I was being facetious.
They are par for the coarse as most has expected. I suspect we will see the same next season, too. Hopefully after that the upswing starts.

A man with a pipe bomb was caught last night at Cordova and Hawks. Police dismantled it and are now considering laying charges.


That is very thoughtful of them . No one can ever accuse Canadians of being too polite

Not likely...on pace for 86 pts I don't think that's gonna change much.

How would you feel about an Oil/Flames first round matchup? Possible?

Sounds about right.

So the standings this date last year: Canucks had 49 pts in 47 games, 113 GF 130 GA. This year they have 48 pts in 46, 112 GF 130 GA.

Rebuild complete!

In all seriousness, the abysmal division we are in and the collapse of NSH and DAL really seems to have confused some folks around here.

They did tank in the second half last year.

Seemingly against their own will

I've been keeping my distance on all this playoff /future isn't bad talk. I felt we were a bubble team and that's where we are. We need to draft high 2 or 3 times still.

Yep, it's all very risky. If the standings stay the way they are come April, the differential between a playoff position and top 5 pick could literally be 2 or 3 wins lol.

This and using ALL of their picks when doing so.

This follows under the category the sky is falling.

Benning said today he gets calls daily from other GMs asking about trading D

People told us including yourself all summer how bad we are , thaat we are a 63 point team. Yet here we are in the hunt for a playoff spot.

Sedins are exploding with a 1 of 23 PP. What are you afraid of hurting? Is 1 of 50 that much worse than 1 of 23? Big deal pay 14 mil for one more goal on the PP .
Is that really that ludicrous? Is there -10 -7 plus /minus not replaceable ?

We have them for another year and I think by that time most fans will be wanting to drive them to the airport. Everyone gets old , we will be fine and if not we will get high picks

Thing is, i don't think this team can afford to move Hutton and potentially lose Sbisa to expansion.

Elder-Stetch
Gud-Tanev?
Tree-Biega?

That D would be good for maybe 40 points a season combined
Kane is a money hungry douche who happens to be a UFA in 2018, i could totally see him walk out in favor of a large contract in Vegas or NYR etc.

Also, can you trade an injured player?

Meh, he's a 27 year old utility guy

I think we got enough of that with Hansen, Granlund, Sutter, Burrows etc.

Also, he's 5'9, 175 lol, someone will absolutely crush him in this conference.
Imagine Ferland taking a run at him

Proved he can score 20 goals, similar cap hit as Sbisa. #HockeyTrade

Not that i'm a fan of Ennis

Sounds like Gaunce but picked in the 7th round

exactly

For the 3rd time, I heard the interview. We obviously interpreted it differently.

True i dont want to lose Sbisa either, and your right i could see kane doing that but would be nice to have on the team.

I though you could trade injured players, isnt that how buffalo got kane in the first place?
