Sometimes I think you get defensive of any negative comment way too easily

Defensive?
Hardly more like stupid talking about Holm had any semblance of a good game.
Buddy looking at stats didn't watch the game. Plain enough?
Epic fail on a 9-4 post mortem

Anyone who uses just one stat to make an arguenent on how good a player is in need of help lol

Each stat has value ...sometimes stats can tell you a lot about a players game, but sometimes they are just stats and don't mean squat

I would say how well a dman defends his blue line against puck carriers and how well he moves the puck out of his own zone is pretty crucial to a team's success

Some Indica edibles will help with pain & sleep. I can attest to that. I'm sure they may not be easy to attain there but if you have someone going to Victoria, get them to go to a dispensary.
Feeling for you, man.

I've got some infused oils that are nice, I'll see if i can get some indica edibles delivered, CBDs are so helpful.

Thanks, I just want to walk again, never going to be 100 percent again, I'd like to try to get close though.

I can now honestly admit the Canucks won the Kesler trade as much as i ripped it when it happened.

1) Sutter is a solid shutdown 3LC with some grit and leadership. Younger 20 goal center is barely a downgrade from a douchebag old 25 goal scorer. Bonino sucked ass here, guy can't skate and this team is already too slow.

2) Gubdranson a solid #4 shutdown dman with grit and leadership as well. McCann is likely a bust, smart of JB to move him before it was too late. The one thing I do trust is JB's prospect evaluation, if he was willing to move McCann then something was wrong here.

3) Dorsett is the only guy with balls on the team to fight and hit, how can you not love him?

4) Forsling is overrated on here, I swear some prospects get more love here once they get traded away. He'll be a bottom pairing offensive dman at best, I'd rather have Hutton and Stetcher. Of course he'll look decent on the Hawks playing with Kane and Toews and people are gonna freak out when he puts up a few points. Typical.

5) Sbisa was a decent stopgap here, and he helped us get a better draft pick. Isn't that exactly what team tank wanted? How can you hate Benning for doing what you wanted? Pick a damn side.

Poop on you. It sucked. Don't try to justify it. Kesler was a difference maker and the rest ain't. This team needs difference makers more than shutdown ability, grit, and balls.

A players QoC and his own linemates heavily weigh in on those stats.

Thats a bit short-sighted. There isn't a team in the NHL who wouldn't expect a defensive prospect to know how to play D first........especially at that size....
- chompsey


Not short sighted. More like exaggerating for effect.

TBH, I want goals at any cost. I won't give a (frank) about the canucks defence until the playoffs.

Sure, anything can appear quite reasonable. In some situations, murder seems quite reasonable.

You basically repeated what JB said to Aquaman at his end of year review. But it seems more like an excuse than an endorsement.

And I don't buy the gun to the head excuse either. Some GMs don't allow that to happen to them.

Both can look certain ways depending on who your linemates are and who your playing against

I've never seen you weigh in so many factors in your judgements before... welcome to the dark side.

Why is it always a one or the other, there seems to be to many Tanner thinking people in the world

Yes, both bad trades. It's funny because Benning was praised for the Vey trade originally

I agree, I'd rather lose 10 to 4 then win 3 to 2, 82 games of the year. A 0-82-0 season with a GF of 250 would be awesome even if the GA is 300 or more. 🖕

Most media outlets, Canucks Army, posters...at the time it was said he was the primary driver on the Pearson Vey Toffoli line in the A. Obviously that was bs

I don't know why people are all excited because Subban scored a lucky goal, he was dreadful yesterday. I was row 5 and keeping a close eye on Subban, Juolevi, Lind, Virt and Boeser. He can't handle an NHL pass and is a trainwreck in his own end. He also made multiple bad pinches. Kid needs to be converted to wing or he is a lifer in the AHL.
