The only thing slower and dumber than Defencemen are the Rink Rats. You just happen to be both. Speaking of which, don't you have a tampon machine to refill?

Yup, I'm 6'5 used to be able to hit the ball a mile. Did my shoulder in as well.

In my 30’s consistent 280yds fade.
Usually max out around 15 maybe 20 rounds in a year. Never enough to dial it all in. Just getting all of my game together & the season is over & start anew next season.

A couple of times in the boat. Just started some shore casting last week. It's just starting to pick up. My freezer is still full from the Bamfield trip we took in early June though. We're lucky here by the ocean. The air is still pretty cool in the mornings and nights.

I'm in. I've turned my life around and took all my diversity training plus all my shots and I'm ready to be sensitive to the needs of this ever changing society.

Can't wait to meet all the boys.

And Girls lol

Have we dipped into that bargain bin yet?

If we don’t make any more signings before the preseason, I can definitely see a PTO or two, eg Tyson Barrie.

I don’t see any reason to sign anyone else. Better for the 1st year in ages can accrue LTIR cap.

Cap flexibility for call ups also.

Also can look into the barrel after the season starts if wanting to add.

I did post a CA article on the cap breakdown. Idgaf who likes CA or not. Lol

Obviously not happy with scoring. JR drafted him in PIT. Could be a buy low show me option. Figured they'd spend the money on D.

I don’t see the problem with a PTO.
Nothing to lose giving him a shot vs those trying to make the 6-8 Dman spots.

Competition.
I mean, in an ideal world Podkolzin remembers how to score and earns a bottom 6 spot out the gate, Lekkerimäki proves he can hang with Pettersson in the top 6 and the bottom pair D are solid and dependable.
But that’s a lot of ?s.

I still think we need another middling Dman and forward.
But i see the logic of holding off to potentially add a bigger fish later in the season with accrued cap space.

Meh. Most on here wrote off Boeser and he was our best scorer last year.
Podkolzin can turn it around too imo.

Woo? The guy that stole the dudes rug? Career AHLer.

That’s why I believe we need more help this season.

"The 10th selection was about a scouting consensus. The Canucks could have chosen between those who were still on the board — WHL centre Peyton Krebs, Swedish defencemen Victor Soderstrom and U.S. National Team Development Program winger Matthew Boldy — but they didn’t hesitate to pull the trigger on Podkolzin."
