I am old. I have an excuse.

I am not cranky. I am actually laughing at all the chest beaters today. One thing I have learnt over the years is all of HB has a lot people that think they know more than everyone. They are not involved in professional hockey at all but legends in their own mind.

Some of them even think they know better without looking at stats!

Has anyone ever told you that you are the Cammi Granato of Hockey Buzz. In other words no one would miss you if you didn't show up.

Sometimes you need to use your head.

Do you think if Canucks felt there was a legit top six forward sitting in Abby that he would not have been called in prior to PDG's injury.

- VANTEL

You are the only person talking about a legit top 6 in Abby.

I said I'd like to try some to see if there is one there before spending a lot of assets for one that is probably rental and most likely a very high price.

And you are the only one suggesting for the Canucks to experiment with the top six from the farm in the middle of competing for a playoff spot.

Because we all come to a hockey forum not to discuss hockey, but because we want to be wanted

You want so badly to hurt my feelings, I really don't get it

Yeah, more than anything it's just nice to know he's not stagnating, especially since the SHL is tougher to follow from NA

Having Samuelsson around I feel like is helping his all around game.

Probably because you didn't check your expected stats first so someone could explain to you.

They have been experimenting all season and they are 3rd in the league.

The #Canucks have been one of the better teams against teams in the top half of the league this season, while also beating up on the bad ones.

Kings have a pretty tough time against the good teams though πŸ‘€

Ouch

Why are you always trying to hurt me.


I mean it in the most friendliest way possible . No one cares.


Taking a six month vacation from assh0les like you seems like I should be getting praise not disapproval.

Not super surprising, but I suppose the argument would then be that the sample size is too small for the Canucks

Surprised and not at the same time. I thought Washington might take a stab at him.

Good job to stop up in front of the net and get into a scoring position.

What is even funnier is how some seem to think this team has actually won something, while only playing less than half a season. Even funnier than that is people believing that this is almost the identical team as last season, when they have added a decent back-up goalie, 5 new defensemen, and 3 contributing forwards.
- Reubenkincade

Counting is hard, I'll give you that! We added 3 defensemen, 3 forwards and a goalie. And one of those was just added a month ago. Which means 2/3rds is the same team, led by the same core(yes, the same one you poop on with many others). We haven't won anything, but this is clearly a playoff team and a much better core group of players than you and many other posters were claiming ad nauseum.

I don't run the team. I would try some players to see how they do from Abby. Again, I don't make the decisions, that's up to Tocchet who plays with who. I never said they had a legit top 6 player, I said I would like to see if they have one or not. Like they have done with Hoglander/PDG. If none work out, then use assets to acquire a more legit top 6.

Also I know that you believe there is no one in Abby that is better. Shockingly, I don't share that opinion with you.

- manvanfan

I'm ok if they do add, but realistically getting in to the playoffs is good for this year. The idea of spending a bunch of assets in the first year of our window seems a bit rushed imo. They need to get experience, play and win/lose in playoffs and then grow. Enjoy the ride, but I doubt they change too much as Rutherford has stated "our window is just opening"
