How many pages of all the canucks players being nhl caliber is this?

I'm regretting not jumping on the permanent ban wagon last year....

When people stop coming here and he ends up arguing with himself then the powers that be will realize their mistake. I just hope Carol can find another team to blog for (Seattle), she deserves a better fan base reading her work.

Well there is our disconnect, you are getting ahead of yourself and talking future. We were just pointing out that the lineup today shows 6 AHL caliber players. Never said they couldn't be more in the future, but at this very moment thats what they are because if Bo, Sutter, Sven, Tanev and Dorsett were healthy Dowd, Boucher, Burmistrov, Gaunce, Biega/Stecher would not have been in the lineup

You are right there is a bit of a disconnect from where we are looking at it. Lets say the accuracy is somewhere in between. Since as you recognize it is not established one way or the other what they are now.

Greztky did it twice.
Mario did it three times

You said he could develop into an NHL player earlier in this thread. He's only younger then Edler... not a prospect.
6 games ago he was an AHL player, now he's a prospect with upside? And your blaming vantel for your confusion?

Is Henrick a 1st line center right now? No, but that's the position he's playing due to no other options. Is Daniel a first line winger? Nope.
Is edler a legitimate NHL number 1 defencemen? His minutes suggest that he is?

My point is that you can put lipstick on a pig all you want, but it's still a pig.

I'll break that down for you.

You can dress an AHL player in an NHL lineup all you want, but he's still an AHL player.




You are a confused puppy. Biega was not referred to as a prospect developing for NHL. Maybe reclamation Boucher falls under that.

What everyone else understood is Biega carving out an NHL depth role. Vantel recognized that early on and I see his point.

Nothing is forcing you to be here. Though Canuck hockey discussion is what Carol appreciates from the fan base. That means differing opinions or angles to seeing things. Banter and slap stick is fun too.

But you can tell her how high you are and why you hate the Canucks instead. Public space you know. Whatever floats your boat.

Yeah, not directed at you, just the crowd in general. No NHL coach looks at that center lineup and says, "hmm maybe I should play Henrik less."
- Nucker101


Agree. It is sad. How many more weeks until Bo and Sutter returns? It will help with some of the pups development and may make less games laughable.

I actually was laughing out loud at the mistakes and back check it was that bad.

The only scrub who seems to have graduated is Pouliot. The season is still young though.

I breathe fresh crisp air, fish daily, go hiking, skiing, snowboarding, trail bike riding, four wheel driving, swim in one of the many, clear freshwater lakes rivers or creeks in my area, cut firewood for my woodstove and stack in my woodpile, shovelling snow, snowmobiling, atv ing, canoeing and kayaking, occasionally wrestle with grizzlies, hunt for deer and moose, watch whales, view the beautiful mountains on either side of Me, discuss my favourite hockey team with people who actually make sense, are articulate, speak in laymens terms and are actually funny.
I also attend quarterly meetings with the Mensa members in my area.

So…we score 5, which is pretty much what you need to win most NHL games and our 'mount olympus' goalies have let in 5-6-7-7 over the past 4/5 games….

Explain please?

That was a good loss. Decent effort from a mostly AHL team.
Keep the losing entertaining.

In other words they didn't make a lot of mistakes but the ones they did ended in the back of their net. The solution is play the Sedins less using are top 2 Centers instead and Tanev more. But that isn't an option right now lol.

This should be a Canadian television commercial shown throughout the U.S. especially given the situation south of our border.

A win would have been nice but ...

1 Hat Trick
2 Boeser Points
3 Sedin's are hot!

Entertaining plus we keep a respectable distance from respectable teams.

Poor Boucher... nowhere to hide when you screw up like that.

Ironic because Angry Don s the greatest poster to pick a fight with the broadcast team.
