I bought one year when they were the Utica Comets it was 69.00 a year I never renewed the second year.

That's a good price if you'll watch even a 1/2 the season. I struggle to watch the Canucks many nights because the games start so late or I'm working. I still pay for the NHL package, and I pay another $200 for DAZN so I can watch the Dolphins.

Cue a bunch of you can stream for free posts, but we can afford it so I want a good feed more than I want to save a few bucks.

Such bullpoop.

Everyone can do it who cares. If they wanna fix it just make salary cap count in the playoffs. So easy to do

The only thing I care about them right now is beating the Oilers tonight

There was actually an article on the Athletic today about just that. They're much better primed for success coming from Arizona than they are an expansion team. If you get an owner who will pay for players (which it seems like their owner will), they could augment that team really well. They have a TON of cap space.

Huh.
Interesting.
I should probably subscribe to the Athletic.

It would be interesting to see who would be candidates from each team for an expansion draft

So how good is the coyote franchise set up?
I won’t pretend to be interested enough to follow them.
I’m just wondering how the Utah yetis would compare to an expansion draft and all the perks that go with it.

- dbot


They have deep pockets and primed to spend on FA and give up all those ton of picks for players. So maybe sell on some Canucks? Hronek?

Not breaking any rules.

To a lesser extent Canucks are doing it also. All LTIR players are coming back ready for game one.

- VANTEL


The Canucks did not LTIR anyone to circumvent the cap. Also they won’t have any players out until the playoffs ready for game one. Demko is only player that was on LTIR and that was to allow for extra call ups. Yes he will be back with couple games left but it was not kept out to allow to add players for playoffs.

I see you're making friends in the comments section again
- golfingsince


Dude he’s a troll. Everyone hates him like a couple others. Unlike the praises other trolls get here lol. On a sparsely commented blog he got 3 downvotes and I got 2 up votes for calling him out on his trolling. This time for Mynio. Kids a junior made his AHL debut against a top team. That’s pretty good.

I felt after a few games I was bored so did not renew. Unless there is a core you are following on there you lose interest. I viewed it back when Lind was a top player.

Tochett said about a week ago that Canucks were making a cap managing injury move to accommodate the cap.

He said that about Demko who was already on IR. It was a paper move on a existing injury. We all saw Demko get injured and leave the game. No capspiracy. It was simply to fit in a call up. It has nothing to do with burying cap until the playoffs start.

Yeah, there's a clear difference between using as intended and cap circumvention

If you want to save money, the strat is to subscribe, then once a year try to cancel your subscription and they'll offer you a discount to keep your sub. Repeat until they don't offer, then cancel your sub and sign up again when they offer a discount and repeat. I've paid like 20 bucks a year as long as I've had it

I use it so little that I'm not willing to pay $70 a year for it

It was another miracle of God that Soucey magically healed on the exact day that Myers got injured and Demko got injured on the exact day that Myers was ready to return.

I never said he didn't have a pulled groin or knee problem, I am just praising the lord that Myers was miraculously ready to return on the exact same day. Canucks would never take advantage of the Cap. Only Vegas and TB do that.

Yes, Soucy, Myers, Demko were all held back so they could fit Baines' cap hit for 2 games.

The mighty Oilers are losing to the future Utah whatever’s, where’s that mouthy trash talking kid? Let’s hope I didn’t jinx it.
