Holy (frank) people...what's with the 600 page reading assignment this morning. Super posts 9000? I've got to go drink a couple more cups of coffee and try this again

Oh boy, we had the traitor and his accessory having a pooppost fest for 10 pages. Just what I wanted to read at 7:30am in the morning. Ugh, it feels like 2012-14 all over again, the only difference is now we actually have a credible blogger in Carol and changed Nucker for NuckFU... or did we? *Twilight Zone music plays*

feels good to have a debate instead of the same old "things are gonna be ok" mantra.

Interesting rankings. Nighthawk will like how Cody Glass is rated, don't think Vantel (nor do I) ,like the fact that Ratcliffe probably won't be around when we select in the 2nd.
Boonerbuck warned me about that a couple months ago, but I continued to hold out hope.

That list looks like the hottest prospects over the past month. Not an overall.

Don't. Do yourself a favour.

Things ARE going to be ok, maybe not this year, or even for a couple of years, but they will. It just is going to take a couple of years past the Sedins retiring for that to happen. I'm with Booner, I preach patience, the teardown is happening it just won't be blatant until after next season.

That is what I thought but they have been pretty consistent with top 5 rankings. They tend to pick a few guys that they like every year and move them up the rankings.

Lol I skipped from 19 to 26. Too many essays

I don't know what you've been reading but we've been arguing with each other like cats & dogs for quite some time. There is 3 people who are saying "things are gonna be ok", one of them posts endless paragraphs page after page after page 24/7.

Top 5 has definitely been there most of the year. Picking top 31 this year will be extremely hard. See what teams do at the deadline and after the expansion draft and it should become a bit clearer.

Of course they are, how they get there, this regime or the next, is interesting to discuss...it's an opinion board, it's to discuss whatever you'd like to discuss. Yesteryear, past, present, future....whatever.

Some see no fault, some see minor or major fault and some see complete incompetence....it's ok to discuss this, is it not?

it was a generic general statement.

Booner's one line nailed it .


The devil has come to collect his debt.

is it safe to come back yet?

Duh. The better teams have the puck more, thus have less hits.

I don't remember reading that and don't know what it means? Nucker coming back?

save yourself the time and don't even bother

Sure, but it's not a discussion, it's become an ideological struggle on here between some posters (not saying it's you). We already get maligned as a fanbase for being schizophrenic about the team and mocked for our fair weather-ness, why bring it to this board?

No he was referring to all the Gillis bad draft picks and selling off second rounders for rentals , NTC/NMC , contracts and extensions is coming to bite us in the ass now.

No one cares about Nucker, he will go running off like a school girl again soon as Canucks hit another winning streak.

Nucker is the little boy who believes so strongly that he's right that he'll do anything possible to make it right and demand that everyone acknowledge that he was right so that he can feel validated.

So what should we use the board for if not to voices our ideas?

We could plan a Jim Benning meet n greet

Most teams that are competing for a Cup do the same, they trade picks for depth to get over the hump, LA did it and won two Cups, just so happens it didn't work for Gillis.

His drafting, I will say, really hurt the club....six drafts, not much to show. Horvat & Hutton.

I'm not sure that would go any better than a town hall meeting.
