I've seen glimpses as to why this may not be the case for much longer

Someone told me that interracial anal with black women is still illegal in a few States.

Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and Kansas. Though an bumhole is an bumhole whether a man, woman, black, white, they still have laws that prevent you from (frank)ing it. They don't discriminate that way.

If these guys can stay healthy they have a legitimate shot at the Division.

Not with LA in the div or you know..the team that swept VAN

LA
SJ
VAN
and then a cluster (frank). ANA had a lucky season, but they're still the most likely candidate to win the wildcard spot

they're definitely not 1st, but you'd have to be a (rare) ignorant leaf fan to say that

You are twisting my words. I never said "blah blah blah noone's good enough", and I never said the "team sucks".

I expressed concerns about certain areas of the team and you're taking those concerns to the extreme—to the point where you're turning it into bashing.

It's about looking at things realistically and realizing that the best case scenario isn't always going to happen.

Kassian hasn't proven he can produce at a top6 pace fore more than 9 games.

I believe he will eventually, but until he does, I won't consider him one, and will continue to see that as a hole in the lineup.

Booth and Kesler have also both had injury issues for a few seasons. If one or both were to get injured again, that's another hole in the top6.

If you go read my original post, I also said no "proven 3C."

Richardson is a good bottom 6 player who played the majority of the time on the 4th line, and some spot duty on the 3rd.

He also played wing the majority of the time on LA.

So while I consider him a good 4C, I don't consider him a proven 3C.

This team isn't good enough to be above criticism...

Why bother? Everyone else gets what your saying

So you're saying LA swept the Canucks last regular season? you know the games that get you into the playoffs?

3-2 SO (Kings)
5-2 (Canucks)
1-0 (Canucks)

Both Anaheim and San Jose stand a better chance at beating up on the Canucks than the Kings in the regular season

Your blog is bad, and you should feel bad. Your list is bad, and your computer should feel bad for allowing such drivel to be written on it.

Richard Cloutier: Which NHL Team is the Most Interesting? Part 1
- Maxbone

Cloutier is the biggest homer around. The Canucks are easily the most interesting team in the NHL. Everyone loves talking about the Canucks, even those who claim they hate them. The Sedins last years of their contracts, Tortorella, Luongo's vindication, three possible Calder nominees in Horvat, Shinkaruk and Gaunce, the outdoor game... The list goes on and on. Nobody gives a rip about the two garbage teams in Alberta.

Now it makes sense why they put the beads around the neck at the Mardi Gras.

You forgot Jensen
- Fosco

I see Jensen as more of a Kesler-type player but who can score more. Plus eastern voters will likely want an OHL product to win so they'll go with Horvat and Gaunce. Shinkaruk is the most skilled of the bunch so he'll be tough to ignore.

Or they may vote for someone who plays more than 10 nhl games this year. ... Say mackinnon or drouin.

Some guy named connor macdavid will be in the same nhl rookie class as shinkaruk.

responding to a guy that says Jensen will be a higher scoring Kesler. We're in the psychic thread.

Well I fear Ducks and Sharks over Kings this year personally...Kings seem to do better in the post season since their coaching change a few years ago

Ducks had a lucky season. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't make the playoffs and PHX or (have to say because I'm a homer) EDM took the wildcard spot

yes, the eastern voters loved the Sarnia product and rookie leading scorer so much that he wasn't even top 3 in calder voting

- TheNugeIsHuge

depends how eakins works out, I fully believe they're getting closer to being the powerhouse that people have talked about for 2-3 years now...coaching is the key to that team...same with Phoenix...or should i say Arizona I think the Coyotes will do better than other years And when the ducks have a core of Perry/Getzlaf and young guys like Etem, Palmieri and Silfverberg, i'd say anything can happen there...I'm not saying they'll do as well as they did in the regular season last year, but I don't think they're just a fluke
