I'm definitely ok with it, that was imac's article on the current Canucks. The young guys are progressing while the older guys are fading, it's a transition that takes time...but we're on our way.

I agree . My biggest beef has been the amount of time it takes to transition. I know there is nothing you can do about it but it still irks me.

You suck and if you don't improve you will be gone in 4 or 5 years

Social media bloggers on WD love of his AHL caliber players.

"Thursday, Megna had 6:43 of power-play ice time. That’s about a minute more than Horvat or Granlund, and about 6:43 more than Burrows.

Basically, he’s this year’s version of Emerson Etem or Linden Vey – a guy who’s bounced between bottom-six forward lines and the AHL affiliates of teams prior to Vancouver, and who the Canucks evidently believe have untapped potential."

Well put. This is why I sometimes think Aquaman is right about the fans not being able to handle a rebuild. The seasons are long and frustrations grow over every tiny little thing; nitpicking deployments, lineups, effort, etc. as if saying "we are trying to lose" will make it all ok

Edler Subban traded for Duchene


Sorry Lefty and a 2018 second round pick

- VANTEL

LOL wow...garbage and garbage for Duchesne. That would be an even better fleecing then Hall for Larsson

true.

I get some of it, some of it I do't. It is often entertaining or tiring, or both.
and yet, I keep coming back to see what is happening.

Yah.

The interesting thing is the fact that Vegas has 48 hours to select their team.
I'm sure there could be a degree of wheeling and dealing during that window.

In theory, perhaps Benning could make a trade (an NTC or prospect/pick etc) on the basis of protecting an eligible player?

As ironic as it may be, I'd hate to lose Granlund/Sven or even (frank)ing Sbisa

and MAYBE at the all star break you will be more than a low life troll who picks fights daily too. Wouldnt that be nice. What an incredible hypocrite you are, asking some to leave you alone and picking fights daily with others. There's a special place in hell for you

Media bloggers making a non-story a story. The first PP unit, Sedin-Sedin, Edler, Sven, Sutter. Unit 2 Stecher, Bo, Megna, Granlund, Eriksson. How can you complain about someone getting more powerplay time when they are on the same unit? If Willie had his way, he would have wholesale line changes

Huh?!? He's approving or putting them together with the deployment, or isn't he HC?
But change would be welcome cause this isn't working.

I would personally prefer the alternative.
He's younger, better build for our division and appears to have a better knack for scoring goals.

Most importantly, i think he would/should be cheaper to acquire.
But hey, beggars can't be choosers, I'd gladly accept either assuming we don't completely gut the team (Bo, Boeser, O.J, first round picks...crazy how those remain our only true core/future assets lol, 3 players, 2 of which have yet to play an NHL game and future picks ).

Whatre you talking about? Wholesale line change=change the whole unit at once. He doesnt deploy half of PP1 and half of PP2 on purpose, sometimes thats just the way it goes when you change on the fly which is why there is a discrepancy between Horvat's PP icetime and Megna's

Sure. Maybe they take a stab at it with offering Hutton + though probably other teams have better offers. It's only D Nucks have given what we know about what Av's would be interested in. With OJ coming they can offord that now I guess.
