Ok this is gonna be fun

Madden 2nd 4th I believe for Toffoli
Toffoli walks signs for 4.25

Beagle Roussell loui and the 9th overall for
Larson and Garland at 5 mill wtf

Virtanen signed last year bought out
Holtby signed last year bought out
Schmidt signed last year traded


Now in all honesty outside of Buffalo and Arizona is there any team in the league run worse than the Vancoucer Canucks. Just wow

You'd have to get Lou pretty damn drunk

Any means possible, so that would include the dreaded offersheet.
Just saying.

Hamhuis was a big Christian as well, but yet he was well liked. Dougie might be one of those pushy ones who tries to convert his teammates, why else is he about to join his 3rd team at the age of 28 despite being regarded as a top 10/top 15 dman? Just seems odd that the Canes aren't jumping through hoops to keep him

Dougie completly dictated his trade from the bruins, not the other way around. I don't know the backstory behind the Flames trade, but I feel like they majorly lost that trade lol.

The canes also lost their future number one goalie cause he wouldn't accept 1.5 million aav. They are trying to figure out their future and their direction, so I'm not surprised.

I wouldn't buy into all that gossip regarding his faith and religion. All we know is he wasn't a super big team function guy outside or work, and I don't think that's a bad thing. If the guy likes libraries instead of movies and drinks, let the guy be a nerd.

Would probably want to get EP/Hughes locked up to avoid the eventual revenge OS. Boeser probably gets one next year as retaliation then

While all those things are true, painful to have watched, and incredibly costly, the actual team now ain’t bad. How it got there…not pretty.

Hi, my name is player X and I play for your Canucks, today I would like you to come on over to this business(owned by Aquilinis) and get a signed shirt when you buy item Zed.

Pops wants the Cup.

Badly.

Edit; Obviously these players get paid nicely for the advertising.

Cap circumvention? I doubt the league has a leg to stand on.

They’re not jumping through ropes to keep anyone of quality after trading their best goalie. And someone here said they’re looking at Virtanen and DeAngelo? If Svechnikov was smart, he wouldn’t sign there long term.

Wouldn’t mind seeing the Canucks go cheap on D with guys like Hamonic and Schenn and maybe go after a guy like Danault. Would give the Canucks two legit scoring lines… a world class 3rd line and a competent 4th line.

Miller-EP-BB
Hog-Horvat-Garland
Pearson-danault-podkolzin
Motte-Richardinson-highmore

QH-hamonic
OEL-Myers
Rathbone-Schenn

PP units would be elite, Huge upgrade to the PK, 5 on 5 Horvat would no longer have to match up defensively… which honestly he’s okay at but not elite.

- Mungo


IMHO, Danault doesn't bring any scoring, already have Richardinson as a shut down guy.

I like the '92 Sens expansion draft better than what Francis did this year.

This has been by far the best offseason, in years, and we are concerned about the Kraken expansion team.
I get that these moves are Benning mistakes, but, for crying out loud, Nate Schmidt is gone.
That is cause for a couple months of praise for Benning.

Never doubted any of this stuff. Even knew they would trade for OEL plus Garland.

Jim is actually very predictable.

Before I get to carried away on my celebrating, have I told you about my strong dislike, for Nate Schmidt?
