I really hope they don't re-sign in two years, it's time to move on from them, I hope Benning does the same as he's done with Hamhuis and sees it's time for a fresh start with youth.

They've got two years to get another top line center in the system and develop him.

I hope so too but if we don't we have that safety net

I got custom fitting for Mizuno irons and it really changed my game. They're just such nice irons to play and the miss hits are so forgiving.

Nike Driver…it's all in the shaft but it keeps the ball in play for me.
M2 3 wood…don't like the driver but I hit the 3 wood long and straight.

MAN DO I HATE NIKE CLUBS! HAHA probably just because I can't hit them.
King Cobra driver 280 yards avg straight.
Callaway 3 wood 260 avg never know where it goes though. I haven't hit it since I got my irons because I can hit my 4 iron 240 straight.

I don't golf often, maybe couple of times a year and I often skip years. Usually I shot in the high 80s. Yesterday I was 99! I hit probably 100 trees. Shot 81 my first time this year. I enjoy golfing but somedays I really suck.

How does someone who hits his Driver 280 yards straight and his 4 iron 240 yards straight shoot 99?

They'll be 37 when their current deal expires, 38 before the next season starts if they extend. They'll have over 1300 games and over 1000 points each by then….I think they'll be done in two years to be honest.

- Scooby_Doo

It's pretty simple, I have good length but i'm \ or / to the side of the green. I'm often pin high. So then I have to chip. ONCE in a blue moon, I follow through and my chipping is awesome. Most often I'm chipping once and then chipping again. After chipping the second time i'm usually still 30 feet away from the hole. If my approach shot hits the green i'm a par golfer except for 3 or 4 holes that are all double or triple bogey. The 99 yesterday had 2- 9's! on the scorecard on par 4's. 10 strokes in 2 holes. 99 turns to 89

Drafting at a similar position next year can't hurt either. Vegas say's it's likely.

Bo has just finished his second year and has put ub better numbers than Hank did in his first two years.

The answer could be staring right at us.
- VANTEL

I have hopes that Bo can turn into a true 1C but After that there is a hole for a good 2.

Although I think they'll be a better team next year, I still don't think they'll be a playoff team, which means a lottery pick.

Just need to draft well wherever they pick!

It will be interesting to see how PLD develops. JB's first choice.

He'll probably end up back in junior next year but I'll watch him periodically on the stat sheet.

Sutter is here for 5 more years
- VANTEL

That's an issue with him being a poor choice as a number two center. I'll qualify that by saying he's a good special teams guy, he's good on the face-offs, but he's not a good option 5 on 5 as a second line center.

His career high in assists is 19…..19!!! That's not what a center should be in terms of puck distribution. If McCann was still here I'd hazard a guess he'd beat that next year. Bo already beat that in his second year.

Landon Ferraro signs with Blues

The only team I see the Canucks as better than is the Coyotes and the Oilers. Even if the better teams take a step back, they're not falling back 20 to 30 points or to the Canucks level.

6 months...more like 3 months.
Adidas are selling Taylor made, they are losing money.
I hate the white driver, not for me.
- Scooby_Doo

Yeah I suppose. I was never a big fan of the white head either. Which driver are you using now? I was fortunate to hit the new D3 Titleist at demo days and thought it was by far the best driver there…the new Callaway Xr is pretty damn nice too.

Looking at highlights from training camp, Boeser Lockwood D'Aoust look good on the forwards. Lockwood has some good speed. Hunter who?
- VANTEL

Boeser looks like a winner to me. Looks like he has the look and the attitude.

I spent the time and did that as well this season. Spent 3 hours at demo days with the rep and went with Mizuno. They don't get the accolades but they make one of the best irons out there.

I don't know how Winnipeg can have the same odds as the Canucks, they've got a much better team and much better prospects! In terms of numbers.

If they extend, I think it would be year by year. Even if they do extend 2 years. Van will need to draft a C and LW to replace them at the end of this year gives them 3 years to develop them into top 6 forwards. Will be just finding players to round out the bottom 6.
- manvanfan

I personally think they will extend for two years around 7 million. 4 million the 1st year and 3 million in 2nd. It will probably be a slow transition at first with Horvat Sutter and Hank all splitting the load but Horvat being the #1 Center until we have a better option. Perhaps he's a better 2 way 2C but it doesn't mean he can't play responsible first line minutes until we find a better one through the draft or have some luck and maybe Lockwood develops into one (wishful thinking but the kid has speed and skill). It's the wingers and scoring that needs to be better. Besides Boeser, Virtanen, Baertschi and maybe Rodin there isn't much in terms of potential scoring and Boeser is probably the only one of those 4 that will have the higher scoring touch with first line potential while the others will maybe top out at top 6 wingers. I see a very empty spot on the second line wing right now and that's what Benning is working to fill.
