Ferraro taking a shot at Pod;

I'm sure you'll get some pushback here on that.

Yesterdays suggestions for Bo's right wing guy were Motte and MacEwen. Before that people suggested Sven and Loui.

That spot is wide wide open.

Didn't Ferraro say the same thing about Virtanen. No wonder the cheerleaders hate him so much. I find Ferraro is often right about his observations. I enjoy his brutal honesty.

Yup, Jakes penciled in the top 6, rumors that BOS want's him. I think this is Jakes last season with the team. Showcase the hell out of him.

Earlier in the tournament, Ferraro was talking up how Podkolzin would be a big point producer this tournament, not sure who is a bigger idiot Buttons, Ray or Minivan.

But you didn't want to trade the Sedins so full rebuild is misleading. Canucks should have started rebuild in 2013
- VANTEL



Full rebuild with the Sedins in the line up.

Give them all a participation ribbon, that way the snowflakes won't get upset by a clear winner.

I haven’t watched Podkolzin play much, but when I have, he’s been just ok. I’d like so see him against NHL competition.

You got to get over it dude, you aren't getting a ribbon. Time to man up.

The Sedins were the main reason they remained competitive and not drafting high , not to mention the boatload of prospects and draft picks they could have had.

Saying you wanted a full rebuild and wanting to keep the Sedins is like saying you are going on a diet and sitting down and eating a 14 pound turkey by yourself. With Gravy.

1 out of 3 people think that Hoglander will make the NHL this season.

Six first round picks under Benning, the seventh was traded away for Miller, of those six, he’s knocked three out of the park and three he’s completely whiffed on....nothing in between

Needs to get more players into the AHL to develop them, themselves.

1) they couldn’t have been moved as the had full protection and didn’t want to go anywhere.
2) teams have successfully rebuilt with long tenured older players.

Makes sense once ‘full’ is dropped

2014 was an excellent draft, 2015 was good, 2016 was a complete dud which is shameful considering we finished 3rd last, 2017 looks promising, 18-19-20 are still up in the air.

I thought a whiff was someone like Libor Polasek or Patrick White, not players who have over 200 games under their belts.

You keep changing the goalposts almost as bad as the Flames troll earlier today.😆
