April Fool's Day ends at noon, so whoever posted the Naslund is an ass.

Makes sense for a ton of reasons... Unfortunately I think we'll see Raymond blossom in SJ, but that's the way it goes.

I've never seen a team play along the boards as much as the Canucks do. Every line does exactly the same thing.

Made a solid play at the line, as well. You take the good with the bad—can say that about the majority of Canucks D this season.

Yup, it would be nice if the lines mixed it up instead of dump and chase, then cycle. Very little to nothing off of the rush right now and they never take advantage of a counter attack opportunity, like on a two-on-two they'll dump it in and change instead.

It wasn't exciting enough to be classified boring.


This team is a well refined scoring machine

Not the typical SJ-VAN game. No coincidence that all the games seem to be more boring this year, the Canucks are the ones making it boring.

I think Jensen is going to be just fine with some seasoning. He's a quick thinker when the puck is on the move. He'll come around if he's still a Canuck next season.

I wish so much that Schroeder had as little as a couple more inches and 10 pounds on his frame. The rest of his game is such a tease. If only he was related to Tanev and grew a foot late in his teens...

I took a dump over Chicago on my way to Mexico. I double flushed just to make sure the burbs got a little too. Didnt want to miss your trailerpark.

Just kidding. I didnt poop for the first three days of the trip.

Agreed about Jensen, you can tell he's smart and everyone know he has the talent to be a top 6 forward, plus a good size/speed combo. Agree about Schroeder, his size and faceoffs are an issue but the rest of his game looks good, I would like to see some better finish from him though.

Hahaha....flooded goalie market now. Who wuldda thunk other aging GT's with better contracts would show up at the TDL and in the summer leading up to a significant cap reduction? I know I did.... but not Gillis according to stuff he kept saying in interviews.

Well played again Gillis. Hey Gillis...want to play poker...please.

Luckily this can be worked on and improved. He was better in the circle last game.

Unfortunately not much to do about is size. Definitely see what Booner means, though—for a small guy, he wins a surprising amount of battles along the boards. If only he had size as an advantage, as well.

Got a good poker face—lacks all emotion and has no personality, and pretty much sweats profusely all the time.
