I'll see what the team looks like opening night. There are lots of things I have liked and disliked about what the team has done. I don't make the decisions. So i just speculate ways that they can work.

Why did he blow last year? He is a nice kid and it sucks what he went through but this isn’t a one off brutal season. I dont understand the continual excuses for players that were drafted by this team.

I know you will spout off on your views on analytics and WAR.

But you are sort of just flat out wrong

Just seen they re-signed Boeser, leaving them with just over 2 million in capspace, only 10 forwards signed.
Someone has to go, unless New Jersey was insisting on Brock being resigned.

Go Allvin Go.

5.6 in cap space for 2 players I think they can find two more forwards for that.

This is bull sh!t. Brock the 30 goal scorer! News flash, his best season was his first and he has been crashing ever since. His best season was 29 goals. He is gifted soft minutes on the first line and PP. a soft 20 goal scorer that can’t drive play is not worth $5MM let alone $6.65.

I'm not trying to convince you to like the guy, or like the type of player he is if it isn't your type, but Brock, since being a canuck, was never even close to being part of the problem, as he was and always has been part of the solution.

Good thing you didn't post Jfresh. He might have rage quit.

Unless Alvin goes out and trades for reeves and macdermid and those thug types, the Canucks aren't going to suddenly get tougher. It's going to take years to find a balance between actually being good again and being tough. It's going to be an ugly few years I think

Too bad we couldn't draft a Lidstrom. Has to be one out there.

Absolutely, another few years of watching them get b*tch slapped. Rely on the refs because currently no one has the ability/balls/desire to defend their teammates.

“Jim Rutherford on Brock Boeser signing : A good compromise was made by both sides. This negotiation was hard, you had the qualifying offer, it was hard to find a middle ground but we did and we are very happy. Émilie Castonguay did a really good job for us.”


I really thought he was a goner because of his lack of foot speed, given Rutherford’s comments about team speed, but happy that he’s still a part of the Canucks.

Great pick by Benning and company!!
