I'm with Telus Optik TV and those channels don't exist. Flyers are my second favorite team.

Then it would be NHL1 and NHL2 for you.
1 month only according to LC but still nice to watch eastern teams.

Actually only a couple of weeks, I think it lasts until January 31st but I could be wrong. Either I'll take it.

You have to have NHL Centre Ice somewhere on your dial. Keep looking.

Apparently it's blocked here for whatever reason, I've went through Center Ice 15 times and still can't find it. It's on NBC but it's blocked.

Ahhhhh hockey.

I feel like an addict who's just found a syringe in the dumpster.

I feel so dirty yet oh so satisfied.

I'd rather have B Schenn, I like his game a little more...a bit more edgy!!

No argument from me there.

Hossa looks like he's recovered.

Chicago is absolutely working over LA. 4-0.

I don't really follow AHL or CHL, I just remember how dominant he was during the playoffs, which was really impressive. I don't remember Kassian during the playoffs, did he even get in a game? Schroeder... hasn't had a chance yet.

Booner keeps harping on the Schroeder OR Vandermeer, but I don't think it was ever a choice between the two. If Schroeder was here he'd be sitting in the press box because AV wanted Ebbett, how does that help our offence?
- 1970vintage

Why cant Schroeder play forward instead of Vandermeer? Are the bottom six players Gillis brought in not good enough to beat Vandermeer out of a spot? Is that what's keeping our prospects down? Av's constant issue of (frank)ing up the 4rth line? Isnt Kassian going to be on the ice a hell of a lot more than Vandermeer for protection? Lappy fights, Volpatti fights, Weise fights... it's not like Vandermeer is a much better fighter.

Av says we are going defense because of the lack of scoring. Why? He's the one keeping offense out of the line up and no one else. Think about it.. it's about AV's prefered coaching style. He won the war of attrition with Gillis over the kind of hockey the Canucks are to play. Gillis has completely given in...he's not the same GM who came in here guns blazing boldy pushing this team to be a contender. He's very complacent in letting AV's experience dictate the roster. He's ok with which ever way his team is coached... he's ok with recycling AV's old excuses. If AV survives another GM change, I'm following CDC out the door... I've never felt this way over 20 something years of following this team... high and lows.

Everyone reminds me that AV won the JA and went to a final so goodluck replacing him. Lets look at our last coaches that were not good enough... Crawford- Jack Adams- 1 Stanley Cup. Mike Keenan- 1 Stanley cup and 1 final. There was a couple of quick stop gap coaches between then to replace Pat Quinn-35 game unbeaten streak- 2 finals-2 jack Adams. Even Carlyle who was going to replace Crawford was a former 2 time Norris winner who won a Stanley Cup in his second coaching year. AV's record with a roster like the one he has had over the years doesnt impress me that much when you stand him beside the 3 coaches before him who struggled with rosters built on a non competative eternal salary cap. I'm not saying I would have these coaches on the bench right now...but proping Av's success up only looks goos when he's not being compared to other coaches.

I personally think AV has been responsible for more playoff exits than advances over the years...

Then it would be NHL1 and NHL2 for you.

I found the LA/Chi game but can't find Philly/PIT.

Most fans don't know Sh!t about how a prospect develops into a solid NHL'er, myself included .

Re Schroeder, I still don't see how carrying him as an extra forward helps our offence if he doesn't get in the lineup. He's not going to replace anyone in the bottom 6, and if AV would rather go with Ebbett than Schroeder he's better off playing games in the AHL so that if we have an injury and need to call him up he hasn't been sitting around.
- 1970vintage

100% agreed. Its going to be a sprint out of the gate to start the season.IMO get the best size and experience you can because if we fall behind to much in the standings Kesler and Booth will try to do too much when they come back,and just end up getting injured again.

Don't be an ass. Anybody who's seen enough of his posts is well aware that Booner knows his poop.

If you have a point, try to bring it up in a civil manner.

A little rude but I was a little loose with that comment. I should have said "and I cant even remember his name".

Nice. Got him in my other pool. Good start for me

Mannn... After that 1st round poopshow (brought to you by AV & Bowness), I think I kind of needed that lockout...
