As in edit it? No.

Yes, clearly Hughes has transformed the D. I'm just saying that between overpaying in FA for Pietrangelo versus changing the D/team D system, I think the systemic change will do a lot more for the team than just bringing in one other guy.

- NewYorkNuck

That would be all in.

That's something I wouldn't do. They have been developing players nicely. Time to see what they have in them.

If you can remove the five minutes of brain farts from Demkos game then you would have a goalie of the future.

I still think Canucks will sign Marky at a decent contract. I believe they have a walk away number and I don't think the Canucks will bend.

- VANTEL


If you remove 5 minutes of brain farts from most goalies game then you probably have a very good goalie lol

I think demko can develop into a good goalie ...but they already have a guy who could be better than demko ever is

They were wounded when they got spanked by them last week.
- Marwood

They were desperate and at home. Now they are wounded tired and away.

When one person buys in, the rest will follow.

If they could play consistently then will probably see something like the nice little win streak they went on before.

I'd still like to see some better/ more physical D men for next season. Stecher tries but gets blown up too often.

Dillon, Edmundson, Maatta are 3 D that are pretty much Fatburger but a little better, more consistent. Which might be because of games played.

One guy is a real question mark to me about physicality and defence play of Raffy?

- manvanfan



Rafferty is okay defensively . He doesn't make the glaring mistakes OJ made at the start of the year.

Keep an eye on Briesbois .He is a darkhorse but I think he is second in line.

Nice pick with OJ Jim

Weren’t the Canucks ahead of the flames for months ? Pretty sure I still made appearances to tell you how much I hate your oilers
- Redmile247

I never maintained the Nucks would finish ahead of the Flamers.

I just find it funny how you systematically 'pop in' around the Flames win streaks.

Really depends on how quickly Demko wants to drop those 5 bad minutes.

Jake Kielly got his first win with the Comets yesterday giving up two goals only in his first AHL game.
- VANTEL

I read a random tweet the other day, I think it was a bit old but the person whoever it was said that he could watch Mitch Eliot shoot the puck all day long and bash people into the boards. Something like that.

He does get shuffled up and down between ECHL and AHL all the time.

Is he the Zac Mac of defence?

Someone I really never paid any attention too and I know nothing about.

Fair enough. It would be nice to see the Canucks return the favour.

TG has promised they play their asses off the rest of the year. Who takes the blame if they lose tonight?

I just want to see the Battle of Alberta first round and watch the Oil take out the Flames in 5. Gonna be a war.

Beyond that I could honestly care less about EDM

They outplayed them for 50 minutes, not exactly a spanking.

He’s got a better draft record than any othrr GM that’s done the same amount of drafts... probably a fair few that have had more

Brisebois requires waivers next season I think. Maybe he's the 7th D next year. I'd like to see how he has progressed.

Most of the comets D are good at hitting (Not OJ and Rafferty is not noted for hitting)

He does have a good shot and a good puck mover. He gets moved around a lot.

He is 22 so a bit of a late start. A bit of a long shot but too early to say yes or no.

This year Canucks should dedicate their draft (later rounds to D)
