Slip and slap and nighthawk were offended with my negative, anti-pom pom takes yesterday. I have taken 2018 into consideration and will try and be positive due to feelings.

Just call it like you see it, (frank) the feelings cops!!!

100% agree with above.

At the same token though, the best "rebuild" move this organization has done since 2012 was schneider for horvat, which was a gillis move. Definitely wish benning was more proactive with rebuilding than treading water and trying to stay competitive

The only other good players were the Sedin's and Edler. NTC's all around.

JB (handcuffed a bit) got a 1st for Kesler.

Hansen and Burrows. picks & prospects.

Otherwise I don't see a lot of worth from anyone even back from 14-15 team.

When you go 10 years without drafting anything. It's pretty easy to have to start from scratch completely.

If Van didn't have the Sedin's and Edler, this team would probably be less then 40 points for the past 4 seasons. Instead of picking 5th, they would be picking 4th.

OJ played with Mete, Vandel Sompel, Bouchard. 4 D above 40 points.

Bouchard plays with some guy name Alec Regula. (Who is also draft eligible) He is second on the team with 21 points. Shane Collins at 12 points.

Ya Pettersson. Lefty spare some hot dogs for the boy to bulk up?

Keep in mind Bouchard plays on a London team that completely blew up their team a few months ago and have no where near the amount of talent they did the last couple years. They got rid of their 4 top scorers - Miletic, Jones, Captain PU and Thomas and he's now their top scorer with 77 points, 8th in the league in points! For some reason, The Knights are playing better now than they were before the blow up. If we pick 5-10 and end up with Bouchard I'd be ecstatic.

Petterson/Ehlers = same size - thats my go to argument for the rest of the year.

Disagreeing is strictly forbidden here man. You dont want to trigger the soy latte drinkers

I still hang on to Gagner one more year as a safety net. It is going to get crowded when Gaudette Granlund Sven Gold and Tkachuk push for jobs next year
- VANTEL

Yeah he can join LE in the press box as insurance and make room for the young talent to make hay...add super prospect EP to the list above.

You could say the same about the portland winterhawks. Many standout players have played for them, super inflated stats, which don't translate to the NHL the same.
- Codes1087

Yeah

Sven, Leipsic, Bjorkstrand, Petan

I feel some teams are like that. Might be coaching IDK.

Teams like London who almost every year their top scorers turn into NHL regulars.

so far

i'll let Marwood deal with you.

He hasnt been in my life since i was born, what makes you think he will come around now

Edler should be top point getter with all his prime minutes and time on the club. He plays all world or all pee wee , that is the knock on him
- VANTEL

By that logic Tanev and Hutton should be top point getters. Some people produce, others don’t. Your logic is flawed.

London always produces good players. I'm just saying Last season, they had to split time between the 4 of them. Bouchard is the only D, he shares with no one.

Pronman said when London traded everyone away. Look out for Liam Foudy, he won't be a 3rd liner anymore. 25 points in the last 17 games since getting top minutes. Nathan Dunkley is very underrated.

Just fixed up one part of your comment bud

Also, I think one of Gran/Sven gotta go - maybe for picks before the draft?

Sign them both to 3 year contracts. Trade both at the deadline.

He signed the other day.

Olli Juolevi has a second period helper. It’s his 19th point (7+12) in 36 SM-Liiga games. #Canucks
