Sobering statistics

Canucks Goal Differential with Petey : +32
Canucks Goal Differential without Peter : -48
Canucks record when he isn't playing: 0-6-3

Give him the Calder and the Hart

- Codes1087

Aka a roundabout way of using +/- 😂👍

I would call the Bull Sh1t on this

Archie and Carcone were moved because they were on a one way contract making too much money for what they did. Even after they were moved the young players did not get into the line up immediately .

Comets are trying to win like any other team and trying to ice the best team possible. I bet after next years draft and players are brought in Gadjovich will still have problems finding minutes

Even though Archie and Carcone were traded weeks ago Goadjovich was a healthy scratch last weekend for two games

All very true IMO 👍
Some players develop at differing rates & the farm always wants to have a winning environment. Breeding success & developing go hand in hand. The use of vets in the AHL is more than important it’s necessary til prospects drive the bus & further deepen our depth pool. When it comes down to injuries & the PO’s the grind requires this. Up top we need game changers & the farm needs C’s & D & Dippy to bolster the organization. The turnstile in Utica has only just begun & draft picks coming will come & go as their ability to progress determines. So far it’s moving along upwards but lots more yet to do.

BPA i hate to admit is the plan lol

Next is a true star UFA’s is getting closer to attaining if we continue to build up from within. The LE’s should not be an example.

Fair take. Having said that EDM played a tough game after that and WPG will take care of their own...we just sit there and do nothing. Old school thinking or not whether it's the same game, two months or two weeks something should be done IMO. We are soft and need to shed that image.

The Jets have a big line-up few teams have & hard to emulate but yes big talent with speed & skill all teams are seeking.

The probability of these guys becoming full time NHL players is very slim. Even guys with high expectations like Dahlen may not ever make it.

The better the Canucks get the less spots are open. You need to preform hard every shift and on top of that you have to be very good.

We have a home in Grayhawk. Fitness club, we wanted something that wasn’t in need of us being there full time. And yes, I’d take a bad weather day down there vs any January west coast day here.

I Need a gym down there. Nice work! I’m in keirland near the Westin

Total Wine & More. It’s a pretty big chain, but selection is much grande and so cheap (compared to the criminals in BC)!

I agree. Once we have more elite talent the role players slot in when needed or as call ups. Hughes is coming & he will help but a couple more still needed to be found. More the better ala TBL.

Sorry MV, accidental flag.

I read CA on occasion, and other blogs. Perspective is good. If we only read the things we agreed with life would be pretty boring. I think that’s why this comments section gets so much action, because most of the people here are idiots

Guilty. I check about every three days or so. With all the writers they have you would think they could publish more often than Carol does, but they don’t...

Sometimes there is something worth reading, mostly not, and then there’s the Goody or Sutter sucks post that I just can’t help but to share

With Slater Koekkoek trade - which #TBLightning hasn’t officially announced yet - Tampa Bay will have dealt six of their last eight first round picks (Koekkoek, Howden, DeAngelo, Drouin, Namestnikov, Connolly). Only Foote + Vasilevskiy remain from 1st rnders picked in Yzerman era

We need more C’s with upside. Madden looks to be maybe a nice surprise. Who else is there or is their only ZacMac?

Lefty wants a LW drafted but i see it is as C or D are more in need longterm. BPA will get us one of the 3 hopefully & need to mine the others asap. LW is the simpler option for obvious need. Still he would need talent on the farm to play with if sent down.

He’s even smaller than a hobbit. I mean, maybe he’s the next Braden Pointe, but more likely he’s the next Jordan Schroeder

I think he has a much better engine but still he has a big hill to climb.
