Or instead of taking a chance that one out of ten may become a bottom pairing guy you could just trade for a guy that’s proven?

Clearly that hasn't been an option for JR & PA. I believe they said it was "difficult to make a deal." They think the RHD is fine with Poolman back, we'll see.

Apparently there's talk of moving QH to the right side.

Perfect another Left Hand shot on D just what we need lol. At least he can skate.

I think it was one of the Nil's b*tches.

.@DhaliwalSports recapping his conversation with Jim Rutherford this morning tells us that Quinn Hughes approached the #Canucks about moving over to the right side.

We have Hughes Myers and OEL. Just need to round it out. All good.

This will be fine in certain situations against certain teams but it would need to be monitored closely. Kid has a great shot I wish he would slap shoot more from the right side. Maybe that's the thought process the Ovechkin zone with the One-T's for top cheese.

Problem solved

Allvin "likes our D now that Poolman has returned". Problems solved.

Maybe, the trade you don't make is the best one.

i'm sure other teams motivation on some of their young D will change throughout the course of the season.

Get ready for a big purchase at TDL for a RHD if the Nucks are in a PO spot. Big. Just warning everyone now it could be an all-in Rutherford Festivus Miracle!!

Rutherford on another possible PTO signing – You never know, we like Chaisson a lot, we talk about him, we like his character and leadership.

Nothing wrong with Chiasson on the cheap. Can play up/down the line up via injuries all good. 13 goals for under 1 mil last year Vintsy would be very proud of this 4th liner. I believe the Nucks will pass around the Brendan Gaunce hat for any 4th liners that get over 10 goals and makes under 1 mil per. Gonna be big,

TBL had 3 LHD and 1 RHD in their top 4 and won 2 cups. Just reminding you that a team we envy didn't have 2 righties on their top 4.

Sure if the talent level is there to match. Having a Norris D in Hedman helps lol. It is nice to have the option of a great right hand shot on D even a few of course. Especially on PP. Opens up so many opportunities and we technically haven't had a great one here since Salo. Which Sucks.

This fanbase cracks me up. So used of mediocrity,they think Sami Salo was a good defenseman.

Can't make this stuff up.
