I really don't know this fascination about the security Council. I mean it wasn't a big deal when Harper lost it, was it?
The result means that the government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper is the first to have failed to maintain Canada’s record of winning a place on the 15-member body – the UN’s most powerful – once a decade since the United Nations’ 1945 launch.

I actually don't mind McCay. He was my choice during the merger (and he's a friend of my brother's - no joke.)

More like zero lobbying power. Nothing in this CBA really helps out Canucks. No relief on cap recapture though other teams will get a break, losing chance of consolation shot at 1OA; Flat cap makes UFA's harder to keep and RFA's taking bridge deals instead of locked up long term; and NCAA draft picks still get to walk.

There actually is cap relief on recapture but it won't help Canucks . It is geared at teams like Nashville Minny and Habs.

It would have been nice for a chance at a first round pick this year only because of what hockey may be next year.

Yes that's what I meant about other teams getting a break. The amendment limits cap hit to AAV of retired cap recapture player. I posted the details in some discussion the other day but the discussion by the others focused on Lui's decision more lol.

I agree with you on the draft pick. We were just all going in as a win win situation to this play in round with Wild. As consolation for losing was 12.5% chance for 1OA. Can't believe even that gets taken away now too. Canucks just not getting any breaks any way you look at it.

So maybe the hockey gods give them a long run, like Bo is focusing on ,to give us fans something to put stock into as a good future outlook.

Trading Boeser to sign Toffoli would be so Jim Benning, completely asinine to the nth degree! The idiot just can’t get out of his own way....hopefully not true. The team needs Toffoli AND Boeser if they want to be better than a bubble team.

Good question, but if it’s for cap reasons to sign Toffoli I suspect it’s for a 1st round pick and a prospect

Ok 👍

1) So can Toffoli replace what Brock offers?
2) How would the new top 3 lines look?
3) Any prospect ready to step in?

just a few things to consider but idk either how or if it plays out to our benefit.

I seriously doubt it’s true, Boeser’s a better player than Toffoli and he’s five years younger, it would make zero sense at all....so pretty much classic Jim Benning

Boeser has 71 goals 156 points 188 games the past three seasons, Toffoli has 61 goals 125 points 232 games, Boeser obviously played less games but he’s a better offensive producer.

Nice stats but Toffoli is better all around & a proven winner. If price is similar it’s all about the 5yrs diff & if the prospect has it covered. The return is key not solely on moving Boeser. If he stays it’s all good. Lots of fun for years to come.

Trading Boeser to keep Toffoli would be incredibly stupid. However, this is a Sekeres/TSN roomer so I doubt it has any validity.
I think we need to start a pool to pick what date the league has to cancel the tournament thingy.

Rick D hears Brock is in play. I'll assume he isnt in play then.

I agree 100%.

The timing of this rumor is poorly as well.
