McDonagh just scored in PO game
- VANTEL

He's got a lot of finish in his game. Three times I got to watch NE play this year. He's not a play driver, he's got no real play making, isn't defensively above average.

He is sort of a passenger who finds pucks and can easily put them past a goalie.

Great skill to have, scoring is hard. He improved his skating. Just would be nice if he would have added another skill to his game over the past couple years.

7th rounder, what am I really expecting from a long shot but still always felt a bit disappointed after watching him play.

He did play quite well though even without a very good center all season.

Read somewhere that he could be a Motte replacement.

I'd go more Highmore then Motte.

That was a disappointing loss! The powerplay was the biggest letdown. They just couldn't get the passes through for the set ups or shots through. They had 3 golden opportunities on the PP and plenty of time 6-on-5. The lack of results at this time of the year are what will cost them a chance in the playoffs.

If we lose on Saturday, it's definitely time to look at trading Garland and Motte. I'm not sold on trading Myers for only cap space, but if there are some assets coming back, I'm open to it. Obviously, if anyone will take Chaisson, Richardinson or Poolman, I'd even be willing to throw in Mason Raymond as a sweetener.

That's why he got a 45 mil signing bonus and only 1 mil in salary.

Booner texted me and he is definitely on the trade Horvat wagon . He would trade him for a third.

So well done Carol you are truly the best on here.

The time is to still believe. As disappointing as being shutout by a bottom-feeding DET club Boudreau's record with the Nucks speaks for itself. Make a run for the WC and if you miss by a few points so be it. A full year under Boudreau will provide excellent results IMO. Not saying we should be full buyers but stay the course and good things will happen.

Go Nucks baby!!

Another player we’re hearing the #Canucks are having discussions about is LW Tanner Pearson, who is in Year 1 of a 3-year, $9.75M contract. He also owns a NTC.

Thanks Carol! If Boeser isn’t traded by Monday I’m going to throw lattes all over the ice. Dude is a slug and very overpaid 🤮 (sorry fanboys)

Ty Carol

I believe this team can eke into the playoffs. Enough talent to get it done. I also want to be sellers. Idk how that blend can be accomplished. Sounds contradictory but it’s my want.

20 points in 56 games twice and he wants 3M a season? The cap does go up every year and the cap isn't really the cap anymore. It's more like a really soft LTIR cap.

There's just no way he is worth 3M a season. I'm sure he is looking at something similar to what Colton Sisson's got in Nashville. 7 years 2.857153 AAV.

I'd love to trade Garland for Sissons + a draft pick, he'd make a really good 3C for us, I always wish we took him instead of "Stone Hands" Gaunce.

Is JT Miller not our version of Jamie Benn? He's going to get 9 to 9.5 x 7 and have 2 good years. Trade him now

Markstrom playing tonight, probably means we get Darth Vladar tomorrow. Do you go Halak with the rested team vs Flames and then Demko on the B2B vs Sabres? Need two W

Marky looses in OT, 1-0
