How can you of all people poop on KC? I would think he's exactly the kind of player you would like. Skilled, young, with truculence. What's not to like?

I agree with you, it's fantasy. But if people are going to talk Zucker (which is dumb IMO) then I'm talking Conner damnit.

The other team has to want to make the trade.

I know, but other people make up stupid proposals all the time so why can't I do it?

At least mine is a reasonable comparison.

Ya from what I've seen of Boeser this year so far Kyle Connor is a notch above him for sure...for right now. Man that Connor plays every shift like it's his last. Love to see that compete level here.

I have to wonder if there is a rift in the room? If Miller is continually on Boeser...WTF is going on?

Maybe a bit of entitlement, on Brock's behalf. Although he gets points, they aren't generated from his work ethic, mostly because he gets to play with the best offensive centre, ie Bo in his 1st year and now Elias.
Plus his neutral and defensive zone coverage isn't very good, hopefully he improves in that area.

I didn't get it at first and then I did. So true.

This latest hoopla around the exercise bike ad is something to behold. I guess the actor who played the husband is a teacher here in Van.

People are coming after him. He's concerned about his future. Has the world gone mad?

Isn't that what we do here?
Btw; Connor over Brock all the time.

Sounds like Podkolzin

Vancouver does need a forward player with top notch speed. A dynamic they don't have.

I'd rather win the BOS/STL type of team play/depth than the Oilers/ Leafs

- manvanfan

If only JV had a better brain. His north/south speed rivals McDavids.

Holy poop I hadn't heard about that and just looked it up. WTF is wrong with people? I swear people are making careers out of being offended.

That is one terrible commercial. Lol. I understand the critique of it, it feels like the start of a Black Mirror episode. That said, it’s waaaay over blown. And going after the actor is just stupid/sad.

Ya, it's pathetic really. What if she wants to exercise more, but just doesn't have the time to go to the Gym? something for the home becomes the perfect gift then.

What? I like Conner! My point is WPG does as well. The Zucker and hall talk is just rage inducing dribble by a few select fanboys

As was mentioned earlier, it was all just in fun. I doubt anyone thinks Brock for Zucker is a good trade, nor do I believe anyone thinks we should be trading several assets for Hall.

I think all they needed to do differently is have a 5 second set up at the start where she says she wants an exercise bike for xmas. Boom crisis averted

Noel Gunler has speed, skill, and the effort is there. Forechecks hard. One issue that has been present since last year is he's consistently behind the play. He makes up for it eventually because of his speed, but routes are iffy and he overcommits like crazy. Fixable nonetheless.

Makes me think of a Virtanen type player. One of the older players in the draft class. Almost all of these mocks have him in the top 15.

NYR may have pitched Lias Andersson to Oilers for Puljujarvi but Edm doesn't feel the Swede plays with enough pace to his game. Some only see him as a fourth-liner

------------------------
From being drafted near Elias Pettersson and turning into Victor Rask.

Goldy for Andersson. Van will develop him Andersson.

Benning/Brackett will draft another great young player if the Canucks miss the playoffs again

Had to google this since I had no idea what you were talking about.


Wow. Outrage culture continues to reach new lows. It sucks for the people who are outraged over things that actually matter because they’ll all get grouped into one and made fun of.

1st too? I don't think so. I'm not saying it would/will/could happen. I'm not a Brock hater, I just like KCs game better than Brock's so whenever a trade scenario comes up I post about it.

TBH, it sucks that JT has to hound him to keep motivated and hustling. BB gives up too early on plays, whether defensive or offensive. Is that a personality thing or is it an experience thing?

The rest of the league probably agrees with you, so it would be Boeser +, so what’s your plus that would make Chevy stay on the line?
