I don't want anyone who has any kind of history with the Canucks to be hired for any management position, but that is never going to happen.

But but, the organization has such an amazing history. Why would we look elsewhere?

Dallas has had 19 of their 51 games go to OT this season and have lost 13 of them. That's an extra game and a half of ice time.

That's a bottom 6 that combined makes less salary than LE.

The “media” keep saying 8 regulars out of the lineup and this is what we get, but really who’s out?

Petey
Sutter
Beagle
Roussel
Motte

They’ve got Lui on the Taxi Squad and they have left Bärtschi in the minors all season. And even though none of us ever want to see them at least they are NHL depth players.

They can’t complain that Boyd, Highmore, Veesseey aren’t quality depth guys, and Grey-O-Vac looked decent in limited time last year.

This is the quality depth they put together. 🤷‍♂️

Let the battle for next years bottom 6 begin!

I’m hoping Boyd could be our 4c next year.
Still don’t know what to think of Highmore. Beyond his marketing potential

He wouldn't have moved the needle here if he signed, as he didn't when he played here. He should have been shopped at the deadline, but here we are again.

I agree, he’s no Schmidt!

Nothing against Boyd, but if they sign him sooner than 10 days after free agency begins I will drive over to Vancouver and poop on Benning’s doorstep. That will, I’m sure, qualify as essential travel.

There will be so many “Boyd’s” available it isn’t even going to be funny. Plus there’s the little nugget of Beagle still being on the books and we definitely don’t want to push him up the lineup.

I guess it depends how you look at it, some may find it entertaining and others may find it embarrassing.

In which period will the coach tell his guys that they have to complete five passes before they are allowed to shoot?

If it's embarrassing for Aquilini then I'm entertained.

lol

agreed.

The 'hope' is that he can show he belongs as a 4C, Beagle is gone, he signs for cheap.
If not, no big deal.

Vessey hasn't impressed, Mackewan seems easily replaced as well.
Hawryluk too.
Graovac should be in the AHL
