The Swedish rookies are vulnerable together.

Sure glad I didn't. A nice dinner, with some Sartori Harvest, finishing up with a great bottle of the 2018 Niche Wine Co. Foch.

That makes it hard to be angry at getting an inner city beat down by a 3rd rate group of vapid, feckless Flames.
Good call JPP.

I know Cuz has called for Willander to be sent down, but I don't see how they have much to learn in the A.

Let them develop their games here. They're still better than options we're scratching.

The fans should boo them off the ice.

Injuries be damned. The Flames are a fucking joke of a roster and they are making us look like the league's court jester.

Nice Hughes.

Boeser has really struggled in this game.

Lankinen is poop.

It sure is peculiar how this team just keeps getting worse under this management team.

I wonder which shorty Dude dislikes more?

In all seriousness, JR cannot be so blithe about the Hughes situation. Do whatever you have to keep him.

Burn it all down. Tie FA up and stick a gun in his mouth. Whatever.

Swill from the fuckin' Tank-ard!

Those tankards must be flying off the shelf in the Canucks merch store.

What a Christmas gift that is.

How much of him will there be left to keep? Pushing 30 mins a night, playing with a lot of bumps / bruises.

A long career doesn’t seem like a foregone conclusion with this player.

Weird how Van looks like the team played into OT last night. So little skating effort tonight.
