I take a day or two off every other week. Give's me a different insight into the team.

Just like these clowns (analysts) think that Van would be a good place for Eberle. I'm not sure where Van would fit a $6 million contract. One person even listed that Van only had Boeser as the only RW. It's almost as if LE and his $6 million dollar contract for 5 more years has been forgotten about.

While I agree with the sentiment of why the (frank) would we want Eberle, Loui is a LW, not a RW. He plays the right side when with the twins cause Daniel is on the left

39 Days left until the draft. Grab Glass and worry about the D next year.
- VANTEL


Draft days will be our highlights for next couple seasons.

More importantly only 82 more games to go.

Sweet ride, you'll love it.

I picked up an 86 C30 dually on propane on Saturday. My 3yo thinks it's the best.

Back in the Kelly Gruber , Ricky Henderson days

That was 25 years ago. In today's dollars you spent $1000 a night and $500 per ticket.

Red dually with a flat deck. I gotta say, there is something really nice about driving an old vehicle without any computers or electronics in it.

Biega and Megna were the only players on the whole team whose possesion numbers didn't get worse when they played with Sutter

I dont think Sutter is as bad as the advanced stats make him out to be, but I dont understand how he is such an anomaly. He has good speed, a good shot, good faceoff guy, right attitude in terms of work ethic and fearlessness.

He seems like a smart player, but thats the only area that seems immeasurable to explain why he is always losing the shot differential (and making his teammates worse in that regard)

I agree, it really seems like he should be the type to make those around him better rather than worse, he has a fairly complete game

His team mates can't match him in effort?

Im not sure thats the case, he was considered bad by those statistics in Carolina and Pittsburgh.

I do wonder if his mindset as 3C has him thinking defensive all the time, thus tries more often to contain rather than push offensive? Even playing with the Sedin's they said his role was to cover for their slow-asses and be the defensive forward of the trio

Highest paid forward in the league to never score over 40.

He's not a terrible player, soft as butter though, it's just the whole overpayment and stupid comments from Benning. As a proper third line center making 3 million he'd be of excellent value, instead, Benning called him "foundational" and they thrust him into a second line role and gave him a long contract making way too much money.

The optics are poor and Benning again seemingly has poor talent evaluation giving a guy like him money and a role he's not good enough for.

He has scored 40 points . I guess that extra assist takes him from the gallows of hell to hockey stardom.

He has also scored 21 twice in his career.

He was Canucks third highest in goals and tied for 5? in scoring . Meanwhile we spent 20 mil on three top line Swedes to produce 41 goals.

Lets blame the third liner.

He's hardly "the" problem, he is however part of the problem, going forward at least.
