The best case scenario this year is for the bottom 7 to finish like this

Leafs
Columbus
Buffalo
Canucks
Flames
Ducks
Oilers

This way we make the playoffs and get a top 5 pick
- VANTEL

Umm... no we wouldn't. You don't get a top 5 if you make the playoffs. We would get 14th if we went out in the first round and would not be in the lotto, I'm not into that!

Where's the Sharks? I think you're wrong again

Agreed. If that pairing gets pushed down to a second tier, more of a shutdown role, I like it. Buff and a big draft would be huge.

I don't like Edler Tanev top pairing

He'd just get peanut butter on it.

Below us. I was thinking about them but forgot to write them.


Wait man , old age will hit you too

Edler had one of those "games" last night

I agree, sell of Vrbata, Hamhuis at trade deadline for whatever they can get, and play hard for the playoffs

We got to say goodbye to Burrows too soon. It don't make sense spending 4.5 on less than 10 goals from a winger

I honestly went from thinking tank it for a draft pick to play as a family and be the underdog nobody wants to play in the playofgs

Keep trimming the old dead weight and Ufa's. Burr Vrbata Prust hammer and weber. Let the kids have the keys. If we sink to the bottom or squeak into the playoffs, the Vancouver Canuck hockey fan wins either way!

He has had more than one

I don't hate the guy but I would like to upgrade on him.

I don't like him , but don't hate him.


He was horrible last night

Good luck with that, true number one, or even two guys, are like unicorns….there's not even enough to supply all 30 teams.

Can someone phone Mrs Lefty and ask her to take the keyboard away from her husband.

Yup. Hopefully a trade one day.

She's working, if she'd have saved her pennies like I did she could have retired early too

At this point, trading Burrows is likely going to require salary retention.

- LeftCoaster

We can start a fund so she can retire.

We will call it Take Lefty for a Walk fund.

I thought you said you were going back to work?

Yup. Hopefully a trade one day.

Canucks don't have the horses to make that kinda deal and who's actually available, no one trades those types of players unless they bring back a 23 year old 6'3" 200+ lb 70 point center.

Gotta draft one, plain and simple.

made you look.

I am, but not because I'm broke, it's because I'm bored talking to Vantel every day

Back to work . See you hooligans in two hours.


I know you're welcome for the warning.

They are getting the horses.

I think so too, even if we retain half the salary for a year

They are getting the horses.

Slowly but surely Benning will stockpile the prospect pool, I hope.
