After reading those jokers in both this thread and their blog I have never wanted anything more than Gudbranson traded to the Leafs for Marner.

They are certainly a cocky bunch since their team has gotten a bit better this year, hope they crash and burn and the team is screwed for a decade.

Theyll lock up all those soft one way forwards to huge money and never have a defense. Blackhawks type cap hell to follow

Listen I get that they are pro Leaf players, just like you guys are Pro Canuck players.

What gets my goat, (sorry Lefty) is that they come here stir up any conversation even if it is a lark, run back to their blog and literally post "you should see what those idiots, (morons, whatever) canucks fans are posting. Then a mob drops by and the poop starts. The only one that posted in their blog from here was me and I was trying to add humour to their pile on, but of course I'm a troll for posting.

They could do worse, but this isn't a Leafs thread, last time I checked.

I'm looking forward to the game tonight. Should be another loss, based on recent play & roster, but I'm hoping Goldy has a big game playing against his idol.

Sorry...6-2 Caps.

OvenChicken Hatty.

Boeser - Granlund score.

Hank will say we played better than the score indicated and playoffs are on the radar.

Marky pulled after 4.

Benning will re-surface with a 4 year deal.

Talks will start on Sedins for a one year deal next season.

Aquafeenie will hand all final decisions to Linden.

Travis Green will make Gulutzans stick tossing incident look like a Mr.Burns ceremonial pitch.

I think I may have asked before but is it the same kind of pizza each time or to you vary the toppings each time?

Take it out of the oven immediately. Save your pizza nights for next season after we have Dahlin

I forgot to include Gaudette to my analysis of players better than Marner

1) That's the thing though. Both goalies are currently below the .910 sv% bar, and both have been better than that throughout their recent careers. They're better than what they've showed so far and will finish the season a bit better.

2) Adding OJ and Gaudette is great for depth, younger players are more NHL-ready nowadays, especially ones that have had a couple of years to develop after being drafted. They should be solid players. EP is already playing against grown men and dominating. If midgets like Gaudreau can play then so can he. Start him on the wing with Bo.

3) And as you said, with a nice chunk of money available this summer, the Canucks can sign an impact UFA as well

- Nucker101


1) That's kind of misleading to what the reality is. Both goalies have played above .910% for one season as backups but have averaged less than .910% over their careers. Now that they are starting more, their % is going down. Seems like what would happen when you play backups too much. Which is why I predicted before the season we would have the worst goaltending in the NHL.

2) I agree Guadette will likely be pro ready, disagree on Pettersson and Juolevi. I'm fine with being proven wrong, but I don't think either will be ready for the 82 game grind or the physicality of the NHL. Johnny was 21 when he entered the league, more physically mature despite his size.

3) I do think whoever is GM will back the truck up for Kane, he brings everything this team doesn't have as well as hometown love. I like the idea, but I also just think it's one of the few UFA's of any quality that will want to play here. Vegas and not having to pay taxes might be too tempting for him, but there aren't many young UFA's out there. I would love to target John Carlson and offer him whatever he wants, but again I just don't think he's going to want to work here and get paid way less after taxes and Canadian dollar are converted. Vegas you literally get paid 1/2 again what you would make in Vancouver because of the state taxes, put that together with an over-achieving team and UFA's are going to flock there IMO.

Different, this one will have ham, artichoke, red onion, pine nuts and roasted garlic.
