Walker was a tool from day one.

Yup.

Just heard on CBC that Canada might allow a 7 day quarantine for nhl players, due to the amount of testing the nhl does.

No excuses now.

I can't see FA saying he can't trade pending UFA's or deadweight contracts. I'd surmise he's being told he can't bring in new money or maybe make trades involving core players.

this may come out of left field, but I think Nate Schmidt has been the best overall D-man on the Canucks this year. Has he contributed the same way Hughes has, absolutely not, but I think defensively he has been much better, and much better defensively than every other Dman who has played.

You are right. Smart fans understand. Blaiming shmidt on this trash team is next level stupid. Whole lot of problems before Schmidt

Brough and Halford who I have only listened to twice, are much better than Walker is. Not sure why they thought a Toronto guy like Walker would be a good fit here in Vancouver.
- Reubenkincade


Walker is/was a bit of the Shock Jock type - not quite Howard Stern - but he says stuff to elicit an emotional response. I don’t mind him, though he was always a bit too positive for my liking.

Wasn’t Schmidt supposed to be an upgrade on Tanev and Stecher combined?

I don’t mind him personally, but I always though he was a minor upgrade.

Schmidt is meant to be an upgrade on Tanev. He's been good, we've missed tanevs defensive ability with hughes. Hughes best partner this year has been Hamonic, a poor man's Tanev. I think the biggest issue is Myers taking on so many minutes, he simply can't handle big time lines/players. Need an upgrade on the roght side, maybe pay Seattle to take Myers. I'd like Hamonic back around his current price. Myers is simply very overpaid, i think you could pay less for better, or go hard at Ellis.

Christian Wolanian on waivers. Might as well keep plucking.

No worries, I just found it hilariously ironic that the sentence using the term, "next level stupid", started with two blatant spelling mistakes.

Good brain flex there Champ.

According to at least one person on here, points percentage is unreliable

Doesn't look like Tanev's replacement has helped improve the team. I would say they have actually regressed from last season.

Moneypuck has the Canucks with 3.4% probability of making the playoffs. Bottom six are:
Buffalo — 0%! (Are they mathematically eliminated already?)
Det — 0.3%
Ana — 0.3%
Ott — 0.7%
Van - 3.4%
NJD — 3.5%

Finishing 24-26th seems the most likely based on how the standings are shaping up.
4 Games remaining against Ott.
