I was talking about the Canuck picks, sorry I missed an additional 4th, the draft looks much more enticing now.

Well, taken 8 games but finally the players are standing for each other. It's a good look for Pearson/Miller to step up and Bo as well sends a positive message through the room. Hoping for more of the same tonight. Go Nucks! - LordHumungous
How about that Schenn penalty in the first, McCann even looked surprised it got called lol, how many times have we seen that, took the physicality right out of the game from the nucks persective. But they can receive an elbow to the head that no one seen lol

you mean when Schenn came out of the box and levelled someone?
Or when Burroughs was throwing haymakers at Geekie?
Canucks outhit the Krak 2:1
Took a idiot friend from Toronto out for dinner a few years ago and when they served him a Salisbury Steak he demanded they take it back because it wasn't a steak it was a hamburger patty. I was laughing but let him argue and argue that he "knows what a Salisbury is and this aint it"....
Another night he ordered his pork chop medium rare. They said they were not allowed to do that... he argued all restaurants serve steaks any way you want them.
It is funny though. A top 5 team in the league(by win%) this year and last year, just acquired a draft pick from us.
They have their own picks in every round next year, minus a 3rd, but they have a 3rd from Philly and extra 5th/6th from Van/Chi.
They also have an extra 2nd in 2024 from Philly too.
All while also having a deeper prospect pool than the Canucks.
Canucks meanwhile are down a 2023 5th, a 2023 7th, and a 2024 2nd
They have an extra 2023 4th from New York
It's a demoralizing comparison. - Nucker101
Canucks don’t want to rebuild they want to make the playoffs. None of their moves were selling. To be demoralized thinking this team is well stocked to sell assets for picks is setting yourself up for disappointment.
This is a team full of holes. Canucks trying to plug what it can and stay in the fight. That’s their reality.

Bear was quite decent in EDM for a time actually but did turn into a bit of a turnover machine his last year there. Hoping he is past all that and can be some solid help back there. He didn't get a full fair shake in EDM IMO. - LordHumungous
Didn't get a fair shake in CAR either after Covid caught him
