Very

Bringing back a 36 year old with nine goals is beyond dumb.

You don't build a winning team by hanging on to old men past their prime.

I get Burrows decision not to waive but enough is enough.

I hope Benning is taking this all in with the NTC/NMC bad bad bad,

Never give out any type of NTC that is more than 10 teams they can say no to.

Time to move on, hopefully like the twins will the year after. The only use we would have for Burrows would be signing hockey cards at the alumni games.

Idk. I say LE is more about ugly goals & rebounds in the dirty areas.
Cycling is not really suited for him so if not driving the net he's net front presence parking his ass to screen goalies.
Type of scorer that needs to be shoot 1st when the chance. One year under his belt soon & will adapt much better for next season is my prediction. He ups his goal production & we find another 25-30 goals from D & new blood would be my goal if I were JB. Could that be BB doing most of it? Time will tell.

Yep. I think LE will be better next season potentially with Bo or maybe even a new coach/structure. Eriksson has never performed all that well his first season with ANY team…I'm willing to be patient here. He was good on the big ice with Sedins in international play but the smaller NHL surface doesn't really suit his game with the Sedins. and yes like most players on the Nucks he needs to shoot more.

Eriksson is quickly becoming one of my most hated Canucks in History and there is a long list of Swedes already on that list.

Just as we were coming out of those bad contracts. That was a fail for JB.

Same but if he sucks goat balls by next December then get Brian Burke's uber to drive him to the airport.

I will be truthful it pisses me off that we have to wait another year with the Twins next year. I think it is a terrible idea to miss out on another high end pick as they keep us competitive. Our players get one more year older as we play to pay respect to the Sedins.

For sure he won't have any more than a few months to really get going next year. I think he'll be ok. Boeser here and maybe a move for another 20 goal guy to round things out…the line combo's should be damn interesting to be sure.

Even if he does suck at December what can you do? NMC

I hope Daniel gets his #1000, and they sail off into the sunset after next season.

trust in JB to figure something out

- VanHockeyGuy

I honestly don't care about the #1000 . Seems like a hell of a waste of a year if the guy comes back and scores it 2 weeks in next year.

I would hope if there was a team that was willing to take them that we would move them but we know that is a dream.


Not Angry just thinking I will be glad when this franchise stops screwing up and does things like normal franchises.

Loose the bad deals and rebuild properly, keep our fingers crossed for a top 5 pick, the second from Columbus and some timely deals from JB.

From what I gather:
Arizona
Colorado
Edmonton
Toronto
Calgary


Unsure about Las Vegas and Winnipeg

The Canucks are better than the Oilers and Flames?

Ok

Even if he does suck at December what can you do? NMC
- VANTEL

Waive him.

Waive him.

Honestly that might be the best option


But unfortunately he has NMC

were in 28th place this morning...with the Sedins keeping us competitive. Have no fear...1oa is a very real possibility for us next season with them still here

Ok

Flames yes…Oilers no.

I am just so Goddamned bored with their style

Red doesn't come here to much now. Now that there is more than a five point separation Flames fans don't want to bother with the riffraff of league anymore

Oh yeah....but their inferiority complex with us is in overdrive.

He pops in when the Flames win once in awhile. Don't see him much when they are losing.

You and me both...I'm not convinced the team would be less competitive next year if the twins left and we called up another line from Utica

That one player can make all the difference. You get him and then start surrounding him with talent.....Bobs yur uncle.

Sad state of affairs for this team when a big player makes a big hit and fights and that is what we will be talking about for the next four months .

We have so little to celebrate
