I wouldnt say O'reilly and Bergeron (though the two are close IMO). The rest I would agree are players I would take over him if I was starting a team

What kind of sick, twisted and delusional fan cheers for their team to win? Flagged again, please show yourself out
- CanuckDon

I'm (frank)ing shocked... when the team was losing and I criticized the tank mentality in here, I was labeled a bad fan for saying this ^^^^exact same thing, there was only a hand full of us anti tankers, now looky looky
- Makita

There still is only a handful of us. The local media does not help one bit with their daily drama & hysteria. They are an embarrassment starting with Bichford, The Grim Reaper & Pratt.

13 years and counting for the rebuild in Calgary. 3-4 years they may make it out of the bottom 10.

There is some good stuff on the Canucks and going after 2 college free agents on UND that play with Boeser.

Drake Caggiula - FWD (who many teams are currently pursuing as he is one of the top free agents in NCAA and Troy Stecher D-man (who's dream is to play for the Canucks as his Dad has season tickets).

Are you getting a bouncy castle for your 13th birthday party?

Good thing you guys have Brian Burke on board. Finding Number 1 goalies is one of his specialties.

Where's Weise?

Where's Weise?

He has his own uber superior elite category.

How many cups for:

Tavares, Giroux, Stamkos, o'reilly ?


- LordHumungous

O'reilly's truck was full of cups after he drove it thru the Tim Horton's

yes...Weise is.

12 games with a deep CHI team and no goals. Career 4th liner (probably get a cup being carried by Toews though)

- LordHumungous

how can he be a career 4th liner when he spent his time in Mtl playing 3rd line? and is given that role in chitown? are both clubs that desperate for talent and lacking in depth they are forced to put him on the 3rd line?

- WhiteLie

if i were starting a team, i'd take mcdavid, and eichel as well...

No, and to even suggest the last one is laughable.

- LordHumungous

I do agree Toews is better then O Reilly, the others on the list are pretty accurate, but Toews didnt win the cups by himself, its a team game, individually, the talent of tavares, crosby, giroux, malkin, kopitar,stamkos pass Toews

what's up with you? you criticize people that are happy where they are at and want to tell them they shouldn't be happy... are you happy where you are at?

o'reilly has done a great job in buffalo this season... unless someone's actually watched a game or two ( or more, which I have) of buffalo this season, that person won't appreciate what he brings to the club every night.

I enjoyed the game last night!

The Kings played hard and the Canucks prevailed—and Hansen showed that he can be PP guy, which is an idea I like a lot.

But yes, a faction mourns and Henrik preaches caution.

Individually I would take Toews over Tavares, Giroux, Kopitar any day of the week...a it's not all about stats. I'm looking at the complete package where most do not.

Many 4th line guys get a taste of the third line Kap (even 1stor 2nd line) but ultimately they end up where they belong. Weise had a few flashes in MTL but really they had him back on the 4th line in no time after their slide down the standings continued. In CHI he has better players to work with and still has not manufactured a goal in 12 games. It is what it is.
