You hated the Sedins their entire career and I didn't see anyone disagreeing that they had slowed down considerably and the end was near in their final years. It doesn't break my heart that the team has improved, which you and a few others refuse to acknowledge me saying time & again. Sorry for confusing all the chatter about being in a wild card position as playoff talk.
Also, this team has very little skill beyond 2 or 3 players. They are far away from being a true contender. With some moves this summer and continued improvement of the younger players, I can see the Canucks pushing for a playoff seed next year.

I don't disagree about my dislike for the Sedins . They are gone I am happy now.


Saying your team is two points out of a wild card spot is not saying I think we are making the playoffs.

First of all I made the comment 2 points out of 15 th spot. I also said I expect to finish 10 th spot from the bottom about 20 times this year.

There are about 20 teams bunched in the middle all I am pointing out is we cave caught up to that group. I know you know I have said over and over we finish 10th from the bottom so don't twist it into I am waiving pom poms saying we are a playoff team.

I like how excited we all are for Karlsson and Panarin or Stone when we should all know we're going to sign like Nyquist and Myers to stupid contracts

There are a few players like Montour (Ana) Athanasiou Det Canucks should look at . They both are up against the cap so maybe taking part of a contract and a player like that

My favorite page is the one that says standings and I look and see I am still 15 points ahead of you

Honestly, if it isn't Stone and Karlsson then Jimbo should be locked in a box. I can be talked into Gardiner and Panarin, but I'd rather they did something like you mention. Teams get themselves into cap issues all the time with bloated mid-teir UFA contracts that go on too long.

If you're not getting the elite player, don't waste time and go and try to grab useful peripherals with your cap space.

Another Eriksson contract could easily sink this (frank)ing team in 2-3 years once the actual good players are all breaking the bank on new deals.

Kole Lind just scored . Two in two games 1-1

That is equivalent to two NHL Gaunce seasons

Nope. I'm only at 21 players and already over the cap, only signed Edler and Boeser. Hughes would come in on an ELC and would need a 13th forward. Gave Panerin $9.5, Karlsson $11.25m, Boeser $5.5m and Edler $4.5m

Panerin Pettersson Boeser
Baertschi Horvat Virtanen
Roussel Beagle Sutter
Eriksson Gaudette Schaller
?
Edler Karlsson
Hughes Tanev
Juolevi Gudbranson
Stecher
Biega

Markstrom
Demko

Not including Hughes this is almost $81m

Damn, Nighty and Telly told me that the cap wouldn't be an issue even with the cap space wasted on Beagle and Rousell.

Lind is in the nhl?

Gaunce is a career PPG player in the AHL, Lind can barely crack the AHL roster.

I was just trying to dummy it down for everyone. Like everyone knows a light year is 6 trillion miles and a Gaunce NHL year is 1 goal .

Crappy offensively though he might be, if we had him instead of beagle, we'd have a shot at signing both Karlsson and panarin.

Panarin Petterson Boeser
Goldy Horvat Virtanen
Beartchi Sutter Eriksson
Motte Gaunce Leivo
Granlund

Edler Karlsson
Hughes Tanev
Hutton Gudbranson
OJ. Stecher

Demko
Markstrome

I would easily call that a contending lineup.
