I have two cats. Love them...well one of them, the other one is kinda crazy...can't trust him. Very social though, but something is a bit off, must be the Siamese in him.

With the hype and eventual disappointment of all Canuck draft picks for the past decade, can you really blame people jumping the gun on the bust label?

Bandwagon jumpers know squat.
Yes i can blame them

28 and a ginger!

So when is the mainstream media going to write the year end comparison of Linden to shanahan? There was all this press on the 2 hirings at the start.

How this guy gets so much management respect is beyond me. He wasn't even good in his role at the NhL, and now he totally dogged a season.

Lack starts.

Absolutely nobody outside of Vancity is picking the Nucks to win this round. Personally I think its hate over logic, but who knows.

Yup, I've seen about 80% of people picking Calgary.

Well the "experts" have you guys so take it for what that is... Vegas odds are Nucks.
Do the Jets beat the Ducks?

It's odd. Calgary is both the underdog (slightly) and picked by the vast majority of pundits to win. And they could. But it's not like the Canucks are a deeply flawed team that lucked its way into the post season. They played damn good and consistent hockey all season long.

The Flames only finished one point behind the Canucks, their first line of Monahan Hudler & Gaudreau are more offensively talented and much quicker than Sedin Sedin Burrows. That said our depth may play into evening that out?

Flames defense is better than ours and goaltending is pretty much a wash...although Hiller has a ton more experience than Lack. Gonna be a close close series!!

I'm an animal guy. Like everything. Even birds. Spent a good portion of my life working for the SPCA. I always find it funny when people argue over which is best; dogs or cats.

Two completely different companion animals.

Speaking of cats, any way to get them to stop chewing on cords? We've gone through about 6 cellphone chargers and they have both started chewing in electrical cords. We bought a spray, but they don't care. Both cats are indoors and the wife is 100% against them being outdoor cats.

Van should look at going after Brayden Schenn. At what cost though? 199 hits, 47 points last season.

Spray them with a water bottle when or if you catch them doing it...our (my wife's) cat used to scratch on the couch, sprayed her with the water bottle for a few weeks and she stopped, forever.

Tell that to the a$$hat who said we didn't deserve to make the playoffs a month ago because of the way we have played.

I just think Vans experience will be deciding factor

This core has been through a lot together. The youth and new blood combined with our core will fuel a fire under them that will consume a the Flames and they will ride it to a Stanley cup win.

Yes spraying cats with water while they chew electrical chords often turns out well

Make a video of it and put it on YouTube.a bunch of them until they stop one way or the other....

I watched Dorsett annoy and shut down Crosby last POs. I hope he can do the same to Monahan.

I think once you get by the top lines we have a small advantage

Well read that philly is disappointed in how he is progressing which for a second line LW is fine with me. For the right price. Adds some scoring and a more physical element.
