Thanks Carol, love the prospect updates. Benning's prospects are just so much more exciting than Gillis's ever were.

Desjardins on Pedan as D/LW: "It gives you more of a chance to stay with us if you can do both. He’s auditioning a bit for that." #Canucks

maybe play him more than 5 minutes a game, especially when there are injuries...

Phenomenal guitar player, would love to see Joe live...my sister in-law new boyfriend watched him live at Royal Albert Hall, so we had the smart TV playing the youtube video of it last weekend.

Good gift, thanks for sharing

Auditioning a bit = 5 mins

He just announced another NA tour but the only west coast dates are in LA and San Diego, hoping he extends the tour like usual.

I feel better about using Pedan as a forward over Weber personally. not sure how everyone else feels.
However, with JV back, he shouldn't need to play i would guess.

I want to point out there is a big difference between tanking and bandwagoning .

A Tank fan wants a higher draft pick.

A bandwagoner comes in when things are good and leaves when things go bad. Like when Nucker left when things went south. Him going to the Flyers and cherry Picking a team on the rise is what a bandwagoner does and it got him his new name Phucker.

I suggest to avoid confusion in the future we start calling bandwagon jumpers Phuckers.

No more saying You Useless Bandwagoner , you call them You Useless Phucker. No more you're a horrible badwagoning fan , you say you are a horrible phucking fan

WD should tread lightly when talking about auditioning for positions

I would have liked a little more chance to evaluate, his speed down the wing took one defender by surprise, but other than that there wasn't much to see wing wise.

Agreed, Willie is really starting to piss me off. Pedan should be getting 10-15 minutes per game

I can understand trying to win, but down two forwards, you'd think he could have had Pedan out there a bit more.

Ya. I like his physicality in general, I guess my feeling is we need secondary scoring and that type of project is probably not the answer. Definitely is fast for a bog fella though.

He did win back to back games against contenders, given they were close games I think it's fairly justifiable.

Simmonds with his 29th goal today, B. Schenn has 25, all that for Mike Richards. I know they won two Cup but Richards was their fourth line center the last one.

Holmgren makes some good trades. No doubt.

He got Voracek for Carter and a pick too right?
If this team ever gets good defensively it could be scary.

They have great prospects for D . They are going to bring up Provorov Morin and Sanheim next year

Canucks should trade with these guys

8th overall, they selected Sean Couturier.
