I still don’t know how Buch didn’t get more. I mean I like Sammy Blais too but damn

- Nucker101

Yup.

Of course Canucks dont have a 2nd in this draft.

How those Oilers doing?

It wasn't at all what you are claiming it was. I still think it's tasteless to link passports to having to wear a star in WWII if you were a jew though. More or less the same level of hyperbole that people who constantly yell nazi at what they dont agree with are doing. It's also disrespecting people who died at their hands or the people who fought them.

You really live in a different imaginary world.


Just so everyone here knows, I am now accused of sending out messages to rally the Islanders to gang up on poor Lordy. Also anyone that disagrees with Lordy, whether you live in New Brunswick, New York, Chilliwack, Kitimat, Vancouver, Manitoba, Yukon, anywhere in the world you have been lumped into the Islander label and you receive messages from me to attack Lordy…(frank) me “you can’t make this stuff”, oh well “it is what it is”, “keep on trucking”.

I like that JR is a gunslinger but he doesn't have my trust yet. I see a bad drafting record, but his trade history is debatable . I sort of laugh when I see comments like collecting draft picks when all he did in the last decade was sell sell sell draft picks.

That's because he had,
HOF goalie-Fleury
#1 Dman-Letang
2 HOF C-enters- Crosby / Malkin
and always seemed to surround them with enough talent to win.
So constant win now mode. It will cost them at some point. But 2 Cups and still top tier helps.

It actually can but it is a clean slate. Miller is our best player and moving him can make the forward group inept . Not saying it will but it could. Moving Garland also multiplies it. I like Schenn and Burroughs and the team has really tightened up on goals against.

Hard to complain against the record since Boudreau came here. The comments before were wait and see but the crowd really is anxious to forget about the wait .

I don’t think it can get worse than the previous regime. It goes further than just transactions. It was pathetic leadership with no long term vision and a bunch of poop excuses.

It can go from that to a mediocre/average front office which would suck. I’d like this team to have a front office that other fans envy. Nobody out there was like “damn I wish we hired Benning, or damn maybe we should poach Weisbrod and interview him for GM”. I do see plenty of fanbases wishing they had hired Zito as GM.

Once you get to the point that your staff is being interviewed for higher positions in other organizations, that’s when you’re doing things right.

Look at people salivating over Tulsky, Darche and McFarland.

When I went to school in Victoria I was told constantly by BC locals that I was from Whitehorse. If I corrected them they would say "A colour and a thing, it's basically the same". Our education system is in a sad state

You might need to explain it a few times to the Wood like you had to with Northy...

Yup I do, old poster, but you should be mentioned as integral to the lump on group, my apologizes to not identifying NWT.

BTW, I been to Yellowknife a few times as well as Hay River

schenn has been good (both times he's been here.) i can see why he's getting some trade interest.

i'd trade OEL and/or myers because i think they're actually playing decently right now. it's their contracts and their relative ability to keep up their play that makes me want to trade them.

just like i thought before benning was fired, i think this team is a couple years away. in 2 years, i'd rather be out from under OEL and myers. that's a lot of money to play with.

- RealityChecker




Looking to the future, great minds...

The D is playing well/much better this year. However, most of the team's defenders aren't really "great". Now, they can't all be great, but imagine if the team had a few top tier defensemen. They would look that much better. The GA would probably stay the same, but the ability to get the puck forward, transition, and score would be improved.

I agree – if you can move Myers or OEL (even though they are both playing well right now), you should. Because when they're actually ready to compete, those contracts/players on the downswing are going to be prohibitive to building a better team.
