If Toffoli really wanted to stay, why wouldn't he take a one year deal or something or wait for more than 3 days.

Probably talked to Miller and decided to bolt lol

Yet we have more wins

The funny thing is also if Holtby and Schmidt continue to suck one of them will be gone in the E draft.

- VANTEL

Schmidt is the best overall Dman Canucks have right now.

I think the same can be said of Tanev Flames will protect Hanifan, Rasmus, have to protect Gio

Btw 25 has 2 shutouts, better gaa, better save % more wins............

There’s also games played but if it makes you feel better just keep drinking the bullish!t

Games played? So you think a team that is playing at a 40% success rate will win three of it's next four to pull one win ahead?

The funny thing about Tanev and Markstrom is they will play well enough to distract you as you win absolutely nothing

They renewed my membership without asking and I had to write them to tell them no thanks not this year. I got my money back yesterday.

This was a good article about the Habs situation but mostly Danault. He is currently their first line center and reportedly turned down 6 years @5 mil per in Sept by the Habs. He said he wanted a fair offer.

With all the contracts Habs took on this year they have maybe painted themselves into a corner. They are going to lose a key player or two in this offseason and Price and Weber are a year older .

They will trade his rights for a 4th.

Half that team is actually Van prospects now. Whether they play the same team 14 times each, it would have been nice to see them gel together.

They have Phoeling and Evans.

Also to answer your question before about Zhukenov. I have no idea why but Russians are indefinite.

I heard it is a 24 game schedule and they are playing Rochester and Syracuse 16 times of the the 24 games.

I am interested to see Lind Lockwood and Mikey mostly.

These divisions are a bit weird.

Focht, Woo also would be nice to see how they do coming-out of a shortened WHL season. I don't expect much but with slim roster, they will be playing no matter what it seems.

J-Pat,

Aside from Hamonic, the team is healthy, this is your team. "Structure has gone to hell"

I don't know.

I liked him at prospect camp 2 years ago. Big guy, skates well, not afraid to use his size and always hard on the forecheck but his numbers this year took a huge dip even though Flint got much better.

Canucks have space for contracts. See how his 24 game stint goes I guess.

Same thing happened last season just not at over a goal per game.

Hamonic is better than Benn is.

100%

I feel like Nucks fans were spoiled by Petey because it didn't really happen for him but sophmore slumps are fairly common. Not insanely surprised Hughes hasn't been quite as good this year.

It's a nice change with the elements Hogs brings...but ultimately Miller should be on PP1. He's off a bit now but it will come.
- LordHumungous

True, its a really tough argument to say he shouldn't be. I still would rather him be in front and Boeser opposite of Pettersson on the wings. A guy with Boeser's shot would be a threat worth watching from any PK unit

Nobody is playing 100% right now probably but he looks hurt. I noticed in a few board battles, he gave a little bit extra last night and won them but it was usually after he had to do some damage control from being too soft.
