Links? I have yet to see one, everything I've seen has them not making the playoffs.

That's because you hate this club no matter what they do lol. Watch a little TSN and SN and pay attention to what they are saying. Sure many have the club as a bubble team which is fine but there are more than a few that have said they can make it in.Here's the link...

Strange. I remember you calling JR a “gunslinger” and he would be trading like mad to put his own stamp on the club.

That's what I recall, too.

Watching Overdrive last week on TSN and the panel they had on said they could make it in mostly for the WC however. I don't believe LA is a lock for third spot IMO.

Lordy guessed correctly on the Miller contract and now he enters every comment section like…

Trade him.
- Reubenkincade


I doubt that in that state they could have traded him for anything more than a late round pick. He’s worth more signed I think. You (and Don) may not like him, but he still has a skill which is valued in the NHL.

They're guessing. Clearly Van is in the mix with about 5-6 other teams.

Of course but obviously many feel the team can move up. Like I said I think 3rd spot is up for grabs after EDM-CGY and you are correct it could literally be 5-6 other teams playing decent Hockey. I still think it will be a fun year regardless.

They might make the playoffs, they might not. Covering all your bases, like betting on every team to win the cup.

Every Canuck season injuries have a huge effect. Every single season. The Canucks are an NHL outlier when it comes to injuries. The one exception was the year they make the cup final. I believe their 2010/11 season had the least man games lost in their history.

I’m not a Gillis fan but at least his management team recognized this to be a major factor in Canuck’s lack of success and installed personnel to try and deal with it.

It’s a cliché to say “depth” but for the Canucks abnormal injury issues, it’s paramount.

*yawn* just like those whom profess that they know all, you are all the epitome of Canucks management, the exact same BS complaints, the exact same I know better than all.

Great new management team, great new player additions, glad Boeser and Miller signed, excited for the new season to start…

lol I stayed away from NFL this weekend but made out good with the Mariners sweep.

Many Jays fans at work owe me big time lol. Made out with some beer too.

Swings are down with Horse racing however. I was up big a few months back now just breaking even. Took a bath at Woodbine Saturday and Sunday didn't cash one f'n ticket lol

Getting to the point now at Woodbine where the jockeys want to make a little 'extra' lol so there are a few 'funny' races...
