? Ide...

The New York Islanders have acquired a first-round pick (#20) and two second-round picks (#54 and #61) in the 2024 NHL Draft from the Chicago Blackhawks, in exchange for the team’s first-round pick (#18) and second-round pick (#50). Interesting this one baffled me. what possible reason did they hav...

Guess we'll have to agree to disagree Hronek with his arms crossed and head down, angry face, before the question is even asked. You can practically see the steam coming out of his ears. His answer is snarky and hostile before Patterson doubles down. Patterson is a dick always but acting like Hronek...

What about Hronek to the Crackpipes for Adam Larsson and Brandon Tanev? Allows the team to cut Joshua loose. Francis obviously has a relationship with JR. Yes Tanev isn’t as big as Dakota, but he is an elite defensive player and can pk. Replace Dakota’s size throughout the lineup. You can likely ex...
