Reminds me of Hedican in that he has a lot of tools, but didn’t put it all together in Vancouver and got a lot of criticism. I remember he always got criticized in Vancouver for not having a tool box. On other clubs he developed into a very effective defensemen. I think Mancini will have a long NHL c ...

My bad - Silovs second star of the week was a couple weeks ago, not this week.
Doesn’t change my opinion though.

This weeks three stars are Kucherov, Forsberg and Caufield.

When their “starter” clearly earned the nickname “Tankinen” you have to question management’s judgement. At the time Lankinen’s contract was signed some of us said it was a mistake, as was it a mistake to not keep Silovs and run with three goalies to start the season. It all falls on management and t ...

Silovs - NHL second star of the week…a little more justification for management team replacement (as if there isn’t enough already)!

Flames getting relatively hot and getting those meaningless garbage time points - that’s behaviour I typically expect of the Canucks.
Flames are now tied for second last with Rags and Blackhawks at 65 points.
Canucks have 50.
Canucks magic number down to 12 points (or six regulation loses)

Magic number for last place is down to 14 points (or 7 regulation loses/wins).
Well done!

Anaheim is either going to have some top level GMing with contracts (as a Canuck fan, I don't know what that looks like), or they are expected to be about $10 mil over the cap. MMac ($7mil) for Raty, Mancini and 2 2nds solves their problem, and fills another hole for us. Personally, I’d stick with M ...

If they get a top two pick they should win the Stanley Cup next season. I’ve been looking at the depth chart and there is absolutely nothing to criticize: McStenKennaberg Pettersson DeBrusk Ohgren Rossi Boeser O’Connor Chytil Karlsson Sasson Blueger Hoglander Raty Abbotsford: Baines Cootes Lek ...

Magic number 16 points (or 8 regulation loses/wins).

Magic number down to 18 points, or 9 regulation wins/loses.
Well done Corn!

Flames - Games 68 Points 61
Canucks - Games 67 Points 50

Canucks maximum points 50 + (15 games x 2 points) = 80 points
Flames hold tiebreaker.
Canucks magic number is 20 points.
Goal achieved by any combination of 10 regulation loses by the Canucks, or 10 wins by the Flames.

5-3 Lightning.
