It can be done tho. Won’t be able to make big additions or anything this off season, unless they can find a way to move out the poopty two contracts Lou left them.

A HUGE job is ahead this offseason.

Agree & many teams will be juggling it up a ton.

This NHL offseason could be the busiest in recent memory.

Do you ever think for yourself or just the BS you read online?

Are you guys gonna be ok when Babcock is coaching for Holland in EDM?

We don't need to do much.

Winger for Bo.

RHD.

Draft well.

Easy.

I guess you haven't been watching the playoffs, the Canucks have a long way to go. They need at least 2 more skilled wingers for the top 6, a 4th line that doesn't cost over $10 million and 3 more top 4 d-men.

lol I'm not saying playoffs next year champ. Improving slowly and I know exactly what they need.

You just stick to those bottom 3 predictions and let the adults speak.

Yes but I'm concerned about the direction of our team first.

As we stand we need...

A healthy Sven
A top 6 winger
Top 2 D

Prospects in the system to feed us for injuries & &/or trade assets.

All true and the injuries of course are key aspects.

But we'll get there...slowly.

I'm not sold on Sven long-term and we have Hughes coming in and he will be a game changer.

That top 4 RHD is gonna be an issue though.

Sven and a couple picks to Colorado for Barrie

Cool, this we agree on.
You did say, however , was all that they needed was 1 winger to go with Bo and a RHD as well as a good draft. I didn't read between the lines, please forgive me.


The bottom 3 prediction was not remotely outlandish. I have admitted I was wrong, I guess I should have sent you an personal apology via private message.

By a couple of picks do you mean a first and a second ? Lol

lol all good just giving you a hard time.

I understand all your reservations on FA's bad trades picks and the like...I get it.

But I do like the improvement of the club albeit slow. All I'm saying is find a winger for Bo (which may be Pearson) and a RHD to work with Hughes and draft well...that;s it for next season.

We have moved up 3 spots per season since 2017...29th, 26th and now 23rd.

I don't expect or even want playoffs next year as that means more stupid decisions to get to the PO's. But we will improve to 17th - 20th spot IMO. So that brings intangibles.

They year after that however is another story. Pettersson and Hughes are game-changers for this club. Many don't see it yet and maybe they quite aren't generational but if we provide them the support they need in the top 6 forwards and the top 4 D we are gonna compete IMO.

Don't even get me started on goaltending lol

Personally I think these guys are big game chargers, in the regular season, although I really hope they both bulk up, I am worried about long term injuries.

Watching the playoffs I don’t think this team has the physical fortitude to play any team in the conference, Beagle and Roussel will be busy.

Anyone know how my Bruins made out today?

1 will be the PP qb, the other will hopefully put on some weight and become a very good player for this organization.
I agree with your concerns about how they perform, come playoffs.

For sure I understand the differences between reg. season an PO's. For sure something that will need to be worked on.

Sven is not a "need". He's filler. Totally expendable.

This team has lots of filler.
