TSN on the Canucks.

Ray: Not a playoff team just yet. I don't know where they are going to score. Defence better than yesterday. Can't see them catching up to the other teams, haven't done enough.

Guy next to him: It's about identity. TG great job of coaching, what type of team do we want to be. Collection of players without real definition.

Fat guy: EP is a superstar. Solid goaltending, get some goals, playoff spot.

Pierre: Fix the 22nd ranked power play in the league. Newell Brown one of the better PP coaches.

Ray: Not enough skill. Not enough creativity.

Ferarro is too close to the city , the team and the TSN hype. If you hear every day (TSN1040) Canucks suck and Benning is an idiot you get caught up and start believing it.

Canucks will have more PP points and less goals against . They still need to make some moves by the end of next year but they are going in the right direction. They are not cup contenders now but they are close to a playoff team IMO . Next year more improvements .

well said

Excuses.

Front loaded contract, no trade protection. I like this deal.

2/1 it will be an Asian (sorry Codes)
- VanHockeyGuy

100% it will be an Asian

(No offense taken, they cant operate a vehicle worth shlt)

You know I think green is a good coach and I know you have some valid gripes. I feel the positives he brings far outweigh the negatives. Every team has games they aren't ready, such as early starts on Sundays while on the road crossing time zones, 3 games in 4 days etc. We had tons of those last season, jb mentioned it even. Patience with green, we are better with him than without.
- SMBDragon

Green is learning like all rookie coaches do and needs to be cut a little slack. Big test for Green in the next two seasons is the PO's. If they get in in a few seasons he'll be safe if not he'll be gone.

Sorry TSN basically said if Van doesn't sign Andres Lee they aren't going to be good enough.

THose geniuses dont seem to understand we are already over the roster limit and tight for cap space. How do they have their jobs?

I think by signing Benn and Fantenberg was an exclamtion point on OJ right now about not being ready yet.

Knee surgery to recover & recondition from 1st. Injuries will happen.

We have tended to carry 8 D tho, we'd have space

Why would you bring him up to sit in the press box?

I’m expecting playoffs. Look at the rest of this division. Almost everyone is getting worse/older

Is that your explanation for everyone here?

No. Don’t stop it now. Could have kept going for another six pages.
- bloatedmosquito

Still can, I just don’t understand how you can be so blind to the instant benefit that Myers will bring, same regarding Benn. Benning is one of the best GM’s this franchise has ever had.....eeevvvveeeerrrrr.

Just messenger. I don't listen to TSN. They compare all teams to other teams as if they are exactly the same. I've learned over time, if you want to be in depth into things you can't do every team and every player.

These guys don't know what's going on with every team. Not possible to keep up.

All teams improve every year and it doesn't happen exactly as they say it's going too. I'll wait till the games are played.

Does signing Ferland give Van a significant upgrade over an entire year of Levio or Virtanen at double the price?
- manvanfan

Canucks should get rid of virtanen, and tanev while they can.

Myers will be a millstone around this organization's neck.

Why would you bring him up to sit in the press box?
- VANTEL

Let's see what he brings in the pre season

The Canucks have been getting more competitive every year for the past couple of years. Benning has added a couple pieces to help keep on that track.

with the moves Fentons been making lately - I think we could get Zucker for Boucher and Vey
- Brooks_Light

Fentonal does want to get younger
