Alumni always seem to be considered even though most have absolutely no qualifications outside of playing hockey. Talk about country club.

I don’t think you grasp the the qualifications concept, Burrows was not only a poster child on determination, desire and success, he is also an AHL assistant coach with Laval.

But hey your team already has one overrated AHL coach with Green I can see why you wouldn’t be receptive to a better version from the AHL.

Regarding prized 2023 draft prospect Matvei Michkov's contract extension with SKA that runs through 2025-26 -- it bears mentioning that the number of Russians being selected in the annual CHL Import Draft has decreased from an average of 22 between 2013-2017, to 14 from 2018-2020

Just listening to Bob and his draft rankings.

#4 Matthew Beniers projects as a 2nd line center.

Not many prospects project as 1C or top 2 D. Elite status & generational talent are not aplenty.

Ohlund, Kesler should take maholtras job as faceoffs specialist.

Or he can coach this....

You just worry about polishing the name plates on The Ring of Honour.

Rumour has it Hoglander is still in Sweden playing hockey.
Good thing no one was at the airport to greet him.

He is playing Thursday then leaving.

That should probably change because the word generational comes once a generation. Elite players make up 1 position of 3 on first lines. Maybe 2 if you're lucky.

So youre basically saying there is maybe 30 first line players in the league? out of the 93 that play the positions.

Hopefully he's got more then just hype behind him like Aatu Raty.

After world juniors last year, I couldn't understand how Raty was touted as a potential first overall pick.

I don't know how Bob and scouts put him in there top 10 this year.

Jasek with goal and assist.

scroll down for assist highlight.

Alex Steen is going to retire. 1 year left at 5.75. Probably just LTIR for the year. Cap space for STL.

I'm thinking that Luo doesn't deserve the ring of honour for his cap recapture penalty.

Sounds like it is worse than the flu.

My take on the ROH is a lot ado about nothing. It is a pretty meaningless ceremony that makes some fans happy. Canucks players list over the 50 years is pretty crappy so to me it does not make a difference if the club wants to hang a picture of some guy that played here.

I will remember Luongo as a Florida Panther and a guy who didn't want to play here. His heart was always looking to find a way back to Fla. He had good and bad while he was here. If it makes some people happy then why not? No big deal.

They'll have to power through it. If they don't feel safe they should stay home.

Played more games as a Panther than a Canuck and (frank)ed the Canucks. Straight up no to ROH, no matter who (frank)en cries about it.

Zlodeyev with 3rd line duties today

Might be able to understand a bit of Russian by the end of 2020 at this rate.
