Wish i had your optimism.

Have you seen the remnants of our so-called defense lol?
Surely Jim will fix it up come opening night

It's not optimism - it's basic logic. hodge-podge mediocre defence AT BEST. Eberle's their best goal scorer and a unproven goalies.

Chris Fowler, I've seen him do plenty of tennis tourneys and I believe he covers football as well. Kind of odd they have him running the show

There has to be at least 8 deals to come. The next 10 picks will have to be legit NHL players. They have pretty much used up all the none contract players.

They've assembled their AHL team at this point - but yes, I'm sure there's more to come.

With all these Jones to Chi rumors I think Zadarove will be a Canuck soon

Pre season in Abbotsford vs the Flames the old tenants, I hope we have a good Buzz representation , and maybe Carol will do an autograph session after the game.

Alot of moves yet for Seattle, and a radio guy in Seattle said the fanbase is knowledgeable, have an ownership that's not bent on winning instantly.
He also brought up the 22-23 draft years and said he could see the Krak biding their time and collecting 2022 and 2023 draft picks.
It will cost future's, but right now alot of teams might be willing to gamble on those picks

And they already traded their first 3 1sts.
If they don't win soon it could come back to bite them .

ok

bud this is the one of the saddest lineups I've ever heard of. It reminds me of the throw aways/non playoffs guys that make the World Championship team every April - except about 400% worse. What an absolute dogs&t roster.

I like how a super fan announced a pick. I wonder if he will be a super fan in two months?

Just trade a bunch of their good players before they lose all value and it will be fine.

good don't ever forget this post

I'm sure Borgen, the Fluery twins, Daccord, McCann, Lauzon, Bayruther, Bastian, Blackwell, Twarynski, Pitilick, Quennenville, McDermid, True, Soucy, ind, will all be tearing up the AHL!! I'm sooooo jealous!!! the grass is greener!!!

This is a Canucks fans reality, we lose Lind ,after initially protecting him, he scores 30 goals in the next 2 seasons, Edler eventually signs with Seattle, thereby making it 2 players the Canucks lose to Seattle, then in a preseason game in Washington, Edler accidentally takes out EPs knee on a nothing play .
