Bouchard sucks. Not sure about Broberg/ he is a wild card
- CanuckDon

Bouchard will be another griffin Rhinehart imo with a booming shot, processing the game at speed will be an issue with him.

He will always put up points but he is pretty weak in His own. End. Slow as (frank)
- CanuckDon

Lets hope that indeed he does suck. He isnt Canucks property.

The west is poop this year. My god, they are terrible when compared to the eastern conference. I think the Canucks have benefited from such poor competition, they appear better than they truly are.

Saying that, if they stay healthy they can run with the big dogs in the conference. But will keep my expectations very low for this post season so not to end up disappointed again.

I think that statement is so wrong . Not aimed at you but I see that comment all over the place.

Meanwhile #Canucks:
• 6-4-0 vs Atlantic
• 7-4-1 vs Metro
• 6-5-2 vs Central
• 11-5-1 vs Pacific

2 West teams in the top 10 ,but 5 other West teams 2 points out of the top 10. I didn't check to see games played.

I think the Cup will stay in the West again.

Power forwards and defence take time. Well some of them do.

I look back at those picks and I probably wouldn't have ranked them so highly either. Live and learn. Sometimes you have to make that pick to complete your team though.

I hated Hughes pick because a RHD was my preference even though I had Hughes at 4. Again Live and learn

That we can agree on!

I think we can both agree that all it takes for a deep playoff run is a hot goalie. Marky finds another level and who knows...

He's there. Unless you expect him to start pulling balloon animals out of his
ass. His rebound control was other worldly against the Isles.

Just being in the playoffs is going to be great. I'm pretty happy about the idea of watching hockey in April. Right now, I have confidence that they will be a formidable team in the 1st round. If they don't make it past, it won't be crushing. We might even get another Zogg-like meltdown.

Derek Ryan was 29!
132 points in 287 games.

Wasn't Beagle 26 as well or that was his first full season?

Unwhipped cream, damn good. Diet is %70 fat, which is hard to do without carbs attached.
All fat, all the time. Pass the lard please.

I haven't had butter or margarine in 60 years. Of course some things are cooked in it (Not by me)

No mayo or Ketchup in about 35 years. Drink skim milk only and water . Use to drink but no more .

That is my diet

Just find a good liposuction clinic and bring a food grade bucket.

I honestly am not expecting much but I don't think it is a far reach to hope for a first round win. There are very few teams I don't think we can match up against in the West.

Totally agree. Tampered expectations.

I don't mind being called a fan boy because of course I am .
