didn't you and I go over this as well last week tumble... or was that Walshy... I thought we were going to make strides not to paint everyone with the same brush??

I didn't paint everyone with same brush. That's why I posted the guys name. You don't think that's funny?
- Matthews_Auston

its so comical that it isn't comical. I have maybe seen the guy post once before, but he isn't a regular. The problem is we can't control the thoughts of others, no matter how irrational they are.

People don't seriously think Tanev is going to get them the #3 overall pick do they???
- Matthews_Auston

one guy posts that Tanev is with a 3oa and a 3rd rounder and you think its the consensus? Come on man. If a leafs poster suggested Kapanen is worth two first round picks, I would safely be able to come to the assumption that the individual poster MAY not align with every other leaf poster lol

honestly one of the worst days as a Canucks fan that I can remember. That and the Bertuzzi incident are two of the most embarrassing days as a Canucks fan that I can remember.

Don't worry, Codesie - the Leafs thread is a safe space for opposition fans.

We may tease you a little, but you are welcome here.

canucks re-sign miller yet?

I was only 7 or 8 during the 1994 playoffs, but I can remember my dad telling me how ashamed he was. Was too young to really remember how bad the damage really was.

I've suppressed most of my Leafs memories from the Ballard years.

My psychologist says that's the mind's way of naturally protecting itself.

The memories would be simply too painful to recall.

canucks re-sign miller yet?

I have already expressed my opinion on the 100 reasons NOT to sign Miller, but what do I know lol. My proposal was, sign Condon to a 1 year, 2-2.5 million deal. Significant upgrade on his 900k he made last year. Tell him to fight it out with Markstrom for the starter and see how it plays out. I can't even tell you how much I am against signing a 37/38 year old goalie who is wanting big money, especially when we know he will be paid big money to "mentor" Markstrom. It's so counter-productive in my eyes. I would love for the Canucks to sign a free agent goalie, in their mid 20's, save as much cap as possible, and utilize that free space next year (while we know we won't be good) and take on a bad contract from another team in exchange for a pick or prospect.

For what it's worth, I've always loved Markstrom. Thought he'd be Florida's future goaltender a few years back. Was surprised they let him go.

Between injuries and Benning's inflated loyalty towards Miller, he hasn't really had the best opportunity to be a #1. I don't think I am super confident he can be a true number 1, but I was hoping next year would be a good test for him.

Agreed.

I don't think he'll be the reason the Nucks will miss or make the playoffs next year so might as well know exactly what you have in him.

chad johnson might be a good fit on a 1-year deal. might have some TDL value.

i'll almost feel sorry for you guys and the team's direction if benning signs miller. almost, but not quite.

The actual destruction wasn't that bad - I just peaked on Wikipedia, and they say it was $1.1 million.

The most vivid memory I have is a news clip of Vancouverites linking hands to protect storefronts, and a woman absolutely sobbing, saying over and over "this is bullsh#&!"

The pathetic thing about all Canadian riots is there is no rage - it's just a big laugh to everyone in the crowd. Destruction is fun! Look at us! Wheeeeeeee!

Kapanen and Kadri for Faulk, McGinn and a 1st.
- BINGO!

Very kind but no thanks

Meh...Kap left his man wide open for the series winning goal.

I'll get more excited about him in another year or 2.
- annoyed

Ya terrible for a kid that's played how many nhl playoff games?trade him bust!

Yes he can. Cheap, young, nhl ready, expansion exempt. That's valuable to a team that had an abundance of dman they can't protect. Those team can't take a jvr cAuse they just transfer the protection problem to the forward position.

If they can't get a top 4 dman (they surely can) then makes no sense to move him.

That makes sense! Move along!

lol and here I thought we went over this last week man...

I live on Vancouver Island, so I was watching the destruction from the TV, but definitely hurt just the same.
